    The Idea of Roman Brandstaetter’s Landscape in Italian Peregrinations

    Anna Rzymska

    Abstract

    Roman Brandstaetter mastered an original, comprehensive and consistent concept of landscape. During his several trips to Italy, Branstaetter developed a unique way of talking about his own feelings regarding space. Non-verbalised at first, these impressions were merely an intuition he acquired in the Holy Land. The Bible, certain trends of Jewish mysticism such as the idea of a mystical screen, pantheistic doctrine and most of all the idea of Szehina – the female aspect of God together with studies on the life of St. Francis of Assisi primarily influenced Brandstaetter’s concept of getting the feel of a place. The period of Italian travels inspired him to develop his own mature and original vision, which, at the same time, prepared a technique for writing a future novel Jesus of Nazareth.
