The author has identified and discussed some basic threads: the genology of the work, and its theatricality and ideology. Almost all critics of the interwar period got involved in the beginnings of the discussion, regardless of their experience and political orientation. <span style="font-family: ArnoPro-Regular; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: ArnoPro-Regular; font-size: small;">Readers and theatre critics (incidentally, the play </span></span><em><span style="font-family: ArnoPro-Italic; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: ArnoPro-Italic; font-size: small;">Uciekła mi przepióreczka </span></span></em>came in literary and theatrical circulation almost at the same time) perceived a call for a new patriotism in the work, which Przełęcki was supposed to spread in the liberated Homeland.
