Fantasy – gra z czytelnikiem o historię

Journal Title: Śląskie Studia Polonistyczne - Year 2011, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

The article concerns the problem of literary references of the fantasy trend to history. The author reviews various contemporary Polish fantasy novels by Sapkowski, Komuda, Jabłoński, Dębski and others) in which strictly historical knowledge was mixed with fabrications and magic elements. The conception of Sapkowski’s „retelling” and euhemerization (historical literalization of legendary figures and mythic events) was referred to. L’article aborde le problème des renvois à l’histoire au sein du courant de fantasy. L’auteur dresse le tableau de différents textes fantasy polonais (écrits par Sapkowski, Komuda, Jabłoński, Dębski et autres), où le savoir « scientifique » historique est entremêlé avec des fantaisies et des éléments magiques. Elle rappelle la conception de « retelling » de Sapkowski et la pratique de l’évhémérisme (une réalisation historique des personnages légendaires et des événements mythiques).
