Summary/Abstract: The author compares contemporary reflections on literary criticism with the critical discourse of the 1970s. Despite changes in the humanities as a broadly conceived field, and despite complications related to the circulation and identity of criticism, certain areas of the discussion still thrive. Where this is the case, contributors to the debate find themselves in disagreement. There is an opposition between the “ideologicality” represented by Kinga Dunin and Przemysław Czapliński, versus the “autonomy” proposed by Krzysztof Uniłowski and Joanna Orska. In other words, the dispute is between an attitude of involvement and disengagement.
