Stanisław Barańczak as a critic of language. On two essays from Poetry and Spirit of Generalisation
Abstract
The articles derives from a conviction that the later essays writing of Stanisław Barańczak in one of
its important aspects is a criticism of the morally destructive features of the language. His theory of
poetry as a particular kind of speech – directed to the concrete, multimeaning, always individual –
is a simple consequence of a conviction abot what should be the language in general results from
the deeply ethical objection to the generality, exaggerated abstractness, one-sidedness of an opinion.
Manifestations of such “a laying the language in charge”, to use Barańczak’s own words,
I can be found mostly in his two late essays titled Człowiek, Który Za Dużo Wie [The Man Who
Knows Too Much] and Poezja i duch Uogólnienia [Poetry and the Spirit of Generalisation]. In
their rhetoric I am looking for the supplement of his relation to language.
