This is a review of Katarzyna Szopa’s latest book, Wybuch wyobraźni. Poezja Anny Świrszczyńskiej wobec reprodukcji życia społecznego (Katowice 2022). It summarizes Szopa’s academic achievements, contextualizes her research (feminist and Marxist criticism), and provides a brief description of the monograph’s contents. The paper analyzes the titular notion of reproduction of social life and imagination, which are referred to the ecstaticity category employed by Szopa, ultimately problematizing all three notions in Anna Świrszczyńska’s poetry.
