Gary-Ajar's autobiographical work constitutes a unicum in the panorama of contemporary French literature: by working on the borderline of genres, the author manages to accomplish a total uprooting with the intention of casting doubt on the validity of a stable identity, mirror of a definite subject. Using an analysis of the formal uncertainty that marks Promise at Dawn, The Night Will Be Calm, Pseudo and The Life and Death of Émile Ajar, this article aims to show how Romain Gary succeeds in diverting the reader's interest from issues such as authenticity and veracity of writing and crossing the boundary between document and fiction to realize his “dream of a total novel, at once character and author.” By challenging what he sees as the intimist tendencies of his day, Gary obliterates the narcissistic character of autobiographical writing to give birth to a form that allows the subject to self-create.

A recurring gesture in Soifs as in subsequent volumes by Marie-Claire Blais, emergence, along with resurgence, gives rhythm to temporality, making things indissociable from the movement of their appearance. This movement of emergence, constantly renewed, represents and structures the fluid circulation of memory and imagination in the Soifs cycle; it also makes possible a dynamic account of the highly polarized temporal stratification that underpins Blais's work. Here, however, it is considered primarily as an elementary aesthetic gesture calling on all the resources of writing.

The aim of the Bibliography of Italian Studies in Poland (BISP) project is to create a complete database of scientific publications written by scholars employed by Italian studies departments of Polish higher education institutions. This article presents a detailed description of the project and the results of a thorough bibliographic analysis of the publications included in BISP, which encompasses texts from three disciplines: linguistics, literary studies, and cultural and religious studies. The analyzed data concern the publications of Italian studies researchers who are currently active at Polish universities: 149 monographs, 113 edited volumes, 1,151 journal articles, and 1,415 chapters in collected monographs—a total of 2,828 publications, written by 145 authors. Our objective is to identify any discernible trends in terms of publishing research results by the analyzed group of researchers.
