Abstract
This article explores the genesis of The Peasants, a novel by the Polish writer and Nobel Prize award – Władysław Stanisław Reymont. The analysis incorporates perspectives from both Polish and European scholars. To shed light on the novel’s origins, the study draws parallels between Reymont’s work and selected novels by French authors, specifically Émile Zola’s naturalistic novel La Terre (Earth), Honoré de Balzac’s realist novel Père Goriot (Father Goriot), and William Shakespeare’s tragedy King Lear.
