The article examines the presence of the figures and oeuvre of representatives of the 1956 generation in contemporary literature. The author analyses both poetry and prose devoted to the biographies and works of writers of the 1956 generation. The analysed poems can be divided into four groups: pieces written by representatives of the 1956 generation for each other, poems for friends of their authors written in the 1950s and later, poems inspired by the works of the 1956 generation, as well as poems devoted to the oeuvre and memory of the “stuntmen of literature.” In addition to poetry, the author analyses prose works written in the 1950s and after the breakthrough of 1989, works referring to writers of the 1956 generation. The literary works in question are analysed in the context of references to the literary output of the 1956 generation, the presence of these writers in popular culture as well as efforts to consolidate or create the legends of the various authors. The aim of the article is to demonstrate the constant presence of the 1956 generation in contemporary Polish literature.
