TY - JOUR TI - Tim Burton’s version of Panny z Wilka (The young Ladies of Wilko) AU - Koronkiewicz, Marta TI - Tim Burton’s version of Panny z Wilka (The young Ladies of Wilko) AB - The aim of this essay is to reflect on different aspects and understandings of “the uncanny” in the poetry of Justyna Bargielska. The authoress begins with analysing a few of the critical commentaries and reviews of Bargielska’s work; it seems that, one way or another, most of the literary critics – including the mainstream critics associated with a specific political option, like Andrzej Horubała – tend to infantilize the poet, identifying the subject of Bargielska’s poetry with an adolescent girl, immature and somehow unresponsible or dependent. As the authoress argues, this phenomenon has a lot to do with the literary criticism being not able to grasp and comprehend Bargielska’s references to children’s literature – picturebooks, fables, fairy tales, etc. – which remain fundamental for the very basis of her oeuvre. What the authoress proposes is to re-read Bargielska’s poems alongside the picturebooks and in context of the popular fairy tale themes, while at the same time implementing the anthropological figure of the “trickster”.
