Published by: Instytut Badań Literackich Polskiej Akademii Nauk
Keywords: Piotr Pirecki; Polish "plebeian" comedy
Summary/Abstract: The text discusses Piotr Pirecki’s book on Polish 16th and 17th c. "plebeian" comedy, the title of which is being quite a misnomer. The comedies in question were created by anonymous Kraków Academy alumni – thus cultivated humanists and writers, who however referred to true plebeian literature and its medieval European tradition (cf. "Carmina Burana," goliards’-vagants’ poetry or "Till Eullenspiegel").
