The article is concerned with Judyta, Pojedynek... and Enchiridion militis Christiani…– Potocki’s pieces, and works which inspired the poet to write them. The author focuses on two kinds of fight: spiritual and virtual, and on the characters who engage in the fight. Two kinds of pious knights are distinguished: the allegorical character, created in Pojedynek…and Enchiridion…, based on the Erasmian topos militis Christiani, and the knight of God – disclosed in Judyta, who has nothing in common with that topos. It is pointed out that anti-Turkish elements occur in Enchiridion…. There are also analogies between the protagonists in these works and the knight of Christ from Piotr Skarga’s Żołnierskie nabożeństwo [“Soldiers’ Devotions”]. It is stated that Potocki is Erasmian only to the extent that he refers to Arian ideology, and pious knights show existential dilemmas – especially their care for the country regarding various threats, including the Turks.

In the study Happy Lands of Red Ruthenia in selected renaissance and baroque poets’ literary creations there were explored associations of literary space with European poetry’s tradition, especially Italian, as well as with native tradition vested with local habits and ceremonies. Those affiliations created in Sebastian Fabian Klonowic, Szymon Zimorowic and Józef Bartłomiej Zimorowic’s chosen pieces. Studies contained Sebastian Fabian Klonowic’s poem Roksolania czyli ziemie Czerwonej Rusi and Zimorowic brothers’ poetic cycles Roksolanki and Sielanki nowe ruskie. Thematics of those pieces pertain to space and tradition of Red Ruthenia, however it is possible to indicate affiliations with Mediterranean culture in them (especially in context of conventional speech poetics connected with mythological and mythical literary tradition). Analyzed pieces confirm that renaissance and baroque’s culture of former Republic of Poland shaped under the influence of European heritage. At the same time, for Mediterranean those pieces could become a source of inspiration (for example Zimorowic brothers’ bucolic cycles correspond with music and former dances) or knowledge (Klonowic’s poem shows unknown areas of Republic of Poland’s southeast borders for European reader). An image of nature and Red Ruthenia’s literary landscape, which appears in those poets’ works, places their legacy in the circle of convention, tradition and universal values.
