Poetic Musicology among Musical Discourses: The Poet as a Listener

Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: This paper analyses selected examples of Polish poetry from the 20th century devoted to music (poems by Adam Zagajewski and Julia Hartwig), placing them in the context of the musicological discourses that exist today, particularly the auditive discourse. Poems devoted to music are treated as cultural statements – evidence of the reception of music. The concept of “poetic musicology” elaborated by Anna Barańczak in the 1970s, still one of the most valid and important strategies for speaking about music, has been updated and revitalised, placed in the space of culture, particularly in the area of Polish human sciences, where there is an exceptionally rich and diverse poetic output related to music.
