Summary/Abstract: This article is an attempt to analyse relationships and personal contacts Franciszek Karpiński had with other men of letters that are confi rmed in memoirs, correspondence and poems. The author’s aim is to gather these literary contacts and present them as a single entity enabling another look at the phenomenon of Karpiński’s career. Such an approach, complementing the research on Karpiński’s literary output, may help to decide on the extent to which other writers had a direct influence on his literature and, consequently, bring new arguments to the discussion about the originality of works by one of the most popular Polish poets.
