This book presents a collection of essays discussing a history of the five myths of Dionysus, Narcissus, Prometheus, Marcolf, and Labyrinth in twentieth-century literature. The author traces their transformations against the wider backdrop of Polish and European literature. The book is an excellent, thought-provoking lesson in understanding the signs of contemporary culture and a fascinating journey through its complex trails.
Michał Głowiński is Professor of Polish Literature at the Polish Academy of Sciences. He has authored numerous books and essays devoted to contemporary literature, literary criticism, and the history of propaganda in the twentieth-century Communist regime in Poland.
