Ioannes DANTISCUS do Tiedemann GIESE
Heilsberg (Lidzbark Warmiński), 1538-04-15

Regest polski:

Dantyszek ma się coraz lepiej; porady, miłe towarzystwo i rozmowa z doktorem [Mikołajem Kopernikiem] były dlań lekarstwem. Za pośrednictwem doktora Dantyszek przekazuje Giesemu wiadomości dotyczące pozwu przeciwko Pawłowi [Snopkowi].

Dantyszek słyszał, że podaje się w wątpliwość jego własne prawa do prebendy oraz prawa prepozyta [Pawła Płotowskiego]; zamierza w przyszłości ukarać sprawców.

Prosi Giesego, aby wsparł Pawła [Snopka] i aby ufał w tej kwestii informacjom, powierzonym doktorowi [Mikołajowi Kopernikowi].

[1] There is no doubt that Alexander Sculteti (Scholtcze) (*ca. 1485 – †1570), doctor of canon law, cartographer, historian and friend of Copernicus; accused by Dantiscus and Stanisław Hozjusz (Hosius) of Sacramentarian heresy, in 1540 banished by King Sigismund I Jagiellon; in 1541 imprisoned by the Inquisition in Rome; after release from prison in 1544 he stayed in Rome for the rest of his life; 1509-1516 notary at the Roman Curia; 1519-1541 Canon of Ermland (Warmia), 1530-1539 Chancellor of the Ermland Chapter; 1536-1538 administrator of the komornictwo of Mehlsack (Melzak, today Pieniężno) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 299; SBKW, p. 219-220)Alexander ScultetiAlexander Sculteti (Scholtcze) (*ca. 1485 – †1570), doctor of canon law, cartographer, historian and friend of Copernicus; accused by Dantiscus and Stanisław Hozjusz (Hosius) of Sacramentarian heresy, in 1540 banished by King Sigismund I Jagiellon; in 1541 imprisoned by the Inquisition in Rome; after release from prison in 1544 he stayed in Rome for the rest of his life; 1509-1516 notary at the Roman Curia; 1519-1541 Canon of Ermland (Warmia), 1530-1539 Chancellor of the Ermland Chapter; 1536-1538 administrator of the komornictwo of Mehlsack (Melzak, today Pieniężno) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 299; SBKW, p. 219-220) was involved in the actions aimed against Paweł Snopek (*after 1480 – †1554), close collaborator of Ioannes Dantiscus; Econom of the Dominium Ermland (Warmia); in 1524 mentioned as Canon of Guttstadt (Dobre Miasto) for the first time; 1528-1554 Provost of Guttstadt; 1536-1538 Canon of Ermland (in December 1538 he was forced to resign in favour of Alexander von Suchten; in 1543 he regained this prebend but two years later had to step aside for Kaspar Hannau) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 308; SBKKDM, p. 103; SBKW, p. 227; PSB 39/3, p. 405-406)SnopekPaweł Snopek (*after 1480 – †1554), close collaborator of Ioannes Dantiscus; Econom of the Dominium Ermland (Warmia); in 1524 mentioned as Canon of Guttstadt (Dobre Miasto) for the first time; 1528-1554 Provost of Guttstadt; 1536-1538 Canon of Ermland (in December 1538 he was forced to resign in favour of Alexander von Suchten; in 1543 he regained this prebend but two years later had to step aside for Kaspar Hannau) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 308; SBKKDM, p. 103; SBKW, p. 227; PSB 39/3, p. 405-406) and Dantiscus. In December 1538, he was responsible for Snopek’s canonry being given to Alexander von Suchten (*ca. 1520 – †1576-1590), doctor of medicine, alchemist, poet; studied in Leuven, Ferrara, Rome, Bologna and Padua; as a nephew of Alexander Sculteti, accused of heresy and sentenced in 1545 to lose a canonry and hereditary property; 1538-1545 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); 1549 court physician and librarian of Ottheinrich of Palatinate-Neuburg; 1557 court physician of Sigismund Augustus in Vilnius (PSB 45/3, p. 337-338)Alexander von SuchtenAlexander von Suchten (*ca. 1520 – †1576-1590), doctor of medicine, alchemist, poet; studied in Leuven, Ferrara, Rome, Bologna and Padua; as a nephew of Alexander Sculteti, accused of heresy and sentenced in 1545 to lose a canonry and hereditary property; 1538-1545 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); 1549 court physician and librarian of Ottheinrich of Palatinate-Neuburg; 1557 court physician of Sigismund Augustus in Vilnius (PSB 45/3, p. 337-338), Sculteti’s nephew (cf.

Słownik Biograficzny Kapituły Warmińskiej, ed. by Jan Guzowski, Olsztyn, WSDMW "Hosianum", 1996 , p. 227, 240). Earlier, in 1532, he questioned Dantiscus' right to the canonry of Ermland, trying to prevent him from obtaining the Ermland coadjutorship (cf. Teresa Borawska, Tiedemann Giese (1480-1550) w życiu wewnętrznym Warmii i Prus Królewskich, Olsztyn, 1984 BORAWSKA 1984cf.
