Śmierć to dialog. Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickinson i "podchodzenie śmierci".
Sławek, Tadeusz
The essay is an attempt at reading a story by Edgar Allan Poe and a poem by Emily Dickinson in order to investigate the way in which death makes its inroads into the domain of life. Poe’s text demonstrates that only through a thoughtful and careful incorporation of death into the biological matter of life can we resist, in a sensible way, death’s incursions which threaten our existence. Dickinson conveys the same message in different terms, i.e. between “Dust” and “Spirit”, as well as between the threat of dissolution (“Dissolve”) and the reassurance of “Trust”. A dialogue takes place here through which death presents itself in the house of life. It dwells within a person’s being, which now reveals itself as a constant exchange between the body and the soul. In order not to make this exchange a symptom of life-in-decline (which is a reference to Jan Patočka’s conceptmof civilization as waning, i.e. a kind of waning which he renders in the Czech languageas úpadková), a force has to operate within it which resists the temptation of both sides to demonstrate its supposedly unquestionable right towards the truth.

Ars moriendi a skandal śmierci.Rozważania nad "Ravelsteinem" Saula Bellowa
Jankowska, Małgorzata
This article deals with the modern cultural perception of the phenomenon of death. It attempts to describe the role that death plays in individual and social existencein the post-secular age. ‘Based on a critical reading of Saul Bellow’s novel Ravelstein the author analyzes the process of tabooization of death. Putting death under taboo is based on a new cultural paradigm which is connected with a new axiology where the highest values are the following: youth, vitality, strength, health and beauty. Death (which, obviously, is in contradiction to those values) appears as something ugly, cruel and shameful, and as something to be hidden from the public view. As death has been denaturalized and medicalized, it is no longer seen as something natural or as a kind of rite of passage. Without the religious context, death (understood as a kind of new taboo) becomes an individual and social trauma. Therefore, one looks for a “third path” and tries to place death between full acceptance and total rejection. Bellow’s character, Ravelstein, also looks for that “third path”.

Odmiany śmierci i umierania w prozie Ignacego Karpowicza
Kościańczuk, Marcela
This article presents mortality as a topic of Ignacy Karpowicz’s texts. Karpowicz multiplies the possible ways of understanding mortality (both at the formal and textual level). The analysis of the theme of mortality in Ignacy Karpowicz’s works is connected with reflection on topics such as routine or repeatability. The author is also interested in the status of reality. The main aim of the article is to analyze the ways in which Ignacy Karpowicz uses different categories which are ambivalent and connectedwith both mortality and life.

Jak umiera pisarz? Śmierci urojone (Morts Imaginaires) Michaela Schneidera jako nekrofikcje
Thiel-Jańczuk, Katarzyna
The starting point of Michel Schneider’s Morts imaginaires, which refers to Vies imaginaires of the Belgian symbolist writer Marcel Schwob, is ultima verba, i.e. the last words that could probably be said by dying writers in various times. However, by choosing to talk about them from the perspective of death, the French author does not want to participate in the “necrographical”, offi cial discourse of a writer’s death or in the biographical (historical) discourse, which do not respect the personal and singular experience of death. In this way, literary fi ction about the experience of dying, which is here called “necrofi ction” and which is legitimized by a psychoanalytic approach to the imaginary, becomes an alternative to the official forms of discourse about death or life.

Nieśmiertelność kosmiczna. Na marginesie powieści Tomasza Manna Wyznania hochsztaplera Feliksa Krulla
Ziemiński, Ireneusz
This article presents a philosophical interpretation of Thomas Mann’s novel Confessions of Felix Krull, in which the writer presents a very original conception of immortality. According to the main character of the novel, Felix Krull, it is not possible for humans to live after death, but people are, after all, eternal beings, because their existence cannot be eliminated from the history of the world. This means that even if the world ceases to exist in the future, the fact of our existence will remain for eternity because it will always be true that we were once a part of the world and its history.
