JAN PARANDOWSKI AND THE PROBLEM OF AUTHOR’S SOLITUDE

Journal Title: Філософські обрії - Year 2016, Vol 35, Issue 35

Abstract

On the basis of works by Polish writer and philosopher Jan Parandowski, the author examines the phenomenon of loneliness as a necessary context of the entire literary process. This is exactly how a specific understanding of the phenomenon of man and his/her uniqueness starts. Attention is drawn to a special role of historical realities, under which the process of formatting of existential problems in the new, post-war artistic world picture occurs. Especially when the typical antiwar pathos gradually begins to turn into existential one, shifting the emphasis on the fate of specific individuals, freedom of choice, need for perceiving oneself and the world around. The author tries to distinguish and define such concepts as inspiration and concentration in the creative process, which will directly depend on the experience of solitude, possessed by the artist. As a matter of fact, for Jan Parandowski himself it is obvious that without loneliness creator is capable neither of self-realization, nor of self-actualization. In this fact one can see the manifestation of the need for solitude and alienation of creative personality. In general, the following is unacceptable for the Polish thinker: the situation of presence of anyone else in those moments when everything will depend on his internal concentration, silence, and solitude, which is for him nothing else but mother of perfection
