Respublica Litteraria in Action: Travels – Maps – Itineraries

The fourth publication in the Respublica Litteraria in Action series, part of the editorial project Corpus Epistularum Ioannis Dantisci conducted at the University of Warsaw for two decades under the direction of Anna Skolimowska and Jerzy Axer. The series features papers from participants in the scientific sessions held alongside the international council meetings of the “Registration and Publication of Ioannes Dantiscus’ Correspondence (1485–1548)” programme. The issues of the meetings deal with various aspects of the international environment in the sixteenth century, called in Latin respublica litteraria, formed by the literati, scholars and intellectuals of Europe. The latest volume, in addition to texts related to the broad topic of the representation of geographical space in the culture of the Early Modern era, includes an itinerary of Piotr Tomicki, covering the period of his tenure as Sub-Chancellor of the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland.

Keywords: Early Modern Republic of Letters, Ioannes Dantiscus, Piotr Tomicki, itineraries, map, Early Modern culture, digital editing, Olaus Magnus, House of Medici, Marcin Bielski, Giambattisa Vico.
