Abstract: The present article is a study of Maurice Maeterlinck’s reception in Stanisław Przybyszewski’s life and works from 1895 – when he received The Collected Dramas from Zenon Przesmycki – until 1902. Maeterlinck’s influence on Przybyszewski dates back to his reading of Przesmycki’s study on Maurice Maeterlinck. His Position in Belgian and Universal Literature, it took definitely root in 1899, when Przybyszewski gave a conference on „Mysticism and Maeterlinck” in Cracow, and peaked in 1902 when the première of Guests took place in Lviv and the first part of A Few Notes about Theatre and Scene was published in Kurier Teatralny. Literary reception is analysed in relation with cultural context and Przybyszewski’s biography.
