Między Żurawnem a Wiedniem O potrzebie dalszych badań nad systemem stałej dyslokacji wojska koronnego w latach 1677–1683
From Żurawno to Vienna. About requirement for further studies of military quarters of Crown army in period 1677–1683

Summary/Abstract: In period between two wars against Ottoman Empire (1677–1683) Crown (Polish) troops were stationed in set-up quarters on the Polish-Turkish border. Main idea behind it was to defend new borders – after losing Podolia to Turks – but also to protect civilian population from the troops stationed (and subsequently marching into the theater of war) in other parts of the country. It was the first time when such system of regular military barracks was introduced. Moreover, soldiers stationed there were required to produce food for themselves. Such picture, drawn from the diaries written during the period, require though further confirmation or verification, especially based on further research of the archives in Lviv and Minsk.
