Śląska barokowa Litania o św. Barbarze, Pannie i Męczenniczce
subject
Saint Barbaraprayer booklitanyhappy deathdescription
The article was dedicated to one of the prayers – the Litany to Saint Barbara – in a Baroque Polish-language prayer book addressed to this patroness. It was published in Wrocław in 1747 by the Jesuit order for a fraternity dedicated to Saint Barbara, who was then treated as the patron of a happy death. This confraternity was established in Tarnowskie Góry as the third one in Upper Silesia. However, for the recruitment of members from various regions of Silesia and the fi rst binding of the brotherhood to the mining community, he is given pioneer signifi cance. The booklet is unique, because only one copy has survived, which is now the property of the Society of Enthusiasts of the Tarnogórska Land.
