Abstrakt

The basis of this work is a fragment of Zygmunt Dżuganowski’s diary ‘Wrocławska szansa’, regarding the post-war journey to Sobótka. In the article ‘Ślęża Mountain as a metaphor for the Western Territories in 1945’, the way of how memory works was analyzed by examining stages of the road surrounded by cultural, given meanings. The symbolic peregrination towards Ślęza and the Slavic beginnings of Polishness has a strictly legitimizing purpose.The exploration of space and the ancient traces of ancestors found in it are a poetic way of presenting evidence of the validity of settlement.
