Abstract

This article is a continuation on considerations undertaken in article “Literary portrait of the first Polish female students (contexst of emancipatory), „Prace Literaturoznawcze” 2014, vol. 2 Subject of the article leeded to one question, how expressed the above-mentioned Polish literary discourse from the early period of the 70s till the end of the 80s nineteenth century, found women's access to higher education. In this part I analyzed the political and national arguments which raised the authors of novels like Józef Ignacy Kraszewski, Franciszek Rawita-Gawroński, Teodor Tomasz Jeż, Ostoja i Maria Rodziewiczówna. I summoned the opinions of contemporary authors e.g. Elizy Orzeszkowej. Analyses indicate a fairly widespread lack of acceptance for women's studies. Clear is that, among the novel's characters is not successful women.
