- Summary:
- Wincenty Ignacy Marewicz, whose literary activity peaked during the Four-Year Sejm, counts among the “destitute writers” of the king Stanisław August Poniatowski times. Although he was sometimes labeled as a “graphomaniac”, such a summary assessment has been increasingly regarded as unwarranted or at least questionable. A careful interpreter of opinions on Marewicz's literary achievements, Anna Petlak presents the reader with the poet’s early works, originally collected in three volumes, Samotne zabawki wierszem (A lonely play with verse), Sielanki (Bucolics) and Różne wiersze (Miscellaneous poems), published in the years 1786–1788. The author of the study has compiled a critical edition of Marewicz's poems, which starts with an analytical and interpretative introduction including the poet's biography.“The publication of the poems – created in various aesthetics and taking on a wide range of themes – 230 years after their first edition aims to protect them from oblivion. Reading these poems can provide a lot of satisfaction to all interested in the culture of the Polish Enlightenment; moreover, it paves the way for further research on the poet's work.”
