Summary/Abstract: The considerations refer to the XIX century and the turn of the XIX and XX centuries, when Poland faced the thrall of three invaders: Prussia, Russia and Austria-Hungary. According to the Author, the noble patriotic and religious attitude of the Polish elites was activated in this specific period in the history of Poland. General Mariusz Zaruski provided for a glorious page of the Polish history. The Author focuses on the biography and achievements of this outstanding individual in order to publicise them. He intends to show his truly heroic attitude. He emphasises that it should become the pattern of conduct to be followed by the current generation of children, teenagers, and parents, and tutors. Wherever his whereabouts was, in the mountains, at the seaside, especially in hardest moments of his life, General Zaruski showed the noble features of the Polish nation, deeply rooted in the ideal of the knightship, nobility, aristocracy, which derived from Latin civilisation that took its origin from Greece and Rome.
