In the article published in 'Droga' magazine in 1928, Stanislaw Brzozowski argued that Przybyszewski's book 'Zur Psychologie des Individuums' is the key to understanding his aesthetics and literary works. In his novels and plays, Przybyszewski showed the world in which 'we don't believe in truth anymore' and 'nothing is certain, everything is possible'. Besides, Przybyszewski himself was an oversensitive individual, as described in 'Zur Psychologie des Individuums'. Brzozowski emphasized that both criticism and admiration Przybyszewski met in Poland resulted from misunderstanding or incompetence. The article 'O Stanislawie Przybyszewskim' was intended as a short book. It was written probably in 1902 or at the beginning of 1903.

Stanislaw Brzozowski considered Stanislaw Przybyszewski to be an important philosopher who was aware of the crisis European culture reached at the turn of the 19th and 20th century. Brzozowski wanted to create a new cultural consciousness, to see humanity as the active power and not the victim of biological or historical circumstances. In 1902, he begun to develop his own philosophy, taking Przybyszewski (and also Nietzsche and Avenarius) as a starting point. However, Brzozowski eventually realised that there is a fundamental philosophical disagreement between his project and Przybyszewski's views. The article confronts Przybyszewski's philosophy with its changing interpretation in Brzozowski.

The author characterizes the functions of fear (anxiety) in Young Poland's vividness and perception of the world. Omnipresent and various forms of anxiety strengthened the characteristic of the epoch pessimism, and also proved to be, as in the case of Tadeusz Micinski's poetry, an existential challenge. The richest repertoire of anxiety neuroses is observed in Stanislaw Przybyszewski's writings, in which one can distinguish between three types of an alarmed man. The first is a searcher of liberation from the hell of fears (in prose poems), the second - an ambivalent slave to anxiety and a discoverer (due to his experience of fear) of the real being (in the novels on an artist) and the third, a perverse creator of a total terror which stimulates the protagonist's imagination and also destroys him (in Satanist novels).

The article shows the ethical aspects of three major Polish literary autobiographies, representing different generations of writers. They are: 'Autobiography in the letters' of Eliza Orzeszkowa, 'My contemporaries' of Stanislaw Przybyszewski and 'Polish memories; of Witold Gombrowicz. All authors create the image of the writer as the conscience of culture, therefore, emphasize their own sense of duty, responsibility, and patriotism. It reveals the persistence shaped in the nineteenth-century story about a Polish writer who must subordinate his work and his imagination to ethics of obligation. We can find this pattern not only in case of Orzeszkowa (the supporter of the philosophy of positivism) but also in case of Przybyszewski (modernist provocateur) and Gombrowicz who wants to change and revalue the 'form' of Polish culture after the Second World War. With this pattern, all authors fight with their competitors in the field of literature, which obliges us to ask again for their ethical choices. For a symbolic rejection of forms in Polish literary autobiography, a novel by Andrzej Stasiuk 'How Did I Become a Writer', written shortly after the 1989, can be considered.

The article takes a closer look at the artistic life in Krakow at the turn of the 19th and 20th century. Activities of the artists, led by Stanislaw Przybyszewski, and all in the social-café-salon life make it possible to distinguish a completely new kind of bohemianism: exquisite, noble and even aristocratic. Krakow Bohemians comprised of the very elite of the cultural life: renowned artists – mainly professors of the Academy of Fine Arts – prominent actors, talented writers and poets, influential critics. A time of the triumph of the bohemian circle coincided with the era of major exhibitions, shown not only in Krakow, but also in Vienna. Though initially shocking the Galician bourgeois mentality, with time bohemians became more and more influential, promoting a new style and created, at the end Polish modernism.
