Między wiarą a wiedzą. Zainteresowanie księcia Hieronima Floriana Radziwiłła naturą i medycyną

Abstract

Without a doubt, prince Hieronim Florian Radziwiłł (1715–1760) belonged to a group of the most picturesque personalities of the north-eastern territories of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. In the present article, an attempt has been made to present in more detail the collection of natural objects gathered by Hieronim Florian Radziwił which constituted, at least in part, a fragment of his wider collection of cabinet of curiosities; an attempt has also been made to present the prince’s interest in topics associated with medicine.
