| Summary: | The article discusses a work by Frederic August Schmidt, i.e. the first lexicon of Polish scholars published in the Polish language. The work was issued in 1766 by Michał Gröll in Warsaw. A considerably extended version was released in Lviv in 1846, with an erroneous French date 1766 (correct: 1763) and a German date in 1768. A systematic list of persons which the author refers to as „learned and famous persons” opens with the year 1138. The catalogue includes lay persons and clergymen alike, the latter also including monastic orders. It is the clergy that receives the author’s special attention. |
