Wydział Filologiczny, Uniwersytet w BiałymstokuAbstract
The article concerns a book by Anna Barcz presenting the methodology which transgresses the anthropological understanding of a literary text. Nature writing, including fictional narratives, becomes the tool of environmental protection. By attempting to re-define realism, Barcz proposes to introduce into Polish literary studies the concept of ecological realism. This idea aims at identifying the blurred cultural connections between man and environment.
