Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adam Mickiewicz (1798-1855), Poland's national poet, was one of the extraordinary personalities of the age. In chronicling the events of his life--his travels, numerous loves, a troubled marriage, years spent as a member of a heterodox religious sect, and friendships with such luminaries of the time as Aleksandr Pushkin, James Fenimore Cooper, George Sand, Giuseppe Mazzini, Margaret Fuller, and Aleksandr Herzen--Roman Koropeckyj draws a portrait of the Polish poet as a quintessential European Romantic. Spanning five decades of one of the most turbulent periods in modern European history, Mickiewicz's life and works at once reflected and articulated the cultural and political upheavals marking post-Napoleonic Europe. After a poetic debut in his native Lithuania that transformed the face of Polish literature, he spent five years of exile in Russia for engaging in Polish "patriotic" activity. Subsequently, his grand tour of Europe was interrupted by his country's 1830 uprising against Russia; his failure to take part in it would haunt him for the rest of his life. For the next twenty years Mickiewicz shared the fate of other Polish émigrés in the West. It was here that he wrote Forefathers' Eve, part 3 (1832) and Pan Tadeusz (1834), arguably the two most influential works of modern Polish literature. His reputation as his country's most prominent poet secured him a position teaching Latin literature at the Academy of Lausanne and then the first chair of Slavic Literature at the Collége de France. In 1848 he organized a Polish legion in Italy and upon his return to Paris founded a radical French-language newspaper. His final days were devoted to forming a Polish legion in Istanbul. This richly illustrated biography--the first scholarly biography of the poet to be published in English since 1911--draws extensively on diaries, memoirs, correspondence, and the poet's literary texts to make sense of a life as sublime as it was tragic. It concludes with a description of the solemn transfer of Mickiewicz's remains in 1890 from Paris to Cracow, where he was interred in the Royal Cathedral alongside Poland's kings and military heroes.

Book excerpt: The Crimean Sonnets are a series of Polish sonnets by Adam Mickiewicz, constituting an artistic telling of a journey through the Crimea published in 1826. The Crimean Sonnets are romantic descriptions of oriental nature and culture of the East which show the despair of the poet—a pilgrim, an exile longing for the homeland, driven from his home by a violent enemy. The Crimean Sonnets is considered the first sonnet cycle in Polish literature and a significant example of early romanticism in Poland, which gave rise to the huge popularity of this genre in Poland and inspired many Polish poets of the Romantic era as well as the Young Poland period.

Pan Tadeusz is a classic tale of mystery, war and patriotism set in the turbulent Napoleonic era. First published in 1834 in Paris, it has been called “the last epos” in world literature. The old Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth lies dismembered, erased from the political map of Europe by the great powers of Russia, Prussia, and Austria. A brief ray of hope rekindles national hopes in 1807 when Napoleon establishes the Duchy of Warsaw by the terms of the Treaty of Tilsit and prepares to invade Russia. The oft-overshadowed counterpoint to War and Peace and the 1812 Overture. Sponsored by the Polish Book Institute's book in translation program

Book excerpt: From a groundbreaking Slovenian-Austrian poet comes an evocative, captivating collection on searching for home in a landscape burdened with violent history. At its core, Distant Transit is an ode to survival, building a monument to traditions and lives lost. Infused with movement, Maja Haderlap’s Distant Transit traverses Slovenia’s scenic landscape and violent history, searching for a sense of place within its ever-shifting boundaries. Avoiding traditional forms and pronounced rhythms, Haderlap unleashes a flow of evocative, captivating passages whose power lies in their associative richness and precision of expression, vividly conjuring Slovenia’s natural world––its rolling meadows, snow-capped alps, and sparkling Adriatic coast. Belonging to the Slovene ethnic minority and its inherited, transgenerational trauma, Haderlap explores the burden of history and the prolonged aftershock of conflict––warm, lavish pastoral passages conceal dark memories, and musings on the way language can create and dissolve borders reveal a deep longing for a sense of home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 67 texts, including hymns, manifestos, articles or extracts from lengthy studies exemplify the relation between Romanticism and the national movements in the cultural space ranging from Poland to the Ottoman Empire. Each text is accompanied by a presentation of the author, and by an analysis of the context in which the respective work was born.The end of the 18th century and first decades of the 19th were in many respects a watershed period in European history. The ideas of the Enlightenment and the dramatic convulsions of the French Revolution had shattered the old bonds and cast doubt upon the established moral and social norms of the old corporate society. In culture a new trend, Romanticism, was successfully asserting itself against Classicism and provided a new key for a growing number of activists to 're-imagine' their national community, reaching beyond the traditional frameworks of identification (such as the 'political nation', regional patriotism, or Christian universalism). The collection focuses on the interplay of Romantic cultural discourses and the shaping of national ideology throughout the 19th century, tracing the patterns of cultural transfer with Western Europe as well as the mimetic competition of national ideologies within the region.

This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pan Tadeusz, the last inn in Lithuania. History of the gentry from 1811 and 1812 in twelve books in verse "edited by Stanisław Pigoń, with an appendix by Julian Maślanka. A poetic vision of Lithuania in 1811 and 1812, written by Adam Mickiewicz two decades later, in exile in Paris. "Opus magnum" by the poet and his last big work. For successive generations of Poles, considered a national epic, "Pan Tadeusz" (1834) continues to delight. It dazzles not only with the creation of a world composed of rituals, customs, rituals and conventions of noble culture, but also with the language of poetry and artistry of form. There is no unnecessary phrase in this poem, a meaningless hero, an irrelevant scene, an unspeakable gesture. Everything creates an ideal world, vividly influencing the reader's senses with its color, taste and sound. "The secret of the peculiar beauty of" Pan Tadeusz "lies in its extraordinary ordinaryness. Colloquial affairs, everyday experiences, accidents and simple objects were shown there in a seemingly ordinary way, and in a new, special, captivating freshness of word: the only, most accurate ". From Stanisław Pigoń's" Introduction "Adam Mickiewicz (1798-1855) - a poet, playwright, translator, columnist, political activist. Recognized as one of the three National Prophets - next to Słowacki and Krasiński. Author of such masterpieces of Polish literature as: "Ode to Youth" (1820), "Ballady i romanse" (1822), "Grażyna" (1823), "Dziady" part II and IV (1823) and "Dziady" part. III (1832). He was born in Nowogródek, Lithuania. He studied at the University of Vilnius, where he co-founded secret patriotic and self-education societies, for which he was arrested and sentenced to Russia deeply. Here were created, among others his famous "Crimean Sonnets" (1826) and "Konrad Wallenrod" (1828). In 1829, he managed to leave the Russian Empire and after a period of travel, he settled in Paris. He married Celina Szymanowska, with whom he had six children. In 1840, he took over the newly established chair of Slavic literature at the College de France, and soon after he joined the Andrzej Towiański Circle of God's Cause. During the Spring of Nations, he created a Polish legion in Italy. A few years later, during the Crimean War, he set out on a mission to form Polish legions to Constantinople, where he died suddenly on November 26, 1855. He was buried at the Les Champeaux Cemetery in Montmorency near Paris. In 1900, his ashes were officially transferred to Wawel. Stanisław Pigoń (1885-1968) - historian of Polish literature, outstanding researcher of Romanticism and Modernism, in particular of the works of Mickiewicz, Fredro, Norwid, Żeromski and Orkan.

In 1939-1940 imprisoned with a group of professors of the Jagiellonian University in the Sachsenhausen concentration camp.
