| Summary: | The affective turn, initiated in the 1990s, also has an influence on Polish humanities, particularly thanks to the efforts of scholars of cultural studies and literary studies. It would be possible, of course, to debate the point of ennobling the tendencies (visible to a greater or lesser extent) with the notion of a ‘turn’: in those moments, we always risk the danger of participating in the easily criticised process of giving intellectual content attractive names and transforming it into products. However, I believe, in all the potential validity of those objections, that being over-cautious would not be appropriate here. As the category of affect has been the privileged figure of thought in literary research, history and history of art, and in visual and general forms of culture roughly in the last ten years: in broadly defined studies on culture, using the term ‘affective turn’ is not truly controversial, if it is not used to denote a substantial change, or a decisive transformation. Going beyond humanism is tantamount to a distance to any form of the representative model, to the domination of the category of representation, and representationism defined as a horizon to be crossed. Seeking affect as that which precedes representation is another gesture of going beyond the post-Cartesian and post-Kantian paradigms centred on experience. Texts collected in this volume show, in a persuasive way, not only that affect as an operationalised research category has settled in the humanities for good; they also prove that affective turn is a part of a much wider wave of transformations of the thinking models of our time.
