Book Shults' Dictionary
This is an automatically translated description
Compiled by the most prominent Polish Schultzologists of the early twenty-first century, the Schultz Dictionary covers all areas and branches of Schultzology - it deals not only with the life and work, but also with the legend of the brilliant writer from Drohobych, Bruno Schultz (1892-1942), and the reception of his work. Biographical analysis focused on the repetitive and typical is complemented by a search for one-off, specific events that do not create a legendary structure but give it an individual imprint. Along with explanations and comments on Schulz's linguistic features, the dictionary contains a scattering of slogans about the world he represented, as well as a register of higher semantic patterns, combining the literary and artistic dimensions of the same, albeit ambivalently represented by Schulz, reality. Literary references to Schulz, Schulz as a subject of poetry, and the cinematic and theatrical adventures of his work constitute a separate area. The 289 chapters, accompanied by abundant illustrative material, are at the same time marked by the individual particular and eccentric interests of Schulz's researchers and interpreters.
The publisher dedicates this publication to the 130th anniversary of the birth of the great writer and graphic artist and the 80th anniversary of his tragic death in the Shoah.
