About this copy

Binding: Period half-leather, with the title “Czerwonawieś” embossed on the front cover.

In 1818, Kazimierz Brodziński published his essay “On Classicism and Romanticism, and on the Spirit of Polish Poetry.” Calmly and without harsh judgments, he pointed Polish Romanticism toward its own path: folk traditions, simplicity, and the beauty of the native landscape. He became a bridge between Classicism and Mickiewicz’s generation. Volumes V and VI are part of the first posthumous collected edition of his works, “supplemented with writings not previously published,” published by Teofil Glücksberg in Vilnius. Volume V (1842) contains this essay and other critical texts (on criticism, satire, and elegy). Volume VI (1843) includes essays on Krasicki, Copernicus, Voronich, Milton, Linnaeus, and Shakespeare.

The front cover features an embossed “Czerwonawieś” ex-libris, the emblem of the manor library in Czerwona Wieś in Greater Poland, associated with the Chłapowski family.

A period half-leather binding.

An item from the 18th Polish Antiquarian Book Auction.
