Pankowski and Giedroyć – Extracts from Correspondence

Summary/Abstract: Jan Burnatowski covers a several-year correspondence between Marian Pankowski and Jerzy Giedroyć – the publisher of the émigré Kultura magazine. Providing numerous quotes, the author pulls out what she believes to be the most important and interesting strains of the correspondence. He therefore has a look at Pankowski’s work in journalism, which included serving as an envoy for Kultura at the International PEN Club Meet in Amsterdam in 1954. Burnatowski also mentions Pankowski’s opinions on the work of Polish authors expressed in his letters, with particular emphasis on Witold Gombrowicz, whom he admired. Finally, he shares the quarrel concerning Pankowski’s literary work, causing a rift in his collaboration with Giedroyć, who did not want to publish his prose.
