The Political and Ecclesiastical Role of Cardinal Fryderyk Jagiellończyk: Recent Historiography and Research Perspectives*

Dominik Szulc

Abstract

The text combines the elements of a review and an arguing article. Presenting the circumstances of publishing the very book, the author discusses its contents, and evaluates it. The evaluation, though, is not positive. The author of the article pays attention to numerous factographic mistakes, gaps in the literature used or doubtful concluding. Apart from that, the text aims at showing the problems related to the course of Fryderyk Jagiellończyk’s career that Natalia Nowakowska either did not cover or just mentioned them. Among these one should enumerate the necessity to a re‑discussion of the relationships between Fryderyk and his most important tutor Filip Kallimach, the circumstances of appointing a prince a bishop of Kraków by a pope, and Filip’s attempts of succession to Warmia bishopric after Łukasz Watzenrode (especially in the light of maintained acts of bishops and Warmia chapter, relationships between brothers, particularly with Zygmunt Stary), Fryderyk’s political position in the Crown a day before Jan Olbracht’s death or the circumstances of the cardinal’s participation in Aleksander Jagiellończyk’s argument with the chapter in Kraków in 1502. The article pays attention to the necessity to separately treat not only personal politics led by Fryderyk in the chapters in Kraków and Gniezno in the future, but also his relationship with older canons, mainly from the circle of archbishop Zbigniew Oleśnicki. It aims at, above all, recognizing how their cooperation worked, how Fryderyk gained them or how they gained his confidence.
