Abstract
Leopold Tyrmand remains as an inspirational figure for many researchers of the twentiethcentury literature. Though there isn’t much published regarding his biography. Documents created by Social Security contain not only informative denunciations, but also describes the operational actions done against the writer. They fill in the gap in Tyrmanda’s life story, known mainly from the publications of Henryk Dasko, Mariusz Urbanka and Marcel Woźniak. In them a careful researcher is able to find unpublished information regarding the various parts of the writer’s life. They make up an interesting comparison material to what has already been known. These documents in an important way complement our knowledge about the activities and the life of Tyrmanda. Inside we can find a valuable information regarding his political and social stands, relationships with other people known in the world of culture and arts, his diplomatic contacts and his attitude towards communism.
