This is a rejoinder and an attempt at clarification of some of the queries and critical points raised by the reviewers of 'The Cultural Theory of Literature: Key Concepts and Problems' by M. P. Markowski and R. Nycz (Universitas, Kraków 2006), a book which marks the completion of the first stage of the construction of a cultural theory of literature. While addressing the range of opinions expressed during the debate on that project, the article examines at greater length the points made by Henryk Markiewicz in his review article published by 'Ruch Literacki', 2007 (2).
