Perwersyjny rdzen „Rozmyslan dominikanskich”

The article offers an analysis of Dominican Meditations from a perspective being different from the traditional. The analysis amounts to, inter alia, locating the text in line with other works composed approximately at the same time as Dominican Meditations, as well as with chronologically distinct texts. Set in cultural context, the juxtaposition reveals perversity of the text, understood after G. Bataille as a disretreat from death’s rape, and exhibits a macabre “hyperreality” of Christ’s torment.
