Summary/Abstract: In this article Kandziora comments on his book Poeta w labiryncie historii: Studia o pisarskich rolach Jerzego Ficowskiego [A Poet in the Labyrinth of History: Studies on Jerzy Ficowski’s Roles as a Writer]. He examines the fact that literary criticism may falsely be read as a traditional writer’s biography when it foregrounds research on the historical and social interactions that arise from the practice of writing in a given genre or on a given topic. Kandziora also discusses the role of archives in the production of his book, especially to reveal Ficowski’s figures and concepts of a writer and their influence on readers, evident in the letters they sent him.
