Events which occurred after the victorious battle of Grunwald (15 VII 1410) led to a short-lived reign of King Władysław II Jagiełło in Prussia.Therefore, those events can be seen as a precedent for the famous Prussian homage 115 years later (1525) by Prince Albrecht Hohenzollern to the Polish King Sigismund I the Old. The initiation of a new strategy by the winners of the battle of Grunwald finds confirmation in the sources. These were mainly tributes from subjects of the Teutonic Knights that were taken during the slow march of the Polish-Lithuanian army to Malbork, and during the siege of the castle. King of Poland treated Prussia as his land, and locals as his subjects. This state ended when the royal army left Prussia. That event of the year 1410. inspired further policy of Jagiellons against the Teutonic Order.

The Polish and Hungarian monarchs and their spouses, courts, as well as numerous advisers met on March 15, 1412 in Lubowla in Spiš, where a peace treaty was concluded. The article presents the circumstances of initiating Polish–Hungarian talks in the autumn of 1410 (the mission of Zawisza Czarny) and the process of Poland and Hungary becoming closer in the years 1411–1412, culminating in a congress in Lubowla. Negotiations took place in three rounds and lasted a total of several months. They were characterized by a consistent desire to achieve peace. A significant role was played in particular by the king’s four advisers: the Archbishop of Halice and then Gniezno Mikołaj Trąba, the Bishop of Poznań Wojciech Jastrzębiec, the voivode of Kraków Jan from Tarnów, and the Marshal of the Kingdom Zbigniew from Brzezie. The following part presents the poorly-known Polish list of guarantors of the Treaty of Lubowla, consisting of 50 people. Individual guarantors have been identified and described in a prosopographic manner. Attention was drawn to other examples of their guarantee of peace treaties. By analyzing the group of guarantors the author concludes that the main peace documents were written down and sealed during the meeting in the Spiš region. The guarantors of peace were also chosen there from among the dignitaries and knights of the court accompanying the monarchs. The list of guarantors of the Polish document was dominated by residents of Lesser Poland. A relatively large group of guarantors consisted of untitled knights of the court, mainly famous knights, participants of the war with the Teutonic Order in the years 1409–1411. The author recommends publishing both treaty documents as well as the set seals.

The paper presents the issue of the functioning of a narrow group of royal advisors – the so‑called “council of eight” during the summer campaign of 1410, about which Jan Długosz wrote in his chronicle. Several days after entering the Prussian territory, the king chose from among all his advisors eight trusted people led by Vytautas the Great. The circumstances in which this group was selected allow to perceive the king’s decision as a remedial measure against the difficulties in the realisation of the campaign plan. These people were chosen due to their influence with the nobility and their importance in the king’s environment. Other criteria – political allegiance, territorial origin – played a secondary role. The main idea of selecting this narrow group of advisors was to improve the efficiency of the decision‑making process in the time of war. Its functioning was visible in the key moments of the campaign (councils before and after the Battle of Grunwald, talks with Heinrich von Plauen, decision to stop the siege of Marienburg). Most of the members were given management over the castles won in Prussia from the king. This exclusive group was dissolved with the end of the summer campaign.

Artykuł analizuje odkryty na terenie wsi Brzezie k. Opatowa interesujący zabytek – połówkę ołowianego odcisku pieczęci papieskiej – bulli. Tego typu artefakty są zazwyczaj przechowywane w archiwach, w Polsce tylko około 10 bulli papieskich odkryto metodami archeologicznymi, zawsze nieopodal kościołów, a Brzezie jest jedyną miejscowością, gdzie odkryto bullę, w której nigdy nie było świątyni. Analiza sfragistyczna pozwoliła na identyfikację bulli z antypapieżem Janem XXIII. Został on zdeponowany w czasie soboru w Konstancji w 1415 r., lecz wystawił szereg dokumentów dotyczących ziem polskich i polskiego Kościoła, także dla instytucji i duchownych sandomierskich i opatowskich, które zostały omówione w artykule. Autorzy (sfragistyk, archeolog i mediewista) wskazują także okoliczności, w których bulla mogła znaleźć się w Brzeziu. W artykule zostały przedstawione sylwetki trzech duchownych, którzy mieli bliskie związki z tą miejscowością, bądź z nieistniejącym dziś dworem Lipińskich, na terenie którego znaleziono bullę. Byli to: dziekan kapituły opatowskiej Rafał z Brzezia (występuje w latach 1412-1438), kanonik wielu kapituł, sekretarz królewski i dyplomata Aleksander Brzeski (zm. w 1650 r.) oraz rektor kościoła NMP w Opatowie Karol Targowski (zm. w 1942 r.).

The article analyzes the interesting relic discovered in the village of Brzezie near Opatów, that is a half of the lead impression of a papal bull. Such artifacts are usually kept in archives; in Poland only about 10 papal bulls have been found with the use of archeological methods, always near churches, and Brzezie is the only place where a bull was found despite the fact that there has never been a church there. Sigillographic analysis has allowed identifying the bull as Antipope John XXIII’s one. He was deposed during the Council of Constance in 1415, but he issued a number of documents concerning Polish lands and the Church of Poland including the Sandomierz and Opatów Church institutions and clergy that are discussed in the article. The authors (a sillographer, an archaeologist, and a mediaevalist) also point to the conditions under which the bull might find itself in Brzezie. In the article profiles are presented of three clergymen who had close relations with that place, or with the Lipńskis’ estate that does not exist today, on the area of which the bull was found. The clergymen were: the Dean of the Opatów Chapter Rafał of Brzezie (his name occurs in the years 1412-1438), the Canon of many Chapters, the royal secretary and diplomat Aleksander Brzeski (died 1650) and the Rector of the Virgin Mary Church in Opatów Karol Targowski (died 1942).
