Estetyka pism Tadeusza Micińskiego: rozpoznania

Abstract

The author of the essay reflects on the specificity of Tadeusz Miciński’s aesthetic prose. First, he analyzes the prevailing trends in the readings (the sublime, the grotesque, the tragic, the absurd), in order to formulate his own research suggestions. In Miciński’s writings, beauty, says the researcher, has not been in confrontation with idea. This beauty has been since its youth formed by an idiomatic personality of the great writing talent. This talent passed through the work, while beauty underwent constant transformations here and there – but basically its specific features remained determined by the “aesthetics of the inexpressible”, the history, existence and – to a lesser extent – the metaesthetics (Miciński – the art critic, the artist and the poet). These dominant aesthetics have been subjected to a functional focus: they played a role in the same spectacle of transforming the cosmos and discovering divinity, which was to emerge from the world.
