Abstract

In the review of the book W cieniu białego drzewa. Powieść fantasy w XX wieku by Tomasz Z. Majkowski, the author argues its theses, indicating at significant shortcomings of the publication. At the same time, he presents his own ideas on fantasy convention research. He points to important categories of research of novels written in this style, not included by Majkowski: the relation to mythologies and the necessity of utilizing the history of ideas, should one want to create its historical and literary compendium. Dans le compte rendu du livre de Tomasz Z. Majkowski, W cieniu białego drzewa. Powieść fantasy w XX wieku [À l’ombre d’un arbre blanc. Le roman de fantasy au XXe siècle], l’auteur polémique avec les thèses présentées dans le livre précité, en démontrant les défauts de ladite publication. Il présente aussi ses propres concepts concernant l’examen des conventions de fantasy. Il désigne les catégories omises par Majkowski, qui sont pourtant importantes dans l’étude des romans créés selon les conventions en question : il s’agit des liens avec les mythologies et la nécessité de se référer à l’histoire des idées, surtout si on veut élaborer un précis d’histoire littéraire.
