The same goes for Cyprian Norwid, one of the most eminent poets in the history of Polish literature, a thinker, and an artist. This book scrutinizes Norwid’s fascination with Greek history and culture, especially his peculiar synthesis of Greek thought and Christianity. It focuses on the key themes of the relationship of Platonism with early Christian writings and their presence in Norwid’s contemporary culture, the opposition of memory and history in 19th-c. literature and social life, and the image of the artist and its influence on social life in modern everyday. The book analyzes Norwid’s oeuvre in a broad comparison with representatives of French, German, and British literature and the humanities. 2022-02-18T15:03:20Z 2022-02-18T15:03:20Z 2020 book ONIX_20220218_9783631830789_47 9783631830789 9783631830796 9783631830802 9783631830772 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/52991 eng Studies in Classical Literature and Culture application/pdf n/a 9783631830789.pdf Peter Lang International Academic Publishers 10.3726/b17341 10.3726/b17341 e927e604-2954-4bf6-826b-d5ecb47c6555 9783631830789 9783631830796 9783631830802 9783631830772 10 272 Bern open access
