„Myśl roślinna” w poezji Jarosława Iwaszkiewicza
“Vegetal thought” in Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz’s poetry

Summary/Abstract: The article’s goal is a critical reading of Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz’s poem in the light of the so-called green philological studies. The research material of the article consists of the poems originating from different eras of the poet’s oeuvre – from the early erotic poems to the late works, especially highlighting the topic of civilisation critique, care for the environment and reflection on interspecies relationships. The theoretical inspirations for the article include the eco-critical ideas described in the works of Aleksandra Ubertowska, Joanna Bednarek and Przemysław Czapliński, as well as the concept of queer ecologies and vegetal turn in humanities. The article presents a thesis that Iwaszkiewicz’s poetry creates a vision of reality, in which humans and non-humans coexist, transcend and co-create. The interpretation – while using the previous findings of researchers exploring the poet’s oeuvre – proposes the focus on the post-anthropocentric, ecological and relational dimension of his poetry.
