Publications on War Themes in the Publishing Repertoire of the Warsaw Printing House of the Vincentian Fathers

The Warsaw printing house of the Vincentian Fathers was primarily known for its publications devoted to religious and moral themes, but this was not the only area of its activity. In the publishing repertoire of this typography, one can also often find famous and essential texts on wartime themes, diverging from the primary publishing profile of the printing house in question. This article presents preliminary research findings on works dealing with broadly understood wartime themes that the Warsaw Vincentians published. The first research question aims to determine the share of these prints in the overall publishing repertoire of the press. The next issue analyzed is the role of these works in the context of the entire publishing repertoire of the Vincentian Fathers’ typography. The final question concerns the authors’ motivations for printing their works at the printing house discussed. The research was conducted primarily using the analytical-synthetic method and historical bibliology methods.
