Abstract
The dissertation presents a preliminary analysis of Pawel Ksawery Brzostowski’s Rozmyślanie na wsi w Turgielach – a work that has so far escaped the attention of researchers. It attempts to demonstrate that the meditation, rooted in the rhetorical tradition, bears at the same time certain features of the essay, constituting an interesting example of the author’s implementation of a new literary genre, which gained more and more popularity at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. Brzostowski left a rich, albeit not very original literary output. He used various forms of artistic expression. Rozmyślanie na wsi w Turgielach completes his previous achievements. Undertaking of a new challenge indicates the attitude of openness on the part of the writer, the readiness to experiment in the field of form and the willingness to broaden the limits of speech. It is also important for better understanding of the history of the essay in relation to Polish literature. Dans l’article, l’auteur analyse préliminairement le petit ouvrage de Paweł Ksawery Brzostowski Rozmyślanie na wsi w Turgielach qui jusqu’à présent ne suscitait pas d’intérêt des chercheurs. Il démontre que Rozmyślanie ayant sa source dans la tradition rhétorique comporte aussi certains traits de l’énoncé essayiste et reste un exemple intéressant de la réalisation du nouveau genre littéraire de plus en plus populaire à la charnière des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles. La création littéraire de Brzostowski est riche mais très peu originale. Il profitait de différentes formes de l’expression artistique. Rozmyślanie na wsi w Turgielach complète ses réalisations précédentes. Le choix de ce nouveau défi démontre une ouverte attitude de l’écrivain, sa disposition aux expériences formelles et sa volonté d’agrandissement des limites de l’énoncé. Le texte est aussi important pour une meilleure compréhension de l’histoire de l’essai dans la littérature polonaise.
