„Widać z listów, że nas kochasz [...]”. Portrety kobiet w świetle korespondencji rozproszonej rodziny kresowej (1845–1877)

Abstract

The correspondence of the Doliński/Łazarowicz clerical family kept in the Lithuanian Historical Archives in Vilnius, was the most important and often the only form of communication for its members for decades. The article analyzes letters written by: Tekla Melania Łazarowicz (1820–1897), Aleksandra Natalia Antonina Mongin (1814–1888), Eufemia Antonina Symonowicz (1816–1896) and Tekla Symonowicz (1838–1900). Letters are the basis in scratching four portraits of these polish women from administrative intelligence families living in Lithuanian-Belarusian lands in the nineteenth century. Being written for many years correspondence is a reflection of their everyday life, fates and lifestyle.
