Summary/Abstract: In the 1980s, there was an increased interest in the history and broadlyunderstood culture of the Orthodox Church in Poland. Historians usually focusedon the period of 16th–18th centuries. Examples of that are works by TeresaChynczewska-Hennel and Marian Bendza concerning that period, publishedin the 1980s. In the same time, Mirosława Papierzyńska-Turek wrote publicationson the Orthodox Church in the Second Commonwealth.However, research works referring to Polish People’s Republic could onlybe published after the system transformation in 1989. Kazimierz Urban is consideredto be the precursor of research on the history of the Orthodox Churchin Polish People’s Republic. Works by A. Mironowicz and S. Dudra are alsoimportant for the discussed period.In order to thoroughly study the history of the Orthodox Church in PolishPeople’s Republic, archival research is necessary, with special consideration ofthe Archive of Newest Records (Archiwum Akt Nowych), Archive of the Instituteof National Remembrance, and selected regional archives.
