The article presents an interpretation of a poem written by Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz in his old age, titled W kościele (In a Church). The poem was published in 1977 (in the volume Mapa pogody); 25 years later, it was included in an anthology of Iwaszkiewicz’s poetry selected by Czesław Miłosz. The anthology was the final phase of a long-standing dialogue between the two distinguished Polish poets. Aside from selecting texts for the anthology, Miłosz was a translator, and in his old age, he once more took upon himself a duty to comment, to evaluate and — last but not least — to preserve Iwaszkiewicz’s poetry. The poem W kościele is read as a sign of a special new agreement between the Old Masters of Poetry and its inclusion in the anthology titled A Literature Lesson with Czesław Miłosz was an important part of that.

In response to the questionnaire, Professor Janina Abramowska chooses the Bible, and the poetry of Jan Kochanowski and Wislawa Szymborska as the most impor- tant books. She also talks about her passion for journalism and crime stories, as well as the works of Amos Oz as a perfect read on a gray and gloomy day.

King Popiel opens Miłosz’s first poetry book that was published entirely overseas, after the author’s emigration. The book opens a new stage of his artistic career. It records a reflection on the nature of power. Various languages — mythic, magic and scientific - collide in the book. Points of reference include: Slavic mythology, Romantic historiosophy and the twentieth-century idea of progress. None of these ways of seeing is sufficient for a full description of power. Each of them is undermined by irony. This interpretation is also confirmed in Miłosz’s opinions expressed in essays about history of the first half of the 20th century, which the author knew from firsthand experience and in Miłosz’s criticism of Polish messianism and his distanced attitude to scientism. Power, when described in metaphysical categories and as a component of what the poet calls człowieczość [humanness], turns out to be a domain of evil that defies description and understanding.
