This book is not only a collection of articles, but above all an invitation to reflect on the role of literature in society. The authors analyze the signals coming from texts, discussions about art, the limits of artistic freedom and the barriers that artists try to overcome. The monograph orders concepts and proposes an overview of artistic and communication practices characteristic of the 21st century. Are signallers idealists, pragmatists, or even informers? Dogmatists or anti-systemists? Is there also a signaller using different tools? Is signalling a domain of politics, or does it appear and persist in the side currents of culture? Who is speaking to us - narrators, their constructors, or interpreting people? Would we know what is happening to us without art? Some of these questions are answered in the articles in the monograph, others are provoked, which is a sign of good scientific ideas.

This publication is a valuable source of knowledge for students, literary scholars and all those interested in the role of art in shaping social awareness. It helps to better understand the mechanisms of manipulation and disinformation that affect our daily lives. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to critically analyze the surrounding reality and actively participate in social life.
