Summary/Abstract: The article discusses civilisational aspects of western European, Polish and Russian winters in personal accounts (diaries, letters, and memoirs) of Polish Romantic authors. It illustrates how climatic differences influence the perception of cultural differences. The problems explored in the article form a new context for the interpretation of Adam Mickiewicz’s great works: City Winter (Zima miejska) and Passage of Forefathers Eve. Part III (Dziadów części III Ustęp).
