Abstract

This article examines Zygmunt Krasiński’s travels through the Alps between 1829 and 1830, as described in his letters, prose fragments, and French-language diary. The authors focus on how Krasiński depicted the places he visited, viewed through the lens of Romantic aesthetics, emotional sensibility, and – above all – his literary influences. The article also highlights the evolution of his writing from epigonic imitation to creative independence.
