Dobra krew. Henryk Sienkiewicz między szlacheckim protorasizmem stanowym a rasizmem klasowym (trylogia i powieści współczesne) - Ryś Paweł Wiktor - książka

Opis

The monograph focuses on the issue of racialized social divisions in six novels by Henryk Sienkiewicz. These include his "historical" Trilogy: "With Fire and Sword" (1884), "The Deluge" (1886), and "Sir Michael" (1888), along with the so-called "contemporary trilogy": "Without Dogma" (1890), "The Polaniecki Family" (1895), and "Whirpools" (1910). Analyzing these works through the lens of the interplay between class and "race" reveals that, while Sienkiewicz reconstructed the proto-racism of the noble class, he simultaneously did not escape the influence of class-based racism. This nuanced study illuminates the complex layers of societal divisions present in his narratives.
