- Title
Ciało (nie)ludzkie Motyw cielesności w tomiku Anny Adamowicz Animalia.

MICKIEWICZ, ADRIANA JOANNA
- Abstract
The aim of this article is to analyse the motif of corporeality in the poetic book Animalia by a young Polish poet Anna Adamowicz. The methodology implemented was elaborated based on zoocriticism, a subdiscipline of Animal Studies, and lead to advancing the thesis that Adamowicz's poems are a voice of dissent against treating nonhuman corporeality as inferior and reducing it to worthless, passive "meat". In her poetry, Adamowicz shatters the anthropocentric hierarchy of species and shows the tragic consequences of human activity for the entirety of animal world. Another theme worth underscoring and pointing to in her poetry is climate change, the effects of which are particularly acute in the world of nonhuman animals.
