STANISŁAW ROSIEK
The power of words
patronage
A collection of sketches from 1979-1989 on the relationship between literature and politics in the last years of communism. The author examines the language of opposition to that power. Analyzing the course of the strike in August 1980, the papal pilgrimage of 1987 and the street manifestations of the 1980s, he shows how the struggle against communism took place in the space of words, texts and messages.
