Summary/Abstract: The review refers to Radosław Grześkowiak’s study (“A Guide to the Heavens. The Literary Reception of Herman Hugo’s »Pia desideria« in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth,” 2023) on Polish (handwritten, printed and decorative) translations and adaptations of fragments from a Dutch Jesute Herman Hugon’s book Pia desideria (1624). The assessment points at, inter alia, Radosław Grześkowiak’s observations that broaden the knowledge on emblematic literature in the First Polish Republic and on the methodological assumptions that prove vital to emblem studies.
