Iron Horseflies and Human Insects. War “Entomology” of Maria Pawlikowska‑JasnorzewskaThe author of this article is interested in insect motifs appearing above all in Maria Pawlikowska‑Jasnorzewska’s Szkicownik poetycki. The modern war described by the poet shatters the epidermal order of the world; it seems to allow the incomprehensible – that which is not an object yet, such as insects‑planes, but which is not a subject anymore, such as the human changed by the war. The latter – reduced to the role of a trash animal, a stigmatised being – imperceptibly finds himself or herself in the world that he or she is prone to perceive as the world of the insect. Key words: Pawlikowska‑Jasnorzewska, Szkicownik poetycki, insects, modern war, trash animal
