Unusual Case of a “Destroyed” Manuscript. On So-Called Warsaw Manuscript of Juliusz Słowacki’s “Answer to »Psalms of the Future«”

Author(s): Zbigniew Przychodniak, Jacek Brzozowski
Subject(s): Literary Texts
Published by: Instytut Badań Literackich Polskiej Akademii Nauk
Keywords: WARSAW MANUSCRIPT OF JULIUSZ SŁOWACKI’S “ANSWER TO »PSALMS OF THE FUTURE«”

Summary/Abstract: The text tells about an exceptional case of Juliusz Słowacki’s manuscript, i.e. the second manuscript of the poem Answer to “Psalms of the Future” which survived in the collection of National Library in Warsaw, though in Słowacki’s writings and bibliographies issued after World War II the text is qualified as destroyed in 1944. Correcting this information is an occasion to follow the poem’s first and second manuscript editorial trials and tribulations in collected editions to date.
