Wiedeńskie spektrum i Bruno Schulz

Abstrakt

A report on research conducted in Vienna and Lviv archives to locate information on Debora Vogel’s family and her young years: her exile in Vienna in 1914–1918, her education at the Realgymnasium at Albertgasse 38 (one of Vienna’s best and most modern educational institutions), and her studies at the John Casimir University (Pol. Uniwersytet Jana Kazimierza) in Lviv in 1919–1924. The documents and facts presented in the article contribute to a reconstruction of the historical and cultural context in which the future writer’s mind was formed. Records such as school registers and Vogel’s student book also give an insight into the process of crystallization of her specific interests which were later developed in her literary and critical work. Considering her tragic fate, every new binding is particularly significant.
