Question

In looking up stuff for this article I started to wonder about the exact status of the Lipkas within the commonwealth. The upper ranks of the Lipkas were definitely nobility (szlachta), but the status of the rank and file is less clear. It seems like they had a sort of special status in and of themselves - not quite nobility, but some guaranteed privileges and so on. For example, sources state that unlike peasants, they had a right to acquire and own land but "na prawie Tatarskim" (on Tatar law) rather than on "nobles' law" (this was one of the extensions made by Jan Kazimierz in 1669 and later confirmed by the Sejm after the rebellion). I'm not sure what this meant (restricted rights of inheritance maybe?). If anyone knows anything or can provide some sources, it'd be much appreciated.radek (talk) 05:16, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, ok, found an answer to my own question [1].radek (talk) 06:11, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

...came out of Sobieski's private holdings

I recall reading somewhere that they came from królewszczyzny...? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 02:51, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think it was both, I'll take another look at the sources.radek (talk) 18:04, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The source I cited for this states:

"Aby ich pozyskać w porozumieniu z sejmem przywrócił im dawne prawa, a w zamian za zaległy żołd przyznał w 1679 roku ziemię w Kruszynianach, Nietupiach, Łużanach, Drahlach, Malawiczach i Bohonikach (Podlasie)...Obok wspomnianych terenów, Tatarzy otrzymali nadania od króla w Lubelskiem (1681): Lebiedziewie, Małaszewiczach i Studziance. Jednak z tego osadnictwa pozostały obecnie wyłącznie ślady materialne (cmentarz) i nieliczni potomkowie dawnych osadników."

(In order to reach an understanding between them (the Lipkas) and Sejm, he (Sobieski) restored their privileges, and in exchange for the unpaid wages, in 1679 he granted them land in (list of villages follow) ... In addition to the listed regions, the Tatars obtained a grant from the King in (another list of regions). However, there only remain rare signs of the Tatars in these settlements, and only a few descendants still live there)

When I first read that for this article I took it to mean that the first list of grants (w Kruszynianach, Nietupiach, Łużanach, Drahlach, Malawiczach i Bohonikach (Podlasie)) were the ones made by the Sejm, probably out of królewszczyzny and that the second list were the ones made by Sobieski personally. But reading it again it could be that the list is simply split among those settlements which survived and those which didn't. I'll keep looking to try and find out more.radek (talk) 19:34, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Instead "choragwii" should be "choragwie" (nominative). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.243.97.79 (talk) 02:08, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Translation no. 2

Sorry, should be the other way around: Instead of "choragwie" - "choragwii" (accusative,genitive). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.243.97.79 (talk) 02:25, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I havent seen original text, but im pretty sure that here: "Polish thrust towards Kaminiec; large Turkish convoy, going from Walachia in direction of Kaminiec, attacked by Russian woiwode" instead of "Russian" should be "Ruthenian" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dinth (talk • contribs) 07:00, 19 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
