Samuel Wysocki (1706-1771) - Piarist, preacher. He taught pronunciation at the Piarist Order, and later was active as a preacher in Cracow and Warsaw. Under the pseudonym "Samuel S. Floriano" he published some 25 works.
What Estreicher writes about the offered position: "The work is valuable, and Wysocki deserves a place among Augustinian writers for it and his other works."
