| Abstract [eng] |
The aim of the article is to discuss a subjective view on the day-to-day life of Tatars in the Grand Duchy of Llthuania (hereinafter GDL) by referring to the only anti-Tatar work written in the GDL "Alfurkan Tatarski prawdziwy na czterdziestu czesci rozdzielony" ("The Real Tatars' Alfurkan Divided into Forty Parts") by Piotr Czyzewski (second edition, Wilno, 1617). The comparative method used in discussion by the author is very important, because when Czyzewski assesses Tatars he compares them with Jews and Rom. This research is bipartite: 1) determination or motives that lead the author to choose to compare Tatars' everyday life with that of Jews and Rom; 2) an attempt to restore the roots of some of the author's anti-Tatar ideas. The conclusion of the research is that since the beginning of the 17th century stereotypes or common images of the non- Christians, which were equally associative having in mind Tatars and Jews, gradually formed in he society of the GDL, and there was an attempt to imitate well known anti-Jewish approaches tor creating anti-Tatar imitations by interception. |
