Abstract

This article deals with the lyricism of the contemporary poet Marian Kisiel. Kisiel’s work is centred around the themes of death and passing. The author reads and interprets selected texts of Kisiel through the meaning of death in the Middle Ages. The article uses the previous findings of researchers Krzysztof Kłosiński and Katarzyna Niesporek-Klanowska. It shows a different type of religiosity from that of the Middle Ages. The lyrical protagonist in Kisiel’s poems is no longer certain that the world follows a divine order and plan, which is illustrated by an analysis of two poems from Kisiel’s volume C’est la vie (wiersze) [poems], published in 2014.
