Description
Summary:The article takes up the essential motif of European identity and memory, in Czesław Miłosz’s creativity and biography. The author aims to reconstruct Miłosz’s ideas of his own sense of belonging to Central and Eastern part of the old continent, of ‘the other Europe’, that in the writer’s memory served as an important reference point, even in the periods of depression or feeling of loss of identity caused by long emigration. Having analysed the convictions expressed by Miłosz in Native Realm, the author of the article aims to present the specific way of viewing the Nobel Laureate’s concept of Polish identity as well as European identity.
