Interesting article on good sources, Polish and offline sources accepted AGF. The hook is fine and sourced, but rather general. What do you think about mentioning some of "depiction of exotic times and locales, royal and intentional politics, as well as graphic and detailed description of tortures and suffering"? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:45, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

Sure, please suggest an ALT1 that incorporates them. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 14:51, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

I hope it's not over the world limit. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 15:03, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

ALT2: ... that Polish Jesuit Piotr Skarga's Lives of the Saints (1579) contained graphic and detailed description of tortures and suffering?

all approved, I prefer ALT2, not because of the word limit, but the juxtaposition ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:14, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
