Book Contemporary Writers of Poland

Download or read book Contemporary Writers of Poland written by Danuta Blaszak and published by Dorota Silaj Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Writers Of Poland Approximately 1980-2000 second edition Cover design: Agnieszka Herman Consultant: Dorota Silaj About Polish literature Danuta Blaszak Introduction The anthology, both: the first edition and this edition, contains samples of poems and a few pieces of prose of writers of Poland. I present the writers who published significant things before 2000, who debuted while Russian communism failed and the Poland's borders became open, or much earlier. The first edition was a static picture of Poland. It was a picture taken at the time when the borders of Poland opened. Feedback to the first edition, some comments of historians and critics, greatly impacted the new edition. I added some reviews here, as an example of this feedback. I've been trying to put together the pieces of Polish literature, to find the dynamic picture, reasons, influences, main currents. I've been trying to find a dynamic picture of Polish literature. While I was working on the first edition, I felt many logic paths were broken. The feedback to the first edition allowed me to understand the reasons. The history of Polish literature was highly impacted by communistic manipulation and censure. Some names and facts were not to be mentioned. Some facts were to be mentioned in an intentionally false way. Communism strongly promoted some writers. The procedure of these choices was mysterious. A few good writers got their chance - for example: Wislawa Szymborska. Later - after the borders became open - the picture of Polish literature was highly biased by some new groups that tried to grab aggressively the vacant seats of the Solidarity government. History should be continuous. So it's good to mentionabout the history of Poland right after the ww2. The first independent Polish magazine appeared in 1956 - after Stalin's death. Most great writers of that time, and many years later, were connected with that magazine. It influenced Polish literature as brave, and later - really independent. I am glad that I may add to the Anthology an interview with Leszek Szymanski (known also as Leslie Shyman), the first editor of the first independent newspaper. I'm proud of having in the Anthology an article by Leszek Zulinski about the literature of 1980s. I add also a short article by Brudnicki about sense of humor that is characteristic for Polish literature as the meanings between lines. I add also my article about International Poetry Days in 2007 - the point that the literature of Poland achieved in 2007. Danuta Blaszak

Book Polish Literature as World Literature

Download or read book Polish Literature as World Literature written by Piotr Florczyk and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-12-15 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully curated collection consists of 16 chapters by leading Polish and world literature scholars from the United States, Canada, Italy, and, of course, Poland. An historical approach gives readers a panoramic view of Polish authors and their explicit or implicit contributions to world literature. Indeed, the volume shows how Polish authors, from Jan Kochanowski in the 16th century to the 2018 Nobel laureate Olga Tokarczuk, have engaged with their foreign counterparts and other traditions, active participants in the global literary network and the conversations of their day. The volume features views of Polish literature and culture within theories of world literature and literary systems, with a particular attention paid to the resurgence of the idea of the physical book as a cultural artifact. This perspective is especially important since so much of today's global literary output stems from Anglophone perceptions of what constitutes literary quality and tastes. The collection also sheds light on specific issues pertaining to Poland, such as the idea of Polishness, and global phenomena, including social and economic advancement as well as ecological degradation. Some of the authors discussed, like the Romantic poet Adam Mickiewicz or the 1980 Nobel laureate Czeslaw Milosz, were renowned far beyond the borders of their country, while others, like the contemporary travel writer and novelist Andrzej Stasiuk, embrace regionalism, seeing as they do in their immediate surroundings a synecdoche of the world at large. Nevertheless, the picture of Polish literature and Polish authors that emerges from these articles is that of a diverse, cosmopolitan cohort engaged in a mutually rewarding relationship with what the late French critic Pascale Casanova has called “the world republic of letters.”

Book Contemporary Writers of Poland

Download or read book Contemporary Writers of Poland written by Baszak Danuta and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2005-09 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poland is the country that defeated communism. Poles love freedom and very special strong individualism is typical of them. The Anthology is thus a wide presentation of contemporary writers of Poland - a generation after two recent Nobel Prize winners with Polish backgrounds Milosz and Szymborska. The Anthology consists of two parts: poetry and a few short stories. Poems seem to be more popular in Poland. The second part is rather complementary than a separate presentation of the country. The poems in the Anthology contain an explicit message for readers. They are not only a linguistic game even with professional linguistic attributes. The poems and the short stories are not a linguistic joke -- so one can get the message. Pope John Paul II was from Poland -- he was a poet and he is presented in the Anthology. Some ...
