Perełka z lamusa, czyli Słowniczek Wojciecha Wilczyka. Analiza dyskursu o tzw. młodej poezji

Abstract

The year 1989 marks a dividing line in the history of literature; at the same time, it should be added that any periodic boundaries are, of course, conventional; also this one was, and still is, undermined. The change of socio-economic system was connected with anticipation of a turning point in literature. The opinions of the researchers whether this turning point occurred or not, became a reason of numerous discussions. There appeared some evaluations, many of which functioned as the common tokens such as “the decline of the entirety,” “the generation of the thirty-year-olds” or the subsequent “born in the 70s.” For the author of the present article, these discussions constitute an important context. The essential assumption is the necessity to present the discourses upon the poets (statements of the writers themselves, as well as of the critics and the journalists) in the context of the principles of the collective communication, that is the wider symbolic continuum. According to A.L. Strauss’ concept, the category of the social world was taken into the description. The continuous negotiating of the boundaries is the feature of every social world.
