Czy fikcja może być prawdziwa?

Abstrakt

The subject of this article is the problem of truth in works of literature. The purpose of presenting the polemic between Roman Ingarden and Jerzy Pelc concerning the issue of verity of statements in literary fiction is to show the difficulties that inevitably arise while analyzing literary fiction. The major theses and solutions proposed by both authors are, in my opinion, still relevant - in the sense that they give a picture of the magnitude of logical problems with which everyone who wants to build a thorough theory of literary fiction must cope.
