Abstract:
Despite the diversity of Modern Greek poetry available in Polish translation, Cavafy's work has eclipsed the achievements of other poets, just as the shadow of his lifelong translator, Zygmunt Kubiak, has inhibited other attempts only starting to surface in the twenty-first century. While external factors have determined Modern Greek anthologies in Poland, Cavafy translation has been mostly driven by personal passion. Apart from translation, this article reflects on various reasons why the Alexandrian's work should be so attractive to the Polish literary scene. Cavafy's seminal place within Polish literature stimulates further reflection on rewriting Cavafy in Poland.

Abstract:
Placing C. P. Cavafy among the modernists raises interesting questions. Which century can claim Cavafy? What does it mean to claim Cavafy for modernism? What space do we need to make for Cavafy in an approach to modernism that shapes and is shaped by his work? What re- and disorientations might that positioning require? Which nineteenth-century filiations does Cavafy carry over into his modernism? Is courage rather than contemporaneity a better guide in these orienteering exercises? This essay fleshes out these questions, asks a few more in the process, and attempts a set of triangulations and mediations between Cavafian and early twentieth-century words and worlds. This is not to trace influences or deep affinities but to deploy Cavafy as the “century's interlocutor,” in Paul's immodest but resonant phrase. Among the mediating or triangulated figures are F. T. Marinetti, E. M. Forster, T. S. Eliot, George Seferis, Ezra Pound, W. B. Yeats, Vernon Lee, and Pierre Louÿs, with cameo appearances by Bertolt Brecht, Arthur Rimbaud, and Eugène Marsan.

Abstract:
Abstract This article aims to highlight the crucial stages of C.P. Cavafy’s “history in education” through textbooks about literature from 1930 until today. More specifically, the research is constructed around two areas: a) the fundamental role of literary criticism and how it was related to the introduction of C.P. Cavafy in education in 1930, b) the degree of osmosis between History of Literature and History of Education. The methodological criteria of the research are drawn from different areas, such as: i) literary criticism, ii) history of education and educational policy, iii) history of textbook anthologies, and iv) poetry anthologies. a) During a course of eighty years, C. P. Cavafy is found in thirty-five anthologies, teachers’ textbooks and curricula, whereas the parallel reading recommendations reach a staggering eighty-seven; Ithaca is the most anthologised poem — twelve times. b) The positive opinions by the critics and the momentum of school anthologies that tried a holistic approach to poetry defined the inclusion of C. P. Cavafy in the school anthologies during the educational reform of 1929-1932. c) The position of Cavafy in the History of Modern Greek Literature by K. Th. Dimaras surpasses the efforts made by the critics of that time. Moreover, Linos Politis also holds a part of the restoration of C. P. Cavafy as far as the school textbooks are concerned, as his History of Modern Greek Literature, as well as his poetic anthology, determined the school literary canon from the days of the Restoration of Democracy until now.

