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 ".
