Abstract :This article focuses on the epistolography as a space of free expression for the repressed queer identities. Through the example of Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz’s letters to Jerzy Błeszyński, the paper renders affects, emotions and facts that could not have been said in the officially published works of Iwaszkiewicz. After the interpretation of the letters in the optics of minority writing, this study leads to the importance of modern affective lectures for literary interpretation. The author analyzes similar motives in Iwaszkiewicz’s letters and contemporary Ignacy Karpowicz’s Miłość, and shows the results of this reparative reading’s attempt, using the tools and methods provided by minority studies, queer critic, and works on historical and contemporary epistolography. By using these texts and discourses, the paper aims to give the answer to the role of reading epistolography as a changing process in literary history.
