The study is based on Ossoliński’s Wiadomości historyczno-krytyczne do dziejów literatury polskiej (Historical and Critical Notes on the History of Polish Literature) and Bayle’s Dictionnaire Historique et Critique (Historical and Critical Dictionary) – works that mark many years oftheir scholarly activity. The comparative method adopted in this paper makes it possible toindicate the shared features of their endeavours: the principles of editing sources (textualcriticism), the form of presenting research results, or the title of the publication. The articleconcludes that Ossoliński clearly modelled his Wiadomości historyczno-krytyczne on Bayle’swork and sheds new light on the reception of Bayle in Poland. It also reinforces the positionOssoliński’s work holds in the Polish textual criticism canon.}, doi = {10.4467/0023589XKHNT.23.007.17410}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/kwartalnik-historii-nauki-i-techniki/article/jozef-maksymilian-ossolinski-pierre-bayle-relacje-zaleznosci-miejsca-wspolne} }
