Along with Mikołaj Rej and Jan Kochanowski, he was one of the first Polish-speaking writers of Polish literature to be known by name .
Biernat is the author and translator of the first known Polish-language prayer book Raj duszny , which was printed in 1513 by Florian Ungler in Krakow and is the oldest surviving book printed entirely in Polish.
