Summary/Abstract: Łebkowska examines the notion of humanistic thought – its role and its roots – as it functions today. She focuses on its advantages, highlighting especially the self-critical aspect, but at the same time looking for the reasons behind the humanities’ current situation. She also points out phenomena that have been neglected in this selfreferential stance. In her conclusion Łebkowska touches on the problematic relationship between the objects of research and the ‘usefulness,’ ‘useability’ and the ‘responsibilities’ of the humanities.
