When Miłosz and Masłowska enter the metro

Summary/Abstract: The article is an interpretation of Esse by Czesław Miłosz and a fragment of a book by Dorota Masłowska Darling, I killed our cats (Kochanie zabiłam nasze koty). It presents similarities and differences in the perception of the world and people which partially stem from generational, technological, and cultural changes. Travelling by metro is the comparative area which the authors use as the context for reflection on interpersonal relations and cognitive possibilities. The background for the juxtaposition are remarks of George Simmel on the behaviour of the citizens of metropolises. For both works, they are a valuable, yet different, reference point.
