%X The article undertakes an alternative interpretation of Juliusz Słowacki’s Lambro as a political poem whose real theme is not so much despair caused by the past as it is the possibility of retaliation after defeat. I would argue that even if Lambro is not fully involved in the politics of the Polish émigré community, it is nevertheless a work inspired by it, and the “Greek costume” masks current references to Józef Zaliwski’s partisans.
