A conversational poem by Szymborska in light of the theory of communication ethics

Author(s): Tomasz Żurawlew

Keywords: Szymborska; communication ethics

Summary/Abstract: My reflection consists in analysing the relation between the phenomenon of the ethos of human speech and three conversational works by Wisława Szymborska and in describing the dialogical forms created in the poems based on the theory of communicative morality. I argue that an analysis of Szymborska’s pieces from such a perspective might be useful in popularising moral communication attitudes in teaching. I find her poems, full of existential anxiety, expressing humanism without pathos and grandiose words, a valuable medium for arousing sensitivity to human individuality and the value of language as a means of building a relationship with another human being.
