THE CATEGORY OF AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL PLACE IN MICHAŁ GŁOWIŃSKI’S PROSE: MEMORY, IMAGINATION, SPACE

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of Michał Głowiński’s memories of prose using the category of autobiographical place. The author of this term, Małgorzata Czermińska, proposes a new interpretative quality within geopoetics. In the article „Autobiographical places. The geopoetics proposal” details and discusses in turn the types of autobiographical sites referring to various examples. Czermińska’s concept is confronted with Głowiński’s prose works. Places and spaces turn out to be an important element of the memory prose of the author of „Circles of Strangeness”, and the category itself is a valuable tool that can be used to interpret it.
