"Harfa Orfeusza" - uwagi na marginesie twórczości Marii Komornickiej

Maria Komornicka is the author who evokes the figure of Orpheus. In those of her works which were created towards the end of her life, the motif of journey, of search and that of collapse occur. Komornicka also announces the need for resurgence (the return);still, her biography and her corpus become the evidence of her loneliness and her being rejected. The figure of a singer, Orpheus, symbolizes poetry, dilemmas, the misgivings of the artist performing at the beginning of the XX century. One of the most significant problems is the loss of identity, which in turn leads to emptiness and melancholy. Komornicka’s corpus belongs to the current of existentialism.
