Practising the history of literary studies within the studies of particular authors
Translated by T Williams
pp. 135-142
Abstract
This article discusses ways of practising literary history in three selected examples of studies in the works of particular authors (studies in Różewicz, Haupt, and Dukaj). The author analyses practices of literary history in four dimensions: the acquisition of certain abilities by the practitioner, encounters with acknowledged masters of scholarship in literary history, the recognition of a certain literary history as one’s own, and the actualisation of various problems from earlier stages in that literary history, in particular interpretative contexts.
