Titles of major works of both writers point to the effort of revealing the most difficult and most secret knowledge of evil. Hannah Arendt, trying to dig out the roots (or rather the beginnings) of totalitarianism, follows the Joseph Conrad as an explorer of kernel (more precisely: heart) of darkness. And when later, Arendt embarks on a journey to Jerusalem to participate in the Eichmann trial, like Conrad ’s Marlow, she is fascinated by tales of a strong man, because she expects to see someone undoubtedly bad, but also great. Meanwhile, reveals “banality of evil” and this category is worth to refer to the case of Kurtz in Conrad ’s story. The attacks of critics on "Eichmann in Jerusalem", and "Heart of Darkness", based on allegations of humiliation of victims and suggesting their participation in the crime, also contain interesting parallels.

The multi-dimensional cooperation between Count Władysław Zamoyski and St. Albert Chmielowski is an important fragment of Zakopane’s tradition. Their activity marked the period of the development of the town, which was on its way to becoming not only a famous spa, but also a centre of the Polish spiritual and political life. Owing to Zamoyski’s assistance, St. Albert erected a hermitage at the foot of the Tatra Mountains, which hosted some eminent artists from the Young Poland period. In line with the vision of Zakopane consistently implemented by Zamoyski, the sanctuary of prayer and contemplation was an indispensable element. There are testimonies according to which Count Zamoyski felt a monastic vocation and discussed the issue with the founder of the Albertine Brothers. St. Albert’s refusal to allow him to go resulted from his belief that Zamoyski’s economic activity was particularly beneficial from the social point of view, promoting not only civilizational but also spiritual progress. The cooperation of the two outstanding figures is without any doubt one of the most significant threads of Polish culture at the turn of the 20th century.
