Personalistyczny podmiot literacki

Abstract

The article raises the issue of subjectivity in literature as well as methods of its description and research in postmodernity. It is based on the concept of a person in the Christian personalism and the views of other philosophers and psychologists stating that a person is a deep, spiritual structure inside a human being defined by the deep need, which is constitutive for a person’s identity, to be in relation to the transcendence, sacrum, God. On the basis of this concept the tool was proposed for the study of subjectivity in literature – a concept of personalistic literary subject. This research proposal takes into account the fundamental postulates of the mentioned concepts of a person, in particular its relatedness and the meaning of the relation to transcendence, to sacrum, God.
