Wątki ukraińskie w twórczości Eugeniusza Tkaczyszyna-Dyckiego

Abstrakt

In this article the author explores the Ukrainian motifs in Eugeniusz Tkaczyszyn-Dycki’s poetry, which appear from the first volume to the last, so they are durable. At the beginning the research examines Dycki’s interest in the Baroque, because in this period Ruthenian (Ukrainian) motifs began to appear. The paper presents the theses on Eastern themes by Dycki, which were described by other researchers, to which the author referred and which he creatively developed. The article has stated that the theory of post-colonialism does not fully match the Polish-Ukrainian realities. In Dycki’s works we notice an attempt to build an idyll in Polish-Ukrainian relations, and at the same time its disintegration was shown. The author of the article has found an analogy for this attitude of alienation and disinheritance in the interpretation of the life and work of Jean Genet, which was presented by Jean-Paul Sartre in his book „Saint Genet, Actor and Martyr”. The research has reconstructed family relations with his father and mother in Dycki’s poetry, and also examined the function of Ukrainian words appearing in his poems. First of all, his relationship with his mother, indicating an emotional dependence, attracts attention.
