Critical revised edition and translation by Jean Ward This book
presents a universal theory of autobiography, defined as a
"triangular" form of utterance involving three different stances.
It is a personal testimony to experiences lived through, a
confession of intimate inner experience and a challenge addressed
to the reader to engage in dialogue, enter into an argument or join
in a game. The stances of witness, confession and challenge are
always present, though usually one of them overshadows the other
two. Polish memoirs, diaries and letters, as well as novels of a
clearly personal character, are interpreted here in the context of
the most important autobiographical texts of European literature.
In the background, also, the historical events which have
powerfully stamped Polish culture in the last two centuries are
discreetly shown.
