Adam Mickiewicz: Cosmopolitan Polish Romantic Bard

Polish Poetry Unites is a video series for anyone interested in literature, history and reading. In each episode Edward Hirsch, a distinguished American poet, and the president of the Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, will introduce a celebrated Polish poet to American audiences. This episode of Polish Poetry Unites introduces the work of Adam Mickiewicz to American audiences. Mickiewicz was born in 1797 in Zaosie [now Belarus] and died in 1855 in Constantinople [now Istanbul], Turkey, where he went to help organize Polish forces under the Ottoman Army to fight Russia in the Crimean War. Adam Mickiewicz was one of Three Bards, the national poets of Polish Romantic literature. The term is almost exclusively used to denote Adam Mickiewicz, Juliusz Słowacki and Zygmunt Krasiński. Of the three, Mickiewicz is considered the most influential. Following the exploration of Mickiewicz’s life and poetry by Edward Hirsch (more below) the video showcases the story of Tadeusz Jaskółowski, a “handyman” as he calls himself, who is presenting his favorite poem, To M. by Adam Mickiewicz. Edward Hirsch said: Adam Mickiewicz is the greatest 19th century romantic poet from Poland, or Polish poet. He’s a national hero. He believed strongly in Polish independence and liberty."
