Abstracts

PL

The goal of the paper’s author is to identify the references to contemporary social reality that can be found in Schulz’s fiction. One of the reasons for which such an effort seems to make sense is the writer’s decision to join the Literary Collective “Przedmieście.” The author compares Schulz’s poetics and some motifs of his fiction with the program of that particular group of writers. She also analyzes the representations of social change in such stories as “Spring,” “The Street of Crocodiles,” and the cycle “Treatise on Tailor’s Dummies.” The most important to her are the cultural, political, and economic aspects of those representations. Besides, she points to some analogies between Schulz’s diagnoses and those presented by Oswald Spengler in The Decline of the West.
