Summary/Abstract: Proposed is a different-than-traditional reading of the poem Sofijówka by Polish Enlightenment-age poet Stanisław Trembecki. Unlike in the existing attempts, the horizon for considerations is neither a referentiality of this descriptive poem nor its intertextuality sphere but instead, the subjectivity issue. Its complications – analysed in a style which might be referred to as deconstructionist – lead to certain paradoxes as-yet very rarely observed and described in reference to Polish Enlightenment literature.
