The author of the paper indicates several aspects which connect the texts describing the battle of Khotyn in 1673. Epical attempts at showing those events complied with the epical model known as ‘native heroicum’, which was popular on Polish lands in those days. According to this model, the primary rule of verismo was combined with attempts at making narration more attractive. Some of them have been described in this paper. Moreover, the author discussed the method of depicting Tatar‑Turkish armies in the works, paying attention to their abundance. The exemplary material was derived, above all, from voluminous poems by Jan Ślizień, Mateusz Kuligowski, Samuel Leszczyński and Zbigniew Morsztyn.

The aim of this study is to determine the scope of a future monograph, which will be devoted to Old Polish exhortations, and show the key issues concerning this genre, based on the current state of research. The author’s reflections focus on Polish literature of the 16th and 17th centuries – heroic epics, occasional poetry and prose, as well as orations. The starting point for the author’s deliberations on the subject is the ancient genesis of exhortation as a form found in the heroic epics and historical works. In the subsequent subsections of this paper, the author brings up the statements of Polish scholars, who explored the subject of exhortations, including Juliusz Nowak-–Dłużewski, Alojzy Sajkowski, Jadwiga Kuczyńska, Roman Krzywy and Renata Gałaj-–Dempniak. Based on Teresa Michałowska’s conclusions concerning genealogy, the author proposes a hypothesis that exhortation is a separate literary genre, which uses a group of topoi. The future monograph is intended to show the functioning of exhortation in treatises on poetics and rhetoric as a separate literary genre. The author’s objectives are also to showcase the presence of this genre in lyrical and epic works, as well as present oration as a self-–contained and non-–self-–contained expression in terms of polygraphy and content. The additional objective of the new work is to show the changing specificity of topoi in exhortations, which were to be used within parenthesis, for the effective formation of reality.

Celem studium jest określenie w oparciu o dotychczasowy stan badań zakresu problemowego przyszłej monografii, która poświęcona byłaby staropolskim ekshortacjom i pokazywała węzłowe dla niej zagadnieia. Przedmiotem refleksji jest literatura polska XVI i XVII wieku: epika bohaterska, poezja i proza okolicznościowa, oratorstwo. Punkt wyjścia dla rozważań stanowi antyczna geneza ekshortacji jako formy spotykanej w epice bohaterskiej i dziełach historycznych. W dalszej części rozważań przedstawia się stanowiska polskich badaczy, którzy pisali o ekshortacjach, między innymi: Juliusza Nowaka-Dłużewskiego, Alojzego Sajkowskiego, Jadwigi Kuczyńskiej, Romana Krzywego i Renaty Gałaj-Dempniak. W oparciu o ustalenia Teresy Michałowskiej z zakresu genologii stawia się tezę, iż ekshortacja jest osobnym gatunkiem literackim posługującym się zespołem toposów. Przyszła monografia ma ukazać funkcjonowanie ekshortacji w traktatach z zakresu poetyki i retoryki, jako osobnego gatunku literackiego, jej obecność w liryce, epice i oratorstwie, jako wypowiedź samoistną i niesamoistną poligraficznie i treściowo, jak też zmienną swoistość topiki ekshortacyjnej, która służyć miała skutecznemu formowaniu rzeczywistości w ramach parentezy.

The article is a review of the most important trends in the development of the Polish epic in the 16th and 17th centuries. In the absence of significant traditions of knightly works, the creation of Polish heroic poetry should be associated primarily with the humanistic movement, whose representatives set a heroic epic at the top of the hierarchy of genres and recognized 'Eneid' as its primary model. The postulate proposed first by the Renaissance and later by the Baroque authors did not lead to the creation of a ‘real’ epic in Poland. The translations of: the Virgil’s epic poem (1590) by Andrzej Kochanowski and Book 3 of 'The Iliad' by Jan Kochanowski can be regarded as the genre substitutes. These translations seem to test whether the young Polish poetic language is able to bear the burden of an epic matter. Then again, the works of Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski on the Latin 'Lechias' (the 1st half of the 17th century), which was to present the beginnings of the Polish state, were not completed. Polish Renaissance authors preferred themes from modern or even recent history, choosing 'Bellum civile' by Lucan as their general model but they did not refrain from typically heroic means in the presentation of the subject. This is evidenced by such poems as 'The Prussian War' (1516) by Joannis Vislicensis or 'Radivilias' (1592) by Jan Radwan. The Latin epic works were followed by the vernacular epic in the 17th century, when the historical epic poems by Samuel Twardowski and Wacław Potocki were created, as well as in the 18th century (the example of 'The Khotyn War' by Ignacy Krasicki). The publication of Torquato Tasso’s 'Jerusalem delivered' translation by Piotr Kochanowski in 1618 introduced to the Polish literature a third variant of an epic poem, which is a combination of a heroic poem and romance motives. The translation gained enormous recognition among literary audiences and was quickly included in the canon of imitated works, but not as a model of an epic, but mainly as a source of ideas and poetic phrases (it was used not only by epic poets). The exception here is the anonymous epos entitled 'The siege of Jasna Góra of Częstochowa', whose author spiced the historical action of the recent event with romance themes, an evident reference to the Tasso’s poem. The Polish translation of Tasso’s masterpiece also contributed to the popularity of the ottava rima, as an epic verse from the second half of the 17th century (previously the Polish alexandrine dominated as the equivalent of the ancient hexameter). This verse was used both in the historical and biblical epic poems, striving to face the rhythmic challenge.
