Du sens à la folie dans "La Folle de Chaillot" de Jean Giraudoux
2016
The play entitled The Madwoman of Chaillot (1945) by Jean Giraudoux (1882– 1944) is a poetic expression, through a true/false game, of the author’s anxiety concerning the politics of the excessive exploitation of the Earth’s natural resources and its consequences. The idea of getting rich no matter what has been ridiculed with mastery, due to the characteristics of the style of the author of Electra, such as parody, irony, and agility. The main character is ambivalent, which allows interpretative variations and makes the matter of the play complicated and equivocal, which has been proved by the Polish staging of the play in 1947.
O wierszach (nie tylko) dla dzieci Juliana Kornhausera
2018
The article is based on a synthetic description of this part of Julian Komhauser’s oeuvre, in which the figure of a child appears. Thus, it focuses on the interpretation of a selection of the poet’s texts that are addressed to children exclusively. A significant part is therefore devoted to considerations on the poems that are situated in the borderland between literature for children and texts for adults. The major synthetic aim of the article is an attempt to divide Kornhauser’s “children’s poems” into two main categories: carnivalesque, as well as reflexive and symbolic ones.
