This article is dedicated to the preliminary analysis of marginalia left by Conrad Gesner (1516−1565) in his personal copy of Carmen de bisonte by a Polish neo-Latin poet, Nicolaus Hussovianus. Gesner received this small volume from his former disciple, Anton Schneeberger, who had settled down in Kraków in the late 1550s, and he immediately annotated this volume, using it as an additional source of information for his zoological works, Historia animalium and Icones animalium. Until the publication of the catalogue of Gesner’s private library, the copy of Hussovianus’s Carmen remained unknown to Polish historians of literature and science. The essay presents an outline of research perspectives related to this document and the rest of Gesner’s Nachlass. The article is followed by two appendices, one providing the bibliographical information on the Zurich copy of Carmen, the other giving a sample of Hussovianus’s text accompanied by Gesner’s notes and interventions.

The aim of the article is to analyse the marginalia left by Fabian Birkowski (1566–1636) in a copy of Peter Ramus’s treatise Ciceronianus. The copy has been preserved in the Jagiellonian Library in Kraków (shelfmark St. Dr. 590232 I) and also contains notes by Jan Brożek added a few decades later. In the article I demonstrate how Birkowski used the treatise by the French reformer of rhetoric, when he taught classical languages at the Kraków Academy, and how the image of Cicero as well as the reflections on imitating his style presented in the treatise may have influenced Birkowski’s views on the history and theory of rhetoric.

Jan Latosz’s Przestroga (A Warning) of 1595:  Prolegomena to a critical edition based on a seventeenth-century manuscript from the National Library in WarsawThe aim of this paper is to draw attention to an understudied mid-seventeenth-century manuscript copy of Przestroga (A Warning) by Jan Latosz (Joannes Latosinus, ca. 1539–1608). All three copies of the printed version of Przestroga, published in Cracow in 1595, that were known before the World War II are now considered to be lost and the manuscript held at the National Library in Warsaw (MS 6631 III) appears to be the only extant witness to this text. In the article, the author gives a brief characteristics of the manuscript, provides an outline of its contents and makes an attempt to draw further research and editorial trajectories related to this document. He makes an argument that the future critical edition of the text of Przestroga should shed some new light on the astrological and chronological views of this controversial Cracow scholar, and that the further study of the manuscript as a material object can provide additional information about the possible reception and reinterpretation of Latosz’s text half-century after its publication.

This article discusses a largely overlooked aspect of the last work by Johannes Broscius (1585−1652), his Apologia pro Aristotele et Euclide contra Petrum Ramum et alios of 1652. While the past researchers focused their attention on the evaluation of Broscius’s contribution to mathematics, geometry in particular, they ignored the socio-scientific aspect of his work, that is the way Peter Ramus and his followers have been presented and how did the dark legend of Ramus have been thus revived at the Central-European university in the middle of 17th century. I am showing types of rhetorical arguments employed by Broscius and analyse the way he portrayed Ramus and depicted events related to the reception of Ramism at the Academy of Cracow. The article is followed by an appendix which contains a critical edition of excerpts from the manuscript rough draft of Apologia which has been preserved until nowadays (Jagiellonian Library MS. 3205 I). In the apparatus I identify the references and show how Broscius rewrote and rearranged the original paragraphs of his anti-Ramist work.

Artykuł podejmuje zagadnienie badań proweniencyjnych prowadzonych w zbiorach Biblioteki UMK w Toruniu i stanowi jednocześnie komunikat o identyfikacji marginaliów wykonanych przez Jana Brożka (1585–1652) w dwóch drukach zakupionych przez BUMK na rynku antykwarycznym w 1968 r. – Streny Johannesa Keplera (Frankfurt 1611) i Numerus figuratus Johanna Remmelina (Norymberga 1614). Podane są kolejno: charakterystyka egzemplarza, dowody na proponowaną w tekście atrybucję (oparte na rękopisach Brożka zachowanych w zbiorach Biblioteki Jagiellońskiej w Krakowie), a marginalia znajdujące się w dziełku Keplera powiązane zostają z ogłoszoną przez Brożka w roku 1615 rozprawą Problema geometricum. W ostatniej części zostają nakreślone perspektywy badawcze związane z rekonstrukcją warsztatu naukowego krakowskiego uczonego – zarówno w mniejszej skali, obejmującej wyłącznie jego lektury i notatki związane z rozprawą z 1615 r., jak i całość jego rękopiśmiennej spuścizny, która w dalszym ciągu nie jest wystarczająco dobrze rozpoznana.

