Poetic Performativity
Poetic Performativity

Summary/Abstract: The author examines the performative status of a poetic work. Following T. Różewicz, he points tonon-textual and potential forms of poetry’s existence. As a counterbalance to excessive adherence totextocentrism, he proposes functionalizing the tools of the new humanities (R. Nycz) and the theoryof affect (B. Massumi) in the analysis of the creative act. The author indicates ways of studying thepoetic experience with reference to the performative actor model (W. Baluch). Demonstrated voicerecordings of poetic performances in the context of Dramatic Theory of Literature (A. Krajewska) areexamples of gaining special insight into experience and dramatic self-discovery.
