Among Sienkiewicz's most famous novels is the widely translated and several times filmed Quo Vadis? (1896). His strongly Catholic world view marked deeply his writing. Sienkiewicz's works have been published in 50 languages. "And Peter understood that neither Caesar nor all his legions could overcome the living truth, that they could not overwhelm it with tears or blood, and that now its victory was beginning. He understood with equal force why the Lord had turned him back on the road. That city of pride, crime, wickedness, and power was beginning to be His city, and the double capital, from which would flow out upon the world government of souls and bodies. " (from Quo Vadis? Henryk Sienkiewicz was born to a well-to-do family in Wola Okrzejska, a town in Russian-ruled Poland. Because of economic difficulties, the family sold their rural property and moved to Warsaw. Sienkiewicz attended Warsaw Gymnasium and in 1866 he entered the Polish University (Szkola Glowna). He studied law and medicine, and later history and literature. While a student he started to write newspaper columns. Inspired by the novels of Sir Walter Scott and Alexandre Dumas , Sienkiewicz composed his first historical story, Ofiara (The Sacrifice), of which no manuscript is known to survive. After founding himself penniless, he left the university without receiving a degree. He worked in the 1870s as a freelance journalist, and wrote short stories and novels. His first novel

3. Sienkiewicz Offers a brief biographical sketch.Category Arts Literature Authors S Sienkiewicz, Henryk......Henryk Sienkiewicz 18461916. Regarded as The Patriot Novelist ofPoland , a Nobel Prize winner, Henryk Sienkiewicz is perhaps best http://www.polishamericancenter.com/Sienkiewicz.htm

Henryk Sienkiewicz Regarded as "The Patriot Novelist of Poland", a Nobel Prize winner, Henryk Sienkiewicz is perhaps best known for his epic historical novel Quo Vadis, which depicts early Christianity and the persecutions. Raised during the era of Poland's partitions and the cultural oppression of the nations surrounding this vulnerable land, Sienkiewicz attempted to fan the coals of patriotism among his countrymen. It has been reported that Poles would pin pages of Sienkiewicz's books to their clothing as reminders of their struggle for freedom. Sienkiewicz pleaded on behalf of his oppressed compatriots by addressing open letters to the governments and prominent men of Europe, protesting against the acts of injustice which victimized his nation. Notably, in 1901, he exposed the persecution of Polish school children at the hands of the Prussian government. Throughout his lifetime, Sienkiewicz sought to prepare his nation's people to be citizens of a reborn country to which he pointed the way, but did not live to see. Two years after his death, Poland's boundaries were restored and once again assured her rightful place in the roster of nations. Among Sienkiewicz's other major literary works are: The Trilogy, (composed of three historical novels set in the 17th Century known as With Fire and Sword, The Deluge, Fire in the Steppe), The Teutonic Knights, In Desert and Wilderness and After Bread, Letters From America. These last works were inspired by Siekiewicz's trip to America.

I have discovered that the lives of some of them were extraordinary. Some of them became famous and very influential: Tomasz Mineyko Zygmunt Mineyko Henryk Sienkiewicz Georgios Papandreou ... Ksawery Puslowski (1906-1998), others remained unknown. However, all of them had very interesting lives that became evident to me when I had the opportunity to learn more about them. For example, who would have thought that Andreas Papandreou who was the Prime Minister of Greece for many years and led the political fight against Turkey, might have anything in common with the leaders of the battle of Vienna (between the united forces of Europe and the Ottoman Empire on September 12, 1683). His uncle prince Stanislaw Jablonowski was a direct descendent of general Stanislaw Jablonowski who led the Polish infantry and cavalry in this battle. The general Jablonowski was the second leader of united forces after monarch Jan III Sobieski. His other uncle, count Karol Ludwik Potocki, was a descendent of another general who took part in the same battle. Who would have thought that

Henryk Sienkiewicz (1846-1916), the most outstanding and prolific Polish writer of the second half of the nineteenth century, was born in Wola Okrzejska, in the Russian part of Poland. His father's family was actively engaged in the revolutionary struggles for Polish independence, which accounts for the strong patriotic element in Sienkiewicz' work. Historical scholarship on the other hand ran in his mother's family. Sienkiewicz studied in Warsaw, but without any visible results. His talent as a writer was soon discovered. His early works are satirical sketches, betraying a strong social conscience. He made a trip to America in 1876 and travelled as far as California. His impressions were published in Polish newspapers and received very favourably. His travels provided him with material for several works, among them the brilliant short story Latarnik The Lighthouse Keeper After his return to Poland, Sienkiewicz devoted himself to historical studies, the result of which was his great trilogy about Poland in the midseventeenth century. Ogniem i mieczem With Fire and Sword Potop The Deluge ] and Pan Wolodyjowski Pan Michael ] were published in 1884, 1886, and 1888 respectively.

But the work that was to earn him a Nobel Prize for Literature in 1905, that has been translated into 38 languages, and is still generally considered the prototype of the national European novel, is his "Trilogy." The "Trilogy" was published in Polish in book form between 1884-1888, using a text derived from newspaper clippings. It was reissued in 1929 in the famous Second Edition of Professor Ignacy Chrzanowski, which was restructured and revised into its final shape by Professor Julian Krzyzanowski in 1948-1954, and which is the basis for the current new translation for the modern reader. Henryk Sienkiewicz was born May 5, 1846 in Podlasie in the northeast region of Poland. While there was no independent Poland on the maps of Europe at that time, Sienkiewicz cultivated a traditional sense of Polish patriotism while growing up in his family's country manor. "I don't know if it was those artifacts, portraits, monuments and marble faces that brought the wind of past centuries into my life and carried the seeds of independence that grew within my soul into my historical novels," he once remarked.