Abstract:
Building upon C.P. Cavafy’s overall poetics with which the existing scholarship has dealt, this dissertation attempts to further define the Alexandrian poet’s art of making poetry by locating its ever-increasing global appeal in the notion of the “fragment” as a performance genre. The concept of the fragment repositions and redefines Cavafy’s poetry as a text that “does things” and as a result, it opens the gateway to performativity. Thus, through fragmentation Cavafy’s poems cease to be proper texts and are endowed with the potential of political acts. The interaction of poetry with music is indeed the key to understanding the fluidity of the Cavafean poetry and its subsequent undeniable appeal worldwide, which the interaction of poetry with music makes visible. Viewed as a sonorous envelope, a fantasy space, a psychotextual discourse or an activity based upon musico-textual mechanisms, music opens the way to being viewed as a socio-cultural site of subjectivity formation that ignores all kinds of boundaries, both temporal and spatial. This dissertation thus argues for a sui generis Cavafean poetics of fragmentation in both thematic and stylistic terms that allows for ample experimentation and freedom not only on the poet’s behalf, but also in terms of its reception. Moreover, this project further tests the validity of such an argument at the intersection of poetry and music when one fuses into another in the form of the art song. By scrutinizing how Cavafy’s poetry has been put into music by various composers by means of a variety of approaches, including music analysis (e.g., melodic, harmonic, textural, semiotic, music psychology), psychoanalysis, and cultural theory, it aims to shape a “map” of various musical receptions of such a highly fragmented oeuvre as the Cavafean. To this end, it focuses on several case studies of music renditions ranging from that of the composer Dimitri Mitropoulos during the days of High Modernism (publicly presented in 1927 in Athens, Greece) through Peter Schat’s For Lenny at 70 (for tenor and piano, 1988), Lou Harrison’s Scenes from Cavafy (a work composed for gamelan orchestra, 1992), Yannis Papaioannou’s The Funeral of Sarpedon (2000), Ned Rorem’s Another Sleep: Waiting for the Barbarians (2002) and John Tavener’s Tribute to Cavafy (first performed in 2005 at Birmingham, UK), to the contemporary composer Kostas Rekleitis’ Cavafy Cycle (2012). By entering the deep, almost invisible territories where one art fuses with another, this thesis aspires to contribute to a better understanding of such a complex poetry as the Cavafean one, by offering a fresh perspective and mode of investigation onto an overlooked dimension of Cavafy’s work. It thus ultimately calls for a renewed interest for further interdisciplinary explorations, not only in the reception of Cavafy in music, but also of Cavafy in more complex artistic settings and forms, especially, that of performance.

Abstract:
Cette thèse étudie le développement de l’érotisme dans la poésie de Constantin Cavafy. Plus qu’un simple thème, l’érotisme est en effet au cœur du processus démiurgique et constitue le fil rouge de l’œuvre : en d’autres termes, c’est pour et par l’érotisme que Cavafy accède à son art. À partir d’un corpus large ne se limitant pas aux seules pièces canoniques, cette enquête s’articule autour d’une logique diachronique et thématique complétée par une approche volontiers comparatiste envisageant l’érotisme cavafien dans le cadre de l’histoire littéraire grecque et européenne. Le découpage chronologique suivi répond au caractère tripartite de l’itinéraire du poète. Après un chapitre préliminaire consacré aux prémices et à l’émergence du thème de l’amour dans les compositions antérieures à 1891, une première partie, couvrant la période de formation du poète, s’attache d’abord à identifier les sources de l’érotisme. Cette étape initiale, qu’accompagne une esthétique du détour, conduit l’Alexandrin à une période de crise, « the great crisis of libidinousness », qui ne trouvera de résolution que dans la légitimation et la mise en œuvre littéraire de l’érotisme. Une troisième partie, « L’amour qui ose dire son nom », considère enfin la période de la maturité : l’érotisme libéré est érigé en système, indissociable désormais des notions de modernité et de transgression
