Adam Mickiewicz's
Readings - a journal for scholars and readers Volume 1 (2015), Issue 2 Adam Mickiewicz’s “Crimean Sonnets” – a clash of two cultures and a poetic journey into the Romantic self Olga Lenczewska, University of Oxford The paper analyses Adam Mickiewicz’s poetic cycle ‘Crimean Sonnets’ (1826) as one of the most prominent examples of early Romanticism in Poland, setting it across the background of Poland’s troubled history and Mickiewicz’s exile to Russia. I argue that the context in which Mickiewicz created the cycle as well as the final product itself influenced the way in which Polish Romanticism developed and matured. The sonnets show an internal evolution of the subject who learns of his Romantic nature and his artistic vocation through an exploration of a foreign land, therefore accompanying his physical journey with a spiritual one that gradually becomes the main theme of the ‘Crimean Sonnets’. In the first part of the paper I present the philosophy of the European Romanticism, situate it in the Polish historical context, and describe the formal structure of the Crimean cycle. In the second part of the paper I analyse five selected sonnets from the cycle in order to demonstrate the poetic journey of the subject-artist, centred around the epistemological difference between the Classical concept of ‘knowing’ and the Romantic act of ‘exploring’. Introduction The purpose of this essay is to present Adam Mickiewicz's “Crimean Sonnets” cycle – a piece very representative of early Polish Romanticism – in the light of the social and historical events that were crucial for the rise of Romantic literature in Poland, with Mickiewicz as a prize example. -

Transformation of Stereotypical Perception of „The Image of Poles” in the Russian Empire Society During the World War I
The Person and the Challenges Volume 7 (2017) Number 2, p. 151–164 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15633/pch.2188 Olga Bilobrovets Zhytomyr Ivan Franko State University, Ukraine Transformation of stereotypical perception of „the image of Poles” in the Russian Empire society during the World War I Abstract The cohabitation of different nations in the border of one state creates certain ethnic, social, mental collective nation’s image which changes very slowly. These processes are enhanced during the global historical processes with significant devastating effects which lead to an alteration in public consciousness. During World War І, under the influence of the external crisis circumstances, the necessity to take into account the strategic interests and fundamental values of the nations involved in the war, led to a change in perception of the image of the Pole. The image of a Pole as a disloyal person to Russian statehood had changed into the image of a true confederate in the mutual striving with the enemy. Perception of the Poles as partners in state‑building and international cohabitation became possible only due to global geopolitical changes, the policy of powerful nations, including the Polish territory and the ability of Polish political powers to consolidate their efforts around the idea of statehood restoration. Keywords Russian Empire, the image of the Pole, loyalty, World War І. The Person and the Challenges 152 Volume 7 (2017) Number 2, p. 151–164 1. Introduction The cohabitation of different nations in the border of one state always has its own features caused, among other things, by their status, historical circumstances and conditions of development. -

Why Did Cyprian Norwid Tear the Memorial Drawing from Egypt He Had Received from Juliusz Słowacki? on the Private Nature of Czarne Kwiaty (Black Flowers)
Colloquia Litteraria UKSW 4/2017 Ewa Szczeglacka-Pawłowska WHY DID CYPRian NORwiD teaR the memoRial DRawing FRom EGYpt he haD ReceiveD FRom Juliusz Słowacki? ON the PRivate NatuRE OF CZARNE KWiaTy (BLacK FLOWERS) Private life became an important part of art in the Romantic period. This is a general statement which includes various issues and problems of an aesthetic nature referring to the period of Romanticism and to the culture of the reception of works of art and readers’ expectations which existed at that time. The lives of artists, including their private lives, became more and more public in the sense of being subjected to the expectations and judgements of the public. Private and intimate lives had a powerful influence on the shaping of literary conventions and on the ways of development of lyric poetry. The unofficial sphere was quite important in Norwid’s aesthetics. It was dealt with, among others, in Czarne kwiaty (Black Flowers). It seems that Norwid pushed further the border of what was private and intimate in art, further than it had been established in the first half of the nineteenth century. I would like to start my explanations with a detail. Adam Mickiewicz, in his notebook for Dziady część III (Forefathers’ Eve Part III) in the stage directions for the prison scene wrote: A corridor—guardsmen with carbines stand nearby—a few young prisoners, [in dressing gowns—G.M.] with candles, leave their cells—midnight.1 1 Adam Mickiewicz, Forefathers’ Eve, transl. by Charles Kraszewski, Glagoslav Publications, London, 2016, 181. 289 COLLOQUIA LITTERARIA In the text which was published we find, however, the following words: A corridor—guardsmen with carbines stand nearby—a few young prisoners, with candles, leave their cells—midnight. -

For the first time ever human beings had a technology that allowed the written word to keep pace with speech and accurately record it. In the words of one of stenography’s Russian pioneers, “how many works of genius, eloquent sermons, happy improvisations, clever and lively discussions have remained unknown, lost to posterity, due to the incapacity of ordinary writing to transfer them to paper.”1 No wonder enthusiasts could promote stenography as a sign of human genius and progress. -

INTRODUCTION In recent years ethnic issues and their embodiment in literature have commanded an inordinate amount of interest in both scholarly and public discourse. Although sociologists, historians and literary critics have written about literature and ethnicity for a long time, the boundaries between disciplines have often been blurred and, as Werner Sollors notices in his landmark study Beyond Ethnicity , “have sometimes had detrimental effects on some previous efforts of this sort.” 1 He clarifies his line of thought further: ethnicity specialists sometimes tend to misread literature or misinterpret it as a direct social and historical evidence, whereas literary critics in many cases have stayed away from newer sociological and anthropological approaches to ethnicity. 2 In the light of the above, there exist some problems with the way in which literature is viewed by the theoretical analysts of ethnicity, who have resorted to literary works so as to demonstrate their theses.
