usable lands. It can also be safely said that the vast land becomes a place flowing with honey and milk, but thanks to the efforts of the landowner's very careful and comprehensively planned work. This landowner turned a public institution into a defender of landed property in order to instill true civilization in it even more strongly and, by raising it, to make a great embankment in the East, protecting the West from storms, which were a daily phenomenon here in the borderlands, but were increasingly losing their momentum.

This volume exhausts all medieval records of courts in the Ruthenian and Belz voivodeships, contained in the books of the Lviv archives. They are given in summaries except for a few notes which are given verbatim for their validity. A researcher of the past will also notice here that the content of the notes is repeated and that entire series of them do not provide anything new to clarify the institution of law. However, it follows from this preface itself that if many court records do not satisfy the legal researcher with their content, a genealogist, antiquarian, historian of customs and even a researcher of the internal system of the Polish Republic will find enough material in them to profitably use the material of the records for his research on the 15th century. Moreover, sometimes the very reverence for personalities such as Grzegorz of Sanok, for families such as the Buczacki and Jazłowieccy families and so many others who led the civilizing work here did not allow the omission of court records, otherwise meaningless or indifferent in content. And we cannot pass over in silence the fact that many entries could not be omitted, and because it was necessary for the researcher to be made aware of what those sections of the book, which were already divided into various sections of the acts, looked like and to give him the opportunity to look into the characteristic differences of these sections, which constitute the basis for this classification of acts, and how it was finally shaped in the 16th century. century. Only on the basis of not omitting entries, even if they are vague, can today look into the books of bailiffs and examine what matters were within the scope of their jurisdiction; can be further stated with complete scientific accuracy, as already in the 15th century. In the 19th century, files were divided into books of perpetual entries (perpetitatum) and books of court cases (actionum judicialium), the latter of which later turned into books of judgments, while the former were separated into books of Obligationum, which later turned into books of Relationum. And in this volume, the legal historian has enough material to study the evolutions that records and, therefore, court cases underwent in the 15th century. century, until they finally took the form of the 16th century. age has taken its toll on them.