The dissertation examines the growth of eroticism in Constantin Cavafy’s poetry. Beyond its mere thematic expression, eroticism turns out to be the core of the demiurgic process and forms the mainstay of his writings: in other words, it is on behalf of eroticism and on account of it that Cavafy fleshes out his art. Grounded on a wide array of pieces that include the canonical poems, this inquiry hinges on a diachronic as well as a thematic examination to which are appended elements of comparative study looking into cavafian eroticism in the wider context of European and Greek literary history. The chronological approach complies with the threefold dimension in the growth of the poet’s mind. Following an introductory chapter devoted to the very beginnings and to the emergence of love as a theme in compositions prior to 1891, the first part of the study, dealing with the poet’s formative years, focuses primarily on uncovering the sources of eroticism. This opening period, marked by an aesthetics of avoidance, leads to a moment of crisis for the Alexandrine, “the great crisis of libidinousness”, which will be soothed through the legitimate use of eroticism and its literary elaboration. The third part of the study, “The love that dare speak its name”, deals with the mature writings: eroticism becomes a system, now necessarily linked to modernity and transgression

Abstract:
Cavafy has been the key inspiration of a line of younger – and very different – Greek writers who employ homoerotic modes. This thesis, covering the years 1905-2010, concentrates on some major examples (Sikelianos, Lapathiotes, Ritsos, Ioannou, Christianopoulos) chosen for their variety of responses to the homoerotic Cavafy. In aggregate these writers, along with Cavafy himself, can be considered a ‘regiment’: the ‘Regiment of Pleasure’, in Cavafy’s term. In presenting these writers in this fashion, I attempt to illuminate both the work of the successors and that of their influential precursor. In the three broad yet selective chapters that constitute the main body of my thesis, I seek to display the culture-specific elements of the Modern Greek contribution to homoerotic writing, as these can be extrapolated from a critical examination of the poetic legacy of Cavafy, within three themes: Chapter 1, ‘The Appropriation of Ancient Greek Eros’, delineates the ways in which modern Greek homoerotic writing exploits Greek Love in Plato (Symposium and Phaedrus) and the Palatine Anthology. Chapter 2, ‘Homoeroticism and the Notion of Sin’, approaches literary homoeroticism as associated with sinfulness and confession. Chapter 3, ‘The Favoured Class and Games of Class- Crossing’, examines literary homoeroticism as connected to class barriers. The writers listed above appear as appropriate in each chapter. Always in relation with the analysis of the discussed writings, I draw as appropriate on queer theory, theories about tradition and reception, and the writers’ historical and social context. My aim is to show that different aspects of Cavafy’s queer radicalism have been exploited by a diverse range of Greek successors whose work has not hitherto been fully discussed, either in itself or in relation to Cavafy. Seeing his successors as a cluster is something new, as it also is the interpretative discussion of both poetry and prose in this direction.

Abstract:
Dans quelle mesure la poesie peut avoir une pretention referentielle,c'est-a-dire une pretention a porter sur quelque chose d'extra-linguistique? quelle est la place du "reel" dans la structure narrative de la parole poetique eu egard a la tendance inherente a cette derniere a trenscender la "realite" du monde? comment peuton dire que la poesie a acces au monde et au "reel" malgre son deport fictionnel, et par la meme une reference qui permette au discours poetique d'operer une configuration langagiere de l'experience temporelle de l'homme? la reconnaissance de la fonction "referentielle" de la poesie, ainsi que le montre c. Cavafy, doit etre inseparable de celle de son apport createur. C'est par la creation de son mythos que la poesie, mettant initialement la realite a distance, engendre une histoire qui se veut une representation imitee et surelevee de la vie humaine. La mimesis, a l'exemple de la tragedie, enseigne a voir la vie humaine comme ce que le mythos exhibe; la mimesis constitue la dimension "denotative" du mythos; elle tient ensemble la priximite a la realite humaine et la distance fictionnelle. Grace a cette distance la mimesis, purifiant le reel de son accidentalite, est restitution de l'humain non seulement selon l'essentiel mais en plus grand et en plus noble. D'ou la difference entre poesie et historiographie: si la premiere depeint le reel selon son essentialite, la seconde, ainsi que le souligne aristote, reste dans le contingent et l'accidentel. Seule une humeur mythisee peut ouvrir et decouvrir le monde parce que c'est une humeur qui a atteint la sagesse profonde de l'humanite. Sagesse qui,dans le cas de la tragedie,est acquise par une plongee simulee du mythos dans la legende. Cavafy,quant a lui,simulant une plongee de son mythos dans l'histoire de la grece, elargit le champ temporel de son experience personnelle et entre dans le champ inter-subjectif de l'experience humaine
