Abstract
The female-male space is marked by eroticism in which sensuality and
sexuality are not identical. That eroticism describes the “sensual events”, and
“The Doll” is the monograph of them. “Sensual events” include the ground of
the five senses, among which the eyesight has the lead. The attractiveness begins
with looking that goes from semantics of clothing to the *voyeurism. On the
boundaries of the senses there is a metaphor of the world as a confectionery
where a woman is a cake – prey. Thus a woman is for tasting, occasionally for
kissing. If you speak with her, it is a frivolously conversation. The theme of
love becomes a kind of linguistic game. In the space of a body the femininity
is sensually erotic (Izabela) or it emanates the intellectual eroticism (Wąsowska).
In this context, using the potential of “sensual events” causes that “The Doll” is
full of a discreet charm of eroticism.
