"Pokora" is a play by the Polish writer, painter, and philosopher Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz, commonly known as Witkacy. Written in 1923, this work is one of Witkacy's many contributions to the realm of avant-garde literature and is a part of his larger oeuvre that explores the complexities of human consciousness and the absurdities of existence. Witkacy is renowned for his unique style that often combines elements of existentialism, surrealism, and the grotesque.

The play "Pokora," which translates to "Humility" in English, delves into themes of individuality, societal norms, and the search for authentic self-expression amidst the pressures of conformism. It reflects Witkacy's fascination with the crisis of modernity and the impact of industrialization and technological progress on the human psyche and traditional ways of life.

Set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing post-World War I Europe, "Pokora" is characteristic of Witkacy's dramatic works, which are marked by a non-linear narrative, a disjointed timeline, and a structure that defies conventional theatrical norms. His plays are known for their experimental techniques, including the use of unconventional dialogue and the blurring of the boundaries between reality and illusion.

As with many of Witkacy's plays, "Pokora" was not widely recognized or understood during his lifetime. However, the play has gained critical attention posthumously, with scholars and theater practitioners appreciating its innovative approach to dramaturgy and its philosophical depth. Witkacy's influence can be seen in the works of later playwrights and in the development of absurdist theater.

"Pokora" remains an important piece in the study of early 20th-century avant-garde literature and theater, offering insight into the artistic and intellectual currents of the interwar period in Poland and beyond. It stands as a testament to Witkacy's enduring legacy as a thinker and artist who sought to challenge and redefine the boundaries of artistic expression.
