The article aims to analyse the dilogy Lunatyka podróż po Księżycu (A Sleepwalker’s Journey around the Moon) in terms of science fiction genre determinants present therein. Mikołajczuk verifies whether the stories about Serafin Boliński, considered as one of the very first Polish science fiction text, are legitimately treated as such. In this aspect a so-called embryonic stage of a foundational piece of work plays a crucial role as this novel is not a typical representative of science fiction. Many fictional and nonfictional elements of Lunatyka podróż po Księżycu may disqualify it from this genre. Presenting the origins of science fiction in the worldwide literature and its definition allows to indicate a moment when this genre appeared in the Polish history of literatury and how it evolved in due course. The second part of the article discusses crucial science fiction genre features that can be found in Tripplin’s dylogy. Based on them, Mikołajczuk strives to prove that Tripplin’s work ought to be included in Polish science fiction canon as it employs a number of distinguishable science fiction tropes.
