Literatura i literaturoznawstwo regionów. W stronę polilogu, otwartości i zaangażowania
Regional Literature and Literary Studies. Towards Polylogue, Openness and Commitment

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the phenomenon of “decentralization” of literature and literary culture in Poland after 1989. The author focuses his attention on regional cultural magazines, literature in selected regions as well as on regionalism in literary studies. He analyzes their relationship with the activation and empowerment of local intellectual and literary communities, the transformation of their social identity and the revision of history and collective memory. Literature and literary studies of the regions, according to the author, contributed to the transformation of Polish culture, creating in it a space for the voice of minorities, migrants, expellees and inhabitants of the borderlands.
