The aim of the article is to depict the material and creative background of funerary art in the Baroque era. It presents the circumstances of the origins of some of the works written after the death of Krzysztof Radziwiłł Piorun and his son, Janusz, which were commissioned by the family of the deceased. The memory of the Voivode of Vilnius Voivodeship was honoured in 1604 by lecturers from Leipzig and Basel, including, among others, the author of the funeral speech, Mateusz Dresserus. From the correspondence, it emerges that he was provided with the materials necessary to draw it up by the Radziwiłłs’ servant, Salomon Rysiński. It was also Rysiński who was asked for assistance by Caspar Dornau, an academic from Brzeg, who was listing the information he needed in order to write a funerary panegyric for Janusz Radziwiłł. Rysiński pointed to other potential creators of occasional texts, mainly the clients of the Biržai court. Foreign authors were remunerated for their funerary panegyrics, whereas the court poets could expect a bequest or an annual payment for their service.

The article deals with the funeral of Anna Vasa, the sister of the Polish ruler Sigismund III Vasa. Young Anna Vasa decided to change her religion which influenced her further life. In consequence, her remains could not receive a solemn funeral for the next 11 years following her death. This text aims at analysing the work by German author Martin Opitz, which was ordered in commemoration by the Swedish princess’ nephew, Wladyslaw IV. Martin Opitz’s work, which undoubtedly brought him fame, is being analysed based on the rhetoric devices used by the author as well as the parenetic model of a woman that he created, based on the examples of the virtues of the deceased princess.

vol. 22: Warunkiem trwałości jest przemiana. Parafrazy, kontynuacje i aluzje literackie

The 17th century silva rerum from the collections of the Bavorovianum (manuscript 1332/II), currently stored in The Lviv National Vasyl Stefanyk Scientific Library of Ukraine, contains copies of unknown occasional works about the Radziwiłł family from Birże. The most elaborate set consists of mourning poems for prince Krzysztof (d. 1640): "Lament na pogrzeb księcia pana wojewody wileńskiego…" [The lament for the funeral of sir prince voivode of Vilnius], three poems "Korony temuż" [The crown to thee],  the tombstone, and "Na chorągiew temuż" [To the flag to thee]. The texts are preceded by a foreward that introduces the author, Walerian Gorzycki, and characterises the works, clarifying the evoked settings and referring to the genres issues. Lament… emphasises primarily the hetman’s military merits and his religious patronage. The three poems refer to the motif of crowns awarded to victorious commanders and commemorate the liberation of Smoleńsk and Mitawa. The poem "Na chorągiew…" is a Polish language version of a latin inscription placed on the flag prepared for the funeral of Radziwiłł that has been documented in 17th century prints (by Siestrzencewicz and Kmita).
