Itinerary of Poems Notes from Journeys along the Trail of 'Poemat o mieście Lublinie'

Summary/Abstract: Poemat o mieście Lublinie, written by Józef Czechowicz in 1934, is musical score of sorts. Its realisations (a radio programme conceived by the poet, successive strata of interpreting Poemat ... as a literary text, actual expeditions across Lublin along the route described in the poem) provide each other with various options of reading the text and associated registers of meanings; in doing so they expand and render nuanced the complex (semantic, imaginary, existential) inner potential of the poem, which is a certain form of memory (Czechowicz used the term: ”recollection”) and which inserts memory-recollection into the town’s topography. This gesture performed by the poet and the permeation of an imaginary trail and an actual itinerary are the object of the reflections pursued by the author of this essay, which is another sort of wandering involving the imagination, thoughts, and writing.
