@misc{Zwolińska_Barbara_Sándor, author={Zwolińska, Barbara}, howpublished={online}, publisher={Zielona Góra: Oficyna Wydawnicza Uniwersytetu Zielonogórskiego}, language={pol}, abstract={In this article I present a literary record of impressions from a trip made by the twentieth century Hungarian writer Sándor Márai, collected in the volume titled "On a journey". I focus on the sketches in which he describes the experience of a contact between the European other and the exotic East. Márai visited Middle East countries, such as Egypt, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, as well as Turkey and Greece in 1925.}, abstract={He went there not just to satisfy his curiosity about the world, but also to answer the question whether Europe, rapidly changing during the interwar period, can benefit from the experience of the East, this cradle of humanity, tradition and faith. The East emerging from the pages of his sketches is permeated with sensuality, luxuriance of nature, color intensity and dynamism.}, abstract={The description of the world reveals differences of mentality, customs and culture. In the East, a traveler is looking for pure spirit, authenticity and naturalness, which in Europe are difficult to experience. But he quickly discovers that European tinsel and corruption have reached there as well.}, type={rozdział w książce}, title={Sándor Márai na Bliskim Wschodzie = Sándor Márai in the Middle East}, keywords={Márai, Sándor (właśc.
