„Czułe morderstwa”. Marta Podgórnik w przestrzeni kultury
“Tender homicides”. Marta Podgórnik in the culture sphere

Summary/Abstract: The article contains interpretations of poetry written by Marta Podgórnik during last years, especially poems placed in her volume titled Mordercze ballady [“Tender homicides”] (published in 2018). This analysis of Silesian writer’s output lead to recognitions of aspects, themes, images and intertextual connections it includes. Podgórnik creates pictures of individualistic women who must exist out of main discourses: patriarchal and feministic, but have to live in mass-culture reality. But the most important in this poetry is language used for poetic but subversive descriptions of painful experiences. This lyric faculty of speech allows Podgórnik to use a specific strategy that may be called “produce of presence”, seeming full of intertextual references, taken frequently from literary tradition and mass-culture texts, motifs and themes.
