Seemingly indirect lyricism as an element of poetic strategy on the example of Elżbieta Skorupska-Raczyńska’s volume Liściarnia (2024)

<ns3:p>The article entitled Seemingly indirect lyricism as an element of poetic strategy on the example of Elżbieta Skorupska-Raczyńska’s volume “Liściarnia” (2024) presents the concept of reading the latest volume by the poet, author of six collections of lyric poetry. It shows the reception of “Liściarnia” as a lyrical compositional and memoiristic whole. The role of the omnipresent female lyrical “I” determining the interpretive possibilities is pointed out. The feminine poetic power in the presented collection was perceived primarily in three elements: expressive emotions, exposure of the richness of various forms of life, and the palpability of the individual poetic “I” even in works where the subject does not appear in the grammatical first person. This last phenomenon has been termed seemingly indirect lyricism and is presented – using selected poems as an example – as an element of poetic strategy that co-creates the invariant form of the collection.</ns3:p>
