A Reply to Professor Henryk Markiewicz

In my reply to Professor Markiewicz I focus on my belief in the necessity of considering literary history as an important part of contemporary culture. I am deeply convinced, that literary history, far from abandoning its professional standards, should join the processes created by this culture and respect a new kind of sensibility and expectations typical for its participans. The crucial aim in this situation is to consolidate the value of the literature itself.
