TADEUSZ RÓŻEWICZ
"SAVED" Tadeusz Różewicz word in many his texts lets fear,or man burdened it will be in state the baggage of experiences normally to function in world. Bother poet it concerns matter proper the delivery of truth about war reality also. This is first connected from poem observation that the poem shows with raw, ascetic form - the lack here the m.in. of metaphors. Then poetry "without mask and costume" - how he qualified this alone Różewicz.It is careful that every poetical centres are superfluous,and even improper wówczas it when it was told was about death,suffering, final things.
VERSE I - consists from two straight lines of sentences about character of announcement only just:
"I have twenty four years I
saved
led on slaughter...(...)"
Sentences these make up first of all the kind of self - presentation of person speaker in text.Young remaining man is from war catastrophe lyrical subject. The world of subject speaking it divides on two parts:it past in which pretended him death was avoided was and nearer undefined present. Situation this underlines "imprisonment" speaking in history which executed subject.
VERSE II - the lyrical subject enumerates the antagonistic words znaczeniowo ( the"man and animal" - the "love and hatred") and the sign of equality places among them( they are then the empty names and unambiguous),expressing in this the way the conviction about bankruptcy of basic human values. Notions lost their meaning, do not way to distinguish hostile from friend. In world in which total chaos took control all principles and norm were trampled under foot and only man be treated how animal or alone he proceeded how animal, respecting not right human world.
VERSE III - the draught of considerations continues from previous stanza.The unusually drastic painting in monologue of lyrical subject appears - the "waggons of chopped up men". State this logical reason to this,from " it kills Man so how animal".
VERSE IV - the state retort of verse II. This again the counting-out rhyme of opposed notions ( the"virginity and offence" - the "truth and lie"itd).She underlines the phenomenon of devaluation of basic values, it shows on fall of decalogue.
VERSE V - the order of building and content reminds in turn verse III( the retort). The author in this verse underlines the fall of moral values again.Be showed here the painting of man which in normal reality warned ethical norms however he in ekstramalnych conditions had turned out "criminal", he did not know to match difficult situation.
VERSE VI - different under in relation to building from remaining verses,which shows on her importance and exceptionality of content which contains.And really:
" I look for teacher and master..."
- subject confesses lira. The bankruptcy of moral values gives the birth desperate the call about return to former order. The necessity and potrzebę of reconstruction of world "after catastrophe" the use anafory underlines: "let the sight restore me(...)","let once again the name of thing",itd. Statement this sends back to biblical tome Genesis,describing the rise of world. The creation of "teacher and master" reminds the only separating the "light from darkness" Creator. That stylization makes clear fact that the time of war withdrew to point of exit mankind.
VERSE VII - the state the exact retort of verse And .It is useful so the composition of text the closed arrangement the Confession the lyrical subject emphasizes mainly the fact the rescue from war catastrophe,which it sounds about many more dramatically here than in introduction. They decide about this the earlier verses,illustrating the fall of moral values. Anxiety be expressed about this here,or burdened with baggage someone so it painful survivals is able to function normally. Under affirming " I saved" it hides therefore fear and irony,because reality places before "saved" many new barriers.
The poem Różewicza it contains so many the essential matters relating the shape of post-war reality as well as retrieval in her of one''s place.
