Publisher's Synopsis
Konrad Wallenrod: A Historical Poem is a literary work written by Adam Mickiewicz in 1882. The story is set in medieval Lithuania and tells the tale of Konrad Wallenrod, a young man who becomes a knight and joins the Order of the Teutonic Knights. However, as he becomes more involved with the Order, he begins to question their motives and ultimately turns against them. The poem is a reflection on the struggle between national identity and loyalty to a foreign power, as well as the consequences of such conflicts. It is considered one of the most important works of Polish Romantic literature and has been translated into many languages.
