Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz o Henryku Sienkiewiczu (w „La Pologne Littéraire”)
Journal Title: Wiek XIX. Rocznik Towarzystwa Literackiego im. Adama Mickiewicza - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
In “Notre Sienkiewicz”, an article published in 1927 by Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz in “La Pologne Littéraire”, he indicates the differing reception of the works of Sienkiewicz in Poland and abroad. He describes “The Trilogy” as “the Polish historic gospel”, at the same time stressing Sienkiewicz’s role in building the national myth and liberation tradition, as well as shaping the national spirit. It also analyses the problem of the relationship between the fate of the individual and the collective, and historical processes Sienkiewicz underwent. Iwaszkiewicz sees the singularity of Sienkiewicz’s writing in his constant updating of the issues tackled by his works. Iwaszkiewicz supports his view with the opinions of literary critics and the journalists (J. Kleiner, J.N. Miller, W. Horzyca et al.) published in “Wiadomości Literackie” weekly.
