Summary/Abstract: The republican idea of the so-called “golden freedom”was established in Poland in the 16th century as a result of collective actions of the catholic and protestant nobility. In the 17thcentury this idea still joined with the catholic faith and was best incarnated in the poems by Wespazjan Kochowski. Both Wespazjan and his work are now forgotten, but the ideas preached by him are still alive. The Polish religious poetry of the 17th and 18th centuries is directly present in contemporary Polish religiousness.
