Summary/Abstract: The review discusses a monograph (which is a PhD thesis defended at the Institute of Polish Culture, Polish Faculty, Warsaw University) by Andriej Moskwin devoted to the lot of Stanisław Przybyszewski’s literary creativity in Russia around the turn of 19th and 20th c. (1894–1917). The book is valued as a reliable and highly interesting study as far as the material is concerned, it exhaustively analyses all Russian translations of Przybyszewski’s works, their reviews, theatre performances, and screen adaptations. Reproached in the review are the aspect of literary kinship to which little attention is paid, leaving the puzzles of reception history referring to e.g. the attitude of most eminent symbolists to the Polish writer unsettled, and the absence of the analysis of Russian inspirations in Przybyszewski’s literary creativity.
