• Title:
  “Closer to Bloodstream”? Bodies Riot in the Poetry of the 1950s and 60s (Kristeva, Poświatowska and Others)
• Creator:
  Kopkiewicz, Aldona
• Description:
  The article presents a constellation of poets who in the 1950s and 1960s of the 20th c. expressed their protest by means of extreme personalization of their poetic voice: an exposure of their – primarily corporeal – intimacy. Their poetry is compared with the theory of Julia Kristeva whose concept of “revolution in poetic language” appeared at the similar time and – similarly – was intended for support of the potentially subversive work of language. As it turns out, strategies for negation encompassed in the poetry of S. Grochowiak, R. Wojaczek, A. Bursa or S. Czycz solidify death drive and trauma and, as a result, negation is not transformed. Such transformation, however, does happen in the poetry of Halina Poświatowska whose creative subjectivity is open to various affects and sensual experiences, which shows itself in her poetic language: metaphorical and vivid. It is such a poetic language, which expresses its aesthetic autonomy in a positive way, that finally opens up the aesthetic emancipatory potential.
