Teodor Jeske-Choiński (February 27, 1854 - April 14, 1920 ) was a Polish intellectual, writer and historian, literature critic. A friend and opponent of Henryk Sienkiewicz. Sienkiewicz novels were focused rather on Polish history, whereas Jeske-Choińskis were looking at 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 Beata Michlic named him "one of the leading theorists and exponents of Anti-Semitism in Poland".[2]
