Theorised archive, practised archive

The paper analyses Danuta Ulicka’s book "Doświadczanie czasu w przestrzeni archiwum" ("Experiencing Time in the Archives Space"). The volume is assessed as an outstanding research endeavour. To justify this stance, the reviewer points at the following values of the study: a superb discussion about so-called archival turn, presentation of Ulicka’s own archive research, masterly lecture on the history of modern Polish and European literary studies that smoothly shifts to the practice of literary theory, and stylistic charm of the content matter exposition.
