Abstract

This article aims to reveal the role Leopold Méyet – an attorney, bibliophile, and collector – played in developing, publishing and popularizing Eliza Orzeszkowa’s works. The source of the analysis is the correspondence of friends, including Méyet’s unpublished letters to Orzeszkowa from 1878 to 1910. The matter of the publication of the writer’s works appeared in the first epistolary dialogues in 1879 and was a subject of interest to Méyet until he died in 1912. Working on publishing Orzeszkowa’s works had a superior status in friends’ correspondence. It was a process which has determined, to a large extent determined, the relations between Orzeszkowa and Méyet.
