The article discusses elements of the correspondence that supplement the present findings about biographies of both correspondents, including e.g. Hacki’s interests in music and Hevelius’s belief that positional astronomical instruments with telescopes should not be used. Moreover, it presents hitherto unknown circumstances of introducing the constellation of Scutum to honor the King John III and of dedicating to him a book by Hevelius.}, title={The Correspondence of Michał Antoni Hacki and Johannes Hevelius}, type={Text}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl./Content/240659/WA303_277020_A512-67-2023_OiR-Jasinski.pdf}, keywords={Heweliusz, Jan (1611-1687), Hevelius, Johannes (1611-1687), Hacki, Michał Antoni (1630-1703), correspondence in the 17th century, scholarly contacts, Republic of Letters, Scutum (constellation)}, }
