Abstrakt

The author of the article reflects on the category of memory in poetry by Julia Hartwig who constitutes the identity of the lyrical subject through a constant reference to the past. The motive of eyesight and photography, as noticed in frames, overlaps with the idea of repetition, being memory’s work against emptiness. The reality of the history, uncovered and turned inside out by a poetical „I”, combines with a dreamy vision and sub-consciousness many times. The role of memory turns out to be two-fold; a destructive and sense-illuminating one, including the element of distance and sublime. Distance in the light of memory demythologizes it, exposing „infidelity” in the light of what it has been entrusted with. Miłosz’s conception of testimony as a proof of existence appears important for considerations on memory in poetry by Hartwig. When confronted with a desire to retain things in a whole image, the awareness of emptying memory is consolidated by a dramatic nature of the attitude visible in works by the author of Czułość.
