Jura (Jerzy) Gajdzica from Cisownica Mała near Ustroń, situated near Cieszyn, a farmer and a cart driver by trade, was a peasant bibliophile and a memoirist. His love for the printed word developed under the influence of his extraordinary respect for the Holy Bible, which was typical of him and other Poles belonging to the Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession, who constituted the majority of the population of the Cieszyn district. Jura Gajdzica marked his books with ownership prints: the oldest, handmade peasant ex-libris known in Poland, and a stamp. He left a memoir entitled Dlo pamięci rodu ludzkiego and a chronicle entitled Nieco z kroniki Cieszęśki. Memoirs concerned the years 1805-1823, e.g. wars of Austria and Russia with Napoleon. Jura Gajdzica as well as his memoir and some of the bookplates were discovered by Jan Wantuła (1877-1953) from Ustroń in Cieszyn Silesia, a farmer and a worker, as well as a book lover, bibliognost and a historian.

The article engages in the polemics over the findings of research on the supporters of the Lutheran Reformation in the monarchy of King Sigismund the Old, presented in the study by Natalia Nowakowska, published in 2018. In the author’s opinion, the search query was conducted selectively, and some readings of Latin sources and their interpretation raise objections, as evidenced by, among other things, the case of the Cracow goldsmith Matthias Bochsler (Guthslar), dealt with in December 1532, and registered along with several other trials of Lutheranism, in the court book of Cracow bishops catalogued under the shelfmark AEp 2. The sources analysed by the British scholar do not fundamentally change the opinion of the small impact of Martin Luther’s ideas on the Polish society in the 1520s and 1530s, except for Prussian cities and elite groups of burghers of German origin active in Lesser Poland (Cracow) and Greater Poland (Poznań).

Artykuł podejmuje polemikę z wynikami badań na temat zwolenników reformacji luterańskiej w monarchii Zygmunta Starego, które zostały przedstawione w opublikowanym w 2018 r. studium Natalii Nowakowskiej. Zdaniem autora kwerenda została przeprowadzona w sposób selektywny, a niektóre odczyty łacińskich źródeł i ich interpretacja budzą zastrzeżenia, o czym świadczy m.in. sprawa krakowskiego złotnika Macieja Bochslera (Guthslara) rozpatrywana w grudniu 1532 r. i odnotowana wraz z kilkunastoma innymi procesami o luteranizm w krakowskiej księdze biskupiej o sygnaturze AEp 2. Przeanalizowane przez brytyjską uczoną źródła nie zmieniają zasadniczo ocen o słabym oddziaływaniu idei Marcina Lutra na społeczeństwo polskie w latach dwudziestych i trzydziestych XVI w., z wyjątkiem miast pruskich i elitarnych grup mieszczan pochodzenia niemieckiego działających w Małopolsce (Kraków) i Wielkopolsce (Poznań).
