A Fable and the Truth in Antonina Domańska’s Short Stories Antonina Domańska’s work is distinguished by a great variety of applied genological patterns, which include: a historical novel, a historical short story, a contemporary drama short story, a fable, a legend and a belief tale. Particular genres may be categorised into two communication models present in the 19th century literature for children and young adults. One of them was connected with ‘telling tales’ (using fiction), while the other one consisted in ‘story-telling’, understood as conveying facts that could be verified through empirical experience. Truth and fiction in Domanska’s literary output turn out to be certain poles, between which the world depicted in her narrative works spreads. What seems to be typical of this kind of writing style is the tendency to maintain an ideological and aesthetic coherence of the created world, which is reflected in the characteristic closeness between events and images constructed by means of various genotypes. Thus, the world of fables (a collection Przy kominku) finds its counterpart in the real world, while the real world (depicted especially in historical works) is complemented by images and motifs from the fable tradition. As a result, the fable compensation acquires roots in social reality and psychological motivation, while literary images of the past are enriched by folklore motifs referring to old folk beliefs and concepts.
