Krajobraz, mapa, pejzaż – powinowactwa romantyczne

Abstract

The author leads out of the linguistic practice of Joachim Lelewel, who was the first in Poland to use the term ‘landscape’ in the sense of geographical card. Then she follows the Polish history of the word ‘krajobraz’ (landscape), its connections with map and literary landscape in order to pose a question on possible consequences of the cartographic genealogy of ‘landscape’ for literary work. The author search for the answer to this question in the art of landscape in Mickiewicz’s Ballady i romanse (Ballads and Romances) as well as in his ‘map-oriented thinking’.
