The leitmotif of the eighth volume of Private Lives of Poles in the Nineteenth Century is the world of a nineteenth-century man approached from the angle of privacy. The issue of masculinity has become the subject of research in Polish humanities relatively recently. The historiography on the era usually portrays men from the perspective of public activity, paid work, participation in military campaigns and national uprisings, as well as through the roles set in social consciousness, augmented by the standards and canons observed at the time. The authors of the publication present men in an (un)usual way – from the perspective of their everyday life, private relations, inner emotions, their childhood, physical and mental identity, perception of civilizational, cultural and social changes and reactions to the empowerment of women. The main characters in the volume are Polish men from different social milieux, at various stages in life, with diverse educational background, living within the historical Polish territory as well as dispersed over other parts of Europe. These are men not only playing important roles in the society, men whose biographies are commonly known, but also actors completely unknown.
