The history of Polish tourism in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains as well as the literary and artistic reception of the landscape and culture of Saxon Switzerland have never been discussed in detail. The present article is a research reconnaissance. The beginnings and development of tourism in the region came in the late 18th and early 19th century. The 1800s were marked by the emergence of the first German-language descriptions of Saxon Switzerland, which served as guidebooks at the time. From the very beginning Poles, too, participated in the tourist movement in the area. The author of the article seeks to follow the increasing interest in Saxon Switzerland and the appearance of the first descriptions of the region in Polish literature and culture. She provides a detailed analysis of Polish-language accounts of micro-trips to the Elbe Sandstone Mountains by Andrzej Edward Koźmian, Stanisław Deszert, Antoni Edward Odyniec, Klementyna Hoffman née Tańska and a poem by Maciej Bogusz Stęczyński. As the analysis demonstrates, in the first half of the 19th century Poles liked to visit these relatively low mountains in Central Europe and tourism in the region is clearly part of the history of Polish mountain tourism. Thanks to unique aesthetic and natural values of the mountains, full of varied rocky formations, reception of their landscape had an impact of the development of the aesthetic sensibility of Polish Romantics. Direct contact with nature and the landscape of Saxon Switzerland also served an important role in the shaping of spatial imagination of Polish tourists, encouraging them to explore other mountains in Europe and the world, including the Alps. On the other hand thanks to the development of tourist infrastructure in Saxon Switzerland, facilitating trips in the region and making the most attractive spots available to inexperienced tourists, micro-trips to the Elbe Sandstone Mountains marked an important stage in the development of mountain tourism on a popular-recreational level. Polish-language accounts of trips to Saxon Switzerland from the first half of the 20th century are a noteworthy manifestation of the beginnings of Polish travel literature.

In my article I try to read Malczewski’s Maria (1825) — the first and fully mature romantic tale representing the Polish romantic “Ukrainian school” — in a new way. Taking into account the biography of the author and some of its strict connections with genesis of the work, pessimistic conception of heroes’ fate, and also specific way of creating and picturing space, I have taken as a fundamental context of my interpretation the theory of “burnout syndrome” borrowed from contemporary psychology. The analysis and interpretation of some parts of Maria in my essay have given me some basis to treat this work of Polish early Romanticism as the first Polish-language literary work giving a poetical explanation and picture exemplification of burnout psyche. I also tried to demonstrate that in the case of reading Maria in view of the theory of “burnout syndrome,” apart from some poetical descriptions of emotional conditions of protagonists, specifically shaped images of Ukrainian nature play a very important role. The images strongly motivate this hypothesis. In this context especially the recurrent motif of steppe is significant, the steppe which is a distinct equivalent of deserted, disinherited and burn out psyche.

The article focuses on the research of Władysław Nehring on Polish Romanticism. It attempts an analysis and assessment of the researcher’s achievements in this field. Polish Romantic literature became an object of Nehring’s interest ever since he worked in schools of Great Poland so before his taking over chair of Slavic philology at the University of Wrocław (1868–1907). Evidence of his fascination with the period of Adam Mickiewicz (this is how Nehring described Polish Romanticism) are substantial passages on this period in his coursebook Kurs literatury polskiej dla użytku szkół (Poznań 1866). Nehring clearly stated there that development of Polish Poetry took place no sooner than in the period of Mickiewicz. In the mature period of his scientific work on literature of Romanticism there are outstanding studies on the most prominent texts by Polish inspired poets. Most important are essays on Grażyna, Konrad Wallenrod and Pan Tadeusz by Adam Mickiewicz, Balladyna and Lilla Weneda by Juliusz Słowacki and Nie-Boska komedia by Zygmunt Krasiński. In his research Nehring particularly paid attention to both cultural background and literary genetics (genre.) He was also the first scholar to systematically research on Mickiewicz’s lectures in Paris (O paryskich prelekcjach Adama Mickiewicza). One of Nehring’s most interesting scientific projects was an attempt to explain the influence of Andrzej Towiański’s texts and personality on Polish Romanticists (Nieznane szczegóły z nauki Andrzeja Towiańskiego).
