Summary The article presents the Polish translations of the Emperor Hadrian’s poem Animula vagula blandula and the comments on it in the Polish literature (by A. Birley, A. Krawczuk, K. Morawski, J. German, Z. Kubiak, and G. Morcinek). Tese Polish references offer a range of literary approaches to the poem which still trigger a variety of associations and enduring reflections on Hadrian the emperor, and Hadrian the human individual and ‘his little wandering soul.’

Artykuł zawiera przegląd przekładów i komentarzy do znanego wiersza cesarza Hadriana Animula vagula blandula, jakie znajdują się w literaturze opublikowanej w języku polskim (A. Birley, A. Krawczuk, K. Morawski, J. German, Z. Kubiak, G. Morcinek). Są to jednocześnie literackie ścieżki omawianego wierszyka, wywołującego nadal wiele różnorodnych skojarzeń i ponadczasowych refleksji nad cesarzem – człowiekiem i jego duszyczką – wędrowniczką.

This work contains the original texts of the emperor’s letters connected with the problem of selecting town councilors of Ephesus. The texts were translated and equipped with critical comments.

The main issue of this article is primarily the paratextual comments by Marguerite Yourcenar made about her novel Memoirs of Hadrian. Paradoxically — despite all the objections of the author against recognising the text in terms of apocrypha (defined as a strong hoax / forgery) — the remarks confirm the diagnosis of the apocryphal character of the novel in another sense. Those self-commentaries, which relate to efforts to uphold ancient realities and build the illusion behind the authenticity of the autobiography of the emperor, support the idea and such understanding of apocrypha, which fully utilizes the potential genre intertext, or biblical apocrypha. The apocryphal character of Memoirs of Hadrian and other literary quasi-autobiographical fictions are not false attributions in which the role of the author is to play real historical persons, determine mimetic convention of a narrative, re-narration and re-focalization and related to them is the supplementation of biographical or (possibly) autobiographical intertextuality.

A recently uncovered assemblage of 13 coins, some of significant dating value, but all loose finds from fieldwork conducted by the Polish–Egyptian Conservation Mission, is discussed in the context of earlier coin finds recorded by the two Polish projects involved in the archaeological excavation and conservation of the Marina el-Alamein site on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt. The focus is foremost on predominantly Roman provincial coins originating from the Alexandrian mint. One of these bears a mark indicative of its use as a pendant. Hadrian bronzes, most numerous in this group, along with coins of Trajan and Antoninus Pius corroborate a peak in the development of the town in the 2nd century AD, while late Roman imperial specimens are direct evidence for its continued functioning in the late antique period.
