	Aleksander Fredro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aleksander Fredro ( 1793 â“ 1876) was a Polish poet and writer, author of social comedies about Polish nobility lifestyle.
		In his comedies, Fredro has shown mastership in character's profile, in action forming, and flexibility of the language.
		Fredro's tales, for example MaÅpa w kÄpieli ( Monkey in bath) or PaweÅ i GaweÅ ( PaweÅ and GaweÅ) are children's reading books.

		The rest of his long life, both public and private (a happy marriage which crowned a ten-year-long fight for his beloved to divorce her first husband, his parliamentary activities in the Estates Parliament and his membership of the Academy of Learning in Kraków), was connected with Galicia and the Austrian protectorate.
		In Fredro's plays (he was not a Romantic but rather, with his interest in an individual's depths, a comedy writer of the Romantic period) the unambiguity of human characters disappears, man and the world are more complicated than in the Classicist-Enlightenment or plebeian tradition.
		Fredro, being remote from Messianic views, was accused by some contemporary critics of a lack of patriotism and civic attitude.

	Polish culture: Aleksander Fredro, "The Annuity", directed by Jan Englert
		This classic text of Polish comedy dated in the first half of the 19th century was directed by Jan Englert.
		Fredro introduced there the character called Latka (Jan Englert), an usurer, who buys out the life rent of Birbancki (Grzegorz Malecki).
		Fredro's text may therefore be given a contemporary dimension and instead of showing Poland of the 19.

	Review of The Revenge (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		B ased on Aleksander Fredro’s 1833 play, Andrzej Wajda’s new film version once again demonstrates that Wajda is at his best when he leaves behind politics and instead delves into the country’s classic literary texts for his material and inspiration.
		In Wajda’s film, Fredro’s trochaic tetrameter is set in motion against a living landscape of the run-down family castle under contention.
		Wajda closes in a way that reminds us we are watching a piece of theatre—the curtain closes (a la Baz Luhrman of Moulin Rouge, among others) and each character comes forward to speak a particularly witty line of his or her dialogue before stepping back to bow and receive praise from the posited audience.

		He's got style, he's got wit, he pitches his voice like a nervous, fluttering flute, and he creates a physical language that reveals, as much as the dialogue, how desperate his character is to be loved and respected.
		Directed by Wajda, Zemsta is adapted from a classic Polish stage farce by Aleksander Fredro.
		Set in the 17th century, when noblemen had been drained of their ancestral legacies, it's the story of crabby Czesnik and bilious Rejent, feuding neighbors who inhabit separate parts of a crumbling castle and thrive on making each other miserable.

	Toronto Slavic Quarterly : Tamara Trojanowska
		Fredro's works, however, are more than traditional comedies of manners.
		At the beginning, the characters are still capable of using language, although the parody of Fredro's verse is immediately apparent.
		Nevertheless, changes in the modes of communication, of behaviour, and of human relationships were well observed but failed to surpass the diagnoses of modern civilization currently found on the pages of glossy magazines.

	Polish culture: Aleksander Fredro, "Ladies and Hussars"
		As required reading for all school-aged children in Poland, the play is associated with matinee shows and a classical, and therefore boring and predictable, storyline.
		Many directors view Fredro's play to be child's play, a cheerful and simple story about good times in Old Poland.
		They retreat into their dream of a lost past and lost youth, of national myths and fables, and they will awake when the cannon fires again.

		This extraordinary and inspired work from Poland's Teatr Rozmaitosci (Theatre of Diversity) can best be described as a deconstructionist assault on one of the masters of the Polish stage.
		Aleksander Fredro, called the Polish Moliere, wrote Magnetism of the Heart, a comedy of manners about the fate of two sisters in a country manor whose covenant never to marry goes comically awry.
		Despite the irreverent and provocative approach of director Sylwia Torsh (a.k.a.Grzegorz Jarzyna), the production retains the most important element which is the irrefutable power of attractions of the heart, overriding the barriers of family and cosmic interventions.

		After all of the hoopla in Poland over last year's release of Andrzej Wajda's cinematic take on Aleksander Fredro's play Zemsta (Revenge), non-Polish speakers can finally watch the movie with English subtitles-on DVD-and see what all the hype was about.
		Zemsta is adapted from a classic Polish stage farce, set in the 17th century, when noblemen were drained of their ancestral legacies.
		All of this aside, it's thanks to the oft-times brilliant acting by the cast (Polanski and Olbrychski are standouts) that the film retains the light and funny tone that Wajda and Fredro intended.

		Probably, my verse translations of three Fredro comedies, partly, of course, because these have been so generously acknowledged by the Poles.
		But it's also a source of great satisfaction to me that, although Fredro's name was hardly known outside Poland, the BBC World Service Drama Department chose to broadcast two of the plays, Revenge and Virgins' Vows.

		The film version of Aleksander Fredro's famous play stars Katarzyna Figura, Agata Buzek, Janusz Gajos, Andrzej Seweryn and Daniel Olbrychski.
		The fact that I can return to the Polish of Mickiewicz and Fredro, and not to the language of the press, makes me extremely happy.
		The same is true of another reunion with Andrzej Wajda and my fellow actors on the set, because regardless of where I am living and performing, Poland was, and continues to be, the true base of my professional work.”
