Summary/Abstract: The presented article is a text of the book by Sławomir Buryła entitled Tematy (nie)opisane. This monograph by a literary historian from Olsztyn focuses on analyzing three significant motifs appearing in publications about the Holocaust. As the title ‘topics (un)described,’ that is ones which still demand literary scholars’ detailed reflection, Buryła recognizes: the history of the Jewish ‘Kolumbowie’ – ‘young Jews and Poles of Jewish descent who during the war squared up to fight with the Nazi death machine’; ‘the New Eldorado’ – the literary theme of seizing Jewish possessions and Jewish gold; ‘the portrait of the torturer’ – showing the theme of the Nazi murderer in Polish prose written between 1939 and 1989.
