Abstract

The paper explores the textual and translatory origins of Gospels and Epistles, a Polish lectionary collection by Jakub Wujek, first published in 1593, revised around 1594–1595, and reprinted over 90 times throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. After discussin g (in section 1) the basic context of the creation of the successive editions of the so-called Wujek’s Bible (Gospel pericopes included in his homiletic collection, the New Testaments of 1593 and 1594, and the Old and New Testament Bible of 1599), the corpus of material and the methodology of analysis, section 2 presents a general characterisation of the lectionary collection’s editio princeps, section 3 shows the relationship of the NT pericopes to the successive editions of “Wujek’s Bible” and the sources of translation – as well as Wujek’s translation method – whereas section 4 examines the OT pericopes. Part 5 analyses the revision of the 1593 Gospels and Epistles carried out c. 1594–1595 based on the 1594 New Testament. The summary gathers conclusions and poses research questions arising from the analyses presented.
