Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to show the rules governing literary interpretation within the Internet forum. The author concentrates in particular on these conditions which enable the co-existence in the discussion at least two different types of discourses on literature, one of which is based on confessing the subjective reading experience and the other on the effort to negotiate a common interpretation within a scope of acceptable readings. The interaction on the forum has been shown as a trigger for some effective interpretative mechanisms leafing to ways of framing discussed texts in an interesting way. The author has also highlighted the risk of interpretative abuses characteristic of the forum discussions and described it as an ethical problem.
