The critic was thus accompanied from the outset by the following questions: is lyric poetry a gift?; does poetry divide us, or do we divide it among ourselves?; is a proper name (idiom) truly proper, or rather given, and thus common?; and finally: what does it mean to give and receive a poem? Skurtys’s third book is an attempt at benevolent hermeneutics, collecting and describing subsequent encounters with the poetry of “Dyć,” but it would also not exist without the participation of the author of these lyrics – without his generous gestures and watchful eye, and without the works gifted to us, which ultimately formed a wafer-sharing anthology of twelve “communion poems.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublishers:\u003cbr\u003eTymoteusz Karpowicz Foundation for Culture and Education\u003cbr\u003eISBN: 978-83-956730-6-1\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWrocław University Press\u003cbr\u003eISBN: 978-83-229-3804-1\u003cbr\u003eCategory: literary criticism \/ poetry\u003cbr\u003eNumber of pages: 214\u003cbr\u003eWrocław, 2022\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe publishing partner for the book is the Wrocław Institute of Culture as part of the Wrocław Publishing Program.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"tajnekomplety","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53536122110290,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/8609\/9794\/files\/Darczynca.RzeczopoezjiEugeniuszaTkaczyszyna-Dyckiego.jpg?v=1779476356"},{"product_id":"dno-cekina","title":"Sequin bottom","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(192, 67, 42);\"\u003eEwa Jarocka\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Dno cekina” (The Bottom of a Sequin), published by the Tymoteusz Karpowicz Foundation, is the second poetry collection by Ewa Jarocka, a Wrocław-based poet considered a poetic discovery of 2016. The book comprises forty-nine poems, written in a new, more classical poetic style for the author. The reader’s role is also much more active, placed in various situations and encouraged to react, primarily ethically. The poems largely draw on the difficulties and dilemmas faced by their author, but they lead to an attempt to objectively describe contemporary times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe persona, or rather personas, speaking in these poems, captivate with a fresh voice in Polish poetry, not attempting to imitate any established poets, full of charm, surprising the reader with something incredibly direct. The range of emotions served to the reader here is very broad, even striking. The juxtaposition of the author's personal problems with the great problems of the contemporary world in such a direct and surprising way gives the reader the impression of opening a window in an already somewhat stale poetic world. Pedophilia, homelessness, armed conflicts appear here in new contexts. The reader is sometimes even forced to actively try to disintegrate their own way of seeing reality. And they must even \"re-process\" - for their own use - moral and aesthetic dilemmas, including the categories of \"good\" and \"evil.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Dno cekina” is a book in which we once again have to confront ourselves. And that is probably its greatest value. Ewa Jarocka - well, she was born. She lives, works and writes. Sometimes she draws. Also poems. Usually about misfortunes. In the volume titled \"Dno cekina\", however, she happens to be happy. Perhaps she just forgets herself. A year has passed since her debut. That's why she is afraid that something bad will come of it. Although in her new poems she doesn't rhyme and, according to her first readers, they are better than those from the volume about bad people, she knows how it is with this wretched human. There are no good people. And especially critics. Everyone is hideous, worse than death. Not necessarily because Ewa fears closeness. After all, she doesn't always send signals: Do not approach. I bite. Screw you. Ewa can also be nice. Especially to publishers. She is grateful, lets herself be petted, reveals her secrets to them. That \"Dno cekina\" is something impossible, she would gladly dedicate her poems to it, but that has already happened. That \"Dno cekina\" is also an attempt to see depth in what is flat, although she only overheard that and repeats it. And although her publishers know this, but don't admit it because they are nice - that no poetess (and even less so a male poet) before her revealed her bra size in poems. But she is far from a 75Z! Ewa doesn't plan to talk about the latter with strangers. Not even with those who won't refrain from malicious comments in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo \"Dno cekina\" is her return. It's the second volume with which she'd like everything, and above all, for her need for memory to be respected. Also for what is small and funny, like a dream about a rabbit. Like her passion for looking at herself in the mirror and suspecting priests of the worst. It's just her way that sometimes paranoid thinking kicks in. She thinks now that strangers will accuse her of having given her freedom to the devil, not to poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"tajnekomplety","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53536126075218,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/8609\/9794\/files\/Dnocekina.jpg?v=1779476475"},{"product_id":"hop-hop-hop-traktat-o-samotnosci","title":"Hop!

