Family ties the case of the musicians of the Jasna Góra chapelle in the 19th century

This article aims to provide an insight into the development of family and social relationships that naturally crystallised in the Pauline monastery at Jasna Góra. The object of the study of these relationships has been narrowed down to the musicians working in the Jasna Gora chapelle in the 19th century, and their families. However, there will be no shortage of situations showing the kinship between the musicians, extending beyond the period mentioned above. This will also apply to the relationships established, which, because of the place where they were concluded, were also closely connected with the monks residing at Jasna Góra. The musical factor is also not without influence here. It brought together people who, because of their profession, came to the monastery to earn money. This laid the foundations for looking at the Jasna Góra chapelle in a multi-generational context. Obviously, this topic discussed during the period of 19th-century historical turmoil would leave a peculiar mark on the interpersonal relationships established, which is also a testimony today to the humanity shown to each other at that time.
