Abstract

Ovaj se diplomski rad bavi političkim i etičkim aspektima poezije Zbigniewa Herberta (1924.
– 1998.) - jednog od najistaknutijih poljskih, ali i europskih književnika 20. stoljeća. S obzirom
na iskustvo Drugog svjetskog rata i komunističkog režima u Poljskoj, Herbert se trudio
oduprijeti previranjima povijesti i zauzeti jasan moralni stav, a cilj ovog rada je pokazati kako
je to činio kroz svoju poeziju. Kroz analiziranje nekoliko njegovih pjesama nastojat će se
iščitati Herbertov politički komentar odnosno na koje je načine opisivao i kako je percipirao
političko stanje svog vremena; je li interpretacija njegove poezije ovisna samo o kontekstu u
kojem je pisana; na koji je način književna i kulturna tradicija utjecala na njegova etička i
politička stajališta te koje su vrijednosti na vrhu njegove aksiologije i srž njegovog etičkog
manifesta.

Abstract (english)

This thesis explores the political and ethical aspects of the poetry of Zbigniew Herbert (1924 -
1998) - one of the most prominent Polish and European writers of the 20th century. Considering
the experience of the Second World War and the communist regime in Poland, Herbert tried to
resist the turmoil of history and take a clear moral stance, and the aim of this thesis is to show
how he did it through his poetry. Through the analysis of several of his poems, we will try to
read Herbert's political commentary, that is, in which ways he described and how he perceived
the political situation of his time; does the interpretation of his poetry depend only on the
context in which it was written; in which way the literary and cultural tradition influenced his
ethical and political views and which values are at the top of his axiology and the core of his
ethical manifesto
