Summary/Abstract: The Russian Revolution of 1905 disturbed not only the Russian literature, but also the YoungPoland. In the workers’ battles Polish people saw a chance to recover their own independence.Therefore, the images of revolution created by Russian and Polish writers differed significantly fromeach other. This article analyzes Niemojewski’s and Artsybashev’s revolutionary prose. Niemojewski glorifies revolutionaries. His heroes lay down their lives for freedom. Artsybashev discredits therevolution and argues that it does not make sense, because those who fight for freedom die and willnot experience it.
