The essay concentrates on the question to what extent William of Rosenberg and Peter Vok were informed about confessional frictions in the Kingdom of Poland. It introduces one of the most remarkable written newspapers, which were sent to them. The report concerns unrests in Krakow in May 1591. The unknown reporter described transformation of a festive service in the main parish church into a campaign against evangelic chapels. Although the chapels were initially defended, they were destroyed within several days. The mentioned newspaper, which has survived in the State Regional Archives in Třeboň, is characterized by certain confusion alongside the dramatic recount. This is because the writer drew information from an extinct source, which he hastily tried to shorten. Such a report thus demanded comparison with other contemporary materials, much like understanding aspects in which the described assault followed previous unrests, which features were new and why the author contacted noblemen who lived abroad.

This study discusses a pamphlet written in Latin in the year 1574 which had until now remained unpublished and has been preserved in the State Regional Archives in Třeboň in the collection Historica Třeboň. The unknown author of the rhyming text entitled De obitu Caroli IX, Galliarum regis, et de Henrico, Polonorum rege was reacting to the situation in the Polish-Lithuanian state after the flight of Henry III of Valois during the night of the 18th to the 19th of June, 1574. This episode was evaluated in context of the history of the French Valois dynasty, against whose members the author adopted a sharply critical stance (among other things, he emphasizes their share in the bloody St. Bartholomew’s Day massacre in August 1572). However, he presents the Polish aristocrats in a positive light: in the pamphleteer’s conception they were denying the undeserving King Henry the opportunity to advance a bad form of government. This study offers a detailed interpretation of the pamphlet within the wider context of Polish-Lithuanian union relations to the Habsburg Monarchy and the Kingdom of France in the period of the contest for the Polish crown (1572–1573). An integral part of this contribution is also an edition that makes the source herein analyzed available to interested researchers. In particular, historians who are concerned with topics relating to early modern political thinking, communication and public relations can draw upon it.
