Abstract

One of the participants of the 1863 uprising, Henryk Bukowski, who later emigrated and settled down in Sweden, was well-known not only to the Polish expatriate community as a great antiquarian. H. Bukowski is also famous for his great work for the foundation, patronizing and donating the Polish National Museum in Rapperswil, which was not his sole activity. Being a great bibliophile, on every possible occasion he presented many valuable books to different libraries and other institutions in exile and in the country as well. It is known that in the years 1887-1890 The Academy of Science in Cracow received a collection of approximately six hundred books, accompanied by a catalogue prepared by Bukowski himself. It is worth mentioning that the Jagiellonian Library was given several dozen books, important for the Polish culture, and several hundred brochures. Also, the National Museum in Cracow has a big collection of artefacts given by the collector from Sweden. None of those collections have been explored before. The article is based on the correspondence between Bukowski and the directors of all three institutions in Cracow donated by the Swedish antiquarian .
