Summary/Abstract: The poet’s imitating action situates in the circle of aemulatio and are overt or covert in nature.The reasons for source (un)coverage are worth attention. When emulating, Paszkowski made use ofthe means covering imitation: appositio, detractio, transpositio, immutatio, copia, brevitas.References, allusions, reconstructions and overtaking of a foreign text prove an outstandingknowledge of his time, as well as works published in the 16th century. He also used the Bible andmythology. But he did not refer to historical sources, including the achievements of the ancient writ‑ers. He knew the history thanks to the chronicles. Most willingly he would refer to the poetry, diaryprose, but also calendars and news preferring the official and highbrow literature in the end.Paszkowski revealed a compiliation nature when it brought about erudition. He hid borrowingswhen it came to one or two texts. He indicated the source of monoimitation when he competed withthe model. Entering into a dialogue with a well‑known poet (Jan Kochanowski), he left the recogni‑tion of the references to the author’s intelligence. Works by Sebastian Fabian Klonowic, AbrahamRożniatowski and Stanisław Grochowski were, on the other hand, treated as a foundation for hisown voice, however changing the situational context of derived text sequences. He totally hid thereferences to Maciej Stryjkowski.
