This paper presents Polish regulation regarding “right of first offer” in the Museum Act. Author explains the legal nature and allocation of this institution within Polish legal system. The analysis is conducted from perspective of axiology and legal dogma, while the provision under scrutiny is reviewed in the light of constitutional protection of ownership’s right. Moreover, this regulation’s mayor cons are pointed out which result from imprecise usage of terms of legal language for drafting this regulation’s provisions. Consequently, this regulation hardly can be applied, therefore it does not protect monuments as effective as it should be, as it was intended by the Legislator.

The world has been experiencing the era of commemoration for several decades. The events and heroes, usually doomed to oblivion until recently, are being commemorated. Many monuments appear out of an initiative of social committees. Monuments create places important for towns in which social memory is celebrated. They are an affective reference to the past and a material basis of remembering. They bring the images of the past back, facilitate remembering, as well as judge the events and establish the heroes and anti-heroes of the history. Nowadays, a traditional approach to public monuments, marked by respect, are accompanied by unconventional forms of their usage, revealing the idea crisis of such monuments as sanctified places of memory.

The proposed regulation, which provides for ex lege deduction of ownership of a movable property belonging to a local government entity, requires consideration in terms of constitutional protection of communal property and the principle of self-government autonomy of local government units. The Act on the Protection and Care of Monuments allows a permanent removal of a monument on the basis of an appropriate permit, provided that the object has no particular value for cultural heritage, which is the case here. The bill thus sets a precedent by allowing the export of a relic of the past and its transfer to another country.

Próby inwentaryzacji i udokumentowania Miejsc Pamięci Narodowej, tak charakterystycznych w ikonosferze Warszawy, były podejmowane wcześniej wielokrotnie. Wynik tych prób w korelacji do posiadanych w zbiorach archiwalnych badanych materiałów, wyraźnie wykazuje braki, błędy lub ograniczenia zakresu do inwentaryzacji fotograficznej, lub zawężenia wykazu tylko do konkretnego okresu (np. Powstania Warszawskiego). W efekcie mojego projektu, opracowana została pełna ewidencja i rejestracja tablic i monolitów, upamiętniających historię miasta w okresie tragicznych wydarzeń ostatniej wojny, autorstwa rzeźbiarza Karola Tchorka. Zebrana baza materiałowa: dokumentacja fotograficzna, ocena stanu technicznego, uporządkowanie danych w oparciu dokumenty archiwalne, pozwoli też mam nadzieję, na opracowanie graficzne i wydanie publikacji - mapy Warszawy wraz z ukazaniem tła wydarzeń, w formie przewodnika po Miejscach Pamięci. Dokumentacja i wyniki projektu zostały przekazane Fundacji Tchorek-Bentall, która zgodnie ze Statutem sprawuje opiekę nad spuścizną artystyczną Karola Tchorka.

Attempts at making inventories of, and documenting National Memory Sites, so characteristic for the iconosphere of Warsaw, have been undertaken upon numerous occasions. The outcome of those endeavours in correlation to the examined material in archival collections distinctly indicates gaps, errors, or restrictions of the range to photographic inventories or limiting the list to a concrete period (e.g. the Warsaw Uprising). The project presented by the author of this article produced a complete record and registration of plaques and monoliths designed by the sculptor Karol Tchorek and commemorating the history of the town during the tragic events of the last war. The accumulated material basis: photographic documentation, assessment of the technical state, and an orderly arrangement of data upon the basis of archival documents will, hopefully, enable a graphic study and the issuing of a publication – a map of Warsaw showing the background of events in the form of a guidebook to Memory Sites. The documentation and outcome of the project were entrusted to the Tchorek-Bentall Foundation, which, in accordance with its Statute, is the guardian of the artistic bequest of Karol Tchorek.

The Supreme Court.s resolution that the establishment of road easement shall not be preceded by the decision of the Voivodeship conservator of monuments is correct. However, it should be pointed out that legal justification for this thesis is insufficient. Supreme Court, in some fragments of justification, even contradicted this thesis. The regulation of article 36, paragraph 1 of The protection of monuments Act does not eliminate the legal claim for establishing a road easement with the neighbouring property owner.

The article provides a comparison of two monuments - one of František Palacký in Prague and second of Theodor Mommsen in Berlin. Both men were key historians of their nations in 19th century. Palacký has offered a master-narrative of Czech national past in his famous book The History of Czech Nation in Bohemia and Moravia and set the main structures of narrating Czech history for two centuries. Theodor Mommsen has become a worldwide known historian due to his extraordinary History of Rome, for which he has obtained Nobel Price for Literature in 1903. Monuments of these historians were built on the beginning of the 20th century (Palacký's in 1912, Mommsen's in 1909). The paper focuses on structural similarities between the monuments, especially in the area of collective memory. Using theory of Maurice Halbwachs that was formulated just before World War II the essay points out that there is a fundamental connection between memory and space. The essay argues that there is no significant structural difference between Palacký's and Mommsen's monument in terms of shaping the collective memory.

