Adam Mickiewicz’s Pan Tadeusz (in English: Sir Thaddeus, or the Last Lithuanian Foray ), the national epic poem, was first published in June 1834. It was perceived as a patriotic work, full of very ideal heroes. However, one of the most problem of this poem is love! Pan Tadeusz is the poem about love. There are many kinds of love: erotic love and maritial love, also familiar love (between parents and their children), love for country and others. My article applies not just to love affairs, but the very essence of love. What is love in Mickiewicz’s poem – is it “love that moves the sun and other stars” (Dante)?

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.

Adam Mickiewicz’s Pan Tadeusz (in English: Sir Thaddeus, or the Last Lithuanian Foray), the national epic poem, was first published in June 1834. It was perceived as a idyllic work, full of happiness and very ideal heroes. However, one of the most problem of this poem is treason! It is very important to put a question: what is treason in the strict sense of the word? There are a lot of kinds of treason or only one? Is it possible to betray own country on account of favouriting strange fashion, customs or painting? In Pan Tadeusz Mickiewicz intended to stand up for the Polish tradition. He had a high opinion of loyalty, steadiness and the selfless sense of duty.

Pan Tadeusz by Adam Mickiewicz, a great poet of Polish Romanticism, was first published in June 1834 in Paris. It is recognized as the national epic poem, one of the last in European literature. It depicts very precisely the life of the Polish gentry in the early 19th century. Pan Tadeusz was perceived as an idyllic poem, full of happiness and serenity. In my opinion, it is a misunderstanding. The poem by Adam Mickiewicz describes the world in blood. In this world we meet evil, chaos, violence and numerous conflicts. And the acts of bloodshed, of course. Blood is a very important symbol – bloodshed calls for revenge. Heroes are frequently eager for revenge. Blood is also the symbol of family relationship. As we can see, Pan Tadeusz is a rather bloody masterpiece!

Paul Valéry (1871-1945) was considered in the 1930s one of the greatest French poet and essayist. He was the author of the famous poems: La Jeune Parque (The Young Fate) and Le Cimetiere marin (The Graveyard by the Sea). Many times in different situations he spoke very highly of Poland and Poles. Wednesday, October 28th 1936, Valéry arrived in Warsaw. He delivered two lectures during his brief stay. They met with great interest, they were in the papers, they have been mentioned by Polish writers: Wacław Grubiński, Zofia Nałkowska, Tadeusz Breza. Also, Czesław Miłosz and Ludwik Hieronim Morstin have written about meetings with Paul Valéry. Poet`s visit, although very short, was a significant event in Polish cultural life.

„Pan Tadeusz”, czyli „antyksiążka”

The essay entitled “Pan Tadeusz” as an “antibook” was thought as a detailed consideration of books, reading and the relationship between “World” and “Library” (in a symbolic meaning). Mickiewicz’s Pan Tadeusz, the great epic poem describes the life of Polish gentry in the country. The protagonists of this masterpiece read cookery-books, newspapers, pamphlets, poems and others. It is very interesting that Tadeusz Soplica, a positive character, does not read a lot. The erudite persons are the foreigners (for example Buchman) or the adherents of foreign customs (for example Telimena and Hrabia). According to Mickiewicz, the real wisdom proceeds from “oral” tradition, not from “prints”.

Les Fleurs du mal (The Flowers of Evil ) as the infernal contract. Satanism in poems by Baudelaire

Baudelaire’s Catholicism seems difficult to interpret, therefore some authors declare the poet a Satanist. In my opinion, this is rather problematic to call Charles Baudelaire a Satanist. It is very debatable and doubtful, but there are several reasons for this. In the collection of poetry entitled “Les Fleurs du mal” (“The Flowers of Evil”), Baudelaire gave a voice to the Devil many times. He wrote a scandalous poem “Litanies de Satan” (“The Litany of Satan”). In fact, Satan tempts us and leads us, after all he is closer to man that God! Was Baudelaire a Satanist? It is question to be answered.

Ludwik Bohdan Grzeniewski – master of literary miniature

Ludwik Bohdan Grzeniewski (1930–2008) was Polish essayist, poet, critic and novelist. He was born and died in Warsaw, where he spent all his life. Well known as varsavianist, he was also master of literary miniature. It is not a literary genre in the strict sense. “Literary miniature”, coherent artistic statement, as short as possible, combines elements of poem, essay, short narrative and others. Grzeniewski always highly valued precision, he preferred condensed form of expression. I therefore think, that the books of this writer (Igły w stogu siana, “Drobiazgów duch, wspaniały i powietrzny…”, Taniec z mufką and others) deserve attention.

Adam Mickiewicz’s Pan Tadeusz (in English: Sir Thaddeus, or the Last Lithuanian Foray), the national epic poem, was first published in June 1834. It was perceived as a very important book, the last great epic poem in European literature. Pan Tadeusz is undoubtedly a great literary masterpiece. In my opinion, the poem is not a book just like any other book.What could it mean? We might suppose it is a special kind of book − in fact, the Book. Traditionally, this term is associated with sacred books such as Bible, Koran or Talmud. Contemporary secular version (mentioned by Oswald Spengler, Stéphane Mallarmé, Jorge Luis Borges) shows the Book as the world, the whole or the infinity. Therefore, it is worth asking why Mickiewicz lapsed into silence. Is it possible that he wrote the Book and did not want to write books any more?
