The article interprets eschatological and apocalyptic literary works recognized as most representative for the discussed subject. Especially important in the context of the included poets seems to be the transfer of the text “Apokalipsa” (“The Apocalypse”) into a realm of internal experience, which indicates not only an individual, but also a phantasmal essence of religious impression. Tetmajer often employs “reported dreams”, the poet does not utilize the specific oneiric technique, imitating the process of natural dreaming. The visions mainly express terrifying images of nihilistic nothingness and a loss of establishment in the macrocosm. Through dreams about the annihilation of the Earth Tetmajer presents existential is-sues connected to the act of creation and the human – God relation. The motifs of “a destructive-constructive genesis” evoke a rich context of the Kabbalah tradition. Based on the analysed poems we can deduct that Tetmajer’s writing is dominated by the inverted reading of the Apocalypse, although, paradoxically, the author of Melancholy leaves some hope leading to a perspective of salvation.

“The Eighth Day of the Week”The Eighth Day of the Week is a short story by Marek Hłasko revolving around the topic of losing virginity. Literary scholars consider Hłasko as a representative of machismo; a masculine and male-centred narrator. This text analyses and deconstructs the short story defending it as a comprehensive record of misogynist culture written from the perspective of the main female protagonist and not the expression of misogyny of the author himself. The tools of discourse analysis and feminist philosophy applied to Hłasko’s text produce surprising results. Agnieszka – the main female protagonist of the short story – turns out to be a figure of non-conformity universalised by Hłasko, while the virginity and its loss become a part of female fate used by Hłasko as a motif to show the power of society over an individual. Meanwhile Agnieszka struggles for autonomy from domineering cultural patterns and gains it with the help of not so much barricades and spectacular gestures typical for male protagonists as wit, intelligence and trickery.
