and monetary units cause endless complications in understanding these texts. The
exact volume of the bushel in Nowy Targ at this time is not known. In neighbouring
Nowy Sacz, the korzec (bushel) was the same as in Cracow, i.e. about half of the
Danzig measure. Within thirty miles, at Czchow, it was equivalent to 1^1 / 2 Cracovian
bushels, and at Biecz 2. The monetary units in use were: 1 mark (marcalgrzywna) = 48
groschen (grossilgroszy); 1 florin (florenus/zloty) = 32 groschen; 1 grossus/grosz = 3
shillings (solidi/szelqgi) — 18 pence (denarii). Total sums were calculated in terms of
marks, grossi, and pence: mc/gr/d. - Sebastian Fabian Klonowic, Flis (Rafting.. .) lines 181-4. ed. S. Hrabec (Wroclaw,

CHAPTER 3. PIAST
- Among many introductions to Piast Poland, Bobrzynski's Dzieje Polski w zarysie
(Warsaw, 1879), i, was the standard work before the last war. The Historia Polska i,
Part 1, to 1454, ed. H. Lowmianski (Warsaw, 1957), is the main textbook for present-
day students. There are two attractive volumes in the 'Historical Confrontations' series
of the Academy of Sciences' Institute of History, i.e. Polska pierwszych Piastow, ed.
T. Manteuffel (Warsaw, 1970); and Polska dzielnicowa i zjednoczona, ed. A. Gieysztor
(Warsaw, 1972). - e.g. Slownik Historii Polski, 6th Edition (Warsaw, 1973), frontispiece; and in almost
every current textbook in Poland, and abroad; see Oscar Halecki, A History of Poland,
with additional material by A. Polonsky (London, 1978), frontispiece. - See A. P. Vlasto, The Entry of the Slavs into Christendom (Cambridge, 1970): The

School, exemplified in Treitschke's Das Deutsche Ordensland Preussen (Leipzig, 1903).
The huge bibliography is collected in E. Wermke, Bibliografie zur Geschichte von
Ostund Westpreussen (Aalen, 1962); and K. H. Lampe, Bibliografie des Deutschen
Ordens bis 1959, Bd. I (Bad Godesberg, 1975). The doyen of Polish scholars in this field
is Professor Karol Gorski, of Torun, whose recent monograph Zakon krzyzacki a
powstanie panstwa pruskiego (Wroclaw, 1977), which is also published in Italian,
summarizes over forty earlier studies. The same author's article, 'The Teutonic Order',
Mediaevalia et Humanistica, fasc. 17 (Boulder, Colorado, 1966), 20-37, reviews the
