Summary/Abstract: Landscape, the leading theme of the 26th issue of the “Poznań Slavic Studies,” will always be an open category. By depicting the changing environment, the literary, cultural and linguistic landscape conveys a variety of frequently multi-layered and multi-textual states and processes: terrain, new elements of architecture, and street furniture emerging daily, with the changing city limits and borders of regions and countries. The landscapes, reconstructed by the authors of the works featured, connect with works of literature; they are originated by artists, institutions, or accidental creators. They include murals and graffiti, shop windows and signs advertising shops and studios, posters stuck up and torn down, and slap tags.
