Summary/Abstract: The review comments on the contemporary publication of a 17th century print by Marcin Paszkowski “Dzieje tureckie i utarczki kozackie z Tatary” (“Turkish History and Cossack Skirmishes with Tatars”) (issued in 1615 by Mikołaj Lob) edited by Ewa Siemieniec-Gołaś and Agata Pawlina as a part of the series “Orientalia Polonica. Polskie Tradycje Badań nad Orientem” (“Orientalia Polonica. Polish Traditions of the Research on the Orient”). With regard to the rich Turkish material, preparation of the edition by the Orientalists is a justified decision. However, since the publication in question is also a source for the researchers in the 17th c. Polish language history and history of Polish literature, there arises a question whether preparation of Old-Polish material meets the criterial of Polish studies editing.
