metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article focuses on the analysis of the manuscript of Jan Potocki which was founded in the
  archives of the St. Petersburg Institute of History (Russian Academy of Sciences). It is the translation into
  French of some parts of the «Chronicon terræ Prussiæ» by Peter of Dusburg. This translation was used
  by Potocki for his research in the East European history. Notes of translator contained in this manuscript
  shows that Potocki gave considerations to toponyms in his researches. Exploring the manuscript authors
  identified some sources used by Jan Potocki. To a considerable degree his notes were based on the remarks
  of Christophor Hartknoch, the first editor of «Chronicon terræ Prussiæ». Other source of information was
  the appendix of the map of Prussia made by historian and cartographer of 16th century Caspar Hennenberger.
  A drawing attention to toponyms was one of a characteristic features of Potocki’s works, in view of sphere
  of his interest ― the history of ethnos. Moreover, Potocki offered a specific representation of the Middle
  Ages considered as a interlink between Antiquity and the Modern time. Potocki underlined the continuity
  of toponyms. According to Potocki, analysis of toponyms, gives an indication of the settlement borders
  between particular ethnic groups. Chronicles written at various times allow to reveal the details of continuity
  and borrowing the place names of some words by different ethnical groups from each other. Potocki used
  various dictionaries, as well as lists of words that he has made during his travels in order to establish the
  linguistic trees from ancient to contemporary languages. Jan Potocki considered the Eastern Europe region
  not from the position of contemporary national borders, but in terms of «Sarmatia». The study of the region,
  as a whole, without allocation of internal political boundaries could be inspired by the theory of Sarmatism.
