TY - JOUR TI - Czesław Miłosz and “The Generation of Columbuses” in Lithuanian Literature: A Contribution to One More Parallel Biography AU - Kalęba, Beata TI - Czesław Miłosz and “The Generation of Columbuses” in Lithuanian Literature: A Contribution to One More Parallel Biography AB - The main question discussed in the article is: why was it the Lithuanian emigration environment in USA that found Miłosz’s poetry a testimony of the era (de facto – their own experience) during the first decade after the WWII. To answer the question mainly two publications are interpreted: the first one is Miłosz’s poetry volume translated into Lithuanian, entitled Epochos sąmoningumo poezija (Poetry of the Era’s Self-Awareness) with introduction (by Miłosz) and afterword (by a poet Alfonsas Nyka-Niliūnas); the second one is a Lithuanian literary magazine „Literatūros lankai” („Literary sheets”) where Czesław Miłosz published, and where some interpretations of Miłosz’s works, written by Lithuanian writers and philosophers, were published as well.
