Ignacy Krasicki was born in Dubiecko upon San, in Przemyśl Region. All his life, he was deeply engaged in what was going on in the region, which is evident in his letters sent to and from Lidzbark Warminski and Dubiecko. There are literary pieces written in the form of menippean letters entitled Podróż z Warszawy do Biłgoraja [Journey from Warsaw to Biłgoraj] and Powrót do Warszawy [Return to Warsaw] that refer to his journey to the homeland in 1782. In those letters Krasicki described over thirty towns, small towns and settlements. Literary descriptions of the journey present the Polish realities with the account of multiple aspects, the assessment is drawn up from the point of view of an involved subject; the descriptions abound with autobiographical references, valuations of historical places, metaliterary references and personal, sentimental feelings. Cognitive and emotional journey to the country renders interesting valuations and also represents an extensive field for reflection over history, culture and customs.
