Konrad Wallenrod: A Modern English Paraphrase of Adam Mickiewicz's Poem - Paperback

by Adam Mickiewicz (Author), Maude Ashurst Biggs (Translator), Leslie Noelani Laurio (Author)

A historic tale by the Polish poet Adam Mickiewicz in 1828 now paraphrased into modern, easy to read English prose. This story of the struggle between Lithuania and Germany struck a chord with patriotic Poles, who were involved in struggles with Russia. It is believed that Frederic Chopin based his Ballade No.1 in G minor on this poem.
