Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to investigate the depictions of masses and multiplicity (as philosophical terms) in A song about Hunger by Bruno Jasieński. The main question of this study is how and why Jasieński created a portrayal of the deterritorialization of a collective protagonist in multiplicity in his first narrative poem. Another aim is to find out how to inscribe A song about Hunger in the field of revolutionary poetry and show the ways of describing authority as a lordship in this poem. Finally, the article describes the interactions of the collective lyrical ego with architecture and urban patterns. As a starting point, the author analyses previous studies about A song about Hunger, especially the works of Krzysztof Jaworski (critically) and Anatol Stern; in the second part, the study focuses on the methods and terms which were created by G. Deleuze, F. Guattari and E. Canetti (rhizome, masses) and U. Eco or G. E. Debord (semiotics of architecture, psychogeography and dérive).
