Lem put into words the paradox of resuscitation form atoms in the book 'Dialogues' (1957), paradox unsolved untill today. There is followig problem : is X * an alive copy of dead person X - who has identical atomic structure - the same as X? The issue has already been considered in the past although in crude version by Lucretius. Lem's arguments against the possiblity of resuscitacion only intesify the power of paradox. It also appears with reference to cloning of human beings. Lem objected to such process. Identity of reproduced zygote is unclear and therefore reasonable resistance arises to human clonnig.

The issue of 'existence of the nonentity' in Stanislaw Lem's discourse is usually connected with the description of an ontic quality of 'literature'; secretly, it also refers to 'the world'. First, the notion of 'retrognosis' is discussed, as a 'symptom', in author's opinion, of Lem's hidden weaknesses: it appears in the text on Borges and instantly disappears mysteriously. It is a 'subversive' notion, by necessity undermining the certainty of data of a perfect tense, thus making any forecasting unfeasible. Next, two 'neantological' short stories from Cyberiada collection: 'Jak ocalal swiat' (How the world was saved) and 'Wyprawa trzecia, czyli smoki prawdopodobienstwa' (Trek Three or Dragons of probability) are analysed.
