Summary/Abstract: Literary comparisons of Tadeusz Różewicz and Zbigniew Herbert mainly stress differences between them. The aim of my paper is to change the usual approach and argue that they both “interweave in Norwid”, to put it metaphorically. I claim that the latter could be viewed as a link that binds the two different, even conflicted one might say, poetical approaches. Norwid treated as the {principium comparationis} helps to recognize subtle similarities and sometimes, paradoxically, differences they entail. Apart from “Norwid-focused reading”, I additionally recapitulate poetic readings of Norwid’s {Czułość} ({Tenderness}).
