„Nowa muzyczność”? Fonostylistyka awangardowa i jej współczesne kontynuacje
Streszczenie
The article presents detailed analyses of the irregular sound organisation of the two
wings of Polish interwar avant-garde poetry: futurism and the constructivist group
Awangarda Krakowska. The starting point of the research is the ‘musicality’ of symbolist
poetry, expanded and overcome by the avant-gardists. Members of both groups paid
special attention to the acoustics of poetry creatively employing devices such as paronomasia,
onomatopoeia, alliteration, anaphora etc. However, the futurist practice proved
more complicated, more diverse and less consistent (sometimes even dada-like). The
phonostylistics of Awangarda Krakowska, although still highly innovative, was more
‘disciplined’, logical and focused on motivating the metaphors by sounds. The experiments
of both groups were revived in the Polish post-war poetry (especially in the currents
such as poezja lingwistyczna and the present neolingwizm). It is usually impossible to
discriminate between the futurist and constructivist inspirations in the post-war works:
sound concepts typical of futurism tend to be used in a more logical, consistent and
metaphor-centred way. Hence, the author introduces the term “new musicality” referring
to the specific and still vivid poetics of sound, first employed by the Polish avantgardists
