A Law in Verse? Segmentation of The Preamble to The Constitution of the Republic of Poland in Light of the Verse Definition
This paper presents an attempt to discuss the prosodic order of the Preamble to the Polish Constitution of 1997 by using the common notion of the verse derived from the definition of a verse/poem. The author tries to answer the question of the supposed verse or prosaic nature of the Preamble. On the foundations of the editions of the Preamble and S. Wilkanowicz?s drafts of its text, the author tries to reconstruct implicit writer?s intention or intuition which underlies the lineation of the Preamble in order to propose a proper form of the text based on a typographic routine used in the poems written in verse.

This text presents some reflections on the the prosodic nature (versification) of the poems written by the young polish poets and poetess representing left-winged politically engaged poetry movement (Góra, Kopyt, Pietrek, Zydel, Freiheit and others) presented in the context of the debate on the importance of poetic form “Forms of Engagement”, which took place in 2016. By contrasting two different modes of writing an understanding the (so called) poetics function, it shows two entirely odd approaches to applicate the art of verse for a political purposes in the young polish literature.
