“ … The archetypes are among the inalienable assets of every psyche. They form the “treasure in the realm of shadowy thoughts” of which Kant spoke, and of which we have ample evidence in the countless treasure motifs of mythology. An archetype is in no sense just an annoying prejudice; it becomes so only when it is in the wrong place. In themselves, archetypal images are among the highest values of the human psyche; they have peopled the heavens of all races from time immemorial. To discard them as valueless would be a distinct loss. Our task is not, therefore, to deny the archetype, but to dissolve the projections, in order to restore their contents to the individual who has involuntarily lost them by projecting them outside himself… .

— Carl Gustav Jung. Psychological Aspects Of The Mother. The Archetypes And The Collective Unconscious.

MONUMENTS

Our monuments
are ambiguous
they are shaped like a pit

our monuments
are shaped
like a tear

moles
built our monuments
under the earth
our monuments
are shaped like smoke
they go straight to heaven

1958

— Tadeusz Różewicz, Selected Poems, Wydawnictwo Literackie Kraków, 1994

‎”This is not to say that words can make a dictatorship collapse overnight. But words certainly can make a dictatorship collapse over time, as experience during the last two decades has shown. Totalitarian regimes are built on lies and can be damaged, even destroyed, when those lies are exposed. The greater and more detailed evidence that can be provided, the more damage the truth can do.”

awritersruminations:

The moral backbone of literature is about that whole question of memory. To my mind it seems clear that those who have no memory have the much greater chance to lead happy lives. But it is something you cannot possibly escape: your psychological make-up is such that you are inclined to look back over your shoulder. Memory, even if you repress it, will come back at you and it will shape your life. Without memories there wouldn’t be any writing: the specific weight an image or phrase needs to get across to the reader can only come from things remembered.

—W.G. Sebald

“All over the place, from the popular culture to the propaganda system, there is constant pressure to make people feel that they are helpless, that the only role they can have is to ratify decisions and to consume.”

“FAMILY PICTURES”, IN OTHER WORDS “TOWARDS THE ETERNITY”

rehearsal 28.02 and 4.03

We place THE CROSS

In the corner

behind the wardrobe.

It is becoming weird now.

Since it is really located in THE ROOM,

so not at its usual place (eg. in the church, at the cemetery).

Placed in the middle of the scene, “formally”

it wasn’t there in the room, although surrounded by walls and furniture -

It was at the scene, where everything can happen

and everything is explainable (…).

Everything happens in the room.

This one, not any other room –

Crucifixion, Last Supper,

and the military manoeuvre, war, Doomsday.

- Tadeusz Kantor, Writings 1975-1984
