The paper deals with the portrayal of bureaucracy in Gehen, ging, gegangen (2015) by Jenny Erpenbeck, a novel that explores the European migrant cri-sis through the eyes of Richard, a recently retired professor of classics, who begins to interview refugees in Berlin. Erpenbeck’s work is a compendium of refugees’ stories, a novel about displaced persons in kafkaesque bureaucratic situations. The author describes two worlds, which ostensibly have nothing to do with each other : that of the widowed classical philologist and the young men from Guinea, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Mali. Their lives and mindscapes are fundamentally different from one anothers. While Richard occupies himself more and more intensely with the refugees by giving help and German les-sons, the reader becomes increasingly familiar with a much bigger problem relating to the fact that these young men are not allowed to work or travel: the German bureaucracy and the legislation of the European Union have damned them to idleness. Without any real prospects, they simply hang around together, sometimes with more and sometimes with less patience.

The article analyses selected male protagonists of literary works of Martin Walser created in the 20th and 21st century, their spiritual, emotional and physical aging and problems of sexual nature, the deepening gap between elderly man and the young generation, or loneliness and lack of understanding connected with aging. The subject of transience, aging, declining vital force, existential dilemmas which accompany the last years of life, has been present in Walser’s works for decades, not only in those created recently the motif of the fear of life, ageing, loss of love and inevitable death, determining the attitudes and actions of the protagonists has been particularly foregrounded.

en Untersuchungsgegenstand bildet das Problem der Altersliebe in ausgewählten Werken von Martin Walser, die im XX. und XXI. Jahrhundert entstanden sind, das in ihnen dargestellte geistige, emotionale und körperliche Altern der männlichen Protagonisten sowie die damit verbundenen Probleme im Bereich der Sexualität, die Kluft zwischen den Senioren und der Jugend, ihre Einsamkeit und Liebessuche. Die Thematik der Vergänglichkeit, des Altseins, der schwindenden Kräfte und existenzieller Probleme, die mit dem fortgeschrittenen Lebensalter einhergehen, ist in vielen Romanen Martin Walsers präsent, doch besonders in den Werken der letzten 15 Jahre tritt das Themenkomplex Liebe und Altern sichtbar in den Vordergrund. Dieses zu beschreiben, ist das Ziel dieser Analyse.
PL
Przedmiotem analizy są wybrane sylwetki męskich bohaterów dzieł Martina Walsera powstałych w XX i XXI wieku, ich starzenie się duchowe, emocjonalne i fizyczne oraz związane z tym procesem problemy natury seksualnej, pogłębiająca się przepaść między seniorami a pokoleniem ludzi młodych czy związana ze starzeniem się samotność i niezrozumienie. Tematyka przemijania, starości, spadających sił witalnych, rozterek egzystencjalnych towarzyszących schyłkowi życia obecna jest w pisarstwie Walsera od dziesięcioleci, jednak zwłaszcza w utworach napisanych w ostatnich 15 latach motyw determinującego postawy i postępowanie bohaterów lęku przed starością, utratą miłości i nieuchronną śmiercią eksponowany jest w sposób szczególny. Celem pracy jest analiza zjawiska starości i miłości w wieku dojrzałym ukazana w owych utworach.

The paper deals with the broad concept of strangeness in the literary work of Anna Mitgutsch, a contemporary Austrian writer. The topic of strangeness is a keynote in her rich literary output. Mitgutsch’s experience of being abroad (travelling to the Middle East and south-east Asia, living and working in Israel, England, Korea and The USA) is reflected in such novels as Das andere Gesicht, In fremden Städten or Abschied von Jerusalem. Her characters are nomads, people looking for identity and homeland, trying to escape alienation. The feeling of being a stranger is also present in their relations with their loved ones (Die Annäherung).

The article is devoted to the literary representation of the wolf, and the texts analysed include Hermann Hesse’s Steppenwolf and Mark Rowlands’ The Philosopher and the Wolf. In both texts the wolf becomes the mirror in which the man’s inner life is reflected, and the authors search for the answers to existential questions in the wolfish nature. “And so, the Steppenwolf had two natures, a human and a wolfish one. This was his fate, and it may well be that it was not a very exceptional one.” Those words of Hermann Hesse refer to the complicated, split personality of the main protagonist and the complex nature of every man. Harry is partly a man, who desires social respect and the comforts of the middle-class life, and shares human ideas and interests, and partly a wild beast, who mocks these vain and absurd desires, and remains untamed and impulsive. Mark Rowlands’ wolf is not only part of the author’s inner self, but a wild animal, with which the American philosopher spent 11 years of his life. The wolf companion changes completely the man’s way of thinking, becoming an inspiration for philosophical considerations over the nature of love, death, happiness and humanity, the purposefulness of human actions, the sources of despair and hope, the nature of the fear of death. The wolf’s company makes it possible for Rowlands to find his human nature, makes him eventually become a different person: of partly human and partly wolfish nature. In both cases the wolf (being either part of a man’s personality or a real wild companion) determines the protagonists’ lives and helps them understand themselves.

