The article deals with Mickiewicz's references and allusions to Ancient Egypt. They occur only incidentally and play no more than a marginal role in his work, yet they seem to have been a hard nut to crack for several editors. Their glosses are usually imprecise, and sometimes even downright inaccurate or misleading. The author identifies and discusses three main sources of Mickiewicz's references to the Egypt of the Pharaoh. They are his notes from Joachim Lelewel's lectures on Ancient Egypt, his memories of Egyptian art in the poem 'On the Grecian Room in the Moscow Home of Countess Zeneida Volkonskaya', and several minor 'Egyptological' notes in his historical works (The First Centuries of Polish History, and his translation of Emerson's History).

The article outlines three models of the development of Romantic Slavophile ideas. The first focuses on the beginnings of this intellectual trend and the pioneering contribution of Herder and Chodakowski. The initial impulse was then carried on by the literary group 'Ziewonia', which flourished in Galicia after 1830. In an attempt to revive links with representatives of neighbouring Slavic nations, the Ziewonians worked out their own Central European version of the Slavic idea. The second model is built round Adam Mickiewicz's College de France lectures with his polonocentric idea of the Slav messianic destiny. The third model draws on the politico-religious writings of Andrzej Towianski and his controversial project of a union of Poland and Russia. Even though the latter may look like a fatuous pipe-dream, it was an ambitious attempt to open up new perspectives for the contemporary Slavic world.
