This study deals with that portion of the repertoire of the Czech Advent and Christmas songbook Jesličky (Prague, 1658) by Fridrich Bridelius, which newly appeared in Czech hymnography thanks to this song book, and it summarizes the various results of the search for textual sources from other languages for these “new” songs in Jesličky. It points out their ties to contemporary German written hymnography (of both German and Bohemian provenience) and to Latin hymnography, i.e. to contemporary Latin songs. The text is thus not only a contribution towards discovering the ways that Czech hymnographers of the 17th century became familiar with the new, i.e. baroque, poetic language, but also, above all, an attempt to stimulate further hymnological research on baroque hymnographic works in the early modern history of Central Europe and the interconnections and relationships between them.

History of the Socaliensis Deiparae Virginis Sacrae et Miraculosae Imaginis is an edition of a unique print from the Jagiellonian Library collection, published around 1618. The Poznań governor, a man of deep faith, described the miraculous picture of Our Lady of Sokal, which, according to family tradition, had contributed to his birth. However, this is not a hagiographic story. Ostroróg, as the author of the story, wrote from the perspective of a historian and a documentarian. He relied on the available source materials. The facts given are accurate and reliable.

The subject matter of this article is the episode of Skarga’s creations, concerning the argument with a protestant writer and publisher, Daniel Cramer. The conflict referred to the speech made by the Jesuit, just before the war expedition of King Sigismund III Vasa which started in Inflants. The essence of the speech was subsequently translated into German by an anonymous translator, a witness of this event. Furthermore, it was published as a maligning source against the king’s preacher. As a response, Skarga had created his own written version of the speech, in such a form in which it was originally meant to be spoken. Afterwards he compared it to the German-language translation. By juxtaposing those two texts, he wanted to show in what way the opponents, in his opinion, manipulated the written forms of the facts. In addition, his objective was to restore the basic philological processes, which was conducted during the modification of his speech.

The songbook Jesličky (1658) has tended to be cited primarily as an example of direct contacts between Czech and German hymnography of the 17th century. Opening the door to consideration of a broader context was the presence of certain tunes in Latin-Slovak and Latin-Croatian printed material as well. An entire set of identical tunes has subsequently been confirmed in Latin, German, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, and Croatian hymnography. The situation outlined above has thus shifted the original issue – the “new” songs printed in Jesličky are not just a new layer of the Czech Christmas repertoire with proven German sources, but also an attempt at creating Czech versions of a supranational repertoire. The search for source models is thus growing into research surveying the new repertoire of Christmas songs that was spreading its way around Central Europe near the middle of the 17th century.

The earliest grave markers on the territory of Estonia are trapezium-shaped grave plates from the 13th-14th centuries – they show different symbols but usually no text. Gravestones in churches mostly date back to the 14th-17th centuries, but usually no Estonian names appear on them. The oldest partly preserved grave monuments bearing Estonian names are wheel crosses in churchyards in Northern Estonia, mainly originating from the late 16th century and 17th century. These are masterful monuments with fine finishing, bearing fragments of texts from the early period of written Estonian language. Regarding the frequency of their occurrence, wheel crosses are rather rare grave monuments which could not have been afforded by just any peasant. The texts on them were in German or Estonian, also some in Latin. In addition to names and dates, the text include information about the family, their trade and parentage, village names and other facts. Texts on these crosses gives information how literate were the masters who made them. In order to understand wheel crosses more fully, their art historical, ethnographic and religious background must be considered in addition to their linguistic aspects.

There is a manuscript of the 17th century, at Biblioteca Pública de Évora, which has two religious texts related to the pedagogical activity of the Jesuits. These texts present a large number of identical fragments, despite the existence of pragmatic differences originated by the festivities for which they were composed. The comparison between them will establish the extra‑textual characteristics of each and the progressive distance among them, from the simple textual variant to the rewriting process. This article will clarify the circumstances of the composition and performance of the texts, in the context of jesuitic teaching.

