Dramatic Works

Viac o knihe

Exploring themes of existence and artistic legacy, the character Psymmachus reflects on the desire to merge with one's creations in Norwid's work. As a pivotal figure in Polish Romanticism, Norwid's innovative poetic style was largely overlooked until the 20th century. Renowned for his lyricism, he also produced a diverse range of dramatic works, from the Shakespearean "Cleopatra and Caesar" to mystical plays like "Wanda and Krakus," and satirical comedies that echo the philosophical depth found in T.S. Eliot's later plays.
