Summary/Abstract: Polish Romanticism did not end in the 19th century. Maria Janion writes thatRomanticism is an epoch that continues (in the culture and identity of Poles) in the20th century. Currently, we can talk about post-Romanticism. We live in postmodernity,but we return to the past. We use the romantic myths. My research indicatesthat young people like to read literature from the 19th century. Young people want toread books about unhappy love, the fight for Poland’s freedom, tradition. They do notwant to recognize post-industrial or liberal values. School still educates students whoread the world through the Romantic code.
