[„I will focus on the monstrosity of phenomena”]. On the poetic imagination of Maria Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska. This article examines a selection of Maria Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska’s poems inspired by the Baroque imagination. In her last volume of poetry published by the interwar poet before the Second World War (Szkicownik poetycki) she pays tribute to the late Baroque poet, Józef Baka. Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska analyses the imagery, mood and language of his work, which encourages the reader to look at the sources of her poetic outlook. From the very beginning of her poetic development, Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska was fascinated by the natural world, both its beauty and ugliness, the latter involving the processes of decay, decomposition and death in their various forms. The analysed poems show a sense of the duality of the world, awe, and absurdity of existence, reflect in the complexity of all phenomena. This attitude is built on the base of the original poetic technique of Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska, and at the same time demonstrates associations with the Baroque poetry.
