Teodor Jeske-Choiński (27 February 1854 – 14 April 1920) was a Polish intellectual, writer, historian and literary critic.
Whilst Sienkiewicz's novels were focused on Polish history, Jeske-Choiński’s looked at the broader European context.
In 1900 he published Tiara i korona, a novel about the dispute between the Emperor Henry IV and Pope Gregory VII.
[1] Joanna Michlic named him "one of the leading theorists and exponents of antisemitism in Poland".
[2] In 1951, the communist censors completely banned all of his books, resulting in Jeske-Choiński being largely forgotten amongst the Polish public.
