Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article Feminine Voice of Men. Wincenty Kosiakiewicz’s “Z dzienniczkakobiety” [From the Diary of a Woman] is to examine how the male author imitates the woman’spersonal diary. The analysis and interpretation of Z dzienniczka kobiety illustrate the problemof creating female figures and imitating the femininity of their writing by the authors at the turnof the centuries. Gabriela Zapolska’s Z pamiętników młodej mężatki [From the Diaries of a YoungMarried Woman], used as a counterpoint, allows for gaining a broader, two-sex perspective on the issueof femininity of writing and for presenting the differences between the manners in which women’spersonal diaries are stylized by male and female authors. This paper seeks to answer the questionabout the reasons and consequences of adopting a female perspective in the text.
