Abstract

During his short stay in Wrocław in the course of his studies, Jan Kasprowicz was also very active in politics. It was connected with his participation in the organisation called “Pa- cyfik” [“Pacific”], which was associated with German social democracy. For this reason, he was arrested and tried in one of the largest trials in Germany performed on the basis of anti-socialist laws. Due to the fact that he was a Pole, he received one of the most severe sentences in the trial in Wrocław in 1887. Jan Kasprowicz’s stay in Wrocław was one of the most difficult periods in his life. As a result of the Wrocław experience, he finally gave up political activity and took up exclusively literary activities.
