Abstract
The article consist in a critical overview of the book Practice – utopia – metaphor. An invention in the 19th century [Warsaw 2016], written by J. Kubicka and M. Litwinowicz-Droździel. Its starting point is general musings over the tensions between modernity and tradition, rationality with irrationality observed by the 19th century scholars. These tensions have a direct effect on modern times, on the 21st century. Books like this one are worth reading attentively, not only for specialists, but all those interested in changes the current civilisation is undergoing. “Invention” becomes the keyword allowing to understand a variety of social and cultural phenomena we observe in the perspective of the “long term” from 19th century to the modern times.
