Duchowość pasyjna w kręgu ksieni Magdaleny Doroty Daniłowiczówny (ok. 1607–1687)

Abstract

[Passion spirituality in the circle of the abbess Magdalena Dorota Daniłowiczówna (ca. 1607-1687)]

Religiousness related to the Passion was developing particularly in the monastic circles and included practicing various forms of godliness, amongst others, handwritten and printed reflections. The 1641 translation of the Meditation on the Holiest Wounds of our Saviour from Italian was dedicated to the Lviv abbess of the Benedictine Sisters, Magdalena Dorota Daniłowiczówna. The article, in the context of the Passion spirituality of the convent, analyzes the content of the text and possible circumstances of its creation as well as points to the references of the text to the character of abbess’ activity and her piety. It also points to the brotherly references of the unanalyzed manuscript, currently stored in Saint Petersburg.
