Page from the book "Chronicle, that is the History of the Whole World"

Full title: Kronika, tho iesth Historya swiata. This is the first cosmography to appear in the Polish and Lithuanian Commonwealth. The author representing the bold thought and his works as endangering Christianity were included in the list of forbidden books. The readers “corrected” some chapters, statements, and thoughts in Bielski’s books. The author added the woman, Pope Joan, to the list of popes. Discontented readers pointed out that this is a false and heretical text. The paragraph about the woman pope was deleted, and the sentences with the most inappropriate content were obscured in black ink to make them completely unreadable.
