Thanks JKP, excellent findings! How do you manage to find all this stuff?!
I would like to develop a bit of interpretation.
I have seen the Runeberg reference to the Martin Wroblicius's exlibris before. But the Christie's East 1981 catalog is something new. It must refer to another book, because in the Runeberg reference it is said that the exlibris is attached (opklæbet - which I guess is rather "glued" than "clipped"?) to the inner side of the binding (Paa Bindets Inderside), while the Christie's East reference says that the exlibris is in folio 2. Interesting that both are dated to 1626.
About Michael and Laurentius Wroblicius I wrote above in this thread. They are surely brothers, since both of them were born in the same place. Notably, they are both listed as members of SJ. (I also have noted to myself that the story is constantly revolving around Jesuits).
Very good finding! First of all, it shows that Wroblicius originated from Silesia. I have had a feeling that the real (native) surname behind the Latinised "Wroblicius" is something more of German (smth like ""Wrobbel") or Polish (smth like "Wróbel" - literally, "sparrow") origin. Now that gets a confirmation by this Wroblicius's originating from Silesia.
I would note that the incident of bad behaviour refers not to Wroblicius, but to student number 9, Matthaeus (Mathaeus) Dlugos, also from Silesia.
But what gets more interesting is that we also find Martinus Wroblicius Mstoviensis Polonus under number 120! The town of Mstów is also situated in Silesia. So this guy is Silesian as well.
Since Prague universities seem to have been flooded by students from Silesia, I would be careful as to whether Albertus Wroblicius and Martinus Wroblicius Mstoviensis Polonus were relatives.
I wonder why you call him "Albertus M. Wroblicius", and not simply "Albertus Wroblicius" - any reference for that? Where is the following assumption from:
?
This phrase I fail to understand. "Ab Anno 1611 ad Mensem Martium, diem 16 indictione septima" means "in the year 1611, in the month of March, on 16th day of the seventh indiction". However (as I calculated), 1611 belongs to the ninth indiction, not to the seventh one. Next, if the guy found the book in 1624, then it is not clear what is the 1611 dating about. Furthemore, it is not clear whether it was Albertus Wroblicius who found the book, or Albertus Wroblicius was the previous owner of the book found by the author of the inscription. Last, I completely fail to understand "Baccal parochus Maioris Bitessi". What is "baccal" and what is "Maioris Bitessi" (suppose it's in genitive?).
"Matrikel" means the list of enrolled, not of graduated. I have suspected before that Wroblicius must have had a Graz page in his biography. This is because his 1611 book in co-authorship with Lamormain was printed in Graz, and Lamormain himself is known to have resided in Graz in 1611. So this reference would be a nice add to that, but... the bad side of it is that these are "Matrikeln" of 1630 - 1662, i.e. long past 1611. Unless our guy Wroblicius decided to obtain another degree at the age of no less than 45 - 50 (and "Seite 374" suggests us to shift the year even much further than 1630), or this is some other Albertus Wroblicius. But we don't know what is the context in which "Albertus V/Wroblicius" is mentioned in this book. The full copy of this 1980 edition should be observed, as well as Vol. 25-26 of "Acta Universitatis Carolinae" (ed. 1985) to delve deeper into details.
About priesthood in Kojetin. Albertus Wroblicius is recorded there from 24.4.1614 (see my reference above), and the closing date is not provided. In any case, he stayed there no longer than 1625, since under 1625 another priest is mentioned. So the Rezác's reference may mean one of two things: either Rezác simply confuses 1614 and 1617, or Wroblicius still stayed in Kojetin in 1617.
The current bottomline is that we still are not sure whether Wroblicius died before the death of Sinapius (Sep. 1622) or later? That is important to narrow down the range of circumstances under which Sinapius could acquire the book number 4.
