The article presents Stanisław Brzozowski as a philosopher who, at the beginning of the 20th century, initiated a new reception of romantic thought and poetry which is called nowadays a “revision of romanticism”, i.e. a critical reexamination of main High Romantic ideas under the auspices of the School of Suspicion. Brzozowski, very well versed in readings of Nietzsche, Marx and Freud, applied the techiques of suspicion in his interpretation of Polish and British romantic writings, and achieved a highly original conclusion: in the “suspicious” vein, he rejected the grand romantic claim for absolute subjective autonomy, at the same time, however, maintained the value of the struggle for autonomy itself as a indispensable resistance to reifying tendency of modernist philosophies. He thus proposed a romantic- -modernist theoretical hybrid, insisting on the neccessity of an individual agon in the world of objectifying influences, perceived either as economic conditionings (Marx) or instinctual forces of nature (Nietzsche, Freud). By diminishing the romantic “high expectations”, Brzozowski attempted to save the most precious core of the romantic thought – the individual striving for subjective autonomy – and in this manner to secure its place within more sceptical, less idealistic conditions of late modernity.
