Abstract

The article analyzes Arf, a drama by Maciej Szukiewicz and one of the least known pieces from the period of Young Poland. The author demonstrates that the world presented results from a complex textual form that oscillates between a fairy tale and a mystery play. These two genological forms constitute an interpretative lens through which the world of real events in the drama is read. The author uses Szukiewicz to illustrate how the framework of drama and the generic patterns bear upon the way in which the readers perceive the storyline.