The article presents the biography and work of Martin Zeiller (1589-1661), a German polyhistor who authored descriptions of European countries and “lexicons”. Special attention is paid to the information he provides about the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Although the author never visited Poland, his works, based on the rich body of available literature, abound in references to the past and present of the Commonwealth. While Zeiller devoted two separate volumes (1647, 1657) to the description of Polish history, geography, society and political system, the information about the Polish Kingdom and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania is scattered across all of his work, published over a period of 30 years (1632-1663). In light of the above, the analysis of Zeiller’s scripts – hardly known to Polish researchers – may be an important element of studies on the image of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and its society in 17th-century German Empire. Also, it may provide insight into such issues as the transfer of knowledge and information, reflected, for instance, in how well German writers of that time were acquainted with Polish authors.

The guild mason was the creator of a group of about ten similar to each other churches built in the area between the Vistula and the Bug River. This paper provides an overview of the state of research on his work and its analysis and a polemic with earlier view, regarding him as an executor of architectural projects by Jan Michał Link. Churches bulit by Lenartowicz are characteristic due to a simple composition of floor plan, decorative composition of shapes and unusual elaboration of the architectural decoration, implemented entirely in brick and plaster.

Joachim Stegmann the elder (1595–1633), Brandenburg born theologian of the Polish Brethren, was also a mathematician. In this area of his activity, he published a textbook for the Unitarian school in Raków, Institutionum Mathematicarum Libri Duo (Two Books of Mathematical Sciences, Raków 1630), and two works describing multifunctional surveying devices: Circinus Quadrantarius (Quadrant Compass, Berlin 1624) and Radius Mathematicus (Mathematical Walking Stick, Berlin 1626). This paper deals with Stegmann’s Radius Mathematicus, which is a description, or rather a manual, of a walking stick of hexagonal section. Each of its sides was engraved with scales of various surveying devices. There were a cylinder sundial, a scale of quadrant for determining the altitude of Sun, a cross staff, a scala altimetra for determining the height of an object basing on the length of its shadow, a caliber gauge for determining the weight of cannonballs, a length of an ell and a gauging rod for surveying barrels. Some surveys had to be conducted with a separate gnomon. The stick was probably about 130 cm long and the gnomon was about 30 cm long. The paper is followed by a reproduction of Radius Mathematicus from the Gdańsk Library of the Polish Academy of Sciences (call number Sa 1 8° adl. 11) and its Polish translation.

The article shows the Bohemian lands in the 17th century as mediated by travelogues of English provenance, in particular travel diaries written both for personal use only and to be later published. Attention is mainly focused on the religious situation in Bohemia and Moravia and its transformation in the studied period in the context of the denomination of the English visitors. The paper further briefly describes individual travellers from England, who would come to the European continent for various reasons and would also visit the Kingdom of Bohemia as part of this trip.

A paper concerns the history of early modern diplomacy. The study explores operation of the imperial legates’ chapels in Saxon Dresden between the 1660s and 1690s under the rule of the Electors John George II, John George II, John George IV and Frederick Augustus until his conversion to the Catholic confession in 1697. The author summarizes basic information on location of the chapels, the chaplains and their activities and closely analyses problems of local authorities with the legates’ chapels. He illustrates alternations of tolerance and tension in Dresden that coincided with persecutions of the Saxon subjects attending Catholic masses (following 1676), with assaults against members of the legate’s entourage (1683 and 1685) and even with a ban of masses during the legate’s absence (1695). The legates and their chaplains, however, refused to yield and, despite certain limitations, continued to run the chapels.

The life story of Jiří Albrecht Zbudovský is a model example of a career strategy, which enabled members of lower social classes to exceed the geographic and social horizon of an early modern village. Zbudovský achieved an outstanding social rise in the revolutionary period of the first half of the 17th century when most of the Bohemians experienced a deep material downfall and existential threat. This common villager became successful as a patrimonial officer thanks to his education and natural character. After the defeat of the Bohemian estate uprising, he became a personal secretary to the new legitimate nobleman, General Baltazar Maradas; he was released from serfdom for his loyal service and finally ennobled by the emperor. After his patron’s death, Zbudovský drew on his social capital which he had created, became established among the Prague burgesses and built effective bonds with the Prague patriciate. Despite this, he identified himself with the people of his native village throughout his life.

