- Title
Bezgłos (o rewersach ciszy w teatrze pamięci).
- Authors
Próchniak, Paweł
- Abstract
A reverse is a side, the opposite, but (in Polish) also an IOU of sorts, evidence of a promise to pay back a debt. A word is the reverse of silence but also a reverse of that, which leaves a lump in the throat and renders us speechless. The word can be an obligation, including one that cannot be lived up to. The author attempts to reveal and vocalize thus comprehended reverses – well aware of the fact that actually he would like demonstrate the reverse of silence. The sketch discusses reflections dealing with the status, form, and semiotic potential of handwritten accounts of Shoah, for more than forty years part of the Jan Manugiewicz home archive and today in the possession of the “Brama Grodzka – Teatr NN†Centre in Lublin. An integral part of the article consists of reproductions of the accounts and their reverse sides.
