Abstract
The author presents a recently discovered 1916 article from Utro Rosii, dedicated to Henryk Sienkiewicz, and written by Tadeusz Miciński (1873–1918), a representative of the Young Poland Movement, who stayed in Russia during WWI. As a regular contributor to Polish and Russian press, Miciński openly deplored Germans and favored the idea of united Slavs actively opposing German expansion. What was problematic for him was Russia’s attitude to Poland’s aspirations to independence. Referring to Sienkiewicz, Miciński wanted to minimize the risk of Polish-Russian confrontation after the war. He perceived the Polish-Ukrainian conflict of the 16th century, so aptly represented by Sienkiewicz in the Trylogy, as a sinister warning of what might happen in the future between Poland and Russia.
