The article raises the subject of female motive in Stanisław Grochowiak’s poetry. Female element in the work of the representative of 56 generation is marked positively – in contrast to masculine one. The poet’s high voluating of woman is closely connected with the war escalation in 20th century. According to Grochowiak, it proclaims that civilisation based on patriarchal system sufferd its defeat. The only hope for humanity resugrence is just related to a woman. The author says that she is the host of such values as love and wisedom – and her fertility and protectiveness are opposite to the death. The crisis of European civilisation caused by two world wars has its overtone in philosophic idea of Erich Fromm. He abstracted two tendencies in human’s behaviour: biophilotic - - directed at life and necrophilotic – aimed at death. Fromm similarly to Grochowiak found the reason for the twentieth-century hecatomb in human nature, in this what is typical of man and patriarchal society. Both Grochowiak’s and Fromm’s diagnoses are paralel but at the same time independent, that is why we can say that they are complementary to each other in seeking the explanation for traumatic war events and the hope for human’s future.
