Description:
This article focuses on the issues concerning the bindings of books that formed the book collection of the Gniezno canon Stanisław Grot. The identified section of the collection that belonged to Grot amounts to forty five old prints. All volumes discussed in the article come from the Archdiocesan Archives in Gniezno. The bulk of the canon’s library comprises books on canon and secular law and on sermons. The bindings of these old prints are predominantly made of planks or cardboard and light vellum (hide) that had been additionally embellished with ornamentation. Undoubtedly, the bindings made according to the traditional craft of German Renaissance bookbinding and with a framework composition are in preponderance. A sizeable number of bindings feature clearly Counter-Reformation setting with religious symbolism that is clearly Counter Reformation in purpose and with the monograph IHS. As it has been revealed from the analysis of the watermarks, the canon used the binding services of not only local book binders, but also those from the Lesser Poland region.;
Niniejszy artykuł kładzie nacisk na problematykę opraw ksiąg, które znalazły się w kolekcji kanonika gnieźnieńskiego Stanisława Grota. Rozpoznany do tej pory fragment księgozbioru duchownego liczy 45 druków. Wszystkie omówione woluminy należą do zasobu Archiwum Archidiecezjalnego w Gnieźnie. Największą część biblioteki kanonika stanowią druki traktujące o prawie kanonicznym, świeckim oraz kazania. Oprawy tych druków w większości zostały wykonane z desek bądź tektury oraz jasnej skóry dodatkowo pokrytej dekoracjami. Z pewnością przeważają oprawy w typie niemieckiego renesansu o kompozycji ramowej. Sporą część tworzą również oprawy o wymowie kontrreformacyjnej, ozdobione plakietami z monogramem IHS. Jak wynika z badań nad znakami wodnymi, kanonik zaopatrywał się nie tylko u lokalnych introligatorów, ale też m.in. u rzemieślników z Małopolski.
