W poszukiwaniu nowego spojrzenia : proza Stanisławy Przybyszewskiej między awangardą a modernizmem wernakularnym

Abstract

MONIKA ŚWIERKOSZ Jagiellonian University, Cracow IN SEARCH OF A NEW VIEW STANISŁAWA PRZYBYSZEWSKA’S PROSE BETWEEN AVANT-GARDE AND VERNACULAR MODERNISM The text formulates a question about Stanisława Przybyszewska’s prose interpretive potential in the perspective of vernacular modernism (Miriam Bratu Hansen) and an avant-garde project of “film novel” (Jan Brzękowski). Considering Przybyszewska’s inspirations from both popular cinema (early Hollywood) and avant-garde one (German expressionism and Soviet revolutionary movie) as well as the strategy of “plagiarism” of which she took advantage, the author of the paper underlines the problematic for modernity connection of high and low forms of culture. She also comprehends Przybyszewska’s unfinished prose pieces as avant-garde laboratory of new modes of simultaneous seeing. Ultimately, she questions for a gender aspect of Stanisława Przybyszewska’s narrative quests. 43 A. A r a s z k i e w i c z, Zapomniana rewolucja.
