Keywords: Ewa Lipska’s poetry; song; sung poetry; popular culture; reception of the relation between poem and song
Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on a niche (in the context of reception) aspect of Ewa Lipska’s work, namely the formation of the genre of the song on the basis of the literary output of the author associated mainly with high art, which includes poetry. The introduction (quotation and analysis of relevant theoretical texts) introduces the reader into the world of filiation between a poem and a song. The main part of the paper contains interpretations of selected works by Ewa Lipska which were used as song lyrics by such artists as Grzegorz Turnau or Anna Szałapak. In this article the author attempts to destabilise the notion of “sung poetry”, weakening also the stereotypes (connected with arbitrary assigning it only to intellectual poetry) growing around Ewa Lipska’s works.
