O biograficznym kontekście Mickiewiczowskich deziluzji miłosnych

Abstract
To some extent Mickiewicz’s biography was already formed and turned into a myth by the poet’s son and his other apologetic researchers. During this process some of the documents were destroyed which resulted in the reduction of important contexts. However, the article actually shows one of these contexts and describes a Vilnius-Kaunas period of the poet’s life, especially his mental dilemmas after parting ways with Maria Puttkamer, de domo Wereszczak.
Her presence in the biography and works of Adam Mickiewicz was a result of a strong, mutual feeling. This affection is seen by the researches as an archmodel of romantic love, our Polish Werter’s paradigm. It was nothing more than presuppositions based mostly on Mickiewicz’s works that created the myths and legends around the poet’s acquaintance with Puttkamer. After finding some crucial documents, such as birth and death registration acts of Helena, the Puttkamer’s daughter, it is possible to enrich the interpretation of the letter correspondence and therefore to see the poet’s texts through the slightly different, biographical prism.
