Miron Białoszewski jako miejski rytmoanalityk. O roli spojrzenia w Chamowie
Miron Białoszewski as the Urban Rhythmanalytic: On Function of the Gaze in Chamowo

Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes Chamowo, a journal by Miron Białoszewski, in which the writer recounts his experience of the block housing estate in Lizbonska street in Warsaw. The leitmotive in the text is the function of the gaze as Białoszewski devotes special attention to the action of looking through the window of his new flat. By concentrating on this apparently prosaic activity, the author of the article reflects upon the ways in which a city can be perceived and lived in. She also analyses the ways of narrating the urban space and representing the everyday of block housing estates, to include finally the rhythmanalysis of the urban space.The article analyzes Chamowo, a journal by Miron Białoszewski, in which the writer recounts his experience of the block housing estate in Lizbonska street in Warsaw.
