Three Poems
Children of WarFrom words he kindled glances.From glances he ignited words.He turned the effort of numbersinto broad volleys of breath.And the crowd roared in on the tide,its crest swelled and broke.The manes of uncovered heads bowedtoward the foot of the podium.The speaker suspended the flight of sentences –caught sight of the children. In their silver hairthey bore the time of terrorlike motionless air.And by the time his voice rose to a shout,…
New Poems from Wisława Szymborska
Nobel laureate Wisława Szymborska's presence continues to be felt.

Znaki Szczególne: biografia wewnętrzna by Joanna Gromek-Illg (Znak, Kraków: 2020) and an earlier one now revised and expanded—Anna Bikont and …
In Stanisław Lem's Orbit
With the notable exception of his paleolithic feminism,1 Stanisław Lem (1921–2006) was a twenty-first-century writer writing in the twentieth century. As early as the 1960s, he anticipated much of the twenty-first century's information technology and biotechnology—tablets, personal computers, smart phones, eBooks, virtual reality, artificial intelligence, robotics, holograms, advanced prosthetics, human-machine interfaces. Yet he also surmised th…
In the Shadow of Shoah
This article discusses Stanisław Lem's early prose works, which were written shortly after the end of World War II. In light of the institutional state censorship of the time, the traumatic experience of the 1941 Lviv [then Lwów] pogrom and Lem's attempts at survival outside the Lviv ghetto, this article offers a broad historical, biographical, and political context for the interpretation of these early works, revealing political allusions and au…

elżbieta skibińska [er]: How did you discover Lem's prose? Were you familiar with his works before you were asked to translate them into Japanese?mitsuyoshi numano [mn]: The first Lem novels that fell into my hands were Solaris and The Invincible. They were included in an anthology of world literature in the science fiction genre, published by the Hayakawa Publishing House, although they were translations from the Russian. I was probably fifteen …
Witkacy on Drugs
In 1925, Polish writer, painter, photographer, philosopher, playwright, and novelist Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz (1885–1939) also known as Witkacy, parodically pronounced the death of art and opened a private portraiture firm, an artist's studio where patrons, qua customers, could purchase a portrait, but were subjected to a contract with a striking list of options and rules. The paintings, sketches, and pastels produced through this process rang…
Retroactive Catastrophe
From E.E. to Erna Eltzner
This article considers Olga Tokarczuk’s novel E.E. (1995) as dialogic site for a critique of early twentieth-century psychology at the time of its engagement with spiritism. Carl Gustav Jung’s doctoral dissertation, “On the Psychology and Pathology of So-Called Occult Phenomena” (1902) serves as a key intertext. Tokarczuk’s heroine, an adolescent medium, Erna Eltzner (E.E.), fashioned after Jung’s case study, S.W., exemplifies the use of young fe…

Olga Tokarczuk’s Portrait of Jacob Frank against the Backdrop of His Times
In Księgi Jakubowe [The Books of Jacob], a fictionalized account of the eighteenth-century religious leader Jacob Frank and his followers, Olga Tokarczuk crafts a narrative that privileges the diverse and often nonconvergent perspectives of characters caught up in historical events that they do not fully understand. Likewise, in Bieguni [Flights], Tokarczuk allows the diverse narratives making up this “constellation novel” to unfold under the aut…
