Abstract

The poetic work of Zdzisław Dębicki is an example of writing which uses a range poetics, seen in the varied characteristic of space which shapes his writing. The author of Noce Bezsenne,  claimed as a minorum gentium writer, uses the poetic accomplishments of authors of his period, calling into being regions which fulfil the their own artistic subjectivity. Reading Dembicki's lyrics allows us to compare the intimate confidence of his lyrical ego with descriptions of empty space, bereft of richness. Space, as an epistemologic-ontologic category, is not only a tool which the poet uses to create an alluring picture; it is, above all,  an inducement to epistemic investigation.
