Spory o przenośnię w dwudziestoleciu międzywojennym, Wydawnictwo Poznańskiego Towarzystwa Przyjaciół Nauk, Poznań 2024, ISBN 978-83-7654-597-4 (Polemika Krytycznoliteracka w Polsce, pod redakcją Sylwii Panek, tom 38), ss. 498.978-83-7654-597-4https://hdl.handle.net/10593/27850The volume is devoted to the polemic over metaphor that continued to weave its way in the interwar period and deals with one of the most important phenomena in the historical poetics of the period. Peiper’s theses, making metaphor not only the most important trope in the linguistic sense, but also the key epistemological signpost of modern consciousness, were raised, transformed, developed and rejected by advocates of all the important literary currents and generations of the era. Taking part were both champions of the First Avant-Garde and the Second Avant-Garde, opponents and supporters of obstructed speech, aficionados of poetic imagination and critics of poetry’s autonomy. In formulating judgments on metaphor, poets and critics answered key questions on what the social role of literature is, how literature should be written and what literature actually is or should be. Commentaries by Irzykowski, Peiper, Przyboś, Brzękowski, Kurek, Kuncewiczowa, Krzywicka, Miłosz, Herling-Grudziński and others formed a polyphonic dialogue. They also often sowed the seed of regular polemics, carried out in the pages of magazines such as Zwrotnica, Linia, Wiadomości Literackie, Droga, Gazeta Artystów, Pion and Orka na Ugorze. Without a knowledge of these texts, it is impossible to responsibly find one’s way today in the maze of innovative poetics that the interwar period represented.plinfo:eu-repo/semantics/book
