Doświadczanie przestrzeni w twórczości Andrzeja Barta i Zbigniewa Kruszyńskiego
Cities and Spaces in the Works of Andrzej Bart and Zbigniew Kruszyński

Summary/Abstract: The article reflects upon the works of Andrzej Bart and Zbigniew Kruszyński, concentrating on how urban space is correlated with the category of identity. The most useful here then seems geopoetic reading with its concepts of history’s influence upon geography (and different visions of Polish identity), biography and space identity, mythologizing urban space (Łódź in Bart, Radom and Wrocław in Kruszyński), and the relationship between autobiographical memory and space experience. Additionally, of special importance here is the interaction between movement and stability and between sedentariness and nomadism.
