This article tries to answer a pair of questions which are connected with the arrival of gender studies. One concerns the benefits and inspiring insights inherent in the concept of gender and the other problems and controversies that result from its adoption into the field of literary studies. First, the concept of gender is examined in relation to other critical terms from the toolbox of literary theory and cultural studies. A review of the main issues that have been opened up by the gender approach is followed by an balanced assessment of its achievements and shortcomings, its potential to inspire and to lead astray. The theoretical frame for this analysis is provided by the notion of a culture-conditioned object of reading. This concept as well as the distinction between the knowledge of literature and the conditioning of knowledge in literature are explained. Finally, the article offers a few suggestions how to preserve literature from the dangers of instrumentalization.

The article analyses consequences and benefits of the research perspective taken by literary anthropology which, as the authoress claims, should be perceived as a reformulation of literary studies rather than a narrowly conceived research method. The article discusses mutual relationships between literary studies and anthropology with the focus on the theories conceiving literature as the only available form of anthropology (Wolfgang Iser). The anthropological perspective in literary studies, the author claims, should be aimed at extracting literary anthropology from literature.
