Abstract
Summary The paper characterizes the poetics of the Sorbian poet Róža Domašcyna (*1951). Domašcyna creates diverse methods of metamorphosis in her numerous lyrical works. Different concepts of metamorphosis from Ovid to Goethe as well as concepts of Chinese philosophy are discussed. The novelty of Domašcyna’s concept lies in her language, particularly in the mutation of sound and transformation of all reality. The paper uses “parkfiguren,” a speech composition created together with the composer Harald Muenz, as an example to analyze Domašcyna’s new metamorphosis. It is precisely her extremely uncertain take on metamorphosis that makes this poetic language the language of our present.
