„Ja, Ahaswer”. Motyw tułaczki, podróży, pielgrzymowania w trylogii Piotra Bednarskiego „Błękitne śniegi i inne rejsy po złote runo”
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2018) Wal, Anna
This article focuses on the topos of Ahaswer (The Wandering Jew) in Piotr Bednarski’s trilogy „Błękitne śniegi i inne rejsy po złote runo”. The creation of the main character of the series is analysed in the light of the author using the already established scenario provided by culture in the form of a legend of Ahaswer. Bednarski chooses the figure of the Wandering Jew as the one which most aptly reflects the life situation of the protagonist-narrator of the trilogy. The author emphasises chiefly two aspects of the meaning of the discussed motif in culture. The character of Ashwer is used as synonymous to Jewishness and as a universal representation of the lot of a wanderer.
Krzysztof Czyżewski a paryska „Kultura”
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2019) Wal, Anna
The paper focuses on the various forms of collaboration of Krzysztof Czyżewski, the founder of the Borderland Foundation in Sejny, organiser of cultural events, poet and essayist, with Parisian Kultura. It discusses Czyżewski’s essays, published in the magazine between 1997-2000 which concerned the problems of Central and Eastern Europe and the issues connected with the borderland. The paper points to the idea, emphasized by Czyżewski, of multicultural dialogue and building open societies in the multicultural regions of Central and Eastern Europe after 1989 based on historical memory while at the same time overcoming the existing conflicts. It mentions the prizes awarded to Czyżewski by Jerzy Giedroyc and the fact that he is considered the continuator of the program of Kultura, promoting the strengthening of the bonds between Poland and its closest neighbours.
W służbie idei - "Tu jest Polska" Herminii Naglerowej
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2011) Wal, Anna
The article discusses the drama by Herminia Naglerowa entitled "Tu jest Polska". The author of the article is concerned with extraordinary circumstances of origin of the text that was written between 1942 and 1943, that is during the ongoing Second World War, soon after the writer left gulag and joined the Women's Auxiliary Service in the army commanded by Gen. Władysław Anders. Although the article proposes an interpretation of the drama mainly as a literary text, additional supportive information used is related to the performance of "Tu jest Polska" by the Drama Theatre of Polish Army in the East. The article stresses biased and propaganda character of the play that results from both political and ideological implications and from the fact that it addressed an audience consisting of soldiers of the Polish II Corps: usually ex-prisoners and former laborers of gulags. The play by Naglerowa can be classified as a representative of the emigration drama mainstream described by Dobrochna Ratajczakowa as ‘servient’. The topics of conspiracy and uprising that can be found in the play are considered a continuation of the tradition of Polish Romanticism in which any fight for independence and civil service receive the top priority. The author of the article focuses her attention on these passages of the play that discuss problems developed also in several further works by Naglerowa and related to the subject matter of war. Among these problems one should mention the motif of heroism contrasted with romantic models as well as the subject of women’s way of experiencing history.
World War I and “the good old Austrian times” in a novel by Roman Turek W służbie najjaśniejszego pana [In His Majesty’s service]
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2023-12-28) Wal, Anna
This article is dedicated to the writings of Roman Turek, an author almost forgotten in the present times. In his autobiographical writing he recalls his childhood and youth, spent in his home village Wola Dalsza, situated in the territory of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and his army experience from First World War. The article deals with Galician motifs in Turek’s W służbie najjaśniejszego pana [In His Majesty’s service], especially the image of the Great War from a perspective of a resident of Wola Dalsza, a village near Łańcut, as well as a private in the Austro-Hungarian army. Special attention was given to special features of Roman Turek’s writing, creation of his characters, presence of humour and irony, which made the critics draw analogies with the books by Jaroslav Hašek and the literary character he created, i.e. Josef Švejk.
