Próba demitologizacji. O Jak zostałem pisarzem Andrzeja Stasiuka
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2024) Hanik, Katarzyna
The aim of this article is to show that the strategy of demythologizing one’s own experiences applied by Stasiuk in his autobiography entitled Jak zostałem pisarzem constitutes a ‘play on taboos’. To this end, the author analyses the narrative strategies manifested within the writer’s autobiographical statements, especially those that trivialize and demythologize events that were constituting a kind of ‘generational experience’ for Stasiuk’s generation. Such a strategy of portraying oneself proves to be a kind of ‘play on taboos’, which in this case can be defined as a certain imperative of portraying ‘the experience of basic military service’ and ‘the experience of underground activity’ in People's Republic of Poland.
Rozdźwięki i współbrzmienia, czyli o naturze i kulturze w prozie Andrzeja Stasiuka
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2017) Setlak, Wiesław
Andrzej Stasiuk as an author of „travel” prose is equally strongly immersed in nature and culture. His narration is dominated by descriptions of nature. Man drawing both from nature and culture is important in his works. Stasiuk, an artist inevitably entangled in culture, sees an opportunity for self-fulfillment in nature understood as a more general notion than just natural environment. However, he does not pursue the „state of nature” – inculturation does not allow him to do it. Thus, he seeks a compromise consisting in „being” in „culture” while staying close to nature. The author’s quest resemble the struggle of a nomad roaming some geographical space for a purpose. The same thing happens when the writer tries to find a place for himself in the megaspace of nature and culture using the power of the mind and imagination. This type of activity is by geopoetics attributed to a socalled nomadological subject. It seems that the main thesis of Stasiuk’s literary anthropology is a conviction that man lives on the border of nature and culture where his existence can be authentic despite certain antagonisms. In other words, consona is possible despite dissonance. It is all about proportion. Andrzej Stasiuk in his prose seems to be close to defining this very state of affairs.
