In this article texts of Bolesław Leśmian dramas entitled: Pierrot i Kolombina and Skrzypek Opętany have been analysed. The main objects of this article are as follows: problem of writer’s block and his efforts in overcoming this crisis. Interpretation of Leśman’s dramas is methodologically refer to anthropological theory proposed in Gilbert Durand literary studies. Symbolic mining, hidden in mentioned texts, have been taken under mythocritical interpretation. Additionally the following aspects were discussed: artistic palingenesis of archaic myths, valorisation of setting typical for mysteries of regeneration and literary actualisation of ritual scenario.
In the article, I undertake to interpret Bruno Schulz’s prose using the methodological proposals introduced in the humanities by Gilbert Durand, a French anthropologist of imagination. Based on the implemented research perspective, the aim of the hermeneutics of The Street of Crocodiles and Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass was to unveil and discuss the imagined figures which form the anthropological network of meanings. The purpose of the array of anthropological and myth-criticism research tools used for analysing and interpreting the literary works which constitute the core of Polish literature was to define the author as an imagination phenomenon that seems to fill a research gap visible in Polish Schulz studies.
