Jean Echenoz’s text presents Victoria’s story who runs away from Paris, believing that she has killed her lover. Her straying (that embraces the form of a relative deterritorialization in a Deleuzian sense) lasts one year and it is built up geographically upon a descent (more or less symbolical) to the South of France and, after that, she comes back to Paris and encloses the spatial and textual curl. From a spatial point of view, she turns into a heterotopia (Foucault) every place where she is located, fact that reflects her incapability of constituting a personal, intimate space. The railway stations, the trains, the hotels, the improvised houses of those with no fixed abode are turning, according to Marc Augé’s terminology, into a « non-lieux » that excludes human being. Her vagrancy is characterized through a continuous flight from police and people and through a continuous decrease of her standard of living and dignity. It’s not about a quest of oneself, but about a loss of oneself. Urged by a strong feeling of culpability, her vagrancy is a self-punishment that comes to an end when the concerns of her problems disappear and she finds out that her lover is alive.

The phenomenon of vagrancy in Galicia constituted a serious social and economic problem, which is now neglected in historiography. The aim of the article is to start a discussion about the issues related to counteracting this phenomenon in Galicia in the era of autonomy. The subject is the analysis of legal regulations and the organisational and financial activity to reduce vagrancy undertaken by the authorities at that time. The study presents an outline of the regulations of the National Parliament in the scope of compulsory deportation of vagrants as well as the a scale of compulsory deportation of vagrants to gminas where they had the right of belonging and the expenses of the national budget. Institutional and organisational solutions were also discussed, starting from those reducing vagrancy and ending with those preventing it. In particular, the study addresses the issue of creation of houses of compulsory labour and reform centers, stations supplying in kind and employment agencies.

Zjawisko włóczęgostwa stanowiło w Galicji poważny problem społeczny i ekonomiczny, obecnie pomijany w historiografii. Celem artykułu jest otwarcie dyskusji nad problematyką przeciwdziałania temu zjawisku w Galicji w dobie autonomicznej. Przedmiotem jest analiza regulacji prawnych i działalności organizacyjno-finansowej podejmowanej przez ówczesne władze. Przybliżone zostały ustawy państwowe stanowiące normy dla krajowych aktów prawnych. Zarysowano regulacje Sejmu Krajowego w zakresie kosztów przymusowego wydalenia włóczęgów. Przedstawiona została skala przymusowego wydalania włóczęgów do gmin, w których posiadali prawo przynależności, oraz wydatki budżetu krajowego. Omówiono rozwiązania instytucjonalne i organizacyjne, poczynając od tych, które ograniczały włóczęgostwo, po te, które miały zapobiegać jego powstawaniu. W szczególności zasygnalizowany został problem dotyczący tworzenia domów pracy przymusowej i poprawczych, stacji zaopatrzenia w naturze oraz biur pośrednictwa pracy.

All along the nineteenth century in France, the vagabond becomes a main social and philosophical issue, for he is hunt down by scientists – vagrancy is conceived as a mental illness – and by jurists – different laws are created to criminalize the act. By establishing a link between this sudden obsession and the concern expressed by thinkers (Tocqueville, Comte, Bourget) that the society is dangerously blowing apart in separate individuals, this paper aims to analyze the manifestation of this conflict between society and vagabond in literature, among others Barrès’ Les Déracinés and Gide’s Nourritures terrestres.

The first short story in the volume Mondo and Other Stories serves as a model for the other stories in the collection in terms of the themes, the representation of the child’s portrait and the stylistic peculiarities of the text. More exactly, the story describes the world of “children seen as kings” (Brée, 1990: 100) where everything is dominated by goodness, purity, beauty and magic. As the reference to Sinbad the Sailor at the beginning of the book suggests, the story depicts a moving journey in pursuit of a dream. This is the journey of a child who, refusing the adult world from which he feels alienated, is in search of himself and the unknown. As an image of the viator child, can we consider Mondo a new type of vagabond? Why is he emblematic of the author’s fictional universe and of universal literature? By answering these questions, the purpose of the paper is to demonstrate the originality and uniqueness of Le Clézio’s writing.

In the very beginning of the 17th century appears a famous legend of the Wandering Jew named Ahasverus, who is characterised by some immutable features. Since then, the story has inspired various artists and despite the passage of time it keeps on arousing a great interest among both writers and readers. The main goal of the present study is to compare the collective protagonist from The Book of Abraham, a twentieth century novel by Marek Halter, to the legendary figure. Therefore, we present a vast and accurate picture of the interactions between the Jewish protagonists from Halter’s novel to the features typical of Ahasuerus.

In Fuir, Linda Lê features two characters – a vagrant nicknamed “Le Japonais” and the narrator, exiled to an unnamed Asian country – that seem to be re-cognized for what they are : lonely beings in search of an alter ego. Their improbable than astonishing meeting marks the beginning of a wandering both geographical and mental; the reader follows through the streets, alleys, driveways, sidepaths, pedestrian streets of indeterminate city symbolizing the maze of life whose meaning is to be decoded. The figure of the vagabond reflects the obsessions and concerns of the writer on his anguish of living. It also crystallizes its founding and formative reading, including the Romanian philosopher Emil Cioran and the Swedish writer Stig Dagerman who greatly influenced in the writing and the construction of her novel. Fuir is both a question about the absurdity of life and a metaphor for the condition of the exiled writer.

In addition to judicial and economic matters, the activities of the Permanent Council focused on widely understood social policy, namely: student recruitment to the Academy of Medicine in Cracow, the prevention of begging, vagrancy and escape of the peasants from Russia. Furthermore, the Permanent Council was acting in an area of education and issued the universals devoted to raising funds for the Commission of National Education. The actions of the Permanent Council were not always effective, because the local authorities and the nobility did not want to comply with regulations contained in the universals.

Obok materii sądowniczych i ekonomicznych działania Rady Nieustającej koncentrowały się wokół szeroko rozumianej polityki społecznej: rekrutacji studentów do Akademii Lekarskiej w Krakowie, zapobiegania żebractwu, włóczęgostwu i zbiegostwu chłopów z Rosji. Ponadto Rada Nieustająca działała w obszarze edukacji – wydawała uniwersały poświęcone gromadzeniu funduszy dla Komisji Edukacji Narodowej. Działania Rady Nieustającej nie zawsze były jednak skuteczne, bowiem władze miast i szlachta nie chciały podporządkować się nakazom zawartym w uniwersałach.
