poems, dramas, journalism and many fragments and unfinished works. After the first poems written in the classic spirit, he published a collection of Poetry, Volume 1 (1822), which marked the beginning of Polish Romanticism (edition of the second, supplemented - 1829). In the "Foreword" and the ballad "Romantyczność" Mickiewicz formulated a new literary program referring to popular beliefs, a world of feelings and fantasy (as opposed to "glass and the eye of a sage"), attention to nature and the presence of the "invisible." In these poetic works, the rigid boundaries of genres are erased, poetics of parables, ballads and dumas are used (the most famous poems of this period are Romantika, Svitiz, Svitzyanka, Three Budrys, Paris).
