[Miłosz i Mickiewicz : poezja wobec tradycji]
ENIn her book Miłosz and Mickiewicz (Miłosz i Mickiewicz), Lidia Banowska reveals the poetic roles Czesław Miłosz assumes when he refers in his poetry to Mickiewicz’s tradition. The roles include a poet-prophet vision and a prophetic conception of poetry in Miłosz’s prewar literary creativity, the emergence of ironic elements in pieces composed during WWII, the motif of attachment to the land of childhood observed in those produced on emigration, and finally - religious themes. Proving the exposition of Miłosz’s consistent links with Mickiewicz’s poetry and biography and attributing a metaphisical sense to them, Banowska discerns a common ground of their writings visible in, inter alia, their religious interests, their attitude to acceptation of the being in all its forms, and in their belief into the reality of poetic call.
