TI - Confronting Polish Patriotic Canon in But With Our Dead Ones by Jacek Dehnel
AB - The aim of the article is to present the ways, in which the Polish patriotic canon functions in Jacek Dehnel’s novel But With Our Dead Ones. In the first part, the author presents the connections between the enforcement of one – canonical, official – version of national identity and the upsurge of the nationalist attitudes in the modern Polish society depicted in the novel. In the second part, the author discusses the homogenizing strategies of adapting the Romantic legacy to the needs of nationalist ideology. The third part includes the analysis of the selected consequences of an uncritical approach to the Polish patriotic canon; and the interpretation of the allegoric tools used by Dehnel.
