The article attempts to present the circumstances of the Millennium celebrations in Gniezno in 1966. As the capital of the oldest metropolis in Poland, Gniezno was the fi rst city, in which the communist regime organised political demonstration, an intended counterweight to church ceremonies. The author shows the actual process of preparation for these celebrations and describes their course. From the point of view of Primate Wyszyński, the most important day was 14 April 1966, which marked the liturgical anniversary of the baptism of Mieszko I. Despite the fact that the authorities hindered the faithful from outside Gniezno’s arrival to the so-called Millennium Mass’, roughly 40 thousand people participated in the mess. A manifestation organiaed by the communist authorities on 16 April 1966 was intentionally confrontational in nature . The most important guest was Marshal Marian Spychalski, who attacked the Church in his speech. Enraged, a number of demonstration participants left the place of the meeting and headed to the cathedral, wherePrimate Wyszyński fi nished the Millennium celebrations in Gniezno. Wyszyński emerged the victor in the confrontation with the authorities.

The author discusses baptism as a religious and political event, the beginning of the Polish state. She explains the historical circumstances, i.e. the balance of power in Poland and Europe as well as talks about the place and time of Mieszko I’s baptism. She emphasizes the fact that the present jubilee is celebrated in free Poland with the participation of the political leaders. The answers collected in the survey from several respondents, including clergy, politicians, actors and journalists, point to different aspects of the baptism of Poland.

The article is about the celebration of Jan Kochanowski’s anniversary (450 anniversary of his birth and 400 of his death) in the eighties of the 20th century. On the basis of the gathered material (materials maintained in Archiwa Państwowe [State Archives] in Radom in Komitet Wojewódzki PZPR Wydział Propagandy [the Voivodship Committee of the United Polish Workers Party, the Department of Propaganda]) it has been presented how the preparations to the celebration proceeded, how the social recognition was built on the oeuvre of the Renaissance poet, and also on how the memory and national heritage were managed. The analysis shows that anniversary celebrations in 1980-1984 were mostly instrumental, vulgar and drawn by the propaganda machine.

Historical reenactors can most frequently be encountered during celebrations of various anniversaries. Most recently - at the 100 anniversary celebrations of the Silesian Uprisings - troops of German soldiers and Silesian insurgents could be seen in many Silesian towns and cities. Historical reenactment is in most cases associated with reenacting battles. This is, however, only a part of a much broader phenomenon. In addition to the military aspects, reenactors go to great lengths to recreate daily lives, customs, traditions and craftsmanship. The beginnings of the historical reenactment movement go back to the 19th-20th centuries worldwide, and the late 20th and early 21st centuries in Poland. In order to present the point of view of the reenactors themselves, the text is accompanied by mini-interviews with the members of reenactment groups.

Rekonstruktorów najczęściej można spotkać podczas obchodów różnego rodzaju rocznic. Grupy wcielające się w powstańców śląskich i żołnierzy niemieckich oddziałów można było zobaczyć w wielu miastach w ramach obchodów stulecia powstań śląskich. Sama rekonstrukcja historyczna kojarzy się z odtwarzaniem bitew, jednak jest to tylko część szerszego zjawiska. Oprócz wojska rekonstruktorzy starają się w miarę możliwości odtworzyć życie codzienne, obyczaje oraz rzemiosło. Początki rekonstrukcji na świecie sięgają XIX i XX wieku, a w Polsce przypadają na koniec XX i początek XXI wieku. Aby przybliżyć punkt widzenia samych rekonstruktorów, do tekstu dołączono mini-wywiady z członkami grup rekonstrukcyjnych.

Artykuł omawia polityki pamięci państw Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej w dwudziestoleciu międzywojennym w czterech obszarach. Pierwszy dotyczy sporów wokół daty uzyskania (albo odzyskania) niepodległości, względnie zjednoczenia kraju. Kolejny – pomników usuwanych i erygowanych po 1918 r. Trzeci przybliża losy grobów wojennych i upamiętnień poległych w I wojnie światowej i w walkach o niepodległość i granice. Ostatni analizuje okoliczności i symbolikę grobów nieznanego żołnierza. The article presents policies of memory pursued in the interwar period by the states of Central and Eastern Europe, on the basis of four groups of examples. The first one concerns controversies around the date of gaining (or regaining) independence, or unification of the country. The next one – monuments removed or erected after 1918. The third group focuses on the fate of war graves and commemoration places of people killed during the Great War and in fights for independence and frontiers, while the last one analyses the circumstances and symbolism of unknown soldiers’ graves.

The article analyses how the Holocaust is becoming an element of collective memory of today’s residents of Podkarpacie. On the basis of the typology of widely understood collective memory and the presentation of sociological research results indicating how in practice the remembrance of the Holocaust functions in the awareness of Podkarpacie selected social groups, an attempt has been made at the analysis of ways of commemorating the Holocaust and its victims on the basis of local anniversary celebrations: the March of the Living (Rzeszów), Days of Memory of Rymanów Jews (Rymanów) and International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust (Rzeszów, Jarosław, Lubaczów, Krosno and Kolbuszowa). On the basis of the analysis, it may be claimed that the memory of the Holocaust in Podkarpacie is an important manifestation of the existence of the past in the public discourse. It is mainly grassroots and social memory which somehow encloses centralized memory developed by state and local government institutions. It is generally the memory of the Polish nation that has been most severely persecuted by the Germans during World War II as well as the memory of the Poles helping persecuted Jews.

Статья анализирует причину, по которой Холокост становится әлементом общенародной памяти жителей Подкарпатья. Основываясь на типологии общенародной памяти, в широком понимании әтого слова, и результатах социологического исследования, указывающего на то, как на практике функционирует память о Холокосте в сознании общественных групп Подкарпатья, авторы проанализировали причины, благодаря которым жива память о Холокосте и его жертвах. Доказательством памяти о Холокосте являются: Марш Живых (Жешов), Дни памяти еврейской общины Рымянова (Рымянув), Международный день памяти о жертвах Холокоста (Жешув, Ярослав, Любачув, Кросно, Колбушова). Анализируя әто, авторы пришли к выводу, что память о Холокосте на Подкарпатье является важным доказательством того, что прошлое до сих пор сохранилось в публичном дискурсе. Әто общенародная память, к которой как будто присоединяется память централизованная, сформированная под влиянием государственных и муниципальных учреждений. В основном, әто память о польском народе, сильно пострадавшем во время Второй Мировой войны, о поляках, которые помогали евреям, подвергавшимся преследованиям.
