Abstract

The article discusses two ways in which modernist writers represent a duel. Witkacy describes a dispute between an artist and a modern society which deprives it of its meaning i.e. an honour. Gombrowicz understands that artists has already lost his honour and therefore exposes duels as a deliberate deconstruction of matters of honour. Both deal with complex restitution of the meaning that is applied to art in the modern society.
