The subject of the article is a reflection on the significance of the study Polish Peasant in Europe and America by W.I. Thomas and F. Znaniecki as a canonical text in the field of qualitative and, especially, biographical research. Referring to the criticism carried out by Herbert Blumer in 1939, it is an attempt to present to what extent the critical arguments remain valid nowadays and to what extent they can be verified by taking into account the contemporary state of the biographical method. The aim of the text is also to show the tension between the pioneering contribution of the authors to social research and the declarations contained in the Methodological Note and their implementation concerning the empirical material, namely the Memoirs of an Immigrant (Władek Wiśniewski) published in Volume III.
