CZESŁAW MIŁOSZ’S ADVENTURES WITH PHOTOS %A Zalewski, Cezary %J Wielogłos %V 2007 %N Issue 1 (1) 2007 %P 97-109 %@ 1897-1962 %D 2007 %U https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/wieloglos/article/wiecej-niz-na-fotografii-czeslawa-milosza-przygody-ze-zdjeciami %X The article concerns Czesław Miłosz’s late poetry which contains a few poems dedicated to old photographs (from XIX and beginning of XX century). Active dialogue which Miłosz displays in his works runs symmetrically and paralle. On the one hand Miłosz admiring feminine beauty (Piękna nieznajoma) or condemning bloodthirsty crowd (Człowiek-Mucha) yields subjective temptations which uncovers his own illusions. On the other hand: when he presents photos of dead persons (Mój dziadek Zygmunt Kunat, Anka, Fotografi a) he in fact describes the experience of epiphany which leads him to the truth.
