„Wzruszenia wreszcie nie wmówione” – Barańczak afektywnie

Abstract

The main aim of the article is an interpretation of Stanisław Barańczak's poem Przywracanie porządku (Restoration of order), written in Cambridge, USA, between December 1981 and July 1982. This composition may be analysed as a specific closure of one stage of his literary output and the starting point of new forms of his creative work. Contemporary affect theory (as a multiplicity of forms and types) proves to be a useful methodology, which affords possibilities for new interpretations of Barańczak's poetry.
