Antropocen jako przedmiot akademickiego dyskursu staje się jeszcze jednym obiektem antropcentrycznej kategorezy. Narastająca treść teoretyczna nie ma szans wpłynąć zasadniczo na przebudowę myślenia w ...czasie wystarczającym, aby odegrała istotną rolę w przeciwdziałaniu degradacji planety. Czy niejawna samowiedza wzbierającego gwałtownie dyskursu – i jego coraz częstszy fatalizm – tę niemożność przewiduje? A może więcej: w istocie pozostaje sceptyczna wobec szans na takie przeciwdziałanie, dekretując niejako katastroficzny scenariusz? Swoje wątpliwości formułuję z perspektywy teoretyczki literatury i komunikacji, a zarazem aktywistki ruchu Extinction Rebellion.
Is the prose poem revolutionary and subversive, or marginal and lyrical? What makes a piece of prose a prose poem? Is its identity vague or precisely defined? Can every poem written in prose be ...considered a prose poem, a form influenced by the brilliant invention of French literature and by authors such as Baudelaire or Rimbaud? Agnieszka Kluba discusses the prose poem by providing a comprehensive summary of the existing approaches to it, but also by proposing an original conception of this form of writing. Kluba does not limit herself to considerations within literary genre theory and remains close to the poetic texts she considers. Following the intricate line of the prose poem, in Polish and European literature, she carefully assigns to prose poetry a place in Modern literary history.
The work focuses on recognising the features of each individual language-centered poetics, referring to different philosophies and aesthetics. For instance "impeaching the language" (the first ...generation of linguistic writers) involves opposite results to the imperative "to protect my own language from fabrication and depravation" (New Wave linguistic poets). The opposition "trustfulness-distrustfulness" does not cover all possible complications within the realm of poetic metareflection. Having different opinions about the effectiveness of their own interventions into language these reflections are located between poetical optimism and pessimism. The latter is highly related to what is called "the crisis of language". The work investigates the role of post-war linguistic poetry in breaking down the conventional optimism of Polish "avant-garde poetic model", not matching up to the European poetry signed with the names of Mallarmé, Klebnikov, George, Celan and the others.
The pope of Polish avant-garde is a main character of a certain persistently recollected critical topos. It claims that, after spending World War I in Europe, Tadeusz Peiper took a basic shape of his ...poetical idea from avant-garde artists he then met. Critics who share this opinion believe that Peiper, aware of these “borrowings”, was developing a carefully planned strategy in order to conceal those external sources and to pretend originality. The author of the article disavows these harmful assumptions, reconstructing their possible genesis (rooted in and continued prewar suspicions of plagiarism) and analyzing some of their critical versions. In the same time she presents wider and not only avant-garde background of Peiper’s idea (baroque, gongorism).
Czesław Miłosz accompanied his poetry with an extensive body of self-reflective writings, developed over many years. It is characterised by, on the one hand, a relative constancy of recurring motifs, ...and on the other, an equally constant tendency to juxtapose the motifs in variously defined binary systems. The analysis of connections that occur not so much between the elements of specific antinomies, but, on a higher level, between separate antinomies (especially between values ascribed to poles of the oppositions), makes it possible to notice that many of the antinomies cannot be subjected to easy reconciliations, but rather exclude each other. This makes it possible to understand why Miłosz’s thought seems to be systematic. Above all, however, it allows us to look, in a new way, at the feats of Miłosz’s constant struggle against poetic form – immanent contradictions and inconsistencies of Miłosz’s reflection become interesting only when they are referred to the order of creation and its disturbing metamorphoses.

Czesław Miłosz accompanied his poetry with an extensive body of self-reflective writings, developed over many years. It is characterised by, on the one hand, a relative constancy of recurring motifs, ...and on the other, an equally constant tendency to juxtapose the motifs in variously defined binary systems. The analysis of connections that occur not so much between the elements of specific antinomies, but, on a higher level, between separate antinomies (especially between values ascribed to poles of the oppositions), makes it possible to notice that many of the antinomies cannot be subjected to easy reconciliations, but rather exclude each other.

The article contains an interpretation of Tadeusz Gajcy’s poem The Scanty Vision. The poem shows the way the poet modifies the earlier forms of writing, noticing how insufficient they are under the ...conditions imposed by the war. The poem begins with a sophisticated image, but at the end it is reduced to an elementary confession of the will to act. This aesthetic redefinition would not be possible without a meta-literary self-reflection, without the need to escape convention, and the will to abandon subjectivity for the sake of struggle, even at the price of death – as a gift to the descendents.
The article discusses the prose poem in literary genetics perspective. The author begins with a presentation of research state on the hybrid "last genre." Though traditionally regarded as elusive, ...the prose poem continues to puzzle scholars. Instead of making another attempt to put it into the framework of traditional literary genetics, the author refers to the idea of hermeneutic space in which architextual characteristics proves to be more important than paradigmatic of forms. In prose poem, one of such architextual feature is multitude of genres, allowing not only the various literary conventions (lyrical or parody-satirical monologue, short story, symbolic poem, dramatic scene) become real, but also different kinds of speech genres. Openness for modalities previously excluded from poetry seems to be more important than prose poetization, the latter being characteristic of a number of poetical prose varieties.
