SAMUEL TWARDOWSKI'S ACCOUNT OF PRINCE WLADYSLAW WAZA'S TOUR: A TEXTUAL GLOSS

The article analyzes the role of historical sources in Samuel Zborowski's account of Prince Wladyslaw Waza's Grand Tour in Book III of his biographical epic 'Wladyslaw IV, King of Poland and Sweden' (1649). Zborowski's detailed narrative creates the impression that it must be a first-hand report; yet more recent studies have established that he used notes written by someone else, most probably Stefan Pac's diary. This assumption must be corrected in the light of evidence examined in the article. The collated passages indicate that Zborowski's basic source was either the Latin report written by Jan Hagenaw, a royal official in charge of the tour, or a section of Wladyslaw IV's biography by Eberhard Wassenberg, who closely followed Hagenaw. Stefan Pac's diary was merely a secondary source, used by Zborowski on a much smaller scale.

'TOPOI' AND IDEAS: A NARRATOLOGICAL READING OF 'THE LEGEND OF ST ALEXIS'

The article offers a narratological reading of 'The Legend of St Alexis'. The analysis reveals that the description of Alexis's life draws on the 'topoi' of the encomium and that the biographical 'topoi' fuse with conventions employed in the construction of traditional (epic) heroes as well as heroes of romance. Adapting to his didactic needs the patterns of medieval romance the author cut back the love plot and the adventure plot. At the same time he follows the high epic tradition. This is demonstrated by the initial invocation and a consistent application of the principle of 'decorum' in the shaping of the main character and a lofty style. Moreover, the fact that the story belongs to a remote past justifies the high tone of the narration.

The article presents a picture of the historical events as reflected in Samuel Twardowski's biographical epic story 'Wladyslaw IV' (1649). The poet was one of the most outstanding representatives of the Polish gentry type of epic story and the author of long historical epics: 'Important Mission..' and 'Civil War ...'. The paper analyses the artistic principles and the modes shaping the nation's history of the Polish-Russian wars waged at the beginning of 17th century which served the poet as an important background to picture the future Polish ruler. In Twardowski's works we also notice different methods of heroization and fictionalization which aim, on the one hand, to present the history from the point of view of the country's 'raison d'état', and on the other hand, to view history as a complex of examples to support moral didactics. The article shows how Twardowski achieves the goals.
