thanks!
i would be very gratefull if someone can traslate the Mickiewicz poem to english for me.
thanks!

Hello
the title of the poem is "the colonel's death" I advice you to look for the professional translation otherwise you won't be able to fully appreciate the masterpiece

but that's just a suggestion:)

Fisz is American...


Here are some paintings If you want...



Patrol powstańczy by Maksymilian Gierymski - about January uprising.



Olszynka Grochowska by Wojciech Kossak - November uprising.

Poems are very hard to translate, maybe someome will translate more or less but you need to open a new topic in a translation section.

thank you everyone!
i found someone who translated the Mickiewicz poem for me. it is great!
1. is Emilia Platter a polish hero (the poem says she is from Lithuania). i know the two countries were united at that time, but is Emilia Platter considered today to be a polish hero?
2. are there any poems about the 1864 January uprising?
again, thank you very much! you are so nice!

some school in Poland and even polish school in USA have name of Emilia Plater she is like Joana D'Arc for French. tommorow i will try to find some poem about January Upspring. That Time a Poland and Lithuania was like one body so we have same heros from this nice time ...

There must be some but I don't remember now any.

There's Gloria victis by Orzeszkowa, but that's rather a novel.
