Stanisław Trembecki

Stanisław Trembecki (8 May 1739 – 12 December 1812) was a Polish Enlightenment poet and translator, well known for his poems Na dzień siódmy września and Nadgrobek hajduka that are said to have started a new trend in Polish political lyric poetry.

[2] Trembecki wrote odes, fables, and libertine poems in additional to his classical style poetry praising kings and other nobility.

Trembecki was known as a drunk and a Don Juan and fought a number of duels throughout Europe.

[3] In his writings, Polish poet Apollo Korzeniowski recalls an episode where an obscure Rococo poet, Wojciech (Adalbert) Mier, won Trembecki's translation of the fourth song of Torquato Tasso's Jerusalem Delivered in a game of cards, which Mier then published under his own name.
