Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses select problems of the creative process in the prose of Tadeusz Różewicz through the analysis of corrections, notes, and graphic forms found in the writer’s archives that are stored in the National Ossoliński Institute. On the basis of his “graphical writings,” which include mainly handwritten texts and griffonages, the author of this paper traces the history of transformations of such literary projects as “reconstruction attempts,” unrealized novelistic plans and “pages from a journal.” The main conclusions resulting from the description of Różewicz’s workshop concern the writer’s attitude to his own work, subjectivity in the text, and autobiographical plans.
