„Poniedziałek – Ireny”. Fantomowe Kresy Leo Lipskiego
“Monday – Irena’s name day” Leo Lipski’s Phantom Kresy Territories

Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to Leo Lipski’s short story, entitled “Miasteczko” [“A Small Town”], while its argument focuses on the traces and figures of subjectivity, yet those departing from the classical readings. Moreover, this text connects them with the issues of spectral transmission and prosthetic memory, visible in Lipski’s phantasmatic description of the eponymous small town. It is shown that the relation between experience (also a traumatic one), narration, and the linguistic structure of subjectivity can be rethought in Lipski’s works by means of memory studies, and Maria Török and Nicolas Abraham’s psychoanalytical theory.
