Description

In Polonia Refomata Piotr Wilczek brings together selected aspects of Polish early modern religious history and literature, introducing them from a new perspective and emphasising the great role of Poland's radical Reformation in European intellectual life. At the same time, the author presents the varieties of religious experience and expression to be found in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonweath, and questions certain myths about Poland's Reformation and Counter-Reformation history and culture. The book's general introduction about Polish 'religion on the perifery' is followed by essays on the reception of John Calvin's works, the role of Socinianism, religious polemics and the major religious poets of the early modern period. -back of book
