Polityka, poetyka i „tragizm istnienia”. Cenzorska recepcja cyklu powieściowego „Młyny Boże” Kazimierza Truchanowskiego
Politics, poetics and “existential tragedy”. The reception of “The Mills of the God” novel series by Kazimierz Truchanowski by the censorship bureau

Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes the reception of Kazimierz Truchanowski’s novel cycle “The Mills of the God”, published between 1961 and 1967, by the censorship bureau. The analysis offers insight into the interesting process of growing tolerance – and indifference – of the censorship bureau towards this kind of hermetic, non-epic prose: far from the official cultural course, but at the same time not engaging in open conflict with it. Review of cen-sors’ reception of the subsequent parts of Truchanowski’s novel can be seen as a contribu¬tion to the history of the so-called “socparnasizm” as well as to the history of the growing pragmatism of the censorship board (and its de-ideologization).
