Abstract

The object of analysis in this article is a type of multi-layer description characteristic of Schulz and certain writers and painters of his era. According to the author, Schulz’s descriptions of space include a reflection of two attitudes: 1) a mystical rapture by the sacral world and 2) a sense of degradation of human existence. Simultaneously, however, what manifests itself in them is a fascination with the artificiality typical of the era in which he worked.

Keywords:

space, oneiric poetics, narration, literary description, Bruno Schulz
