The article presents Juliusz Slowacki's diary from his East voyage (1836-1837) to Grece, Egypt, Palestine, and Lebenon lost for 70 years. The diary was found in the collection of Russian State Library in Moscow. Considered to have been burnt with most of manuscripts of Krasinski Library after the Warsaw Uprising in autumn 1944, it was actually borrowed in 1939 to be displayed at high school in Krzemieniec. It was probably in Krzemieniec that it was confiscated by the Soviet authorities after September 17th, 1939. The diary, written by Slowacki himself, contains a number of popular pieces with A Voyage to the Holy Land from Naples, notes, voyage diary, daily records, and so-far unpublished landscape sketches. Diary notes, poetic works and samples build an interconnected set of the poet's live report while facing the exotic culture of Greece, Egypt, and the Near East. The diary is the basic source of the history of Slowacki's voyage to the East and invites a new research into the poet's artistic process.

The article calls attention to Juliusz Slowacki's diary which has for over fifty years been regarded as lost (it was supposed to have been burnt in Warsaw during the WW II) and now found by Henryk Glebocki, PhD, in Moscow. The diary proves immensely crucial for Slowacki studies, mainly as a collection of the poet's priceless manuscripts and sketches reporting his East voyage. Kalinowska discusses the editorial history of the poem A Voyage to the Holy Land from Naples - the most important of the texts that the diary contains. A detailed description of the 74 pages diary and its content is provided by Manfred Kridl in his preface to the 1925 edition of A Voyage to the Holy Land from Naples, and then in the 1956 introduction to the poem in question published in Juliusz Slowacki's Dziela wszystkie (Collected Works) volume 9 edited by Juliusz Kleiner.

The essay offers a rereading of Juliusz Slowacki's puzzling and semantically complex masterwork 'Salomea's Silver Dream' (1843) in the light of postcolonial theory. The author applies Edward Said's concept of orientalism and Homi Bhabha's notions of hybridity, ambivalence, and mimicry to the study of representation of Polish and Ukrainian literary characters and their interactions in the drama against the historical and cultural background of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and Polish Romanticism. Unlike most of his contemporaries, Slowacki did not subscribe to the discourse of orientalisation of Ukraine as Poland's 'Other', that dominated Polish writings of his era. The paper concludes that although 'Salomea's Silver Dream' was written by a Polish Romantic poet, it succeeded in transcending the limitations of the European political and literary ideas by offering a unique postcolonial perspective on Polish-Ukrainian relations, one in which the Polish presence in Ukraine was problematized, the Ukrainian agency was mobilized, and Ukrainian self-esteem was boosted.

The article is devoted to the activities of Boris Pasternak as an interpreter – one of the greatest interpreters of the twentieth century. Its aim is to present the opinions of researchers on the overall vision of the Soviet literary translation and analysis of selected works of Polish literature. In addition, the concept will be presented on the concrete implementation of the strategy of translation. Based on historical and literary theoretical exemplification and analysis of selected translations, a general thesis on the theoretical layers of the issues discussed in the work will be offered. There will also be presented a proposal to define the terminology of specific strategy of interpreting – revitalisation.

The article examines the role of the self-sacrificing heroine in Juliusz Slowacki’s Lilla Weneda through the concept of “contractual masochism” proposed by Gilles Deleuze. The French philosopher suggests that a masochist voluntarily enters into a contract with an offender in the hope of realizing a fantastic ideal until it falls into eternal suspension. The suffering and demise of the angelic Wenedes, brought about by the aggressive Lechites and representing the poet’s vision of the post-Uprising Polish nation, will be reread in the light of this masochistic mechanism. Noticeably, the innocent heroine Lilla, who in the place of King Derwid initiates the contract with Queen Gwinona and sacrifices herself to death, plays a crucial role of “preparing” the rise of the national avenger who constructs the ideal Polish nation only in the future. An analysis of Rhapsody I from King-Spirit through the concept of sadism allows for a further understanding of Slowacki’s phantasm. While seeing sadism as a symptom separate from masochism, Deleuze regards a masochist’s transformation into a sadist as a contingent phenomenon. The epic of the mystically inclined Slowacki justifies such observation. King-Spirit that inherits the national ideal of Lilla Weneda mobilizes the sadistic principle of cruel disorder. Desiring a free Poland, the poet formed the vision of the heroic sadist who perpetually creates a new world.

Starting point of the considerations on Juliusz Slowacki’s portraits in biographical prose is a set of the poet’s fine arts images. This concept, known in Western literary studies as “Künstlerroman” or „portrait of the artist novel,” offers a framework for the presentation of Slowacki’s images in 1945–1981 biographical fiction. The first stage of narrations about Slowacki is made up by socialist realism books, namely “classicizing” picture by Pawel Hertz, and Mieczyslaw Jastrun’s Spotkanie z Salomea (A Meeting with Salomea), the latter being an example of the romantic poet’s image overuse. Next, Stefan Flukowski’s Plomien rozy (Flame of a Rose) is an attempt at a revision of Slowacki’s traditional picture. By contrast, Jan Dobraczynski’s novel Pacierz, co placze, i piorun, co blyska (Prayer that cries and lightning that flashes) exemplifies an ideological use of Slowacki’s picture according to the principles of national democracy.
