The article presents the critical reading of Anita Jarzyna’s Imaginauci. Pismo wyobraźni w poezji Bolesława Leśmiana, Józefa Czechowicza, Krzysztofa Kamila Baczyńskiego, Tadeusza Nowaka, the book devoted to the poets who share the belief in the creative power of words. Jarzyna uses the concept of the religious text to introduce the notion of the text of imagination. It allows her to treat imagination as an interpretative category and poetic theme. The author of the review sees Jarzyna’s book as an invaluable insight into each poet’s works but also as a unique “textual” treatment of imagination. At the same time the article opens the discussion about metaphorizing and creating of critical literary discourse.

Artykuł przybliża socjologiczne myślenie o przyszłości w warunkach realnego socjalizmu, analizując cztery futurologiczne propozycje teoretyczne, powstałe w Polsce w latach 70. Umieszczone są one w szerokim kontekście ówczesnych debat międzynarodowych, ograniczenia swobody (i wyobraźni) naukowej w monocentrycznym systemie decyzyjnym i oficjalnego dyskursu przywiązanego do marksistowskiej teorii postępu. Analiza tekstów futurologicznych Jana Szczepańskiego, Stefana Nowaka, Waldemara Rolbieckiego i Andrzeja Sicińskiego, powstałych w tak ograniczonych warunkach, ujawnia jednak ich oryginalne propozycje teoretyczne, pokazujące możliwe sposoby sensownego myślenia o przyszłości, redefiniujące pojmowanie historii, podejmujące problem indywidualnego i zbiorowego sprawstwa i granic jego przewidywalności. Tak odczytane, koncepcje te zyskują aktualność we współczesnych dyskusjach o antropocenie, w historycznych badaniach przyszłości czy w socjologii oczekiwań.

This article draws attention to the role of sociological forecasting under state socialism. It analyses four conceptualizations of the future developed in the Polish People’s Republic in the 1970s. These ideas are contextualised by transnational discourses on futurology, the constraints of science under the monocentric system of decision-making and ideological discourse officially confined to the Marxist theory of progress. These boundaries limited past prognoses. However, reflections on their function, prospective techniques and future orientation – which are exposed in futurological texts by Jan Szczepański, Stefan Nowak, Waldemar Rolbiecki and Andrzej Siciński – reveal a rethinking of modern concepts of history and temporality pointing far beyond the historical state socialist regime towards current redefinitions of temporal orders by the anthropocene and emerging research agendas such as historical future research, and the sociology of expectations.

The subject of this article is the Polish-German “double biography” of Countess Joanna von Schaffgotsch as portrayed in the novel Zink wird Gold by Georg Zivier and Hans Nowak and in Gustaw Morcinek’s Pokład Joanny. The comparative analysis focuses on the dominant narrative threads and the approaches to represent this historical figure, with the portrayal of the countess as the “Silesian Cinderella” existing as a point of reference in the public consciousness. The analyses conducted in this context lead to the conclusion that Nowak/Zivier’s biography of the countess generally corresponds to historical truth and is realistic in this sense, while the ideological aspect dominates in Morcinek’s narration. The two ‘biographies’ do not take into account the regional specificity of the Countess figure.
