Summary/Abstract: The author, reviewing Wojciech Hamerski’s book “Ironie romantyczne” (“Romantic Ironies”), focuses his attention on a detailed presentation of the book’s issues, though primarily on an analysis of validation of setting the varieties of ironies peculiar to the literature of Polish Romanticism apart. The reviewer points at unobtrusiveness of ironic spaces discovered by Hamerski in Mickiewicz’s, Kraszewski’s, and Lenartowicz’s creativity. In such unobtrusiveness he discerns the highest value of the study in question. The review also reconstructs the theoretical structure of the book that refers to Friedrich Schlegel’s aesthetic reflection.
