Praktyki filologiczne Stefana Szymutki – rekonesans

The article is split into two parts. In the first one, author postulates interpreting Stefan Szymutko’s oeuvre within a broad context of „philological practices” and tries to describe the big array of modern returns to philology both in the Western countries and Poland. In second part he sets out the methodological problems, which awaits for the reasercher trying to establish Szymutko’s text corpus. Author, inspired by Derrida’s hauntology, shows that not available, currently unexisting or potentialy existing texts may became the object of literary scholar’s interest.
