List of Professors and Students of the Zhytomyr Academy of 1790

Abstract

The history of educational institutions that operated on the Right Bank of Ukraine in the 18th century is almost unexplored. In part, this can be explained by the lack of sources that could shed light on this aspect of Ukraine’s history. Considering this, the list of students and teachers of the Zhytomyr Academy, which is included in the register of the Roman Catholic population of the Kyiv Voivodeship, is unique. The source provides a list of students and teachers of the local educational institution by name and their ages. The vast majority of students came from noble backgrounds. Many of them belonged to noble families that settled in the Kyiv region and neighboring voivodeships in previous centuries.The list of students and professors of the Zhytomyr Academy is published with the preservation of the original format (table), the spelling is presented without changes, and the language of the source has not been modernized.