Old age, an inevitable outcome of the process of aging, in which biological, mental and social changes lead to biological and mental imbalance, has been present as a subject in literature since the very beginning, and we can find both male and female elderly protagonists, with the changes observable in their final stages of lives. The article analyses selected protagonists of literary works of Martin Walser created in the 20th century, their spiritual, emotional and physical aging, problems of sexual nature, the deepening gap between elderly women or man and the young generation, or loneliness and lack of understanding connected with aging. The subject of transience, aging, declining vital force, existential dilemmas which accompany the last years of life, has been present in Walser’s works for decades, not only in those created recently the motif of the fear of life, the truth, ageing, loss and inevitable death, determining the attitudes and actions of the protagonists has been particularly foregrounded. The early works “A Runaway Horse” and “Breakers” provide material for analysis herein.

Den Untersuchungsgegenstand bildet das Bild des Zweiten Weltkriegs in "Abschied von Jerusalem" von Anna Mitgutsch, einer spannenden Geschichte über Leidenschaft, Vertrauen und Verrat, einem sehr aktuellen Roman sowohl über das faszinierende und multikulturelle Jerusalem als auch über private und politische Beziehungen zwischen Israelis und Palästinensern. Im Zentrum der Erzählung steht die Figur einer jungen Österreicherin, die auf der Suche nach einer verlorenen Verwandten und ihren eigenen jüdischen Wurzeln nach Israel auswandert. Der Artikel analysiert die allgemeine Einstellung zur jüdischen Herkunft sowie das Problem der Erinnerung an vergangene Ereignisse, insbesondere an das Drama des Zweiten Weltkriegs. In ihrem Roman verknüpft die Autorin die Familiengeschichte mit der Geschichte des ganzen Landes, sie verweist auf die Frage des kulturellen und kollektiven Gedächtnisses und insbesondere auf die spezifisch österreichische Erinnerung an die Ereignisse des Holocaust sowie die langjährige Tendenz, die Beteiligung der Österreicher an diesem Kriegsverbrechen zu negieren bzw. ihre Schuld zu vermindern.

The article is devoted to the image of the Second World War in "Lover, Traitor: A Jerusalem Story" ("Abschied von Jerusalem") by Anna Mitgutsch, a suspenseful story of passion, trust and betrayal, a timely novel about Jerusalem, a fascinating multicultural city, but also about intimate and political relations between Israelis and Palestinians. Mitgutsch’s story centers around a young Austrian woman who goes to Israel to find a lost relative and her own Jewish identity. The article discusses the attitude to Jewish roots and the problem of remembering of past events, especially memories of The Second World War. In her novel the author combines family history with the history of the country, refers to the issue of cultural and collective memory, and especially to the specific Austrian memory of the events of the Holocaust and the long-standing tendency to diminish the guilt and to negate the participation of Austrians in war crime.
PL
Artykuł poświęcony jest obrazowi drugiej wojny światowej w "Abschied von Jerusalem" Anny Mitgutsch, trzymającej w napięciu opowieści o namiętności, zaufaniu i zdradzie, wciąż aktualnej powieści o fascynującej i multikulturowej Jerozolimie, ale także o prywatnych i politycznych relacjach między Izraelczykami i Palestyńczykami. W centrum utworu znajduje się postać młodej Austriaczki, która podąża do Izraela w poszukiwaniu zaginionej krewnej i własnych żydowskich korzeni. Artykuł analizuje powszechny stosunek do żydowskiego pochodzenia, jak również problem pamięci o przeszłych wydarzeniach, zwłaszcza o dramacie drugiej wojny światowej. W swej powieści autorka łączy bowiem historię rodzinną z historią kraju, nawiązuje do zagadnienia pamięci kulturowej i zbiorowej, a zwłaszcza do specyficznej austriackiej pamięci o wydarzeniach Holocaustu i wieloletniej tendencji do umniejszania winy oraz negowania udziału Austriaków w zbrodniach wojennych.

The article is devoted to the motif of a lie in selected works by German-language writers, and the texts analysed include Friedrich Dürenmatt’s Der Blinde, Stefan Zweig’s Die unsichtbare Sammlung and Jurek Becker’s Jakob der Lügner. A lie as an element used in literature has different representations: frauds, intrigues, betrayals and purposeful deceptions are accompanied by lies invoked by fear or necessity, and what matters in evaluation of the behaviour of the protagonists that lie are the reasons and motives of their decisions. The anal-ysis included is focused on a merciful lie, a lie caused by pity, which determines significantly the course of action and the protagonists’ lives, saves their health or even life; a lie that results from good and love for other people.

The article is devoted to Juli Zeh’s novel Unterleuten, which explores what happens in a small village outside of Berlin, when an energy company arrives with plans to develop a wind farm. Brutality surfaces in many forms, from harassment and deliberate cruelty to perverse acts of revenge. Two old men, a successful agribusiness man and a displaced comrade from the former GDR farming collective, reengage in past conflicts, and their twenty-year-long feud grows into a prime source of vicious ill feeling. The structure of the novel is like a literary kaleidoscope: Unterleuten is a place between past and present, east and west, city and province, civilisation and tradition, reality and fiction, true and false, winners and losers.
