Wpaść w słowo mordercom. Paul Celan wobec recepcji własnej twórczości w kontekście powojennych niemieckojęzycznych dyskursów artystyczno‑politycznych
Interrupting When the Murderers Talk. Paul Celan on the Reception of His Works in the Context of Postwar German‑language Artistic and Political Discourses

Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt at analysing the mechanisms of discursive and symbolic violence that could be found in German‑language reception of the works by Paul Celan. The criticism – among others by Günter Blöcker and Hans Egon Holthusen – was often grounded upon anti‑Semitism; Celan reacted to such criticism highly affectively, noting with concern the return of rhetoric resembling that of Nazi propaganda. The poet expressed his anxieties in a series of letters and several poems; the author of this article interprets them.
