Summary/Abstract: The article contains an analysis of the linguistic exponents of the creation of the world presented in the radio drama by Krzysztof Bizio entitled Fotoplastykon. The starting point for the research has been fixed by the theoretical assumptions concerning the uniqueness of the radio as a mass medium. A radio drama cannot be chosen for analysis before defining the uniqueness of that genre as a subject of linguistic research (and it refers especially to lexical-semantic analyses). The radio drama in question comprises a cycle of five stories of the inhabitants of a tenant house in Szczecin in the years 1926–1999. The author concentrates on the linguistic means that create space, time, characters and sequence of events. Because of the uniqueness of the analysed material the role of the phonic elements in the creation of the presented world has been included in the description. The research suggests that the authors of radio dramas create plastic descriptions, which have an impact on the imaginations of their listeners, using numerous added elements; such elements are supposed to compensate for the lack of the vision.
