Rafał Malczewski and Wiadomości
|
Abstract |
In the interwar period, Rafał Malczewski (1892-1965) belonged to the elite of the Warsaw intelligentsia. He was successful as a painter, writer, and journalist, collaborating with the most prestigious magazines of the time. The author focuses on Malczewski's literary output in exile following the Second World War, after he had settled in Montreal in 1942. Relying primarily on Rafał Malczewski's correspondence with the poet Jan Lechoń and with the editor in chief of the London publication Wiadomości, the author shows the important role in Malczewski's life of literary work, which saved him from existential apathy and depression. He collaborated with Wiadomości, one of the most important Polish literary magazines published in exile after the war. The correspondence between Malczewski's partner of many years, Zofia Mikucka-Malczewska, and Mieczysław Grydzewski, describes the events surrounding the creation of the special issue of Wiadomości devoted to the writer.
