Stanislaw BaranczakPoetry and the Spirit of Generalisation
Stanislaw Baranczak's selection of essays from 1970-1995 brings together the most important texts from the books Irony and Harmony, Ethics and Poetics, The Worst Books, The Tablet from Macondo, as well as essays published until now only in American and Polish journals. The author's immense erudition, versatility of interest and superb sense of humour are the chief qualities of this impressive and important book.
"Stanislaw Baranczak's essay writing induces reflection for it is more the art of asking questions than the dishing out of confident answers (...) it questions the sense of literature and the sense of everything that surrounds us." (Janusz Drzewucki, Rzeczpospolita)
