abstract = {The paper reacts on Pavel Cmorej{\textquoteright}s analysis of sentences of the form (ιx)Φ(x) is C, focusing on the case where {\textquotedblleft}C{\textquotedblright} stands for {\textquotedblleft}impossible{\textquotedblright}. The author agrees with Cmorej{\textquoteright}s conclusion that in such a context the modal term applies on the meaning of the description, classifying it as unable to provide a procedure which would lead to identifying an individual (as a unique bearer of the property (λx)Φ(x) in some world and time). He questions Cmorej{\textquoteright}s example of impossibility based on contradiction from the sphere of literary fiction, examines various ways in which the constitution of a lit- erary character may impose (or seem to impose) incompatible demands on the reader, requiring her to {\textquotedblleft}think impossible{\textquotedblright}, and suggests a way of avoiding some confusions widespread in this field.},
