Summary/Abstract: In this paper author attempts to show some basic features of so-called text space of a text deprived both of its referentiality and subject of enunciation, on the example of several literary texts from the 1960s. The question is: in what ways (homology, analogy) can literature construct a space in which the world and Man interact – not on a bilogical level of existence in a physical world, of course, but a construction of „cultural“ meaning that men impose on the world around them? The strong equivalence between world and literary text enables us to see that the world can never be internalized in knowledge, in much similar way that disables the reader to usurp the textual meaning which always both surpasses and escapes us.
