Architecture and palimpsest gardens in the work of Jean-Paul Goux  The novels of Jean-Paul Goux focus one after another on the different implications of the act of inhabiting – philosophical, existential, political and artistic implications. The subject arises for him in the eighties, which are the main turning point in his reflection and work. With his novel The Gardens of Morgante, published in 1989, he invents a new kind of storytelling, in which voices do not only answer one another, but also interact and quote one another. At first the reader feels lost in a text built on the principle of anamorphosis, using a distended syntax. He nevertheless reaches, now and again, a kind of bliss, as he realises that he is himself inhabiting a prose and an enclosed space in which Time has laid itself down.

Autor porównuje dwie edycje Snów i kamieni Magdaleny Tulli w kontekście Niewidzialnych miast Italo Calvino i urbanologii. Tekst poddaje analizie różnice między edycjami i stanowi próbę zrozumienia genezy modyfikacji powieści dokonanych przez autorkę. Zmiany te niekiedy ujawniają a niekiedy utrudniają dostrzeżenie źródeł myślenia powieściopisarki, czyli refleksji o miejskości. Sny i kamienie to powieść stanowiąca zapis doświadczenia modernistycznej transformacji dwóch miast: Warszawy i Mediolanu. Lektura Snów i kamieni sprawia trudności na wielu poziomach: po pierwsze, z powodu traktatowej stylizacji i przyjęcia przez narratora roli bezkrytycznego piewcy ładu urbanistycznego, po drugie zaś w obliczu zatartych śladów kontaminacji wielu doświadczeń: warszawskiego, mediolańskiego, czytelniczego, po trzecie z powodu braku w kulturze polskiej wcześniejszych tradycji tego typu tekstu prozatorskiego o mieście. Esej stanowi próbę rekonstrukcji możliwych kontekstów powieści i ich wpływów na zmiany wprowadzone przez autorkę do nowszych edycji.

The author offers a juxtaposition of two editions of Sny i kamienie [Dreams and Stones] by Magdalena Tulli in the context of Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities and urbanology. In the text he analyses the differences between the editions and discusses the origins of the modifications of the novel implemented by the writer. Those modifications sometimes facilitate while other times hinder the identification of the sources of her thinking, i.e., her reflection on urbanity. Sny i kamienie is a novel that constitutes a record of the experiences of the modernist transformation of two cities, Warsaw and Milan. The reading of Sny i kamienie is difficult at several levels: firstly, due to its treatise-like style and the narrator’s role of a seemingly uncritical eulogist of the urban planning order; secondly, due to a blurring of the traces of contaminations of various experiences: of Warsaw, of Milan, and that of a reader; and thirdly, due to a lack in Polish culture of any traditions of this type of prose text devoted to the city. The essay constitutes an attempt at reconstructing the possible contexts of the novel and how they influenced the alterations implemented by the writer in the more recent edition.