The article addresses the question of provenance research conducted in the collections of the University Library in Toruń. It also concerns the identification of the marginalia made by Jan Brożek (1585–1652) in two prints purchased by the University Library in 1968 – Strena by Johannes Kepler (Frankfurt 1611) and Numerus figuratus by Johann Remmelin (Nuremberg 1614).The author provides: a description of the copy, the evidence for the attribution suggested in the text (based on Brożek’s manuscripts kept in the collections of the Jagiellonian Library in Cracow); the marginalia included in Kepler’s work are connected with the treatise Problema geometricum issued by Brożek in 1615. The last part of the article presents the scientific prospects connected with the reconstruction of the scientific skills and tools of the Cracow scientist – both in a smaller dimension referring exclusively to his notes connected with the treatise of 1615, and the whole of his manuscript legacy which is yet to be thoroughly examined.

In dem Artikel werden Fragen der Provenienzforschung am Bestand der Universitätsbibliothek in Thorn erörtert. Der Beitrag informiert zugleich über die Identifizierung von Johannes Broscius als Autor von Marginalien in zwei Büchern, die 1968 durch die Universitätsbibliothek antiquarisch erworben wurden: Streny von Johannes Kepler (Frankfurt 1611) und Numerus figuratus von Johann Remmelin (Nürnberg 1614). In bedien Fällen wurden nach der Charakteristik des Exemplars Beweise für die im Beitrag vorgeschlagene Attribution (gestützt auf Handschriften von Broscius in den Beständen der Jagiellonen-Bibliothek in Krakau) dargestellt. Die Marginalien im Werk von Kepler wurden mit der 1615 herausgegebenen Abhandlung von Broscius Problema geometricum verbunden. Im letzten Teil des Beitrags wurden Forschungsperspektiven beschrieben, die mit der Rekonstruktion der wissenschaftlichen Arbeitstechnik des Krakauer Forschers zusammenhängen – und dies in zwei Perspektiven: zum Einen ausschließlich in Bezug auf seine Lektüren und Notizen zur Abhandlung aus dem Jahre 1615, zum Anderen in Bezug auf den gesamten handschriftlichen Nachlass, der immer noch unzureichend ausgewertet ist.

Artykuł stanowi propozycję uporządkowania zagadnień związanych z dużym zróżnicowaniem przekazów rękopiśmiennych funkcjonujących razem pod nazwą „przepowiedni elekcyjnej”, przypisywanej Jerzemu Joachimowi Retykowi. Autor proponuje model pokazujący, w jaki sposób oryginalny, niezachowany do dnia dzisiejszego w postaci autografu tekst „przepowiedni”, po wprowadzeniu do obiegu rękopiśmiennego za sprawą korespondencji i wykonywanych licznie odpisów, ulegał procesom kontaminacji i interpolacji, przy jednoczesnym kształtowaniu się tradycji wernakularnych tego tekstu. Procesy te zostały zilustrowane w aneksach źródłowych zawierających edycje przekazów w języku łacińskim, polskim i niemieckim.The paper aims to organise the issues concerning the great variety of manuscripts jointly described as the “election prophecy,” supposedly made by Georg Joachim Rheticus. The author proposed to apply a model showing how the original text of the “prophecy,” the autograph of which has not been preserved to this day, underwent contamination and interpolation after being introduced into manuscript circulation through correspondence and numerous copies, while at the same time serving as the basis for the creation of vernacular traditions of the text. These processes are depicted in source materials annexed to the paper, containing editions of accounts in Latin, Polish, and German.

The paper aims to organise the issues concerning the great variety of manuscripts jointly described as the “election prophecy,” supposedly made by Georg Joachim Rheticus (1514–1574), an astronomer, astrologer, and the student of Nicolaus Copernicus. The study contains a proposal of a model showing how the original Latin text of the “prophecy,” the autograph of which has not been preserved to this day and which had the form of a horoscope diagram with commentary by Rheticus, underwent contamination and interpolation, while at the same time serving as the basis for the creation of two vernacular traditions of the text – Polish and German. The analysis of the preserved copies consists of the description of the most reliable witness of the “prophecy” tradition – the copy made in the 18th century by Wrocław-based Enlightenment historian Samuel Beniamin Klose on the basis of the available documents of Andrzej Dudycz, which introduced the text into wider circulation – and of the discussion of other accounts which can be found in European libraries. The transformations undergone by the text of the prophecy between late 16th century and early 18th century are depicted in source materials annexed to the paper, containing the editions of several Latin and Polish versions of the text, as well as its German version.
