The theme of the article is to present the work based on Franciszek Sitański’s, "Pszczółka w bursztynie" ("Bee in the Amber", Cracow 1627) – using metaphorical imagery coming from monastic life (vita contemplativa), and to show through ekphrasis the virtues cultivated by nuns. It also becomes apparent in relation to the figure of St. Dorothy (3rd century AD), the martyrs of Caesarea in Cappadocia, and Dorota Kątska (1558–1643), Abbess of St. Norbert’s Order in the then village of Zwierzyniec near Cracow, the role of the visual sphere and the ways of transposing the visual into language material. Attention is also paid to the function of metaphors and their power of visualization, through which the images of things and phenomena can be observed.

This article presents allegoric-symbolic imagery present in XVII century mystic and reflectively-meditative texts. For example the autobiographical confession of Jadwiga Stobieńska, Carmelite nun and meditations of Teresa Petrycówna, Norbertine nun, show that operating through the means of words (like allegories and symbols) serve to the induction of survival and to express of inexpressible. Sophisticated imagery introduced by the nun-writers was a proof not only of their literary proficiency, but also an indication of the impossibility of finding adequate words to express the nonsensory experiences which were achieved beyond any representations.

Zmartwychwstanie Pańskie w norbertańskim rękopisie „Kontemplacyja męki i śmierci Chrystusa Pana [...]” (1662)

The subject of the article is the analysis of 17th century meditations about the Resurrection of Christ included in the manuscript collection of the Norbertine Sisters in Zwierzyniec. The reflection covers the traditions about the triumph of the glorified Lord, the women’s visit to the Lord’s Tomb, the announcement of the Resurrection to the women, Christ offering fish to his disciples, Christ’s meeting with Mary Magdalene and the disciples on their way to Emaus. The mode of presentation of these themes emphasizes a number of dogmas and truths of faith, mostly about the Resurrection of Christ and his divine nature. It is demonstrated in the article that the Norbertine texts were based not only on Gospels, but also on apocryphal sources and emblematic representations. The deliberations clarify that the author probably intended not only to report the course of events, but first of all to give a testimony of faith, to assert the real resurrection of the crucified Christ. An insight into the issue of the Resurrection of Christ in the light of biblical tradition and Old Polish literature is also offered.

The article points to a relationship between Mikołaj Mieleszko’s Nabożne westchnienia and meditations, and shows the meditative character of the baroque emblematic works. It also presents the division of the work into three books introduced by Mieleszko, which can be referred to the model of a three-stage mystical way to God (via purgativa, via illuminativa, via unitiva), used by St. Ignatius of Loyola (but knowing by Pseudo-Dionysius The Areopagite and fully expressed by St. Bonaventure). Moreover, it discusses the participation of human faculties in the emblems: memory, intellect, will, imagination, and feelings, which are so important for the act of meditation. Above all, emphasis is put on the goal of the reflections presented by Mieleszko in the subscriptio; they were supposed to touch the soul and convince one to a spiritual transformation. They were, therefore, just like meditations, a way of achieving inner growth.

Artykuł dotyczy zagadnienia katolickiej kultury religijnej w potrydenckiej Rzeczypospolitej. Uwagę skoncentrowano na jednym z przejawów zmian zachodzących w okresie potrydenckim - dynamicznym rozwoju klasztorów gałęzi męskiej i żeńskiej. Pokazano, że szczytem odnowy i pogłębienia życia religijnego w okresie potrydenckim był rozwój teologii ascetyczno-mistycznej, pozostający w związku z odnową teologii. Omówiony został wpływ jezuitów, którzy wprowadzili do zakonów modlitwę zmetodyzowaną, na duchowość żeńskich klasztorów. Naświetlono, że odradzająca się od zakończenia Soboru Trydenckiego do połowy XVII wieku duchowość katolicka w Polsce znalazła się przede wszystkim pod wpływem szkoły hiszpańskiej, w której aktywnością odznaczali się jezuici, ze św. Ignacym Loyolą na czele, karmelici bosi zreformowani przez św. Jana od Krzyża, karmelitanki bose zreformowane przez św. Teresę z Ávili, dominikanin Ludwik z Granady oraz św. Piotr z Alkantary, dający początek reformatom. Refleksją objęta została także katolicka literatura religijna doby potrydenckiej, między innymi dzieła ascetyczno-mistyczne, przyswojone głównie z włoskiego i hiszpańskiego piśmiennictwa.

This article presents Catholic religious culture in Poland in post-Tridentine era. It takes into account one of the manifestations of change taking place at the time, namely a dynamic development of male and female religious orders. The article shows the connection between the intensification of religious life and the development of ascetic and mystical theology resulting from the general renewal of Catholic theology. The influence of the Jesuits on the spirituality of female orders as well as their role in introducing the practice of methodical mental prayer is highlighted. The impact of Spanish spirituality on Polish religious life after the Council of Trent is also emphasised, with special attention drawn to Saint Ignatius of Loyola and the Jesuits, Saint John of the Cross and the Discalced Carmelites, Saint Theresa of Ávila and her Discalced Carmelite nuns, Louis of Granada with the Dominicans, and Saint Peter of Alcántara, one of the founders of the Franciscan Friars of the Strict Observance. Polish Catholic religious literature of the post-Tridentine era is also reflected upon, including ascetic and mystical writings adopted from Italian and Spanish religious literature.

The subject of this article is to discuss the penetration of influences of Spanish mysticism, in particular, the works of Saint Teresa of Ávila, on the literature and culture of the Polish Baroque. The intercultural influence of Spanish mysticism on Polish artists is reflected in the translations of the writings of Saint Teresa of Ávila. The considerations focus on the influence of the mysticism of Saint Teresa on mystical autobiographies and anonymous poetry of Carmelite nuns from Krakow from the 17th and 18th centuries. The reflection also covers the centres of the veneration of the saint in Poland, in services and prayer books, and her popularisation through art. Mystical influences are also visible in the poetry of the 17th and 18th centuries, including poetry by Kasper Twardowski, Sebastian Grabowiecki, Stanisław Grochowski, Mikołaj Mieleszko, Zbigniew Morsztyn, Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski, Elżbieta Drużbacka, and Konstancja Benisławska. The Polish-Spanish ties situate the research issues undertaken in a comparative context, without which the studies on post-Tridentine spirituality would not have produced real achievements.

This article presents the image of a spiritual wedding between soul-Bride and Divine Bridegroom which is featured in anonymous meditations from the XVII century. They are bunched in manuscript form and stored in the archives of the Sisters of St. Norbert’s Order in Cracow. Therefore, it is proper to make the thesis that the author of this manuscript belonged to this abbey. The primary origin of these meditations is The Song of Songs which shows the special way mystics merge with God. This article also reveals meditations about ”spiritual marriage” that contain visible influences of the Fathers of Church and Żywoty świętych of Piotr Skarga. All these influences are evident not only about the authoress erudition but most of all about her need of strong effect, by means of suggestive images of figures, for the attitude of practitioners of meditations. With the aid of the idea of mutual love between Divine Bridegroom and human being-Bride, meditations were presented standing before God demanding from man spiritual transformation and pose of the human being who desires to internally change yourself for Him.
