Metafory Parnickiego. Teologia i granice nowoczesności
Parnicki and his Metaphors. Theology and the Borders of Modernity

Summary/Abstract: This article offers an interpretation of the novel “Zabij Kleopatręˮ (1968) by Teodor Parnicki. Thanks to post-secular reflection, it is possible to situate the writer as a watchful observer of the so-called “exhaustion of modernity.ˮ This interpretation is based on a detailed analysis – through the disintegration of the generic determinants of the novel, the meta-literary level is gradually constructed to support a post-secular reading. “Zabij Kleopatręˮ can be regarded as a breakthrough novel among Parnicki’s writings.
