Genesis of Intoxication

Summary/Abstract: A review of the play Samuel Zborowski, directed by Szymon Kaczmarek (Nowy Theater in Łódź, premiere: 05.10.2013). Paprocka tracks the changes that the artists made to the text-based drama to cull its visual potential. The removal of some of Słowacki's vital plots and characters (e.g. Christ) does, to the author's mind, make the meaning of some scenes significantly more superficial, focusing the interpretation on the tension between the citizen striving for freedom in a world "shorn of the Absolute" and the legal state.
