The book contains essays on the heterogeneity of Polish Romantic
literature and its links with Europe's cultural heritage. The
essays deal with, among other topics, the idea of beauty and truth,
correspondences between the arts, the role of tradition and memory
in the Romantic era, and the significance of mysticism and irony.
The authors of the essays write about such seemingly distant issues
as music and revolution in Chopin's times, and travel to places as
disparate as Siberia and Italy. Their thematically diverse
reflections are linked by questions they pose about the romantic
roots of today's Europe. The works of Mickiewicz and other Romantic
poets discussed in this book thus clearly do not concern merely the
past, but also speak to the present day, describing the experiences
of everyday life in its various dimensions.
