Poezja, która stawia opór

Abstract

The article is a review of the monograph by Aleksandra Zasępa Od surrealizmu do poezji symbolu. Tendencje artystyczne w twórczości poetyckiej Janusza Stycznia published in 2017. The author, recognising the value of the first scholarly study of Styczeń’s work, pays attention to the shortcomings and inaccuracies found in the book, including: expressing judgments that are insufficiently scientifically founded, incorrect methodological approach, leaving the terms used without definitions, gaps in the subject literature. The author states that the reviewed monograph is characterised by relative scientific correctness; however, the statements formulated by the researcher are too superficial.
