Summary/Abstract: In the article I analyse different types of reading Henryk Sienkiewicz’s various historical characters at school. The reading of Sienkiewicz’s works is frequently too general and schematic, therefore I suggest an attempt to read this writer with the use of poststructural theories. In this text I am interested in ways of using modern narratology (I appeal to Hayden White) to the analysis of the narration in „Krzyżacy”.
