The book is the last volume of an extensive four-volume monograph devoted to the work of Cyprian Norwid (1821–1883), one of the most outstanding Polish authors. The impact of Norwid’s oeuvre does not fade, as he addresses fundamental and timeless issues, such as the moral and spiritual condition of man or his place in the world and history, and seeks to answer universal questions. The volume includes articles devoted to the analysis of selected sources and inspirations underlying Norwid’s work, as well as comparative texts tracing the manifestations of the commonality of thoughts and views connecting Norwid with the leading writers and artists of different periods. As a result, we received a multi-faceted image of an artist who, on the one hand, was strongly rooted in the tradition and modernity of Western European culture, and on the other, was characterized by great openness and sensitivity to otherness and cultural diversity.
Agata Brajerska-Mazur conducts research on the translation and works of Cyprian Norwid and other outstanding Polish writers. She works at the Maria Curie University in Lublin, where she teaches translation.
Edyta Chlebowska works in the Centre for the Study of Cyprian Norwid’s Literature at the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin. She has authored articles and books about the artistic creativity of Norwid including his catalogue raisonné.
