Dreams and Science

Summary/Abstract: Hellich examines the scholarly and literary work of Eliza Kącka (b. 1982) in the context of dream studies. Drawing on Ernest Hartmann’s theory of the dream as part of a continuum Hellich tackles Kącka’s output as a whole and points out interferences between two texts written at the same time, namely a literary historical monograph and a literary dream journal. Hellich suggests that Kącka’s dream journal reveals an implicit or “private: dimension of her scholarly work – a sort of “narrative about herself”. In the second part of the article Hellich reads the dream journal in terms of Kącka playing with the genreof autobiography, as well as an attempt to describe the subject of Kącka’s writing understood as a multilingual whole.
