This paper concerns the matter of archetypal places in the poetry of the Polish-Tartar authors Selim Chazbijewicz and Musa Czachorowski. These poets’ work arose from the borderland experience and the meeting of cultures in the northeast of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. In their work we can observe deep historical roots, references to the nomadic Mongolian and Islamic Turkic cultures as well as an attempt to bridge the gap between the aesthetics of East and West. The question of archetypal places is one of the main keys to interpreting the poetry under discussion in this article.
