Komizm w twórczości Norwida (na materiale literackim i plastycznym) – Klary Nagnioszewskiej samobójstwo
Comism in Norwid’s Writings (Based on Literary and Artistic Material) – Klary Nagnioszewskiej samobójstwo (The Suicide of Klara Nagnioszewska)

Summary/Abstract: Compositions of Cyprian Norwid, considered to be a serious, intellectual writer, a philosopher, include also works which deny this slightly schematic image. Klary Nagnioszewskiej samobójstwo (The Suicide of Klara Nagnioszewska) is an example of an iconoverbal text, in which comism comes to the foreground. Comic elements reveal consecutive structural aspects of the work: genre, which is a kind of game with recalled genological (in the form of parody) realizations, either directly or indirectly (tragedy, romance, comic), fictitious level and creation of characters (undergone caricatured exaggeration by focusing on the main features of the title heroine) and complementary sketch completion (enhancing satirical picture of the written version). Norwid’s comism in this text is mostly based on an ironic, distanced view of reality which for the poet was a connection of tragic and comic qualities. Then it has to be stated that such comism does not take the form of a humorous presentation of the world, but it has a satirical attitude, thus, according to general assumptions of the author’s writings, it is axiologically involved.
