Refleksje artystyczne w polskiej liryce emigracyjnej. Przypadek Anny Frajlich
Artistic Reflections in Polish Émigré Poetry. Anna Frajlich’s Case

Summary/Abstract: The text is devoted to artistic reflections in the poetry of Anna Frajlich – a Polish emigre writer. The main subject of this analysis is the author’s personal thought on human existence set in the context of art broadly conceived. The author of this article focuses on several poems which were created during Frajlich’s two separate emigre periods, the Italian and the American ones, in which readers can trace symbolic but meaningful – in the context of the writer’s existential reflections – art inspirations. Though the scholarly analysis concentrates on the poetic works which reveal the evident pictorial context, none of them aims to verbally represent or reconstruct a piece of art, and for this reason they do not correspond with a classic definition of ekphrasis.
