Silesian Gorals in descriptions of journeys “to the springs of the Vistula” by Ludwik Zejszner, Lucjan Malinowski, Adolf Pawiński, František Sláma and Bogumił Hoff

Summary/Abstract: The article shows the image of the inhabitants of the Silesian Beskid which emerges from the travel descriptions of people who visited the mountainous area of Cieszyn Silesia in the 19th century. It focuses on the way in which representatives of the intelligentsia of the time, who came from outside the Duchy of Cieszyn (1290-1918), depicted and created images of the nature and distinctiveness/otherness of the Silesian Gorals, and how what was highland was myth-making.
