"It Might also Be Good to Leave for the US". Jacek Podsiadło's (Two?) Americas

Author(s): Mariusz Jochemczyk
Subject(s): Literary Texts
Published by: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu w Białymstoku
Keywords: 20th century Polish poetry; Jacek Podsiadło; America

Summary/Abstract: The analysis attempts a definition of the lines of dependency which the work by Jacek Podsiadło (the leading poet of the „bruLion” generation) shares with the tradition of the broadly understood American culture. The abovementioned "network of influences" shows how strongly the poet's imagination is inspired and led by what may be called his permanent fascination with the American way of life and, also, the "spiritual" and "pop" versions of American heritage.
