Most of articles on patronage in Greater Poland from the 16th to the 18th century concerns a direct dependence between the patron and the client. Thus, the present work concentrates on a specific kind of patronage – scholarship foundations, which are only briefly mentioned in historiography. Some of them are not known. “Fundatio orzelkoviana” serves as an example here to show the need for detailed relevant case studies to supplement the available data. Founded by Marcin Orzeł in 1566, the foundation existed for many years and helped young people to achieve academic education. Ius patronatus and control of the foundation was assigned to the Catedral Chapter of Poznań. Admittedly, this Chapter was interested in keeping the foundation in good condition, e. g. by being aware of economic and financial factors influencing the foundation and by carrying out the recovery in debts, be it rents or fees. The source material for the present discussion comes from the Main Archive for Poznań Archdiocese (mainly the acts of the Cathedral Chapter of Poznań, Consistory Court and the canonical visitation of Bishop Tholibowski).

The Czech Republic and Central Europe have been recently suffering from frequent floods. However, drought as an opposite hydrometeorological extreme may be equally threatening great natural disaster. The Czech Republic has been experiencing an extremely severe spell of drought in these years. It started already in the autumn of 2014 and significantly deepened during the year 2015. The study of historical and contemporary sources mentioning drought periods in the past indicate there were four cases of this climatic extreme between the 16th and 18th centuries, in the years 1540, 1590, 1616 and 1790. In those years, the natural disaster afflicted the whole region of Czech Lands as well as some other countries of Central Europe. This year 2016 will see the 400th anniversary of disastrous drought period occurring in 1616.
