Summary/Abstract: This article demonstrates how the notion of nineteenth-century cultural model [Polish, ‘dziewiętnastowieczność’] has acquired its ‘rights of citizenship’ in periodisation of Polish literature. It has namely become a formula that consolidates various cultural phases and currents. The notion in question stands for an opportunity to integrate things that have been losing their continuity and have been artificially separated in the course of didactic schematisations being employed.