To what extent can poetry claim tobe referential,thatis,claim to something beyond language?how important is "reality"in the narrative structure of poetic discourse considering its inherent tendency to trenscend the "reality" of the world?how can one state thate poetry has an access to the world and to "reality"in spite of its fictional drift and,thus,a reference through which poetic discourse might,by the means of words, account for man's temporal experience? acknowledging the "referential" function of poetry-as shown by c. Cavafis-should only be seen in relation to its creative contribution. In creating its mythos,poetry,initially setting reality at a distance, engenders a history which is meant both to imitate and uplift human life. Mimesis,as tragedy,teaches one how to look upon human life as what mythos stages in tobe:mimesis is the "denotative" dimension of mythos;it comprehends closeness to human reality and fictional distance. Thanks to the batter,mimesis,which purifies reality by removing fortuitus elements,still gives an image of man in his essence dut a greater and nobler one. Hence the difference between poetry and historiography:whereas the former depicts reality in terms of its essentiality,the latter,as aristotle insists,remains within the contingent and the accidental. Only mythicized mood can uncooer and doscover the world because this mood has reached the deeper wisdom of mankind whicls wisdom,in tragedy, is abtained by mreans of simulated descent of mythos into legend. Likewise, cavafis,simulating a descent of his mythos into the history of greece,widens the temporal field of his personal experience and enters the inter-subjective field of human experience

Le poète grec - membre de la communauté grecque d’Alexandrie, en Égypte – Constantin Cavafy, passionné d’histoire, puisa, une grande partie, des thèmes de son oeuvre dans le passé du monde gréco-romain. Le but de notre travail est comprendre les rapports entre les poèmes historiques de Cavafy et l’histoire ancienne ; ce qui nous entraine à réfléchir aux rapports entre l’histoire et la poésie, en tant que domaines de l’expérience humaine. Considérant que l’historiographie de l’Antiquité apercevait la nature humaine comme immutable, l’histoire serait un grand répertoire d’exemples de jadis. Grâce aux récits des expériences d’antan, on pourrait acquérir d’inestimables connaissances sur les passions, les faiblesses et les vicissitudes de la condition humaine. Or, Cavafy, imprégné de la lecture d’anciens textes grecs, renoua avec cette tradition historiographique, c’est-à-dire du ktema ou de l’historia magistra viae. En élevant certains épisodes du passé au statut de poème, Cavafy mit l’art de sa poésie au profit de l’histoire. L’oeuvre cavafienne universalise le particulier d’un événement historique, donc elle fait de l’histoire une source de connaissance et de sagesse. Le parcours de notre recherche est divisé en trois parties. Dans la première, nous essayerons de comprendre l’Antiquité dans l’oeuvre de Cavafy, par rapport à ce que nous dénommons de monde gréco-romain. Dans la deuxième partie, nous aborderons certains aspects de l’histoire du peuple grec moderne et de la colonie grecque d’Alexandrie, mettant en relief les possibles intersections entre Cavafy et son temps. Dans la troisième parte, nous nous occuperons plus spécifiquement des rapports entre l’histoire et la poésie chez Cavafy, à partir de l’analyse de certains poèmes.
O poeta grego – membro da comunidade grega de Alexandria, no Egito – Konstandinos Kavafis, apaixonado por História, retirou, uma grande parte, dos temas de sua obra do passado do mundo greco-romano. O objetivo de nosso trabalho é compreender as relações entre os poemas históricos de Kavafis e a História antiga; o que nos leva a refletir sobre as relações entre História e poesia, enquanto domínios da experiência humana. Considerando que a historiografia da Antiguidade percebia a natureza humana como imutável, a História seria, então, um grande repertório de exemplos de outrora. Por meio dos relatos das experiências pretéritas, poder-se-ia adquirir inestimáveis conhecimentos sobre as paixões, as fraquezas e as vicissitudes da condição humana. Ora, Kavafis, impregnado da leitura dos antigos textos gregos, reatou com essa antiga tradição historiográfica, ou seja, a do ktema ou da historia magistra vitae. Ao elevar alguns episódios do passado ao status de poema, Kavafis colocou a arte em benefício da História. A obra kavafiana universaliza o particular de um acontecimento histórico, logo, ela faz da História uma fonte de conhecimento e de sabedoria. O percurso de nossa pesquisa está dividido em três partes. Primeiramente, tentaremos compreender a Antiguidade na obra de Kavafis, em relação ao que denominamos de mundo greco-romano. Na segunda parte, abordaremos certos aspectos da história do povo grego moderno e da colônia grega de Alexandria, sublinhando as possíveis interseções entre Kavafis e seu tempo. Na terceira parte, nos ocuparemos, mais especificamente, das relações entre a História e a poesia em Kavafis, a partir da análise de alguns poemas.

