Ravenna “Painted with a Dream”. On Creative and Oneirogenic Properties of the Place
Anna Wydrycka
Uniwersytet w BiałymstokuAbstract
The article interprets lyric poems, the subject of which is the last capital of the Western Roman Empire, Ravenna. It was treated as a place serving to define identity (Bronisław Przyłuski’s poems), self-presentation (Lechoń’s lyrical poem), and particularly as w place of oneirogenic nature (poems of Lechoń, Różewicz and others). The number of Polish works connected with Ravenna demonstrates a perennial fascination with the city. Two threads recur in them: Dantean and that emphasizing the art of mosaic, reaching the heights of metaphysics.
