„Kordian” Juliusza Słowackiego w świetle inscenizacji teatralnych
"Kordian" by Juliusz Słowacki in the light of theatrical productions

Summary/Abstract: The author analyzes the various staging of the drama Kordian by J. Slowacki, showing the importance the Polish directors generally attach to the romantic drama (they compare versions of directors such as J. Kotarbiński, Leon Schiller, Erwin Axer, J. Grotowski, A. Hanuszkiewicz, their contribution to the interpretation of the text, the technical difficulties related to the staging, the inventiveness and upgrading of stage facilities). Once the censorship had disappeared they broke with the romantic drama, by means of which they conveyed their Polish audience numerous moral and political issues, keeping awake their critical spirit and resistance to the communist ideology.