Abstract:
Il y a une abondance de textes de cavafy qui se rattachent, directement ou indirectement, au probleme religieux, et qui furent ecrits pendant les annees de formation du poete. Un premier groupe de ces textes reunit des poemes et des articles dans lesquels cavafy, fidele a l'enseignement historique de paparrigopoulos, assume le role d'apologiste de byzance, notamment face a ses detracteurs occidentaux: il s'agit d'un ensemble de titres classes sous la rubrique thematique "jours byzantins", d'un article sur les poetes byzantins, et du poeme "a l'eglise". Un deuxieme groupe est forme des poemes classes sous une autre rubrique thematique, "les debuts du christianisme", qui temoignent de l'interet que portait cavafy aux courants philosophiques et religieux de cette epoque historique et qui refletent en meme temps les preoccupations personnelles du poete dans ce domaine. A ce groupe appartient aussi un poeme qui nous interesse surtout pour le role qu'il joue dans le developpement de la poesie erotique cavafienne: "ionique". Les textes qui composent le troisieme groupe se placent principalement sous le signe de l'esoterisme litteraire et artistique de l'europe du xixe siecle declinant. Alors que la presence de paparrigopoulos se fait constamment ressentir dans les textes portant sur byzance, la figure qui domine ici est celle de baudelaire. Les liens de cavafy avec le mouvement esoterique europeen en general et avec le symbolisme en particulier sont attestes par ses nombreuses lectures dans ce domaine, et certains motifs et themes chers aux ecrivains et artistes symbolistes , les "correspondances", la question du progres, de la mort, et de l'au-dela, le duel entre la tentation et la magie, et l'antithese entre connais- sance et foi , se retrouvent dans plusieurs de ses ecrits en vers et en prose. Les frontieres entre ces trois categories sont mouvantes; cependant, du labyrinthe de themes se degage l'image assez nette de deux carrefours principaux: au premier, ou se rencontrent et parfois se confondent histoire et esthetique byzantines, nous voyons s'opposer paparrigopoulos et gibbon; au second, ou se rencontrent et parfois se confondent spiritualite et esthetique esoteriques, nous percevons un conflit entre gibbon et baudelaire. Nous pouvons juger du chemin parcouru par cavafy pendant ses annees de formation en determinant dans quelle mesure chacun des participants a cette lutte interne en sort vainqueur ou vaincu
There is an abundance of texts of cavafy associated either directly or indirectly with the religious question which were written during the poet's early years. A first group of such texts includes poems and articles in which cavafy, faithful to the historical teaching of paparrigopulos, assumes the role of apologist for byzantium, especially vis-a-vis its detractors in the west: a number of titles classed under the thematic heading "byzantine days", an article on the byzantine poets, and the poem "in church". A second group consists of poems classed under a different thematic heading, "the beginnings of christianity", poems which attest to the poet's interest in the philosophical and religious currents of this historical period and which at the same time reflect his personal preoccupations in this area. To this group also belongs a poem which interests us above all for its role in the development of cavafy's erotic poetry: "ionic". The texts which make up the third group derive from the literary and artistic "esoterism" of late nineteenth-century europe. While the presence of paparrigopoulos can be constantly felt in the texts pertaining to byzantium, the figure which dominates here is that of baudelaire. The ties between cavafy and the european "esoteric" movement in general and symbolism in particular are attested by his many readings in this area, and certain motifs and themes popular among symbolist writers and artists , the phenomenon of "corres- pondances", the question of progress, death, and the afterlife, the duel between temptation and magic, and the opposition between knowledge and faith , can be found in many of his writings in verse and in prose. The boundaries between these cate- gories are not fixed; however, out of the labyrinth of themes there emerges the rather clear image of two crossroads. At the first one, where byzantine history and esthetics meet and sometimes merge, we observe a confrontation between paparrigopoulos and gibbon; at the second, where "esoteric" spirituality and esthetics meet and sometimes merge, we sense a conflict between gibbon and baudelaire. We may judge the distance covered by cavafy during his early years by determinig to what degree each of the participants in this internal struggle comes out victor or vanquished
