Trybus

The book shows the heterogeneity of Polish Romanticism, which is often unfairly narrowed in its reception abroad to the issue of nationality. The authors focus on the history of Poland and Russia in the nineteenth century, but also address aesthetic problems concerning the ideas of truth and beauty, irony and mysticism, and the role of tradition.

Krzysztof Trybuś is Full Professor in the Institute of Polish Studies at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. His research interests focus on the literature of Polish Romanticism, mainly the works of Norwid and Mickiewicz, as well as issues related to literary tradition and cultural memory.
