Poetycki dziennik intymny Jacka Podsiadły

Abstract

The article deals with the poetry by Jacek Podsiadło, one of the best poets of the so called “'Brulion' generation”. The author makes an attempt at determining the degree in which Podsiadlo’s poems form an intimate poetic diary, and she asks the question of whether his poetry is approximate to the category of biography writing and what the relation of the poet himself towards the lyrical author is. The considerations lead to the conclusion that Podsiadlo’s poetry is a “total invention”, and the poet becomes merely a “model” of the lyrical subject and poetic protagonist.
