This text is part of a book (in print) on the ways of portraying Venice in imagery and word. Upon the basis of a number of selected examples (including an essay by E. Bien kowska: 'Co mówia kamienie Wenecji?' (What Do the Stones of Venice Say?), a sketch by G. Simmel:'Venedig', a novel by J. Andruchowycz: 'Perwersja' (Perversion) the author demonstrates various possible strategies of representing the town in linguistic discourses. By appling the semiotic concepts of a town's Text (in order to designate a holistic corpus of individual texts about Venice), he accentuates the motifs that organise them, searches for their enrolment in narration schemes, and follows the game, conflict and tension involving contradictory likenesses of the town.
