Nowa humanistyka służebna
Servile new literary studies

Summary/Abstract: The paper is devoted to the theoretical foundation of the new humanities that have been recentlydeveloping in Poland. They result mainly from the need to surpass the theoretical and methodologi-cal horizon that was outlined by modern theory, especially by structuralism. The author argues thatthe more the new humanities attempt to revoke the modern theory, the more they are faithful to itspremises. By analyzing the latest works of Ryszard Nycz, one of the main founders of the theoreticalbases of the new humanities in Poland, the author shows i.a. how the main concepts of the maintheory (in this case – mainly the concept of sounding out) work at its behalf.
