Uniwersytet w BiałymstokuAbstract
The paper contains the answer to the question why Tadeusz Różewicz did not realize his intention to write a play about Walerian Łukasiński, Polish patriot, who spent 46 years in a Russian prison, for many years with the ban on communication. In order to give it, the author analyzes the relation of poetry, silence and sacrum in Różewicz’s literary works and his author’s expressions, formulating a thesis that not having written a play on Łukasiński was a manifestation of the poet’s maximalism: searching for
an expression of tragism, and especially the prisoner’s silence, he preferred to leave them in the sphere of silence, beyond the word.
