Schulzowskie dubia
Journal Title: Schulz/Forum - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
The article is a series of short notes about intertextual mysteries in Bruno Schulz’s literary works. What is the origin of the enigmatic title Street of Crocodiles? Who exactly is the sceptic from Schulz’s essay on Aldous Huxley’s Music at Night – Thomas Huxley or maybe Henri Bouchet-Doumenq? Who is the inspiration for Schulz’s woman represented in his graphics – Manet or Edmond Bazire? Who did Stanisław Weingarten love except Schulz? Revelations presented by the authors are rather fragmentary, yet they can be a good starting point for developing them into longer stories.
