Szkoła Braci Polskich w Lusławicach (1570-1658)
Owczarski, Adam (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 1995)
The School of Polish Brethren in Luslawice acted the longest of all Arian schools on the territory of Poland. It was established ca. 1570 by the owners of the village: Piotr Błoński and Stanisław Taszycki. Its organizer was Stanisław Wiśniowski (1562-1580), the first minister of the local Protestant community. A new building was erected in the estate of Piotr Błoński for the sake of the school. It was a secondary school, patterned upon the school in Pińczów and Lewartów which had existed earlier. The following subjects were lectured in the school: theology, metaphysics, logic, dialectic, physics, there were classes in pronunciation, and pupils were prepared to conduct religious disputes. The Polish language and Latin were introduced into the didactic syllabus. The standard of chemistry was high. It is worth emphasizing that the school taught singing and medicine. The school was headed by rector supported by the staff. The pupils came mainly from the families of Arian noblemen who had settled around Lusławice. There was no lack of young people from abroad, mainly from Hungary, Transylvania and Slovakia. Among its graduates there were many outstanding anti-trinitarian activists. The school was liquidated after the declaration of banishment law on July 20th, 1658, which removed Polish Brethren from the country.
