Timeline
The left-wing poet and literary critic Ignacy Fik (1904–1942), in his history of Polish literature during the Interbellum, will reserve a special mention for the "horrific poems of Pietrkiewicz", published in the "Prosto z mostu" magazine, in which the "national myth" receives its "racist" incarnation.
Jerzy Pietrkiewicz or Peterkiewicz (29 September 1916 – 26 October 2007) was a Polish poet, novelist, translator, and literary critic who spent much of his life in British exile.
He was born in Fabianki, Poland, the son of a well-read peasant, Jan Pietrkiewicz, and a woman of aristocratic descent, Antonina Politowska, who was about fifty years old at his birth.
Both his parents died while he was still a child, his mother of cancer when he was twelve, and his father two years later.
He attended the Jan Długosz Catholic School in Włocławek, and then went to Warsaw to study journalism.
His first published writing was poetry in Okolica Poetów in 1934.
He also contributed articles to ultra-nationalist newspapers.
His Wiersze o dzieciństwie ("Poems about Childhood"; 1935) did not receive any accolades from the critics in general; Kazimierz Andrzej Jaworski writing in the literary journal Kamena observed that the compositions included in the collection "bore the reader with their monotony", and if they have any value "it is only apparent to the author himself, for they ring hollow to others".
During World War II he fled first to France and then to Britain.
On his arrival he knew no English.
He attended the University of St Andrews, earning by 1944 a master's degree in English literature, and in 1948 he completed a doctorate at King's College London, where he would go on to teach Polish language and literature.
He began writing novels in English in 1953, reserving Polish for his poetical works.
His novels were successful, and led to a friendship with Muriel Spark.
On the accession of Pope John Paul II, Pietrkiewicz translated his poems into English, and as a result his own work became known in Poland.
He was awarded the Prize of the Ministry of Culture and Art in 1987.
Both marriages ended in divorce.
