The article undertakes the issue of the authorship of the poem Do Kajetana Węgierskiego, which is one of the evidence of a so-called “war about Węgierski” that took place on our native writing field in the second half of the 70s of the 18th century because of pamphlets written by this poet which ridiculed the members of the elite of that time. The problems with text attribution from that period is nothing unusual; yet, in this case it is surprising that the poem was assigned to Stanisław Trembecki or Józef Wybicki, that is, the authors whose position in the literary hierarchy of the Enlightenment poetry is completely opposite, and – what is more important – their poetic styles and ways of perceiving the world were rarely alike. Why did it happen? What could be in favour (and what was in favour in the researcher’s opinions) for any of these writers? Finally, which hypothesis matches the real life? These are the questions that this article attempts to answer.
