Summary/Abstract: The article is a memoir about Stefan Themerson – a Polish writer, poet, filmmaker,publisher and composer (on the 30th anniversary of his death). Language,ethics and human dignity were the topics Themerson wrote about most. His significance for the development of the Polish experimental avant-garde film is enormous, yet his novels and „semantic poetry” have become a real field of collision between various semiotic systems, mainly as a result of his use of the collage poetics.
