Stanisław Wyspiański (1869–1907) was the Polish dramatist, the poet, besides the illustrator and the painter, one of the best known artist of the Young Poland movement. His journey to Europe (particulary to Paris) became very important experience in his life. He discovered the value of loneliness, he had to be alone – as an artist and as a man. He was called “a hermit from Cracow” and for this reason his genius was not always appreciated. However, at the end of life, Wyspiański undergoes a significant transformation: he feels a strong connection to community, as a member of the nation and society, as well as a host.

The present discussion sheds light on the works and worldview related to Polish Enlightenment of Konstanty Maria Górski (1862−1909), a writer, poet, historian and expert on Enlightenment in Polish literature. Although Górski was an individualist in the Young Poland movement, as a scientist and writer he was a representative of his time. The article shows the ways in which the microdimensions of Enlightenment in Górski’s scientific biography may be understood. His line of thought reveals the aspects, borders and definitions of Polish Enlightenment by means of scientific interpretations of biographies of the writers of the period as well as by specifying the cultural, esthetical and ideological movement known as Enlightenment. The field of Górski’s scientific exploration focuses on the 90s of the 18th century and helps to understand why the theme and fascination with Polish Enlightenment, especially with the 90s of the 18th century which was such a difficult time for Polish culture and national identity as it was connected with national partitions and hope for resurrection and liberation, becomes a cornerstone of Górski’s scientific development as a researcher trying to resolve specific problems in Polish literature at that very time. The author discusses the manner in which many different problems connected with Polish Enlightenment are presented in Górski’s biography and works. The purpose of the article is to present the specific mechanism which could be compared to allegoresis, used by Górski in his short story Bibliomaniac (Polish title: Biblioman)
