Summary/Abstract: The sketch, written from a very personal perspective, is evoted to the way, in which Prof. Marian Maciejewski used lyrical poetry of the Polish Enlightenment to present sources and inspirations of Polish Romantic poetry (first of all that by A. Mickiewicz), and also it indicates what was interesting for this scholar in the 18th century poetry, how he described the characteristics of the poetry written in Stanisław August's times, where he perceived its pioneering role for the achievements of 19th century poetry, and in what way he developed the earlier studies by Czesław Zgorzelski devoted to the literature of that time.
