Powroty do Soplicowa. „Pan Tadeusz” Adama Mickiewicza w najnowszej poezji polskiej
Returns to Soplicowo. Adam Mickiewicz’s “Pan Tadeusz” in the Latest Polish Poetry

Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the theme of Adam Mickiewicz’s "Pan Tadeusz’s" functioning in the latest Polish poetry. The author of the article analyses and interprets those pieces in which one finds numerous references to Mickiewicz’s work. In doing that, Maryjka offers to-date reception of Tomasz Różycki’s poem "Dwanaście stacji" ("Twelve Stations"), most famous piece of poetry composed in the last years referring to Mickiewicz’s epopee, and enriches that part with his interpretive propositions. Pieces by other poets, e.g. Paweł Marcinkiewicz’s "Diarhoea" as well as Dariusz Suska’s "Elegia podróżna" ("Travel Elegy"), and "Światło" ("Light") are also subject of analysis. Following Mickiewicz’s traces allows the author to answer the questions about the role of literary tradition in the eyes of poets and Mickiewicz’s creativity itself.
