The aim of this article is to discuss Mirosław Loba’s book titled Wokół narracyjnego zwrotu. Szkice krytyczne [Around the Narrative Turn: Critical Essays]. The book is a reconstruction of the main trends in contemporary French thought on narrative (the psychoanalytic approach and Paul Ricoeur’s concept are particularly emphasized). Loba’s theoretical perspective is complemented by analytical attempts – the researcher interprets Andrea Camilleri’s and Donna Leon’s criminal novels and he also proposes one of the most interesting Polish interpretations of Jonathan Little’s The Kindly Ones.

The goal of the article is to discuss the latest book of Magdalena Siwiec, entitled Romantyczne koncepcje poezji. Poeta i Muza – relacja w stanie kryzysu (Alfred de Musset i Juliusz Słowacki) [Romantic concepts of poetry. The poet and the Muse – a relation in crisis (Alfred de Musset and Juliusz Słowacki)]. The book has a comparative approach and consists of two parts. In the first, theoretical part, the author poses questions about the logic of development of Romanticism in Poland and France, about Romantic generations, contemporary theories of poetry and the crisis that affected the age. Against this historically determined background, the author presents the changes in the topics of the Muses. In the second part, where an analytical approach dominates, Magdalena Siwiec presents various facets of the topos in Musset’s and Słowacki’s works. Both parts correspond perfectly with each other. The Cracovian critic demonstrates again her interpretative talent and introduces an excellent example of an academic synthesis of the Romanticism, both in Poland and France.

The aim of the article is to analyze the experience of solitude in Memoirs of aMadman (1838), one of the youthful works of Gustave Flaubert, where autobiographical and fictional elements are interspersed. The narrator of Memoirs… is a loner in a threefoldsense: social (it is a result of reluctance and even hatred towards society and a consequence of misanthropy and romantic elitism), metaphysical (a man in Memoirs… seemsto be abandoned, vainly seeking rest in God or in any au-delà) and existential (Memoirs… are written by someone who is empty, burned out, unable to creatively engage in life; he is a stranger to himself). The typology seems to be an obvious affirmation of romantic phenomenon.But Flaubert’s youthful work is not imitative: the experience of loneliness has been subjected to a process of disillusion that ruins the romantic myths

From the beginning of his literary career, Thomas Gray consciously and consistently created a lyric with a poetic effect quite of its own in which a personal element (death of a friend) kept on vanishing, toposes and literary allusions overlapped (e.g. images of melancholy inspired by works of John Milton and Thomas Warton) and in which bitter philosophical reflection on life and death mounted in time. It is this reflection that predestined the groundbreaking character of Elegy written in a country churchyard and determined its popularity in English literature and beyond. The interpretation of space, the reflection on the subjectivity and the role of the epitaph (constituting at the same time a structural part of Elegy..., as well as the funeral genre that is thematically related to the Gray’s poem) have made it possible to show the poem written in mid-eighteenth century as a substantial reference point for Romantic authors transforming the genre.
