Abstracts

EN

The article is dedicated to the poetry of Jacek Kaczmarski, best known for his protest songs and often referred to as “the bard of Solidarity”. But he is a more versatile artist than he appears to be in the political songs for which he is chiefly recognized. Kaczmarski often featured children in his poetry for adult audience. The figure of the child in his poems can represent different meanings and belongs to different contexts: politics (the dominant one), family life (the source of strong emotions and noble lyricism), and philosophy (the antinomy between youth and old age as an ongoing interaction that connects spontaneity and wisdom).
