A RAKÓW EDITION OF “POSTĘPEK PRAWA CZARTOWSKIEGO” (“THE TRIAL OF THE DEVIL’S LAW”) EDITORIAL ADDENDA AS BASED ON A REISSUE FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE 17TH CENTURY

Summary/Abstract: The paper includes pieces of information about a reissue of Postępek prawa czartowskiego (The Trial ofthe Devil’s Law), an anonymous early printed book attributed to Sebastian Sternacki’s printing shop,dated approximately 1619, and omitted from scholarly editing until now. Due to physical damage to theunique copy of editio princeps (Brest-Litovsk 1570), the existing state of art is incomplete, and referenceto the early 17th c. full-text edition allows to fill the missing gaps. As based on the latter copy, an editionof fragments unknown to this day was prepared, namely the beginning of chapter I, a part of chapter II,prefatory verse Przedmowa do czytelnika łaskawego (Foreword to the Gentle Reader), and Dialog aboRozmowa o Sprawiedliwości Świeckiej (Dialogue or Conversation on Secular Justice), a piece appendedto the reissue of The Trial.
