Our Project
Our project is dedicated to the Cardinal Prince Adam Stefan Sapieha. Cardinal Sapieha was born into an illustrious aristocratic family and became an outstanding hierarch of the Catholic Church. Due to his activities and demeanour, in the first half of the 20th century, he was dubbed with the name of “The Great Almoner” and “Prince the Unshaken”. Task number 0046/2019 has been financed within the framework of the project of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education under the title “DIALOGUE” for the term of 2019 to 2020.
OUR MISSION
The source materials collected within the project will aid researchers dealing with contemporary history of Poland, Europe, as well as that of the Catholic Church, and furthermore will continue to popularise the figure of Cardinal Sapieha among historians and people interested in Polish national heritage.
AIM OF THE PROJECT
The project aims at a collection, analysis and publication of several volumes presenting source materials relating to Cardinal Sapieha and showing his impact on religious, social and political life in Poland, as well as presenting the project results during an academic conference planned in Krakow for 2020. Furthermore, selected project results will be presented in the form of an exhibition, and on this website.
