Summary/Abstract: Some remarks on the late Jan Błoński’s unique critical method. Błoński was an eminent literary scholar and critic, interested in contemporary literature, drama and culture. Through the close reading of literary texts he sought to uncover processes in which literary, cultural, social and political elements constitute the patterns of culture. His works not only anticipate contemporary themes and debates within Humanities, but also offer a distinctive method of describing transformations of literature and culture.