It detaches poetry from the discourse on politics at a general, communal, diluted level and directs it towards politics in the individual dimension. This debut collection is a record of rage experienced from what is close. The story is familial, love is concrete, absence is embodied. And yet, our present, not just the author's present, is clearly outlined here. For example, abortion ceases to be a tool for political games and becomes what it truly is, moreover, in a transcendent and practical dimension.A great advantage of this debut collection is its language, simple and sometimes even slogan-like, precisely tailored to intention rather than \"beauty\" (whatever that still means). Ewa Jarocka embarked on writing poems in a way we had longed for. The basic category for her is \"sincerity,\" to the bone, to the limits of decency, which gives this book considerable uniqueness.The book was awarded in the 2nd National Tymoteusz Karpowicz Competition for an author's poetry book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEwa Jarocka - she was certainly conceived during the summer of 1979. It is unknown where. Whether in the back seat of a Syrenka car or in a deserted park. She was certainly conceived quickly and in the dark. She was born in 1980 in Wrocław in a hospital on 1st May Square, where all her blood was transfused. Perhaps that is why, at first, she had no literary inclinations. She didn't feel the need to put her thoughts on paper. She was tiny and drew with poop on the walls of her crib. Perhaps this is where her passion, which she later pursued at university, came from. Art. Ewa drew still lifes beautifully. She didn't like nudes. Initially, she was too young for nudes, and when she did try to draw some at university, the model moved, and that annoyed her. Very much. She tore her hair out by the roots! Maybe because she had to draw people at university and didn't want to get annoyed, she rebelled against God and started writing? No! That happened much earlier, somewhere in elementary school! And it was just as improbable as her coming into the world and doctors saving her life. In 1993, she started a diary, the obscene fragments of which she blurred out in 1994 with a pitch-black marker. That's why in 1995 she decided to make up for lost time and start a journal. She wrote about everything in it. About how bad she felt in the world, how poorly she saw everything, that she'd most like to just jump off. Or at least with her guardians and school. However, she didn't realize it was the result of puberty. She didn't understand herself. No one else understood her either, even when she went to high school, which her parents believed should be her happiest time. For them, it was. They didn't work; they could only learn and have fun, have fun and learn. And Ewa had fun too. She drank and smoked everything she could. And in her journals, she even described her first time! That is, the first poem she wrote under a sudden impulse, made up of a verb and a few nouns and a whole flock of... adjectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, her diaries from puberty did not survive; in 2000, before moving to another city, she threw them in the trash. Back then, it was among rotten tomatoes and used sanitary pads, meaning they would be beyond salvage today. She vaguely remembers that her first poem was about a fish that jumped out of an aquarium and helplessly moved its gills. It was suffocating. Dying. And that she always felt like that aquarium fish. Her awakening occurred during her studies. Specifically, in her third year. She drew and drew until she realized that her journals and diaries were something important, most important, that form in art is finite and the idea itself matters. And that ideas are inexhaustible. Hence, in 2003, she turned to what happens exclusively in the imagination. But she had to occupy her hands with something! And she wanted to finish her studies! To accurately express her current thoughts, she wrote in newly established journals, which at that time were not yet in the trash: Only that which is not, is. Perhaps she borrowed this sentence from someone. And she pretended to be a conceptual artist. However, it had little to do with conceptual art, much less other fields of visual arts. But thanks to old drawings and lips like an anteater's, she finished university. This is how her first prose texts came about. From then on, she thought her future lay in epic. Moral tales. Everything concerning everyday life, but not what's out on the street. She didn't care for poetry. She didn't fight it; it just wasn't there for her. There was no Szymborska, no Różewicz. It was like that for a long time, until 2012, at another university, she met a poet whose name she won't reveal, because no. He turned her world upside down. He infected her with a love for poetry! He taught her everything that \"hurts.\" But then she cried so much that she had lost her first poem! In 2014, she decided to make up for the losses again and publish a collection of poems titled \"there are no good people.\" She even managed to publish it. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"tajnekomplety","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53551941910866,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/8609\/9794\/files\/Niemadobrychludzi.jpg?v=1779615214"},{"product_id":"pan-optico","title":"Mr Optico","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\n\n\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(192, 67, 42);\"\u003eAndrzej Niewiadomski\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(192, 67, 42);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoetry \"focused on presenting the world, not on the rapid expression of the poems' protagonist\" - Adam Poprawa aptly sums up Adam Niewiadomski's new volume. \"Mr. Optico.

The book \"Expelled from Paradise,\" published by the Tymoteusz Karpowicz Foundation, presents a selection of the poetic works of these three important British authors, practically unknown in Poland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe translator writes: “What connects these poets? It would be easier to point out the differences. And those are significant. Different worldviews, different languages, different ways of perceiving the world, others, and themselves. Different temperaments: from the somewhat depressive and elegiac melancholy of David Jones, through the nostalgic conservatism of Geoffrey Hill, to the sensual vigilance of Charles Tomlinson. Three incomparable aesthetic positions, three distinct visions of the artist's place and role in the contemporary world. (...) Jones, Hill, and Tomlinson constantly (and each in their own way) grapple with the specters of the past that refuse to be forgotten and haunt them in the form of nostalgia, trauma, historical fiction, or mythology. The perpetual interplay of memory and amnesia, the clash of the feeling of the old world's decay with the uncertainty of the future – perhaps it is precisely these kinds of tensions that make the poetic works of the authors presented here so fascinating.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJacek Gutorow's meticulous translation work is complemented by his exhaustive critical essays, which introduce the work of each of the Polonized authors. Thanks to this, \"Expelled from Paradise\" offers an opportunity to engage with canonical British poetry and provides a solid introduction to the works of three extraordinary classic-outsiders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"tajnekomplety","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53552039067986,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/8609\/9794\/files\/Wygnanizraju.jpg?v=1784624666"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/8609\/9794\/collections\/PanOptico.jpg?v=1785358806","url":"https:\/\/tajnekomplety.pl\/en\/collections\/kolekcja-poetycka.oembed","provider":"tajnekomplety","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
