Modernistyczne imaginacje. O szkicu dramatycznym Ona Karola Homolacsa

Abstract

In 1905, Karol Homolacs self-publishes a short drama entitled She. This work of a fledgling artist takes up a theme that will affect the entire life of the creator – the anthroposophical idea. In this respect, the text is a complementary part of Polish modernism and the esoteric current within it, considered in the context of the history of ideas. She will be the starting point for further writing, artistic and pedagogical activities for the artist. The article shows the sources of esoteric symbolism in Homolacs’ drama and places them in a broader context of the creative thought of Young Poland.
