The idea of presenting the correspondence between Ioan Petru Culianu and Ugo Bianchi involves reviewing the topics specific to Bianchi’s school of History of Religion for a period of more than a decade (1974−1986) and the manner in which the Romanian-born historian of religions builds his academic career. The academic relation between Bianchi and Culianu has a major common point: an acute preoccupation with the epistemological construction of the HR discipline. What is it that separates Culianu from Bianchi and even from a large majority of the academic community in his ultimate view on religion and the religious phenomena? From a historical and religious point of view, the answer is very simple: Culianu developed a holistic theory about religion whose conceptual directions led to what Bianchi called reductio ad unum. This article focuses on presenting the biographical data correlated to the most solid scholarly education that Culianu ever had in Italy. I will also reiterate the idea that the centre of gravity of Culianu’s ultimate concerns does not necessarily fall on the methodological disputes of HR, but especially on a new understanding of cognitive sciences in general.

The theoretical writings of Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski have provided a constant focal point of scholarly interest, most often in the context of the study of problems relating to poetry’s concepts and aesthetics, the Christianization of antiquity, or the imitation of Horace. The multifaceted thought of this author, who belonged to a transitional intellectual formation in the history of European thought, can and should nonetheless likewise inspire studies in terms of the history of ideas, which place the object of knowledge at the intersection of artificially separated areas of knowledge. Sarbiewski’s treatise De acuto et arguto, devoted to his conceptist structure of the epigram, represents not only an enunciation of baroque literary theory, but also, read in dialogue with his other writings, reveals a consistent cosmological vision of reality.

Twórczość teoretyczna Macieja Kazimierza Sarbiewskiego, cieszy się stałym zainteresowaniem badaczy, którzy najwięcej uwagi poświęcają problematyce koncepcji i estetyki poezji, chrystianizacji antyku czy imitacji horacjańskiej. Wieloaspektowa refleksja autora przynależącego do „przejściowej” formacji intelektualnej w dziejach europejskiej myśli zachęca jednak równie silnie do studiów z zakresu historii idei, które sytuują przedmiot poznania na styku zautonomizowanych dziedzin nauki. Traktat De acuto et arguto poświęcony konceptycznej strukturze epigramatu, stanowi nie tylko świadectwo barokowej teorii literatury, lecz również, czytany w dialogu z innymi pismami Sarbiewskiego, odsłania konsekwentną kosmologię rzeczywistości.
