Adam Mickiewicz

 

From The Roman Years of Margaret Fuller, 1969 by Joseph Jay Deiss

This "real and important realtion," as Margaret described her feelings for Mickiewicz, began with a not attached to a gift volume of Emerson's most recent poems. "As I had heard a great deal of him which charmed me . . . I asked him to come and see me. He came, and I found in him the man I had long wished to see, with the intellect and passionns in due proportion for a full and healthy human being, with a soul constantly inspiring."

Adam Mickiewicz was indeed an extraordinary figure. His vitality denied his almost fifty years, and he remained strikingly handsome. Blue-eyed and blond, vigorous and athletic in body, this national poet of Poland totally negated popular conceptions of poets ad feeble intellectuals. He was not only the epic poet of Poland,  . . but also the revolutionary leader of his coutnry, . . (etc).

Margaret Fuller was not the first American Mickiewicz had known, for James Fenimore Cooper (The Last of the Mohicans) had been his friend in Rome. But it was Margaret who made the most profound impression on him. Their encounter, he said, was one of those which "consoles and foritifies." She was "a true person." More—she was "the only woman to whom it has been given to touch what is decisive in the present world and to have a presentiment of the world of the future."

He spoke to Margaret with a directness which must have been wonderfully refreshing to her . . .(etc).
