==Baroque== The literature in the period of [[Baroque in Poland|Polish Baroque]]<ref name="bookinstitute.pl">[[Stanisław Barańczak]], [http://www.bookinstitute.pl/en,ik,site,40,81,35.php Baroque in Polish poetry of the 17th century.] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140222224351/http://www.bookinstitute.pl/en,ik,site,40,81,35.php |date=22 February 2014 }} ''Instytut Książki'', Poland. Retrieved 17 September 2011.</ref> (between 1620 and 1764) was significantly influenced by the great popularization of [[Jesuit]] high schools, which offered education based on [[Latin]] [[classics]] as part of a preparation for a political career. The studies of poetry required the practical knowledge of writing both Latin and Polish poems, which radically increased the number of poets and versifiers countrywide. On the soil of humanistic education some exceptional writers grew as well: Piotr Kochanowski (1566–1620) gave his translation of [[Torquato Tasso]]'s ''[[Jerusalem Delivered]]''; [[Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski]], a [[poet laureate]], became known among European nations as ''Horatius christianus '' (Christian [[Horace]]) for his Latin writings; [[Jan Andrzej Morsztyn]] (1621–1693), an epicurean courtier and diplomat, extolled in his sophisticated poems the valors of earthly delights; and [[Wacław Potocki]] (1621–1696), the most productive writer of the Polish Baroque, unified the typical opinions of Polish [[szlachta]] with some deeper reflections and existential experiences. Notable Polish writers and poets active in this period include: {| width=100% | width=50% valign=top | * [[Sebastian Grabowiecki]] (1543–1607) * [[Mikołaj Sęp Szarzyński]] (1550–1581), ''Rymy'' * Kasper Miaskowski (1550?–1622) * [[Piotr Kochanowski]] (1566–1620) * [[Daniel Naborowski]] (1573–1640) * [[Hieronim Morsztyn]] (1581–1623) * [[Szymon Starowolski]] (1588–1656) * [[Kasper Twardowski]] (c. 1592 – c. 1641), ''Lekcyje Kupidynowe'' (Cupid's Lessons) * [[Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski]] (1595–1640) * [[Józef Bartłomiej Zimorowic]] (1597–1677) | | valign=top | * [[Samuel Twardowski]] (1600?–1661) * Szymon Zimorowic (1608?–1629), ''Roksolanki'' * [[Krzysztof Opaliński]] (1611–1655) * [[Łukasz Opaliński (1612–1666)|Łukasz Opaliński]] (1612–1666) * [[Jan Andrzej Morsztyn]] (1621–1693), leading [[Baroque in Poland|Baroque]] poet * [[Wacław Potocki]] (1621–1696), ''Wojna Chocimska'' * [[Zbigniew Morsztyn]] (Morstyn, 1628?–1689) * [[Stanisław Grochowski]] (1633–1645) * [[Jan Chryzostom Pasek]] (1636–1701), ''Pamietniki'' (memoirs) * Jan z Kijan (Dzwonowski?, early 1600s)<ref name="KB">Karol Badecki, [http://www.zwoje-scrolls.com/zwoje44/text34p.htm "Pisma Jana Dzwonowskiego (1608–1625)."] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120902030342/http://www.zwoje-scrolls.com/zwoje44/text34p.htm |date=2 September 2012 }} Wydawnictwa Akademii Umiejętności w Krakowie.
