Antoni Malczewski (born 3 June 1793, died 2 May 1826) was Polish poet and romantic writer, with Seweryn Goszczynski and Jozef Bohdan Zaleski a member of so-called Ukrainian school of poets (Ukraine was a part of Poland at the time, however non existed on maps of Europe as a result of partitions). He was an author of the first Polish poetic novel Maria (1835). His main inspiration is said to be George Gordon Byron, very popular among Polish writers at the time of Romantism (in partitioned Poland it occurred in 19th century).

Antoni Malczewski was also the 8th man (and the 1st Pole) to reach the peak of Mont Blanc in 1818, the mountain also mentioned by Juliusz Slowacki in Kordian.
