REPORTS CONCERNING THE DIOCESES OF SAMOGITIA AND LIVONIA FROM THE LATE 18TH CENTURY
The publication is a source edition of the reports made by church authorities and sent to the Roman-Catholic Affairs Department at the College of Justice (Justickolegium) in Saint Petersburg soon after the third partition of Poland. In 1797, this institution issued an order stipulating that bishops in Russia should prepare reports about the state of their dioceses and deliver them until December that year. The current publication presents two of these reports regarding the dioceses of Samogitia and Livonia or, more specifically, the Courland part of the latter, which did not enter the diocese of Mohilev.
The present body of knowledge is insufficient for providing a detailed picture of the visitation and reporting system in the Catholic church soon after the third partition of 1795. These issues require broader examination that goes beyond the scope of this publication.
