Adam Mickiewicz
1798-1855
Biographies
|
Writings |
|
Adam Mickiewicz was
acknowledged as Poland's greatest
poet. Whatever his chosen form - ballad, poetic tale, romantic drama, or
epic - the result was artistically brilliant and profound in meaning. The
leader of Polish Romanticism, he created such masterpieces as The Forefathers'
Eve, Grazyna, Konrad Wallenrod, and the great Pan Tadeusz. Succeeding generations
of Polish poets were to feel the force of his genius. He was in exile in Russia
between 1824 and 1829 for his political activities. He spent the rest of his
life in Western Europe.
