Abstract
The article is devoted to the interpretation of three metapoetic propositions created on the grounds of Polish literary critique of the period of Positivism. Their authors included the following: Antoni Pilecki, Stanisław Grudziński and Piotr Chmielowski. Te first critic proposes a model of utilitarian poetry, servant to the ideals and a socialist program of positivists, the other advocated poetic idealism, while Chmielowski introduced the concept of poetry in the early 1880s, extending the scale of its possibilities by a factor of imagination. All these projects were characterized by a cultural outline of poetic art, which put a strong emphasis on its cognitive function and ideological values. The analysis of Pilecki and Chmielowski’s performances has shown the important role posed by positivist critics, despite appearances. Usability, beauty and imagination are three knotty words around which critical literary discourses devoted to poetry have developed.
