Abstract
The article focuses on the novel by Jan Czyński Cesarzewicz Konstanty i Joanna Grudzińska, czyli Jakubini polscy, analysed in the context of the Romantic cultural stereotypes concerning Polish-Russian relations formed after the November Uprising. While presenting the novel’s plot (the ambivalence surrounding the figure of Grand Duke Constantine, political life in the Kingdom of Poland, the opposition patriots vs. conformists, the operation of secret police services in Warsaw), the author proves that the pamphlet character of the novel (correlated with Czyński’s personal political involvement) makes it an instructive compendium of motifs constituting the image of Russia in Polish literature within the Romantic paradigm.
