“The Arabic Answer Has Come Here”. Adam and Wanda Krasiński in Egypt
Abstract
The article contains hitherto unknown information related to the trip of Wanda and Adam Krasiński to Egypt, where they stayed for medical purposes. On the other hand, it testifies to the fact that the count knew the Arabic language. For the Opinogórski ordinate, communication even in Arabic did not pose any problems. Open to new contacts and eager for knowledge, he must have learned it from the local population. The author refers in the article to two letters that confirm the linguistic and travel interests of Adam Krasiński.
