LORD’S BEAUTY UNSURPASSED IS WORTHY OF MY OWN! ON SOME LITERARY TESTIMONIES OF WŁADYSŁAW ZAMOYSKI’S PRESENCE IN ZAKOPANE

Summary/Abstract: The article presents some little-known, short literary works by Henryk Sienkiewicz and Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz, as well as Stanisław Konstanty Drohojowski, the owner of Czorsztyn Castle, and his daughters: Anna, Aleksandra and Helena. The works are devoted to Władysław zamoyski and his presence in zakopane. As such, they are an extraordinary literary evidence of his time in the Tatra Mountains. Sienkiewicz and Witkacy describe zamoyski's daily life in zakopane in a humorous manner, particularly his relations with the neighbours around him. In turn, the poems written by Stanisław Drohojowski and his daughters, maintained in a serious tone, depict the Count as a hero who salvaged Morskie Oko for the Polish nation.
