A Few Remarks on Leo Lipski’s “Proza wybrana” (“Selected Prose”) (Wołowiec 2022)

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the ethical aspects of issuing Leo Lipski’s volume “Proza wybrana” (“Selected Prose”) by Czarne Publishing House, prepared by Agnieszka Maciejowska, and in doing so it devotes attention to the issues of preserving the waiting period for launching Lipski’s intimate letters to Irena Lewulis. The letters in question, following the will of Łucja Gliksman, the writer’s friend and carer, were to have been revealed to readers 25 years after transferring them to the Archives of Polish Emigration, University Library of Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń. The letters appeared on the market earlier, in 2022. Thus, there emerges the question why the edition fails to comply with the will of the letter’s donor.
