Poezja dermooptyczna Jadwigi Stańczakow
Jadwiga Stańczakowa’s Dermo-Optical Poetry

Summary/Abstract: The paper demonstrates the significance of bio-introscopy, or dermo-optical perception, to Jadwiga Stańczakowa’s poetry. Searching for the connection between Stańczakowa’s poems and her exercise in distinguishing colours and objects, Marta Tomczok describes the concept of dermo-optical perception, created by Lech Emfazy Stefański, Stańczakowa’s teacher and co-creator of the Theatre at Tarczyńska Street, with the language of poetics, analysing a large group of poems from Stańczakowa’s rich output. Thanks to juxtaposing dermo-optical perception with the concept of embodied wisdom by Juhani Pallasmaa, Stańczakowa’s poetry becomes more than an individual struggle to maintain eyewitnessing in literature; it transforms into a kind of art similar to sculpture or architecture, oriented to its own processualism, as well as such multisensory artistic creation that embodies wisdom.
