Summary/Abstract: The article shows the universality of Dr. Jacek Kurek’s conception of teaching through rapture. Originally used in teaching history, this idea can be successfully adapted to lessons of the Polish language, literature and culture. Alicja Podstolec indicates three interpenetrating levels of didactic activity: unusual use of school space, building relationships with students and a congen ial atmosphere in classes, and various educational activities that give the teacher the opportunity to implement the principles of teaching through rapture (involving the use of music, literature, and painting to create a space for experience and emotions). Podstolec shows that the idea of experiencing rapture, as conducive to cognition, also works well in the space of Polish language lessons, but should never be a simple duplication of solutions and ideas of other educators.
