The volume presents the research of Czesław Zgorzelski (1908-1996) on poetic art and aesthetics of lyricism in the Romantic period. However, the first two studies concern diversity of stylish phenomena in the Stanisław Enlightenment (Among the Stars of Stanisław Lyric Poetry) and works of the most significant poet of Pre-Romanticism (The Creative Way of Kazimierz Brodziński). The chapter The Romantic Breakthrough in the History of the Polish Lyric Poetry presents the most general factors of the romantic transformation in lyric poetry, and this change has been shown in a close relation with the state of lyric poetry in the years 1795-1820.
