Created by artists living in a transitional period and formed in a peculiar “trans-era” mental space, this theatre was wrought from a hybrid substance that combined a Romantic and post-Romantic content with an avant-garde form. Being “simultaneously national and supra-national”, it appeared as a unique conceptual and artistic construct; a construct that was touted as the innovative Polish input into the reform of European theatre. Owing to the heterogeneity of its subject-matter, it was at times included into, and at other times excluded from the body of endeavours of an avant-garde nature; the correct categorization was until now made difficult by the conceptual template constructed around the dogma concerning the incompatibility of the two areas: the avant-garde and the so-called national duties. Seen in the perspective of modern-day research on the variegated nature of Modernism and on its inner tensions, however, this phenomenon may emerge as an interesting illustration of the synthesizing efforts of Modernism.}, type={Artykuł}, title={“In the Rhythm of the National Spirit and the Present Time”, or the Efforts of Modernism Versus the (Geo)Logical Core of the Polish Monumental Theatre}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/129512/PDF-MASTER/2023-RHS-05.pdf}, doi={10.24425/rhs.2023.147051}, keywords={Polish monumental theatre, Modernism, avant-garde, national style, stage design, mythopoeia, Stereo Poetics, Leon Schiller, Andrzej Pronaszko, Adam Mickiewicz, Artur Górski}, }
