Juliusz Słowacki – dramat człowieka i twórcy odrzuconego
Journal Title: Śląskie Studia Polonistyczne - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The author makes an attempt to show that a drama of rejection, being a frequent phenomenon in biographies of great Romanticists, was also one of the main motifs of Juliusz Słowacki’s writings. He himself was also convinced that he was “structuring drama” with his life. The sphere of Romantic eroticism is largely extended in his biography. A personal drama of a poet-Romantic was completed by his desire of fame rejected by the contemporaries. It even took on the form of a failed battle with Stanisław Ropelewski. The drama of rejection, however, was far from the truth, when reading a description of Słowacki’s writings in a critical article (Kilka słów…), and a private correspondence with Zygmunt Krasiński. L’auteur cherche à démontrer que le drame du rejet, un phénomène fréquent dans les biographies des grands romantiques, aussi était-il un des accents de la production littéraire de Juliusz Słowacki. Il était persuadé lui-même de « composer un drame » avec sa biographie. Le poète y a largement développé le domaine de l’érotique romantique. Le désir de la gloire, rejeté par les contemporains, a complété le drame personnel du poète romantique ; il a même pris la forme d’un duel manqué avec Stanisław Ropelewski. Ce drame du rejet n’était cependant pas véridique ce qui est visible dans l’article critique (Kilka słów…), décrivant sa production littéraire, ainsi que dans sa correspondence privée avec Zygmunt Krasiński.