This study is a contribution to the history of Early Modern Age diplomacy and focuses on one specific mission of a nobleman in the service of the Emperor at the end of the 17th century. The nobleman concerned was Johann Marcus Count von Clary und Aldringen, who represented Leopold I in Saxony in the years 1686–1694. This diplomatic mission was chosen intentionally as it represents diplomatic legations, which were centred on the Holy Roman Empire, and have until now been under-researched. The author summarises fundamental facts about this mission – Clary-Aldringen’s itinerary is closely analysed and provides evidence of the very special nature of this legation, which was rather dissimilar to diplomatic travels as we know them from contemporary documents. In this case the envoy did not reside permanently in Saxony. Despite that he managed to remain in this post for a relatively long period of time and the author tries to account for the reasons. He analyses various tasks which the envoy had to carry out abroad (the provision of military assistance or the running of a diplomatic chancery); he also deals with the phenomenon of legation secretaries and describes the atypical relationship of the Count towards the Prince-elector’s family. Finally, he provides evidence that this mission contributed significantly to the rise of the House of Clary-Aldringen in contemporary aristocratic society.

This article analyses diplomatic activities of one of the foremost Hapsburg noblemen, the Count Antonín Jan of Nostitz in Sweden between the years 1685–1690. This mission differed in many aspects from other diplomatic legations in the second half of the 17th century and it largely influenced the consequent career development of the young ambassador. A large range of problems and varied issues, which had greater or lesser impacts, which Count Nostitz had to address in his post, indicate the incredible dynamics of international relationships in the period following the Thirty Years’ War.

The submitted study analyses the spiritual and secular activities of the legation chaplains within the structure of the imperial embassies in Sweden in the second half of the 17th century. The Catholic clergy, recruited mainly from the Society of Jesus order, exploited numerous tactics and strategies in the strictly Lutheran environment which were meant to secure the success of illegal activities often undertaken. In this light, legation chaplains did not act merely as obedient servants of the envoys, but also as representatives of one of the most important religious orders specialising in missionary activity.

Koniec XVII wieku charakteryzuje się istnieniem dużej rozbieżności między wzrastającym poziomem rozwoju wiedzy medycznej, edukacji medycznej oraz metod terapeutycznych z jednej strony, a stanem wiedzy o zależnościach zdrowotnych od higieny na poziomie jednostki i społeczności z drugiej strony. Rozwój medycyny jako nauki w powiązaniu z rozwojem nauk biologicznych i metod klinicznych pozwala zrozumieć relacje między higieną, profilaktyką zdrowotną i stanem zdrowotności. Proces ten stał się widoczny w XIX wieku, kiedy stan wiedzy i postęp techniczny umożliwiły zastosowanie licznych rozwiązań prozdrowotnych na poziomie jednostki i całych społeczności. W tym kontekście artykuł omawia prekursorski charakter G.W. Leibniza postulatów dotyczących nauczania medycyny i organizacji służby zdrowia. Zarazem wykazuje się – na przykładzie zaleceń higienicznych, które sformułował Jean-Baptiste de la Salle – że postulaty Leibniza nie mogły zostać zrealizowane w XVII-wiecznym społeczeństwie.

The end of the 17th century is characterized by the existence of a marked discrepancy (or disproportion) between the growing level of medical knowledge, medical teaching and therapeutic methods on the one hand, and the state of knowledge concerning the relation between hygiene and health both on the level of individuals and the population on the other. The development of medicine as a science in connection with the development of biological sciences and clinical methods make it possible to understand the relation between hygiene, prevention and the state of health. This process became apparent in the 19th century, which is when the state of knowledge and the level of technical advancement made it possible to implement a number of prohealth solutions on the level of individuals and the whole society. It is in this context that this article discusses the precursory character of G.W. Leibniz’s postulates concerning the teaching of medicine and the organization of health service. It also demonstrates – based on the hygienic recommendations formulated by Jean-Baptiste de la Salle – that Leibniz’s postulates could not be fulfilled in 19th-century society.

