LTLDK poetikos ir retorikos rankraščiai yra sulaukę nemažo mokslininkų dėmesio, tačiau jų antraštės nėra tyrinėtos, nors jos yra svarbi rankraščio visumos dalis. Šio straipsnio tikslas – rankraštinių veikalų antraščių, kurios yra ne tik savos epochos ženklas, bet liudija ir literatūroje bei kultūroje vykusius procesus, tyrimas. Pagrindiniai tyrimo uždaviniai: išsiaiškinti, ar XVII–XVIII a. rankraščių antraštes veikė tie patys dėsniai kaip ir spausdintų kūrinių; nustatyti, kokios Renesanso ir Baroko epochos tendencijos atsispindi to meto rankraščių antraštėse. Tyrimo objektas – poetikos ir retorikos paskaitų konspektai iš Vilniaus, Kauno, Kražių, Naugarduko, Nesvyžiaus, Gardino, Slonimo, Daugpilio ir kitų LDK kolegijų.

ENArticle "Senųjų Lietuvos knygų antraštės“ (“Titles of the Old Lithuanian Books”) by Eglė Patiejūnienė published in the journal "Archivum Lithuanicum more" than 10 years ago inspired the theme of the current article. It sought to find out what is characteristic of the titles of literature creations and books published in Lithuania in the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries; whether a title and name is the same thing, what are their properties and particularity. The purpose of the current article is to investigate whether the same laws affected the manuscript tradition of the seventeenth-eighteenth centuries as the printed one, what tendencies of the epochs of the Renaissance and Baroque are reflected in the titles of manuscripts of that time. For the research material there were chosen not fiction, but syllabi of lectures in poetics and rhetoric of the seventeenth-eighteenth centuries from Vilnius, Kaunas, Kražiai, Novogrodek, Nesvizh, Grodna, Slonim, Daugavpils, and other Jesuit colleges of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The research revealed that in the middle and end of the seventeenth century tendencies of the Renaissance epoch are still clearly visible: appellations are clear and simple, logically composed from a few most relevant components (a name of lectures’ course of poetics and rhetoric, name of a lecturer that read this course, name of a student who wrote it, also place and time). Absolutely different situation is observable in the manuscripts of the eighteenth century. Appellations of the poetics and rhetoric courses are getting more complicated, full of allusions, references, enigmas, and other decorations characteristic to the Baroque stylistics. Especially often rhetoric is allegorically linked to certain ornaments, gate or palace where it is possible to learn to express one’s thoughts.Also, rhetoric is often called "Regina artium" and "Regina animorum". The explored manuscript titles of the eighteenth century matches all the rules applied to any creation of the Baroque epoch: to gladden, surprise, dumbfound, to ask a riddle, arouse emotions. They are nothing else, but the most real and most visible sign argumentative of the Baroque epoch. [From the publication]
