(Bez) tabu w literaturze (nie)osobnej. O przekraczaniu granic w tekstach Davida Walliamsa
(No) Taboo in Literature (No) Separate. On Crossing Boundaries in David’s Walliams Texts

Summary/Abstract: The latest children’s literature is becoming not only an insightful observer of the modern world, but also increasingly assumes the role of commentator and translator of social and cultural phenomena. It is also controversial and defined in society as taboo. This trend is part of the writing of the British writer David Walliams, whose texts break down linguistic, mental, narrative and genre barriers, thus introducing new possibilities in the art of the word dedicated to the adult audience. The concept of crossing boundaries in the analyzed readings is considered in the presented sketch about the linguistic taboo defined by Zenon Leszczynski and the cultural taboo in the sense of Sigmund Freud. The aim of these actions is to try to determine the scope of current changes in the literary way of talking to a child about man in the real and imagined world.
