"Mądre tautologie"
This article covers a particular form of Wisława Szymborska conceptism, her Thought fugues, which turns the world’s elements upside down and deconstructs them, uncovering their antinomies. The described reality takes the form of a concatenation, it is elliptic, based on seemingly symmetric tessellations, but in essence triggers some logic turns. It is possible to discern a similarity with advertising rhetoric and its constant variations of sense based on oppositions, such as double meaning, antiphrasis, paradox, or tautology. In all of which Szymborska is able to notice the condensing of meaning, or even some oxymoronic properties. It is perhaps this reason why her poetry is accessible to such a wide audience across the world. Though frequently condemned by 20th-century thinkers as a mere pleonasm, tautology becomes for the poetess a fluid material useful for her dialectics of imagination. Szymborska does not see language as a mirror of the world, but rather as an act of creating new worlds and new forms of life, like Wittgenstein did in his theory of language games. This is why she prefers such word games more than other poets. Due to their dual nature, tautologies constitute a potential and permanent element of Szymborska’s conceptual games
Interpretacja (z brulionem w tle). O czytaniu wiersza Dwaj prorocy. Próba głosu
The article regards the late Zbigniew Herbert’s poem entitled Dwaj prorocy. Próba głosu (The Two Prophets. The Attempt of the Voice). The author tries to prove that this poem resists interpretations seeking to create a clear and coherent analysis of its meaning. The article also focuses on a theoretical question: Can the draft of a poem prove useful in interpreting the finished and published literary work? The article was produced as part of the grant program entitled “The Zbigniew Herbert Archive – studies on documenting the creative writing process”
