Ryszard Kapuscinski

In the first posthumous monograph on Ryszard Kapuscinski’s life and work, Beata Nowacka and Zygmunt Ziatek confront the mixed reception of the writer’s use of the Polish concept of literary reportage, located on the border between journalism and artistic prose, and identify this tension as the driving force behind Kapuscinski’s legacy.

In prima monografie postuma despre viata si opera lui Ryszard Kapuscinski, Beata Nowacka si Zygmunt Ziatek se confrunta cu receptarea mixta a utilizarii de catre scriitor a conceptului polonez de reportaj literar, situat la granita dintre jurnalism si proza artistica, si identifica aceasta tensiune ca motor forta din spatele mostenirii lui Kapuscinski.
