"Człowiek z czerwonym ołówkiem", czyli o literackich próbach kreowania wizerunku cenzury w latach odwilży

Abstract

The article presents author's attempts to create images of censorship and censors in the mid 1950s, i.e. in the short period of liberalisation in the political system and culture. The conducted analysis is mainly based on texts which are unpublished and stored in the Main Office of Control of Press, Publications and Shows. The primary goal of the article is, on the one hand, to expose the most important creations of censorship being a reflection of the society's state of consciousness, on the other hand, to depict the attitude of censors towards literary, press or radio content they suppressed.
