- The article is an attempt to show different connections between modern science in 17th century and esthetics of Baroque. Culture progress had been connected with breaking the Renaissance rules of art – clarity and harmony, as well as with appearance of a new kind of art – varied, unclear and marvel. In both branches of knowledge erudition and necessity of getting to know as much as possible were the most important ideas; this became the background of particular Baroque occurrence: encyclopedism and erudition. The popular science literature genre known as scienta curiosa is strongly connected to those terms. The main subject of analysis is a treatise written by Wojciech Tylkowski, containing knowledge of mathematics, natural history and philosophy. Due to its form – which uses conceptual solutions, tricky, ridiculous questions and description of marvels, monsters and other curiosities – it is one of the most interesting examples of “practice esthetics” – using esthetics for popularization purposes.
