Z kroniki do sylwy. Wokół problemów rękopisu i druku w początkach XVII wieku. Część 2: Wiersz Macieja Stryjkowskiego w lwowskim rękopisie Ossolineum
From a Chronicle to a Silva. On the Problems of Manuscript and Print at the Beginning of 17c. Part 2: Maciej Stryjkowski’s Poem in Lvov Manuscript

Summary/Abstract: The article attempts to collate bibliography of the works by Maciej Stryjkowski, a Renaissance poet and historian, author of "Chronicle of Poland, Lithuania, Samogitia and of all Ruthenia" ("Kronika polska, litewska, żmudzka i wszystkiej Rusi") published in Königsberg in 1582. Stryjkowski’s autobiographical statements made at various stages of his productivity containing the first notes about the texts and brief characteristics of his own pieces form a starting point for the present paper. The author treats the statements as the epoch’s literary texts which thus are subject to imitation, depend on conventions and make use of the repertoire of traditional topoi. The analyses and comparative studies conclude with a postulate of deleting the poem "O wolności szlachty polskiej, jakiej nie masz pod słońcem świata" ("On the freedom of Polish nobility [...]") from the list of Stryjkowski’s pieces as the centon was composed at the beginning of 17th century by a poem writer Marcin Paszkowski from fragments of Stryjkowski’s anti-Turkish poem "O wolności Korony Polskiej i Wielkiego Księstwa Litewskiego" ("On the Freedom of the Polish Crown and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania") (1575).
