Abstracts

The article discusses the coexistence of three types of historical narratives – academic, everyday and educational – that create the basic context for establishing a synthesis of national history in how the recent past is being taught today both in Poland and in other European countries. This specific conglomerate, a mix of different types of narratives that expose the logic of history, that has a common source – mythology. At the same time, it lies at the foundation of the titular problem of "silencing the past" for the needs of contemporary discourses, as well as "historical bulimia", understood as a surplus representation of preferred visions of history that are structured according to a mythically-understood and unconditional initial situation.
