Summary/Abstract: This article analyses the links between landscape and memory as they appear in the Polish writer Henryk Grynberg poetic works, where the main point of reference is the experience of the Holocaust. Koprowska aims to fill a gap in Grynberg’s reception, which has focused on his prose works, while also pointing out specific readings based on the theory of the cultural landscape. Building on her interpretation of selected poems, Koprowska describes various aspects of the notion of ‘the landscape of memory’ – a notion rooted in the interactive relationship of landscape, subject and memory marked by traumatic experience.
