In 1520, by the Edict of Thorn, the importation and sale of Luther’s works was prohibited; in 1523 censorship and search of residences was introduced; in the same year the heretics of Łęczyca were excommunicated, and in 1527 the synod of Łęczyca renewed the Inquisition; in 1534 the Poles were forbidden to resort to foreign educational institutions; in 1541 the Polish nobles were forbidden to harbor heretics under penalty of deprivation of nobility rights; and in 1544 the Polish clergy abroad were ordered to return home under penalty of deprivation of their benefices (Kubala, Stanisław Orzechowski, p. 100, n. 22).
