Pomorska (1928-1986) a noted specialist in Slavic literature and literary theory, is best known for her pioneering work in applying Roman Jakobson's theories of poetics to prose narratives. This collection brings together her writings over two decades (some of them appearing in English for the first time). She treats a wide range of Slavic literary works, including those by Puskin, Tolstoi, Pasternak, Chekhov, and Solzhenitsyn, as well as examples from Polish and Ukrainian folklore.
