Summary/Abstract: The author of the article discusses a document from Czesław Miłosz’s archive (the collection of Beinecke Library): the notebook from 1934 including poems and prose that were either published, unfinished or left as a manuscript. Four manuscripts of Miłosz were critically discussed, in a detailed fashion, on the basis of exemplification: a manuscript of the poem Bramy arsenału (Arsenal Gates); an unfinished and unpublished manuscript of a catastrophic poem; manuscript of unprinted and abandoned prose work of a narrative character; and a manuscript of a dialogue that was unpublished as well, which constitutes an environmental self portrait of the Żagary poet group. As a conclusion, the author of the article expresses the opinion that the discussed notebook deserves an editorial presentation as he sketches out the preliminary project.
