Wyspianski, Stanislaw

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.03 sec.

Wyspiański, Stanislaw (1868-1907)

Polish dramatist, painter, and poet. He harboured a vision of the theatre as a place where all the arts might coalesce to produce a grand symbolic event. The November 1830 rising in Poland against Russian rule is the subject of Warszawianka/The Girl from Warsaw 1898 and Noc listopadowa/November Night 1904. He wrote the highly original drama Wesele/The Wedding in 1901.

Wyspiański's poetic drama continues in many ways the Polish Romantic drama of Adam Mickiewicz and Juliusz Slowacki, but its formal structure links it with Symbolism.
