This article presents the socialist realistic works of Wanda Karczewska. The author proves that
in her verse the poet addressed the most important topics recommended by propaganda. She thus
makes an overview of socialist realistic motifs which are most frequently used in Karczewska’s poems.
She also shows how the poet viewed the current issues from a female perspective. For this purpose,
the author analyzes Karczewska’s works included in two volumes of poetry: Ziarno kiełkujące
[Sprouting Grain] from 1952 and Wiersze i poematy [Verses and Poems] from 1954.
