WONDERFUL POEM IN THE ORIGINAL POLISH DONE BY THE MOST FAMOUS POLISH POET. Adam Bernard Mickiewicz (December 24, 1798 ¿ November 26, 1855) was a Polish (Polish-Lithuanian) poet, publisher and political writer of the Romantic period. One of the primary representatives of the Polish Romanticism era, a national poet of Poland, he is seen as one of Poland's Three Bards and the greatest poet in all of Polish literature. He is also considered one of the greatest Slavic language or European poets. He has been described as a Slavonic bard. He was a prominent creator of Romantic drama in Poland and has been compared both at home and in Western Europe to Byron and Goethe. He is known primarily as the author of the poetic novel Dziady and national epic Pan Tadeusz, which is considered the last great epic of Polish-Lithuanian noble culture. Mickiewicz's other influential works include Konrad Wallenrod and Gra¿yna. All served as inspiration during regional uprisings and as foundations for the concept of Poland as "the Christ of Nations." 1776 BOOKSTORE, WHERE HISTORY LIVES.
