Słowa z kresek : pobudki wiersza w poezji Piotra Sommera

In this article Kopkiewicz examines the relationship between memory, affect and experience, as well as the possibility of capturing this relationship in verse. Piotr Sommer’s poetry exemplifies a weaving together of memory and sensory experience, or of writing and the event in possible simultaneity. This weaving together, however, is performed not by drawing on the myth of transparent representation, but through the use of notes, sketches and photographs - media that allow Sommer to approach the present without grounding the "I" in the metaphysics of presence. By accentuating transience, materiality and arbitrariness in the presence of subjectivity, this perspective ties in with Jean-Luc Nancy’s philosophy of time and mediatization.
