The introduction to Valvasor’s The Glory of the Duchy of Carniola contains numerous Latin poems–partly bilingual, with translations into Slovene or Croatian–of which only the Croatian elegies by Pavao Ritter-Vitezović have received some attention in the recent years. Other poems have remained more or less overlooked, including, for instance, the epigram by the Ljubljana-based solicitor and proponent of the founding of the Academia Operosorum, J. G. Dolničar, who conceived of his short eulogy to the author as a court case. The Applausus, deeply rooted in the classical tradition and composed by the pseudonymous Josef Sisentschelli, has become famous only in its Slovenian version as “the first literary apopemptic in Slovenian language”. The panegyric elegy by the Carniolan physician Petermann and the hexametric poem by Johannes Gabriel Majer are yet to receive scholarly attention as well.V uvodu k Valvasorjevi Slavi vojvodine Kranjske so številne latinske pesnitve – deloma dvojezične, s prevodi v slovenščino oziroma hrvaščino –, od katerih so bile v zadnjem času le hrvaške elegije Pavla Ritterja-Vitezovića deležne manjše pozornosti. Druge so doslej ostale bolj ali manj neopažene, kakor na primer epigram ljubljanskega pravnika in pobudnika ustanovitve Akademije operozov Janeza Gregorja Dolničarja, ki si je svoj kratki slavospev avtorju zamislil kot sodni primer. V klasični tradiciji napisana »napotnica« psevdonimnega Josefa Sisentschellija je doslej zaslovela zgolj v svoji slovenski verziji kot »prva literarna napotnica v slovenskem jeziku«. Tudi panegirična elegija kranjskega zdravnika Janeza Krstnika Petermanna in heksametrična pesnitev Johannesa Gabriela Majerja sta doslej čakali znanstvene obdelave
