The essay examines the references of Orpheus and Eurydice by Czesław Miłosz to earlier literary incarnations of myth of Orpheus (from Virgil and Ovid to Rilke). It indicates the internal context of a memorial poem, which are not only senilia of the poet, but also reflections on suffering, death, responsibility of the artist for words and rebellion of poetry against nothingness, dispersed in many earlier works starting from the 1930s.

The article shows forms that neo-romantic messianism takes in Wojciech Wencel’s poetry volumes Epigonia and Polonia aeterna. The Polish nation, understood as a primordial community, is depicted through the prism of national-conservative clichés, taken from freely interpreted Sarmatian literature and Mickiewicz’s romanticism. The hero of Wencel’s poems has a sense of mission as a guide for his compatriots through the traps of late modernity and as a guardian of national memory. The language of this poetry, ostentatiously old-fashioned, serves to sacralize history seen as a continuum of struggle and martyrdom. Both books demonstrate a strongly internalized, martyrological-heroic concept of the messianic calling of Poland – although not expressed as directly as in the preceding volume, De profundis.
