Short description:	This course treats a poem as a short comment on a current cultural, social or psychological phenomenon. Identification of a specific problem of our times will serve as a start point to discuss one poem. Then we will move on to talk about works and life of the author. We will focus on the 19th and 20th Anglo-Saxon, Russian and Polish poetry, trying to guess e.g. how Wladyslaw Broniewski perceives children in the context of war, how Zuzanna Gincznka would comment Brexit, Elisabeth Bishop - the Warsaw Uprising, Vladimir Mayakovsky - hunting for fashion or Fernando Pessoa - travelling in campers.
