Juliusz Słowacki (1809 – 1849) was a Polish Romantic poet.
He is considered one of the "Three Bards" of Polish literature - a major figure in the Polish Romantic period, and the father
of modern Polish drama. His works often feature elements of Slavic pagan traditions, Polish history, mysticism and orientalism.
His style includes the employment of neologisms and irony. His primary genre was the drama, but he also wrote lyric poetry.
His most popular works include the dramas Kordian and Balladyna and the poems Beniowski, Testament mój and Anhelli.
Słowacki spent his youth in the "Stolen Lands", in Kremenets (Polish: Krzemieniec; now in Ukraine) and Vilnius (Polish:
Wilno, in Lithuania). He briefly worked for the government of the Kingdom of Poland. During the November 1830 Uprising,
he was a courier for the Polish revolutionary government. When the uprising ended in defeat, he found himself abroad and
thereafter, like many compatriots, lived the life of an émigré. He settled briefly in Paris, France, and later in Geneva, Switzerland.
He also traveled through Italy, Greece and the Middle East. Eventually he returned to Paris, where he spent the last decade
of his life. He briefly returned to Poland when another uprising broke out during the Spring of Nations (1848).
