Lustra Komendanta
The Komendant’s Mirrors

Summary/Abstract: This text reports on the discovery, which was made in Tadeusz Komendant’s apart- ment, of a significant part of the original manuscripts that were included in his book Lustro i kamień... [The Mirror and the Stone...], and then answers the question of what consequences this find has for the interpretation of the aforementioned book. The author also points out to the correlations between Lustro i kamień... and Władze dyskursu [The Power of Discourse] by Komendant and interprets the crypto-autobio- graphical parts of the latter. In the last part, he generalizes the observations acquired from theseerpretations and uses them while reflecting on the idea of the archive and the desired form of making Komendant’s heritage accessible.
