Michael Grabowski (1805–1863)
Grabowski, Michael (gräb-ov’skē). A Polish novelist, essayist, and critic; born in Volhynia in 1805; died at Warsaw, Nov. 18, 1863. ‘Thoughts on Polish Literature’ and ‘Melodies from the Ukraine’ were his first noteworthy volumes; but the revolution of 1830 interrupted his literary career for nearly ten years, when he completed ‘Criticism and Literature.’ Two historical novels, entitled, respectively, ‘The Koliszezysna and the Steppe Dwellers’ and ‘The Storm in the Steppes,’ are fine examples of Polish literature. An epoch-making work is his ‘The Old and the New Ukraine.’
