In the article, the image of Polish democracy/autocracy during the Second Republic has been reconstructed. The subject of the analysis were the autobiographical notes entitled Osam godina u Varšavi written by Julije Benešić who stayed in Warsaw in the years 1930–1938 as a delegate of the Yugoslavian Department of Eductaion and Science. From his currently updated notes, a picture of Poland emerged as a state in which the basic civil rights were regularly broken including those guaranteed by the Constitution. The most glaring examples of the non-democratic actions regarded the problems of the national minorities (specifically the Polish-Ukrainian and Polish-Jewish relationships) as well as the prisons for the political opponents (Bereza Kartuska and Brześć). What is more, the observations made by the Croatian translator, writer and linguist illuminate in the form of interesting conotations the Polish mentality. ; In the article, the image of Polish democracy/autocracy during the Second Republic has been reconstructed.

The work aims to show a peculiar perspective of looking at photographs taken on the eve of the broadly understood disaster, which is specified in a slightly different way in each of the literary texts (Stefan Chwin's autobiographical novel Krótka historia pewnego żartu [The brief history of a certain joke], a poem by Ryszard Kapuściński Na wystawie "Fotografia chłopów polskich do 1944 r." [At an exhibition "The Polish peasants in photographs to 1944"] and Wisława Szymborska's Fotografia z 11 września [Photograph from September 11]) – as death in a concentration camp, a general concept of the First World War or a terrorist attack. Upcoming tragic events – of which the photographed people are not yet aware – become for the subsequent recipient an inseparable element of reality contained in the frame. For the later observers, privileged with time perspective, the characters captured in the photograph are already victims of the catastrophe, which in reality was not yet recorded by the camera. It is a work about coexistence of the past and future in the field of photography.
Despite the growing attention of scholars studying the history of Polish women's movement in the 19th and 20th centuries as well as Polish women's lives and their autobiographical writing, there is still a significant number of female activists and authors who – despite their remarkable personality and/or pioneering work – met with little interest. One of those extraordinary women is Józefa Krzyżanowska-Kodis (1865–1940), one of the first Polish women to receive a doctorate in philosophy (from University of Zurich in 1893), a socialist, feminist, and co-founder of the Polish Section of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. Although she was unsuccessful in her efforts to obtain a university position in the United States, Józefa Kodis (Kodisowa) was a passionate philosopher, as well as a social activist and publicist. The few scholarly pieces on her focused on her friendship with Carl Hauptmann. By contrast, the author proposes to have a closer look at the memoirs of Józefa and her daughter Zofia Kodis-Freyer and other archival sources in order to present the most important experiences, cultural and interpersonal constellations, and networks that shaped Kodisowa's biography and perspective on female emancipation, female-male relations, social (in)equality, and pacifism. ; Historia polskiego ruchu kobiecego w XIX i XX wieku, a także losy Polek i ich autobiografie przyciągają uwagę coraz liczniejszych badaczy i badaczek. Jednak wciąż istnieje spora grupa działaczek i autorek, które mimo swojej wybitnej osobowości i/lub pionierskich dokonań budzą co najwyżej ograniczone zainteresowanie. Do tego grona niezwykłych kobiet należy Józefa Krzyżanowska-Kodis (1865–1940), jedna z pierwszych Polek ze stopniem doktora filozofii (Uniwersytet w Zurychu, 1893), socjalistka, feministka oraz współzałożycielka Sekcji Polskiej Międzynarodowej Ligi Kobiet na rzecz Pokoju i Wolności.
