%X This volume brings together several studies on the writings of Stanisław Przybyszewski (1868-1927), one of the most important writers of Young Poland. The book also includes a supplement on the poetry of Zofia Wojnarowska. All the co-authors of the volume have explored Przybyszewski's work from different perspectives, placing it in many cultural contexts. Among the themes explored are the novel Children of Satan, the drama The Guests, Karol Irzykowski's statements about Przybyszewski, the opposition between bohemianism and dandyism (exemplified by Przybyszewski and Roman Jaworski), and Przybyszewski's views on Poznań culture. Przybyszewski was a writer appreciated in Germany and Scandinavia. He quickly became a leader of the Polish artistic avant-garde. In his works he dealt with the most important problems of modern culture at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The studies collected in this monograph show various aspects of his writing, which combined Polish and European perspectives.
