Summary/Abstract: The mode of literary reading Jan Błoński advocated and even often used to practise by himself was an ecstasy, that is, being enchanted and captured. And for the literary audience he – as a literary critic and scholar – left the door ajar to the garden of literary delights, especially in the years when landscape of literary research was set by the followers of structuralism. But he did not do in this matter so much as he could has done. This essay tries to answer why it was like that.