W 1617 roku w krakowskiej oficynie wydawniczej Andrzeja Piotrkowczyka wydany został drukiem utwór zatytułowany O śmierci świętej pamięci Jego Mości X. Piotra Tylickiego krakowskiego biskupa […] i nabożnym ku niej przygotowaniu jego List do […] X. Wawrzyńca Gembickiego z Bożej Łaski arcybiskupa gnieźnieńskiego […]. Jego autorem był krakowski jezuita Fryderyk Szembek (1575–1644), który w pierwotnym zamyśle chciał o śmierci krakowskiego ordynariusza poinformować jedynie przyjaciela zmarłego hierarchy – arcybiskupa gnieźnieńskiego Wawrzyńca Gembickiego (1559–1624). W niedługim jednak czasie list ten na żądanie egzekutorów biskupiego testamentu oraz za wyraźnym dozwoleniem następcy Piotra Tylickiego na stolicy św. Stanisława Marcina Szyszkowskiego (1554–1630), jak i zakonnych zwierzchników autora został uzupełniony i wydany drukiem. Omawiany poniżej utwór autorstwa Fryderyka Szembeka należy do tzw. pisarstwa artis bene moriendi. Wydawane w tym nurcie książki miały co prawda różne formy, łączył je jednak przedmiot poruszanych w nich rozważań. Ogólnie rzecz ujmując, były to zbiory przykładów postaw i myśli o treści ascetycznej, służące do przygotowania człowieka na przyjęcie śmierci. Tytułowy biskup został w utworze przedstawiony z jednej strony jako wielki senator, prawdziwy potomek dawnych Polaków i miłośnik ojczyzny. Z drugiej zaś Piotr Tylicki był także dobrodziejem autora utworu oraz „dawnym i uprzejmym” przyjacielem adresata listu – arcybiskupa gnieźnieńskiego. Mimo tak wielu zalet i przymiotów w opisanym przez Fryderyka Szembeka trzyletnim okresie życia hierarchy Piotr Tylicki miał wedle autora ćwiczyć się w trzech zasadniczych cnotach. Pierwszą z nich było „wielkie nabożeństwo i takie, jakie ma być rzeczy boskich poważanie”, drugą stanowiła „pokora wielka w dostojeństwie tak wysokim”, trzecią i ostatnią było z kolei „staranie pilne o zbudowanie bliźnich i wystrzeganie się dania onym najmniejszego zgorszenia”.

In the year 1617 in Cracow printer Andrzej Piotrowczyk published book under the title O śmierci świętej pamięci Jego Mości X. Piotra Tylickiego krakowskiego biskupa […] i nabożnym ku niej przygotowaniu jego List do […] X. Wawrzyńca Gembickiego z Bożej Łaski arcybiskupa gnieźnieńskiego […]. Author of this work was one of the Cracow’s Jesuits Fryderyk Szembek (1575–1644). He wrote his letter to informed about death of bishop Piotr Tylicki to archbishop of Gniezno Wawrzyniec Gembicki (1559–1624), who was friend of dead. This work was however published in the short time, as it was mentioned, because of decision of executors of the bishop’s Piotr Tylicki will, religious superiors to Fryderyk Szembek and new bishop of Cracow, Marcin Szyszkowski (1554–1630). Szembek’s letter is example of ars bene moriendi writings. This type of literature have different forms, but all of them prepare men to the death. Therefore, they contain examples of attitudes and thoughts for dying person. Bishop Piotr Tylicki was presented in this letter as a exemplary senator, descendant of the nobles and patriot who loved his motherland, Poland. Bishop however had practiced his virtues. Those included religiosity, humility and care of piety of others. On the other hand we have to remember that, he was also the tutor of author. What is more, archbishop of Gniezno, as it was mentioned, was “old and kind” friend of bishop Piotr Tylicki.

This contribution, on the basis of data from a recently discovered primary source on the history of the Unity of the Brethren, i.e. the name index of its members from the Towns of Prague and suburbs from 1607, and their confrontation with other contemporary documents, reveals the allegiance of Wenceslaus Hollar’s father to this confession. However, some members of the Hollar Family, which had Czech Brethren roots, suceeded in behaving rather pragmatically in a new contemporary confessional environment and in adapting to the changes of confessional conditions by which they went beyond the usual notions of the Brethren confession and stood in contrast to the fortunes of the majority of other Prague members of the congregation of the Unity of the Brethren.
