Search for: [Abstract = "\"With Fire and Sword\" has many features of fantasy novels and it is a prefigured modern Slavic fantasy. Sienkiewicz, using Old Polish, epic and romantic styling, rejects all forms of modernity.

The space is enriched with elements of folklore with numerous references to Slavic myths, stories and legends about vampires and ghosts."]
