The article describes two models of representing proletariat in the Polish poetry of the second half of the 19th century. The first model relates to the image of misery, poverty and weakness and focuses on the frail beings (children, orphans, paupers) faced with the state apparatus or lack of any help from the environment. Various forms of allegories appear in this model very frequently. The second model can be seen in the so called revolutionary poetry. Here, the image of poverty and weakness starts to fulfill a completely different role − the misery of the proletariat is perceived not through the eyes of an outside observer, but by the proletariat itself, although only to see the strength of the weak coming from their number. The same reality is thus depicted in an absolutely different manner − in the first case the image confirms the misery and weakness of the proletariat which can only be changed by an outside philanthropist; in the second case the image induces the sense of empowerment in the proletariat, which − although weak, exploited and humiliated – possesses an inner power to recover from its position.
