Summary/Abstract: In the autobiographic story "Little Pole in Asia Minor", Andrzej Zieniewicz, a contemporary literature historian with an air of detachment, describes his glottodidactic experiences in teaching Polish language to the Turks. As in his research papers, in "Little Pole…" Zieniewicz proves that the author is still present in the artistic work, reveals himself and provokes the reader. This is because the subject of the narrative is literary expressed experiences, thoughts and imaginations of the author. In prose described as silva rerum, these experiences are fragmentary and subjective. The author is a figure prior to the narrator, and the matter of the narrative itself is inconsistent, incoherent and fragmentary reality of human cognition.
