„Pociesz i mię tu na chwilę…” Problematyka religijna Pieśni Nikodema Muśnickiego SJ
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2016) Janiec, Adam
The article presents the most important religious themes in "Pieśni" ["Songs"] by Nikodem Muśnicki, a Jesuit from Polotsk, who was active during the Enlightenment. His biography, as presented in the introductory section, places him among forgotten writers, representatives of classicism after King Stanislaus II, and is a starting point in the interpretation of his songs. The analysis of selected pieces, published in the volume "Drobniejsze poetyckie zabawki" ["Smaller Poetic Toys"] and those which remained in manuscript, clearly indicates that Muśnicki chose the most important religious problems as his object of poetic reflection. He is interested in God, man and the world. Within these themes he also analyses more detailed issues: the essence of the Supreme Being, the existential situation of the human being, the place of man in the universe, and, last but not least, relations of God and man. The poet’s works are an interesting example of Polish religious poetry during the Enlightenment.
Taniec na Golgocie w medytacyjnym zbiorze Plęsy Jezusa z aniołami Marcina Hińczy
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2016) Bielak, Alicja
The aim of the article is to present the 17th-century meditations of Jesuit Marcin Hińcza entitled "Plęsy Jezusa z aniołami" ["Jesus Dancing with Angels"] in the context of Ignatius of Loyola’s meditation method and the main topic of the work which is the cosmic dance. Hińcza used the dance metaphor in quite the paradoxical way, because as opposed to the moralistic writings of his times he didn’t criticise it but rather applied to explain allegorically God’s plan on earth and the idea of imitatio Christi. In the title of his work Hińcza used the word “pląs” which in Polish means: dancing, jumping, applauding and also triumphing. This variety of significations served the autor to present the cosmic meaning of Christ’s “dance”. In "Plęsy Jezusa z aniołami" Jesus has “jumped” from heavens to the womb of Virgin Mary, then he “jumped out” to the earth to run it around (as Logos), next He “jumped” upon the cross on Calvary and triumphantly made his last “jump” back to Heavens. According to the meditative idea of imitatio worshippers should imitate the angels in supporting the Saviour in his “leaps”. The interpretational background of the article are the New Testament apocrypha and the Church Fathers’ writings.
W kręgu historiografii czasów saskich
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2022-12) Prabucki Krzysztof
The review describes Piotr Sebastian Ślusarczyk’s book entitled “Horizons of erudition. A study on Szymon Majchrowicz’s Triazoic szczęśliwa królestw”. The cognitive value of this publication is manifested in its extraordinary approach to historiographic matter which is extremely often marginalized by researchers studying the late Baroque literary heritage. The review focuses on showing the erudite nature of Ślusarczyk’s monograph first of all and also examining the antecedents of the ideas explicated in the Jesuit’s work and also polemics with the author about the „Sarmatian nature” of Szymon Majchrowicz’s treatise.
