Abstract
In this text, we attempt, probably for the first time in Poland, at the synthetic presentation of the artistic achievements and not only creative personality of Bert Jansch, sometimes referred to as “British Dylan” and highly appreciated by fellow folk musicians as well as by genuine rock stars, such as Jimmy Page or Neil Young. Jansch’s career as a truly unique folk singer/guitar player/composer/lyric writer shall be dicussed here in a wider analytical perspective, with vital references to the history of the British and American folk movement as well as, first of all, to the career of his transatlantic “counterpart”. Jansch’s inability to comfortably fit into any folk or folk-rock stereotypes with respect to music, lyrics or media personality shall also be stressed, in the same comparative context.
