Regarded primarily as a scandalist, Bruno Jasieński is also an innovator and 'theoretician' of the avant-garde. Then, so the argument, he converted to Communism and put his pen in the service of that ideology. He paid for it with the price of debasing his talent to the level of a socialist realist hack and, eventually, the price of his life when the regime he so avidly supported turned on him in the great purges of 1937-38. This article takes issue with the claim - which is part of the generally accepted narrative - that Jasieński 'swerved gently to the left' in 1923-1925. This article analyses the politics of young Bruno Jasieński's verse, i.e. the texts produced before 1921, the year of the publication of the first collection of his poems. In so far as his early poetic work contains nothing but praise of the Russian revolution and its ethos, his ideological evolution in the nineteen twenties should termed radicalization rather than a shift to the left.

This article explores various text coding strategies in the work of Polish Futurists. Drawing on the concept of Jerome J. McGann's bibliographic code, this analysis of the fonts, layout and typographic devices used in their texts reveals a development culminating in literary breakthrough at the beginning of the interwar period. It shows, moreover, that the Futurist revolutionists depended heavily on the material and manufacturing base which they wanted to overthrow and replace. That dependence manifests itself in the incongruous adoption of various traditional fonts, typographic and graphic designs, which remains the most striking characteristic of a Futuristic text.

Artykuł opisuje, w jaki sposób polityczne zaangażowanie polskiego futuryzmu wpłynęło na poetyckie reprezentacje tłumu. Futuryści przedstawiali masy jako rezerwuar energii na tyle silnej, że zdolnej nie tylko do obalenia dotychczasowego porządku, lecz również do stworzenia zrębów przyszłego ładu. A jednocześnie poszukiwali adekwatnych sposobów ich przedstawienia w popularnych słownikach epoki, sięgając po elementy dyskursu konserwatywnego, komunistycznego oraz militarnego. Spoiwem tych heterogenicznych, nie zawsze zbieżnych wyobrażeń była apoteoza rewolty, pojmowanej jako wyzwanie rzucone nowoczesnemu porządkowi (i kapitalizmowi).

The article presents a previously unknown poem by Jalu Kurek, found in the Józef Czechowicz Museum of Literature in Lublin. The youthful poem titled Nostalgia shows Kurek's breaking away from the spell of futurism and edging towards an avant-garde poetics with a great deal of juxtaposition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
