Praca składa się z trzech zasadniczych części. Rozdział I poświęcony jest teorii regionalizmu. Rozdział II rozprawy przybliża sylwetkę Juliana Korsaka. Ze względu na wyjątkowo skąpe informacje dotyczące biografii poety, zdecydowałam się wprowadzić tło historyczne oraz geograficzne, pozwalające lepiej poznać czas i przestrzeń, które ukształtowały twórcę. Do tej części pracy należą dwa załączniki umieszczone na końcu rozprawy – mapka z miejscem urodzenia Korsaka oraz zarys genealogii poety z herbem rodowym. Rozdział III to zasadnicza część pracy, zawierająca analizę utworów pod kątem zawartych w nim treści regionalnych. Ze względu na wielopoziomowość badań nie udało się przyjąć bardziej systematyzującej formy tej części rozprawy. Rozdział ten składa się z pierwszego podrozdziału omawiającego emocjonalny stosunek do kraju ojczystego, drugiego podrozdziału analizującego konkretne przejawy regionalizmu w postaci pojawiających się w utworach nazw topograficznych, nazwisk osób związanych z regionem, symboli i motywów oraz trzeciego podrozdziału, w którym autorka wymienia przykłady regionalizmów językowych występujących w analizowanym materiale. / Darbas susideda iš trijų pagrindinių dalių. I skyriuje nagrinėjama regionalizmo teorija. Darbo II skyrius skirtas Julijano Korsako asmenybei. Kadangi yra labai mažai medžiagos susijusios su poeto biografija, nutariau parodyti istorinį bei geografinį foną. Tai padėjo geriau pažinti laikotarpį bei aplinką, kuriuose susiformavo kūrėjas. Prie šios darbo dalies yra du priedai – nedidelis žemėlapis su pažymėta Korsako gimimo vieta bei poeto genealoginė apybraiža su šeimos herbu. III skyrius tai pagrindinė darbo dalis, kurią sudaro kūrinių analizė pagal juose atsispindinčius regioninius motyvus. Šį skyrių sudaro pirmas poskyris, kuriame aptariamas emocinis ryšys su tėvyne, antras poskyris, kuriame analizuojami regionalizmo reiškiniai, atsispindintys veikaluose paminėtuose topografiniuose pavadinimuose, su regionu susijusių žmonių pavardėse, simboliuose ir motyvuose bei trečias poskyris, kuriame minimi nagrinėjamoje medžiagoje pasireiškiantys kalbos regionalizmo pavyzdžiai. Darbo pagrindinis tikslas buvo parodyti Juliano Korsako poezijoje įvairius regionalizmo aspektus. Tikiuosi, kad tai man nors iš dalies pavyko. Norėčiau pažymėti, kad dėl to, kad mažai yra mokslinių darbų mano pasirinkta tema, rašyti magistro darbą buvo sudėtinga, tačiau ilgainiui tyrinėjant temą ji suteikė man didelį pasitenkinimą. / The monograph includes a complex of problems connected with the regionalism character of Julian Korsak poetry. A lot of attention is paid to the problems of literature regionalism theory. The term regionalism is already known from many years, bet its treats intuicionally. There is no unequivocal definicion . The monograph presents types of definitions this problem. The analysis of the regionalism character of Julian Korsak poetry shown, that its exists in many levels of this literature – from the motives, names, symbols or geographic points till the language of poetry. The main part of the monograph deals with the examples of regionalism in poetry of Julian Korsak. It presents their basic types, construction, models and principle of use. The monograph also discusses abaut life of Julian Korsak. Becouse of insufficient sources about his biography, I decided to write about epoch and region of his childhood and adoult life. The main target of this monograph was to show the many perspectives and aspects of regionalism in Julian Korsak‘s poetry, what I hope is success. The absence of documents and other monographs about regionalism and poet‘s biography was a difficulty, bet at the same time it was an source of reserch satisfaction.

The dissertation examines how medieval poetic tradition was reactivated in the production of poetry from the period between the two world wars—the Polish interwar period, defined here as one of literary transition. The positioning in regard to certain literary conventions and the quest for a new normativity that is so prevalent in interwar poetry is also reflected in the era’s poetry on the theme of Mary. Marian lyrics, owing to their strong position in Polish literature (but also by dint of their role in Polish piety and national identity), serve as an indicator in identifying and defining certain poetic processes. Central to this are the respective relationships of Marian themes to tradition and to the poetic norms of the era: is a given poem located along the traditional axis (if so, which), does it run counter to it, or is it an innovation? The poems analysed—Julian Przyboś’ Heavenly Blue, Jerzy Liebert’s Litany to the Virgin Mary, Tytus Czyżewski’s De profundis, Maria Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska’s The Black Portrait, Józef Czechowicz’ pious rhymes—represent disparate poetic models: the Krakow Avant-garde, Catholic literature, formism/futurism, the circle of Skamander, the Poetics of the Third Sphere in the Second Avant-garde. Reflected here is the broad spectrum of the period’s poetic trends, tendencies, and constellations—as are the historical and literary events of the era. Despite important differences in the poetic/aesthetic models, in these poems it is possible to identify shared characteristics relevant to this study, that is, elements of medieval poetry. The identifying criterion for these elements here is the concept of dogmatic formal language. In the poems medieval poetics are transformed into their own modern form and integrated into the respective poetic models. No other literary epoch offers what the poets are seeking better than poetic formal language modelled on medieval liturgical language. The five poets all participate in what has been called the interwar paradigm shift in Polish poetry—a parameter that only indirectly relates to modernism. The term high modernism (in the sense of the culmination of Polish poetic modernism) can serve to summarize the historical and literary delimitations and definitions in the study. As interwar poetry is indeed part of the definitive emergence and full expansion of modernism in Polish literature, serving as a link between tradition and innovation, such a study of the influence of high modernism and Marian lyrics on each other aspires to reflect general processes in the poetry of the time.

(in English) In this diploma thesis we will focus on the current possibilities of using the region as a motive and an instrument of poetic narration on the Czech - polish example. In recent years, regional literature has represented widely discussed, yet still semantically and conceptually ambiguous field in the area of literary theory. First part of thesis represents the basic concepts for research of regionalism in literature and also works with selected theories of Czech and Polish literary theorists. Second part presents interpretative chapters, which are concentrated on a concrete schemes of region in poems collections by Czech and Polish poets.
