 Motto
Mickiewicz's fellow-exile and main rival, Juliusz Slowacki (1809-1849), was less appreciated by his contemporaries.
In his poems, Slowacki felt equally at ease in epic description or in lyric confession, in complex stanza patterns or in biblical prose.
His book-length poem in ottava rima, Beniowski (1841), is a magnificent example of the gentre of the "poem of digressions" and of romantic irony, close in its style to Byron's Don Juan and Pushkin's Evgenij Onegin.
