brulion was a Polish magazine which was published in Kraków from 1986 - 1999. Its editor in chief was Robert Tekieli. Originally a quarterly of the alternative and semi-legal Polish culture, it became known for respecting no taboos and producing scandals since its ninth issue, thus becoming the voice of the underground, anti-communist Poland. The generation of brulion writers was influenced mainly by American poets like Frank O'Hara (that is why they're often called o´harists), Allen Ginsberg or John Ashbery, translated by Pietr Sommer. Another translator, Stanisław Barańczak, introduced to Poland the poetry of Philip Larkin, W. H. Auden, Robert Frost and others. Brulion published among others an almanac named Przyszli barbarzyńci (Future barbarians; the title comes from a poem by Cavafy). Therefore the brulion generation is also known as barbarians.
