Różewicz about himself as someone else
Abstract
It seems that Tadeusz Różewicz’s poem titled Francis Bacon or Diego Velazquez in a Dentist’s
Chair is dedicated to the works of the author of Studies of Crucifixion. In fact, Różewicz writes
about the impression that Bacon’s art left on him when he saw it in galleries and museums. This
poem is also about fascination. Contrary to what may seem intuitive, it is not an attempt to describe
the poet’s own way of interpreting these works; and even if so, this is only true to a limited
extent. For Różewicz, Bacon’s works were just a pretext to look at himself, especially at his own
early poems, from a distance – from a somewhat ironic distance. In this way the poet is able to
present himself as “the other”, thus referring to the title of Paul Ricoeur’s book.
