Tadeusz Miciński i Pierwszy Zjazd Wojskowych Polskich w Piotrogrodzie w 1917 roku. Zapomniane artykuły i poematy

Abstract

The time of the First World War and the stay in Russia is one of the least known and commented periods of Tadeusz Miciński’s work. In this article, the author deals with a small but important part of Miciński’s work from the wartime, that is, the articles and poems that were created within several days during The First Assembly of the Polish Military in Petrograd (7-22 June 1917 r.). The author gives an introduction to reading Miciński’s texts presented in the annex, written during this Assembly or created in connection to it. The articles (Zjazd Wojskowych Polaków [The Assembly of the Polish Military], Braterstwo polskiego frontu [Brotherhood of the Polish Front], Napoleońską drogą do zwycięstwa [Taking the Napoleonic Way to Victory]) and poems (Ojczyzna, Wawelu dzwon… w Piotrogrodzie!.. [Homeland, The Bell from Wawel ... in Petrograd! ..]) published in “Dziennik Polski” and related to the I Assembly of the Polish Military, fit in with the general character of his work from the wartime, even with the tone of agitation, but they are also, as argued by the author of the article, a more interesting artistic achievement than other texts from the First World War.
