• Languages of publication: PL

Abstracts

EN

The title of Kajetan JaksaMarcinkowski’s work indicates that Rzeki polskie is a descriptive poem, in which the lecture on Polish history is delivered. But as it turns out, both the composition and content of Rzeki polskie are complicated. The narrative is quite chaotic. The poet is posed as a wandering bard, listening to the voice of native soil and singing about history and legends. Marcinkowski’s poem can be interpreted as a poetic search for the sources of nationality. Collective history as well as the beliefs of the nation are as if charmed into the soil.
