Abstract

This article attempts to show the process of a creation of a picture of Latvia by Maria Dąbrowska. A phenomenon of „thinking up”, according to James Clifford, relates to the ways of description of a foreign culture similar to those used by ethnologists and writers. A core of the process of „thinking up” of a foreign culture includes both an ethnological information, socio-cultural analyses and also the evidences of an author’s emotions. The M. Dąbrowska’s works Dziennik małej podróży (1927) and U północnych sąsiadów (1929) are a record of a summer travel through the three Baltic countries, Latvia, Lithuania and Finland in 1927. Moreover, M. Dąbrowska also updated what she wrote about this travel in her diary. Short diary notes were expanded on in Dziennik małej podróży and U północnych sąsiadów. Therefore, the process of „thinking up” of Latvia by the author includes particularly tokens of the emotional reactions primarily triggered by her first meeting with the culture and society of Latvia.
