Sienkiewicza świat bez ojców

Journal Title: Śląskie Studia Polonistyczne - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

The article is an attempt to describe the literary genealogy of the cultural transformations of the role of a father and the relation father-son in the 19th century. The key role of literature in the modern liberal education allows us to see in this discourse the power which has conserved, violated and transformed this group of stereotypes of masculinity. The writer who exerted the greatest influence on the building of the attractive models of a man and a boy in the Polish culture was Henryk Sienkiewicz. The reading of these issues in his work brings the observations which immensely complicate the conventional images of masculinity or the relation fatherson in the 19th century culture.
