Ingacy Scibor Marchocki (1755–1827) of Ostoja coat of arms〔Adam Boniecki "Herbarz Polski" Warszawa 1899-1913〕 was a Polish noble, famous in the first quarter of the nineteenth century. Ścibor Marchocki proclaimed his estates in Ukraine-Podolean as an independent state and installed pillars on its borders with name plates that identified that this was “The border of Minkowce state”. He was a benefactor for his peasants; he liberated them from serfdom and was concerned about their household improvement. His eccentricity, especially the introduction of pagan feasts, drew attention and Marchocki was convicted and imprisoned.〔Jadwiga Bogusławska, "Marchocki Ignacy", () "Słownik pracowników książki polskiej", Warszawa–Łódź 1972〕 ==Early life== Ingacy Ścibor Marchocki was born into a noble family that was part of the Clan of Ostoja. His father, Mihal Ścibor Marchocki, died when his son was still little and so Ignacy was raised by his uncle Wojciech who did his best to provide for boy's education. Much of the property of the family was supposed to be passed to Ignacy. However, due to the eccentric character of both Ignacy and his uncle, passing over the estate took much more time than expected.〔Jadwiga Bogusławska, "Marchocki Ignacy", () "Słownik pracowników książki polskiej", Warszawa–Łódź 1972”〕 He was sent by Wojciech to join the Prussian Army in order to train the character of Ignacy, hard terms implemented by the uncle taking the risk of Ignacy being killed in the war. Surviving hard time in Prussian army, Ignacy come back home from this expedition with character made of steel. However, as both had strong will, conflict between them arose and Ignacy left the Minkowce estates. During his time in the Prussian army, Ignacy learned several languages including French and German; he was also studying Roman law, literature and mythology. As Ingacy left for Warsaw, he continued his military career and reached the rank of Major. His efforts were recognized and he because respected person. On his suggestion, his uncle was nominated for the Order of Saint Stanislaus and he received it in 1790. In the end Wojciech died prematurely and Ignacy could enter the estate as new landlord.〔Sylwester Groza, „Hrabia Ścibor na Ostrowcu”, tom I–II, Warszawa 1848〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ignacy Ścibor Marchocki」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
