Teatr fantastyki w Rękopisie znalezionym w Saragossie Jana Potockiego

- Summary/Abstract:The present article analyses the fantasy themes in the Rękopis znaleziony w Saragossie by Jan Potocki from the perspective of their theatricality. The Rękopis, traditionally treated as a novel which exposes the belief in supernatural phenomena, appears in the interpretative perspective that was embraced as a work which reveals in a penetrating way complex relations between truth and illusion as well as the facility with which the boundary between these two things may be modified. This problem does not assume merely the forms of epistemological or psychological reflection – also the ways of creating novelistic and theatrical illusion are problematised in this context on a level with the methods of their deconstruction. These observations lead us to a conclusion that against the background of its contemporary novels, the Rękopis constitutes an example of an exceptionally conscious and multi‑faceted use of the convention of fantasy literature.

Inność w Marii Antoniego Malczewskiego
Inność w Marii Antoniego Malczewskiego
(Otherness in Maria by Antoni Malczewski)
- Author(s):Małgorzata Więzik
- Language:Polish
- Subject(s):Language and Literature Studies, Literary Texts, Studies of Literature, Philology, Theory of Literature
- Page Range:33-57
- No. of Pages:25
- Summary/Abstract:The author of the article attempts to prove that Otherness in Maria by Antoni Malczewski is not limited merely to the protagonists of the poem but also involves the nature that was created by the writer (the flora and the fauna) as well as the beliefs and customs. This aspect has to do also with the entire group of artists – “the Ukrainian school of Polish Romanticism” – within which Malczewski is classified. At the same time, the article represents a contribution to the discussion about post‑colonialism and the Polish contexts of this phenomenon that goes on in the humanities.

Moreover, the author discusses the mysteries (inter alia the“lampa Akermanu,” the interjection “Aa!”), which heretofore have not been solved bythe researchers.

„już ostygł w poezji” – „Nienawidzę go” – „podałem mu rękę – i teraz jesteśmy razem” Mickiewicz w listach Słowackiego
„już ostygł w poezji” – „Nienawidzę go” – „podałem mu rękę – i teraz jesteśmy razem”
Mickiewicz w listach Słowackiego

- No. of Pages:21
- Summary/Abstract:The article presents the image of Adam Mickiewicz which is contained in thecorrespondence of Juliusz Słowacki. The publication demonstrates that Słowacki’s attitude toward Mickiewicz underwent a constant evolution. At the beginning the young poet sought understanding with the “first bard” exclusively in the field of literature; he wanted to learn Mickiewicz’s opinion about his work and to meet him. However, in the subsequent years Słowacki indulged in more and more daring comments (also in ones which went beyond the sphere of literature) in reference to the creator of Pan Tadeusz and at the same time he desired to level the literary distance between them. What is important is that in Słowacki’s epistolography there is reflected a dramatic change which the poet underwent in reference to the acquaintance with the ideological programme of the Koło Sprawy Bożej, which also influenced the relation of the “second bard” with Mickiewicz. Moreover, the article also directs the reader’s attention to the ways in which Słowacki’s statements about Mickiewicz are constructed, inter alia about the careful choice of vocabulary and the peculiar arrangements of passages concerning the adversary against the background of a given letter.

Godzina myśli wymarzona w duszy Słowackiego w kontekście jego fascynacji światem Calderóna
Godzina myśli wymarzona w duszy Słowackiego w kontekście jego fascynacji światem Calderóna
(The hour of thought (Godzina myśli) imagined in Słowacki’s soul in the context of his fascination with the world of Calderón)
- Author(s):Anna Głowa
- Language:Polish
- Subject(s):Language and Literature Studies, Literary Texts, Studies of Literature, Philology, Theory of Literature
- Page Range:123-146
- No. of Pages:24
- Summary/Abstract:The article is an attempt at an analysis of Godzina myśli (The Hour of Thought) as a text which is a point of departure in the discussion of a creative parallel between the work of Pedro Calderón and Juliusz Słowacki – a theme which was frequently engaged.The hour of thought i.e. “the most beautiful dream of the imagination” of the poet reveals the fundamental role of the imagination in the images created by this poet. It is the imagination which imposes on him specific – ideal – spaces as well as details. It presents Słowacki as a visionary and the great master of the word who saw through the eyes of his own fantasy the images of the author of El príncipe constante. Moreover, he felt those images as if he created them himself.Słowacki is the “visualiser” type who paints with words, similarly as Calderón who idealises images. The Spaniard’s point is – above all – to present reality “as he dreamt it in his soul.” It seems that it is exactly idealisation, imagination and sympathy that constitute the fundamental point of departure in the discussion about the creative analogy between the Pole and the Spaniard.

Cyganeria warszawska a proces kształtowania się nowoczesnego rynku czytelniczego
(The Cyganeria warszawska and the process of the formation of the modern readership market)

- Language:Polish

- Page Range:147-163
- No. of Pages:17
- Summary/Abstract:The article engages the problems of the role of the Cyganeria warszawska in theprocess of the formation of the modern readership market. It presents the influence of the members of this group upon the mentality‑related changes and upon the developmentof literature toward democratisation and modernisation of the readership market.It proves that the activity of the group was not merely a gaudy spot on the map of the 19th‑century society but that it effectively challenged the existing relations. Forthe cyganie (Bohemians) managed to stir the ossified society not only with their way oflife but also with their literature. By deriding the lack of authenticity and the hypocrisy of inter‑human relations they contributed to the decline of the many‑year tradition of lordly patronage. This form of supporting poets never involved disinterested aid – the cyganie demonstrated that accepting such aid was tantamount to selling oneself and giving up oneself, and they could not bear such a thing.The article also engages the problems of the influence of the members of the Cyganeriawarszawska upon the change in the way the poet was perceived – they managed to combine courage in facing poverty with the solidification of the image of men of letters who rose above the multitude. The question of the way in which the audience – the pillar of the democratic marked – perceived them is also discussed.

- Summary/Abstract:The object of analyses contained in the article is the decorative edition of KonradWallenrod and Grażyna of 1851; the author of the editorial concept of this book, the designer of its illustrations and its editor was Jan Tysiewicz. The aim of the argument is to consider how the graphic arts visualise the literary word and also how it interprets, modifies it and how it generates unexpected meanings, which enables the emergence of a common space of reception in which the literary imagination meets the graphical imagination. The problems to which I devote my work are located at the boundary of two main disciplines: the history of literature and the history of art. The question about the primary differences between a text and an illustration as well as the question of introducing an ideological aspect to the visualisations which are put forward by Tysiewicz enabled me to see the general cultural problems and to understand the interpretation of aesthetic values.
