THE CZESŁAW MIŁOSZ’S BOTANICAL EPIPHANIESEpiphany belongs to the most common themes of literary criticism concerning Czesław Miłosz’s poetic work. The interpreters accentuate that: 1. the importace of the epiphanical experience lies in the momentary character of it (Marian Stala); 2. the poetry brings us in the epiphany to the religious sublimation (Jan Błoński); 3. the epiphany is a trope of reality, a mark of presence (Ryszard Nycz). In the opinion of Miłosz, epiphany is the way to find God between the things around us. The connection of epiphany and botanic is based on the memories of the poet, who many times has spoken about his fascination for the plants world. Memory – ilumination – epiphany is the typical triad for Miłosz’s poetry. The poetic imagination in epiphanic poems is founded upon clear visualization of details, which offers Miłosz not only a sentimental comeback, but also the sense of the artistic fulfi lment.
