Akulturacja? Czy inny wektor współczesności? Kilka słów o refleksji Czesława Miłosza
Journal Title: Prace Polonistyczne - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
While Max Scheler’s acculturation problematic is once more topical, under the better known term “globalisation” (in the sense of westernisation), there are vectors in our culture that appear to run counter to this unifying trend. In our article, we examine one of Czesław Miłosz’s poetic intuitions that is today “embodied” in the writings of François Cheng, the Chinese-born French poet and thinker. In his essays on beauty, we analyse the swinging back and forth between poetry, thought and painting; we also examine the meeting of Eastern (Buddhist and Taoist) and Western (Christian) thought; a meeting that Cheng and Miłosz particularly perceived in the pantings of Cézanne and which, while constituting a link between these two traditions, would, according to them, also make up for the greatest western weakness, i.e. Cartesianism.
