[1 ] Dantiscus is exaggerating slightly when he claims that Chojeński has given him hope as to Fabian – the Cracow bishop only promised to fulfill Dantiscus’ request as to the queen, meaning he would shield him from her anger (cf. cf. Jan CHOJEŃSKI to Ioannes DANTISCUS Cracow, 1537-10-11, CIDTC IDL 3607Chojeński’s letter to Dantiscus, Cracow, October 11, 1537, orig. BCz, 1595, p. 845-848cf. Jan CHOJEŃSKI to Ioannes DANTISCUS Cracow, 1537-10-11, CIDTC IDL 3607)

[2 ] At this time, Dantiscus’ plenipotentiary in Rome was Warmia canon Dietrich von Rheden (Teodoryk Reden) (*1492 – †1556), doctor of both canon and civil law. Rheden spent most of his life in Rome where he was dealing with, among other things, the affairs of the Ermland Chapter; 1532-1551 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); Canon of Mainz and Lübeck; in 1551 he was appointed Bishop of Lübeck, but he did not accept the dignity (KOPICZKO 2, p. 263; SBKW, p. 200)Dietrich von RhedenDietrich von Rheden (Teodoryk Reden) (*1492 – †1556), doctor of both canon and civil law.

[4 ] In connection with Dantiscus being postulated as Warmia bishop, King Sigismund I asked him to resign from the parish of Gołąb (Cracow diocese), of which Dantiscus was the parish priest, for the benefit of Samuel Maciejowski (cf. cf. Sigismund I Jagiellon to Ioannes DANTISCUS Tarnów, 1537-07-10, CIDTC IDL 5689Sigismund I’s letter to Dantiscus from Tarnów, July 10, 1537, orig. AGAD, AZ 2999, No. 157cf. Sigismund I Jagiellon to Ioannes DANTISCUS Tarnów, 1537-07-10, CIDTC IDL 5689). Jerzy Starnawski – on the basis of rather questionable sources – believes Dantiscus received the Gołąb parish in 1506 at the latest and not, as his biographers claim, in 1521 (cf. cf. STARNAWSKI 1977 p. 194 Starnawski, p. 194cf. STARNAWSKI 1977 p. 194 ); Maciejowski received the presentation of the Gołąb parish on July 10, 1537 (cf. cf. DWORZACZEK 1985 p. 81 Dworzaczek, p. 81cf. DWORZACZEK 1985 p. 81 ); cf. also letters cf. Ioannes DANTISCUS to Tiedemann GIESE Löbau (Lubawa), 1537-07-30, CIDTC IDL 1678of Dantiscus to canon custos Tiedeman Giese, Lubawa, July 30, 1537cf.

Dantiscus' record Samuel MACIEJOWSKI Löbau (Lubawa) 1537-11-16, CIDTC IDT 164Dantiscus’ document of resignation from the current year’s income from the Gołąb parish in favor of Maciejowskicf. Dantiscus' record Samuel MACIEJOWSKI Löbau (Lubawa) 1537-11-16, CIDTC IDT 164. NB Z. Nowak claims that Dantiscus benefited from the Gołąb income until 1541, and that his brother Jerzy was curate there permanently (cf. cf. NOWAK 1982 p. 159 Nowak, p.159cf. NOWAK 1982 p. 159 )

[5 ] Perhaps Dantiscus is referring to the recent disagreements with Malbork treasurer Stanisław Kostka, as a result of which Kostka accused the Prussian Council before the king of conspiracy. The conflict was assuaged at the autumn Prussian assembly of 1536 and, contrary to the fears Dantiscus expresses here, was not renewed.(cf.cf. BODNIAK p. 283-284 Bodniak, p.283-284cf. BODNIAK p. 283-284 )
