Kolory miasta w twórczości Władysława Stanisława Reymonta}, volume={24}, url={https://czasopisma.uksw.edu.pl/index.php/cl/article/view/5816}, DOI={10.21697/cl.201811}, abstractNote={<p>This article attempt to analyze Reymont’s writings, paying particular attention<br>to how he created urban space; most specifically, the author looks<br>at the way in which Reymont used the palette of colours to depict the city<br>in general. The author starts with a quote from Reymont’s letter to Antoni<br>Wodziński: ‘Myself I consider everything I have written until “Chłopi” my<br>literary introduction. These are the things that are seen, now it is time for<br>what is felt, and later for the thought out’.The interpretation of the urban<br>colour scheme in the novellas, “Ziemia Obiecana”, and “Wampir”, using<br>three registers – a diachronic layout, referential optics, and in the context of<br>the Young Poland mythology about the evils of the city – reveals that colour<br>in Reymont’s prose on urban topics (with the exception of a few early texts)<br>results from ‘the seen’ only to a limited degree, and that it is owed more to<br>‘the felt’ and ‘the thought out’. All this bears witness to the antirevolutionary<br>views of Reymont and the Young Poland’s ‘urbanophobia’ and is a palpable<br>sign of the historico-literary affectability of the period.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Colloquia Litteraria}, author={Utkowska, Beata}, year={2020}, month={cze.}, pages={7–26} }
