They focused on the campaign against "idealism", "formalism" and "psychology" in literary research and in critique, where after the youthful period there was a lot of muddiness hidden under the decorations of a seductive style.

The leading representatives of the Krakow school of criticism were Jan Błoński, Ludwik Flaszen, Andrzej Kijowski, Konstanty Puzyna.
