Dziennik wojenny by Leopold Buczkowski. A challenge for a (young) editor

Summary/Abstract: The paper discussed Dziennik wojenny [War Journal] by Leopold Buczkowski. It posed a question concerning the origins of the text and the subsequent stages of its development. That is a challenging task since the original version of the work is not available. Additionally, the lack of the first version makes it difficult to examine the so-called material sphere of the journal. It can be reconstructed only based on the surviving manuscript version. The author of the paper also discussed Dziennik wojenny against the background of other early works by Buczkowski (Wertepy and Czarny potok, a collection of a few dozen poems), from the perspective of editorial and philological problems. He also demonstrated the need for a new edition of Dziennik wojenny, and indicated the errors committed in the existing edition.
