The paper aims at describing and interpreting works of polish‐french poet Bruno Kamiński‐Durocher demonstrating how strongly it is anchored in the author’s biography, space and the places he inhabits and tames. This analysis is structured with the notion of territory and what Deleuze and Guattari refer to as territorialisation, deterritorialisation and reter‐ ritorialisation. They are used to mark the Territory sought in vain by narrators and lyrical subjects of Durocher’s works. I follow the authors of What Is Philosophy in believing that “thinking takes place in the relationship of territory and the earth” in making this relation and how it reflects in works by Bronisław Kamiński, a focal point of my interest in this paper.

The paper aims at describing and interpreting in comparative approach the works of three Polish‐French writers: Anna Langfus, Bruno Durocher et Piotr Rawicz. I follow the authors of What Is Philosophy in believing that “thinking takes place in the relationship of territory and the earth”. Therefore, my analysis is structured with the Deleuzian notion of territory and demonstrates how memory of wartime is anchored in the geographical and imaginary spaces. On the one hand, it is an external dimension which depends on the epistemic decisions of the subject. With its well-defined borders, the space is represented as a refuge, an “at home”, or, on the contrary, it becomes hostile and threatening. On the other hand, the space is represented as a territory and results from the discovery of the animal nature of man. Combining autobiographical/testimonial approaches and spatial/territorial perspectives, the article demonstrates the spatial character of human experience and memory.

L’objectif de l’article est de questionner, dans une approche comparative, le lien entre la mémoire et l’espace dans les récits autobiographiques et testimoniaux d’Anna Langfus, Bruno Durocher et Piotr Rawicz. Dans leurs textes, l’espace s’érige en un des moyens de faire travailler la mémoire et aborder le passé. Il s’agit d’un côté d’une dimension extérieure, dépendante des décisions épistémiques du sujet parlant. Avec ses frontières bien délimitées, l’espace prend soit la forme d’un refuge, d’un « chez moi », soit, au contraire, il devient hostile et menaçant. La deuxième dimension n’opère ni frontières, ni topologies, mais résulte de la découverte de l’animalité de l’homme. Poussée à l’extrême, elle aboutit à une symbiose parfaite ou à une « indiscernabilité » entre le sujet et le lieu. Ainsi, combinant les approches autobiographiques/testimoniales et les perspectives spatiales/territoriales, l’article démontre-t-il le caractère spatial de l’expérience humaine et de la mémoire.

Bruno Durocher, born in Cracow as Bronislaw Kaminski, is rather unknown as a poet. His book of poems Le bras de l’homme, written in Mauthausen concentration camp, where the poet spent six years of war, reveal his traumatic experience of the Shoah. What Durocher asks about in this work is human resistance to the inhuman conditions: resistance of the body and of the soul. The paper attempts to analyse Durocher’s work and compare its two versions: French and Polish, focusing on the means Durocher uses to describe Nazi concentration camp universe and using notion of resistance as methodological tool.

Christian Gailly, a contemporary French writer, former musician, admits he is deeply inspired by jazz and its literary representations. This essay aims to highlight the specificity of his works, which, by the construction of time, space, characters and narration, have become an example of the literary genre called „jazz novel”.
