Tadeusz Różewicz and Modern Identity in Poland since the Second World War
As Andrzej Mencwel observed, “as a result of fundamental historical changes” the need arises for “restructuring of the whole present memory and tradition system” (Rodzinna Europa po raz pierwszy). Changes of such significance took place in Poland during the Second World War and several following decades. Collective experience of that time was made up of – apart from political antagonisms – social and cultural phenomena such as change of elites, reinterpretation of their grand narratives (or symbolic world), the ultimate inclusion of the masses into the national project based on the post-gentry tradition and national history, the intensive development of urban lifestyle and the ex...

"One of the most powerful recent achievements of the poet who has been called 'the chronicler of the 20th century', and recognised as one of Europe's outstanding artists.

The Survivors and Other Poems
The description for this book, The Survivors and Other Poems, will be forthcoming.
The Trap
First Published in 1998. The Polish Theatre Archive makes available in English translation major works of Poland's dramatic literature as well as monographs and critical studies -on Polish playwrights, theatre artists and stage history. Although he has not written anything new for the theatre since The Trap (Pulapka, 1981), Tadeusz Rozewicz remains the most provocative and original Polish playwright of the post-war period. His probing of the boundaries traditionally assigned to theatre has put him in the forefront of artistic innovators along with Kantor and Grotowski. Outstanding directors have sought to realize his work in production, despite inherent tensions between the author's radically experimental propositions and the nature of theatre itself.
new poems
Written in a pared-down, direct language, and filled with allusions to everything from philosophy to TV talk shows, the poetry of Tadeusz Rózewicz encompasses the complexity of human experience in the early 21st century. Rózewicz's unique voice, formed during his experiences as a member of the Polish resistance in World War II, and honed by decades living under communist rule, holds a merciless mirror up to the crimes and excesses of the poet's lifetime. In his eighties now, Rózewicz continues to be a prolific writer and an acerbic commentator on his life and times. This collection combines his latest three volumes: professor's knife, gray zone, and exit. These are extraordinary poems from an acknowledged European master.
