Summary

The article highlights the corollaria in early modern dissertations from the university of Uppsala. It is based on some 1750 corollaries collected from about 200 dissertations. They are examined with regard to terms, form, function and contents. They disappear around 1700 but reappear occasionally towards the end of the 18th century. Their functions are various and not easily grasped. Apparently, they often were, placed as an attachment, the subject of the disputation instead of the wording of the actual dissertation, especially when it seemed necessary to formulate questions or propositions that could be easily argued about. This becomes obvious at the end of the researched period. As for contents, most of them repeat standard learning. Some of them are provocative, while others produce facetious paradoxes. All in all, the corollaries, in their simple linguistic outfit, reflect everyday learned stuff and current attitudes and values.
