Abstract
From the Mariological reflection of the Reformation Period. Three Teachings on the day of Visitation of the Virgin Mary: Rej — Wujek — Skarga The article presents the interpretation of three sixteenth–century sermons on the celebration of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary: from Postylla by Mikolaj Rej (1556–1566), from Postilla katolickaj mniejszaj by Jakub Wujek (1579–1580) and from Żywoty świete by Piotr Skarga (1579), also recalling the homilies on the day from the collection Postilla catholica by Wujek (1573) and from Kazania na niedziele i świeta by Skarga (1595). The article describes the teaching of a Protestant preacher and two Counter–Reformation preachers associated with the Mariological dogmas (especially the divine motherhood) and devotion to Mary (in the context of the discussion about the merits of the cult of Our Lady and manner of celebration of the Marian recollections) and monitors the moralistic content (universal and targeted at women) and shows the mutual relations of the texts.
