https://doi.org/10.4467/20843860PK.22.015.16312The article is a meta-theoretical study devoted to the ecosophical project of Félix Guattari developed in his two books The Three Ecologies i Chaosmosis: An Ethico-Aesthetic Paradigm. According to Aleksandra Ubertowska, the core aim of Guattari’s work is rethinking of the issue of subject which he regards as a process of the non-anthropocentric subjectivisation. Ubertowska devotes particular attention to the notion of transversality, intersection of many processes, social and environmental axes which in Guattari’s work should determine the ecosophical approach. In the late part of the article Ubertowska elaborates on the concept of chaosmosis which Guattari compared to the language of madness, and defines as oscillation between excess of meanings and vacuum of signs.

https://doi.org/10.4467/2084395XWI.18.036.10200The aim of the text is the examination how the homosexual experience connected with natural spaces such as beach, park, dessert is reflected in diaries and novels by T.S. Lawrence, Witold Gombrowicz, and Michał Witkowski. The author comes to the conclusion that liminal spaces undermine the binaries „nature/culture”, „norm/anomie”, „primordial/fabricated”. Nature defined as „queerness” (the notion coined by C. Sandilands) seems in these works to play the role of counter-narrative of modern culture, establishing a different order of moral values and new, extended (non-anthropocentric) subjectivity that connects species within a set of interactions between plants, water, sand, climate factors.
