This paper analyzes the contemporary context of nostalgia, recollection and narration of childhood events on the basis of field notes collected by means of different methodological techniques. The narrative quest for the past produces interpretations of past events and experiences and opens the space to the feeling of nostalgia, or nostalgic stories. This paper aims to present a small portion of the captured everyday life in which games and toys appear as any other subobject or pseudoobject of nostalgia, but with a distance from one’s own childhood experience. We utilize Donald Braid’s approach which opens the space for observing the transmission of oral personal narratives and the transmission of emotions in and through language.

The article is based on an analysis of accounts about everyday consumption practices during the crisis in the 1980s. Consumption is treated as a lens which enables us to analyse women’s experiences of the crisis. The micro-social definition of the crisis adopted in the text focuses our attention on the activity of individuals who developed strategies to adapt to the new situation. The analysis covered personal documents, journals and diaries, as well as (to illustrate the expert discourse) specialist press and literature, and women’s magazines. The article focuses on the recorded experiences of educated big city dwellers.

The Vilamovians are an ethnic group living on the borderland of Silesia and Lesser Poland. They are descendants of settlers who came to this place in the 13th century, as evidenced by the continuously functioning Germanic language called Wymysorys. In 1941 they signed the Volksliste, which became one of the causes of their postwar persecutions. In memoir-based stories of the Vilamovians there are recurrent elements of narration – interpretive models, topoi and linguistic fossils – which are shared by all group members as a result of the process of fabulization and folklorization. I refer to this group as the “Vilamovian-centric community of memory”. One of the most important models occurring in the narration of this community is the interpretive model of “the belief in the functioning of the state”. Its main function is to justify the actions of the Vilamovians as a group to an outside listener who, according to the perceptions of community members, has a false image of what the Volksliste was.

Wilamowianie to grupa etniczna mieszkająca na pograniczu Śląska i Małopolski. Są oni potomkami osadników przybyłych z zachodniej Europy, o czym świadczy zachowany do dziś germański język wilamowski (Wymysiöeryś). W 1941 r. Wilamowianie podpisali Volkslistę, co było jednym z powodów ich powojennych prześladowań. W opowieściach wspomnieniowych wielu Wilamowian na ten temat pojawiają się powtarzające się elementy narracji – wzorce interpretacyjne, toposy i skamieliny językowe, które w wyniku procesu fabularyzacji i folkloryzacji są dzielone przez wszystkich członków grupy. Tę grupę nazwałem wilamowskocentryczną wspólnotą pamięci. Jednym z najważniejszych wzorców interpretacyjnych występujących w narracji tej grupy jest wzorzec „wiary w funkcjonowanie państwa”. Jego głównym zadaniem jest usprawiedliwienie Wilamowian jako grupy przed odbiorcą z zewnątrz, który – według wyobrażeń członków wspólnoty – ma fałszywy obraz tego, czym była Volkslista.
