„Próżne nam były Kasandry wołania”. O wybranych inspiracjach antykiem w twórczości Wincentego Korab-Brzozowskiego

Abstract

The article on the presence of ancient inspirations in the writings by Wincenty Korab-Brzozowski’s focuses on recalling mythical figures in his poetry, prose and paraphrases of this author. The analysis of selected works proceeded with the use of a comparative method – a juxtaposition of Young Poland’s works with ancient applications, which became patterns for the poet. The interpretations made indicated alike faithful use of the texts of the old masters, and attempts to transform these narratives, when the poet was interested in passing on the content important to him.
