„Jakbym był miastem” – metaforyka cielesna w literackich przedstawieniach Białegostoku

Abstract

The analysis presents how three authors – Piotr Kuśmirek, Wiesław Kazanecki, and Jan Kamiński, who are permanently or only temporarily connected with Podlasie region, create the image of Białystok. In particular it interprets the metaphor of the body and demonstrates how it is applied to create the city’s image: starting with osmosis (Kuśmirek) through deep rooting of the subject (Kazanecki) to identification (Kamiński).
