Abstract: In reference to the concept of the state of exception (German: Ausnahmezustand) in the legal theory of the German jurist Carl Schmitt, which was further developed by the Italian philosopher Giogio Agamben, the article focuses on a motive of the "poor Poles looking at the ghetto" (Jan Błoński) in Warsaw. The study presents the novel Holy Week (Wielki Tydzień), written by Jerzy Andrzejewski in 1943, as an expression of the guilty conscience of Polish Catholics, confronted with the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. |
