In the classical current of Polish lyrical poetry, formed after 1989, strong catastrophic elements have recently emerged. This article is an attempt at demonstrating how catastrophism has become the crucial construction principle of the poem Trzecia część [Third part] of Krzysztof Koehler, one of the most important classicizing authors of new lyrical poetry. Building a catastrophic vision of the modern world, the poet-classicist reaches for tradition, refers to T.S. Eliot’s way of representation and conducts a hidden dialogue with the just post-war poetry of Czesław Miłosz.
