The establishment of Latin Christianity in Poland had a profound impact on its development and this is the subject of the present volume. The articles range from surveys tracing the main phases of this evolution and the Church?s expansion between the 10th and the 16th centuries to particular studies of parish organisation and the role of the monastic orders - above all the Mendicants whose importance Professor Kloczowski considers has been much underestimated. In addition he has also been concerned to relate developments in Poland to those in the neighbouring parts of east-central Europe in Bohemia Hungary and later in Lithuania and to trace the ties linking the area with the West and especially with Italy.
