Skrzywdzony poemat. O książce Jerzego Winiarskiego „Wokół „Wojny chocimskiej” Ignacego Krasickiego. Dyskursy możliwe tekstów kultury”

The article is a historical and literary reflection on Ignacy Krasicki’s book Around Chocim’s War (“Wojny chocimskiej”). The possible discourses of Jerzy Winiarski’s cultural writings, are the first monographic attempt to explain the complexities of interpretation and reception of the underestimated poem XBW. Some possible reasons for this work’s omission by writers from the circle of “Thursday dinners” were pointed out, even though it was commissioned by King Stanisław August Poniatowski, as well as unjust comments by the critics especially those of the Romantic and 20th century. The cultural contexts of the epic were discussed using a metalinguistic key and the tools of negative poetics.
