The article describes the heraldic motifs of Lviv in poetry and historiographical works of J.B. Zimorowic. It’s goal is to explain by what means, why and what for they are used by the poet. The important factor is an allegorical tradition of the bucolic, which heraldry is a part of. The author quotes and discusses poems and inscriptions by Zimorowic, known only through his work Leopolis [...] obsessa, that was originally placed on the gates of the Lviv (including emblems). Zimorowic had a deep knowledge of the history and coat of arms of Lviv, as he was a great admirer of the city. During his lifetime he was recognized by readers and residents of Lviv as familiar and local poet. The references to various aspects of Lviv that appear in his works are part of an overall strategy (poetic as well as lifetime one) – by writing about his family and local matters he hoped to improve Lviv.

Precursors and forerunners, when they seek for novelty, establish some norms and frameworks which, in turn, become defining for poetical genres and currents. So, what is the right of an imitator to search for new paths? The subject of the article are meta-poetic declarations of creators, who willingly and consciously follow in the footsteps of their great predecessors. The author points to the metaphors by means of which the poets defend their “space of freedoms” or concede to their powerlessness. The cases of the following poets are considered: Józef Bartłomiej Zimorowic in relation to Szymon Szymonowicz, Albert Ines and Andrzej Kanon in relation to Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski. Especially close attention was given to problematics and contexts of Albert Ines’s words prefacing a collection of poems that are quoted and translated in the article.

The article is devoted to the motifs of mortality of Sielanki nowe ruskie (New Russia Bucolics) written by J. B. Zimorowic. The landscape of Ruthenian Arcadia is permeated with the vision of death and destruction of the body – the graves of his loved ones (wife, brother and children) are an important element there. The author reconstructs Zimorowic’s attitude to the tombs, and discusses the role of references to the transience and metapoetic motifs in the context of mourning bucolics (to preserve the memory of the dead). According to the author the abundance of mortality motifs in Zimorowic’s poetry is connected to the poet’s biography, his poetic strategy (writing about the beloved Lviv) and the effi ciency in the use of traditional bucolic tradition.

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.
