Działalność edukacyjna sióstr dominikanek w Wielowsi w II połowie XIX wieku
The teaching at the Dominican Sisters’ elementary school in Wielowieś (1861-1918)

Summary/Abstract: The Congregation of the Sisters of Saint Dominic was founded in Wielowieś, Galicia, in 1861. Simultaneously with the foundation of the Congregation, the sisters started their apostolic service of teaching in the school in the village of Wielowieś. At first it was a parochial school, then it became a private elementary school by the monastery. In 1889 it was turned into a public elementary school. The article shows the changes in the school curriculums, which were caused by the transformations of school status (from private to public, and then from two-class to three-class school) and by the revision of the educational law in Galicia. The paper also attempts to depict the methods adopted by the sisters to teach different subjects, including enumeration of the textbooks used in the process of teaching.
