Sažetak
On 2 March 1539 the Hungarian king János Szapolyai (1487–1540) married Princess Isabella Jagiełło of Poland (1519–1559). A number of wedding poems (epithalamia) were written for this event, by poets such as Stanislaus Glandinus, Stanislaus Kleryka, Sebastianus Marschevius, Venceslaus Schamotuliensis, etc. The Croatian (and Hungarian) humanist Michael Verancius also wrote an epithalamion for the occasion. In the first part of the paper a brief historical overview of the royal wedding in Cracow and in Buda is given, followed by a brief description of the genre of epithalamion. Since Verancius’ poem has come down to us in two versions, printed and manuscript, the second part of the paper examines and compares these two versions. At the end of the paper a critical edition of the poem is published.