The article presents the fate of monumental sculpture in occupied Warsaw 1939-1945. The aim of the Third Reich’s cultural policy adopted in Poland was to get rid of all traces of the Poles' cultural identity. This was manifest, i.a., in the destruction of Polish monuments. Therefore, it want to dispose of Polish monuments from the capital as objects that played a special role in maintaining the spirit of Polishness. Through subsequent orders, the occupying authorities sought to remove them from the city. The Polish City Council, headed by the commissary mayor Julian Kulski, took all measures to save these monuments. Most of the capital's monuments survived until the outbreak of the Warsaw Uprising, thanks to actions taken to save them. After 1944, only a few of them remained on the plinths.

Celem artykułu jest zarysowanie problematyki integracji architektury współczesnej inspirowanej formami historycznymi z obiektami zabytkowymi, zarówno w skali pojedynczego obiektu, jak też zespołu staromiejskiego. Rozważania obejmują tło ogólne oraz krótkie opisy realizacji ilustrujących poruszane zagadnienia. Przeprowadzona analiza potwierdza znaczenie współczesnej architektury „historyzującej” w procesie integracji nowych form ze strukturami zabytkowymi.

The aim of the article is to outline the problems of integration of contemporary architecture inspired by historical forms with historical monuments, both in the scale of a single architectural object and the scale of an old town. Considerations include general background and brief descriptions of the raised issues. The analysis confirms the importance of contemporary „historicising” architecture in the process of integrating new forms with historic structures.

Performance is usually seen as a transient event. Hamlet calls it a thing. How can an event become a thing? Philosophy distinguishes between things and events. The two orders are different. Their difference is articulated in terms of time. Things are continuous, while events are evanescent. Hamlet calls the play within the play a ‘thing’ (Hamlet. II. Ii. 612). He thus thrusts it into the order of the continuous. Levinas introduces the concept of being otherwise. In order to explain the evanescent continuity, we will make use of this concept. Acting introduces a new mode of being that differs from that of writing. It is „eventive” continuity that we wish to speak about. An actor is only otherwise. By this, we mean that s/he is essentially a difference. An actor is only what s/he is not. By being a difference, the actor survives. Actors do not die. It is true that actors are mortals but the role will survive being acted. Unlike writing, where the word survives as a fixed monument, the role survives through repetition. This repetition is a recreation through repetitive simultaneity. When Iago says: I am not what I am (Othello. I. i. 65), he defines himself as a simultaneous difference. To be only as difference is quite challenging. Indeed, if the only mode of being is being otherwise, we speak about pure difference. Pure difference — total otherness that has no other — is the essence of acting. In the following essay, we intend to explore the generic question of temporality through a comparison between the monumentality of writing and that of acting. We will try to explain how a play is a thing, a continuous mode of being.

Aim. This study examines the characteristics of the individuals who go on the journey to Poland, which is a key element of the Holocaust education curriculum in Israel, their personal connection to the Holocaust, as well as the socio-political developments in Israel that attempt to bridge the gap between the various poles in society – between East and West. Concept. Holocaust education includes the formal part, which is the historical narrative, and the informal part, which is the journey to Poland. This study follows the development of Holocaust education and commemoration of the victims of the Holocaust – from the narrative of the Holocaust of the Jews of Europe to the narrative of the Holocaust among the communities of North African descent. Results and conclusion. The findings of the study indicate a link between family support and ties to the Holocaust, and the journey to Poland, which appears to be in line with findings of Nitza Davidovitch and Dan Soen (2011), who found a correlation between the students participating in the journey and their personal connections to the Holocaust, in contrast to students with no family connection with the Holocaust. For all its importance, the journey to Poland has been found to perpetuate social polarisation. Practical applications. The current study highlights the challenge of Holocaust education in order to build a bridge of shared historical destiny through this seminal event of the twentieth century. Originality. This work sparks the question of how to make the journey to Poland a unifying factor in collective national memory.

Gorgias, the teacher of Isocrates, is rarely mentioned in Isocrates’ works and never in a flattering way. He is also presented, among other masters and poets, on Isocrates’ grave in a way that appears to be consistent with his pupil’s thought. Thus, the author of the iconographic plan of the grave may have been either Isocrates himself or someone who suffi­ciently knew his works and properly understood his tempestuous rela­tionship with his master.

The architecture of the Teutonic Knight’s Castle in Malbork was finally shaped in the first half of the 14th century. It was one of the grandest aristocratic residences, being the seat of the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order from 1309 to 1457. The monumental structure testified to the power of the Order which ruled over a rich territory protected by the Patroness Blessed Virgin Mary, situated on the east side in an external niche of the presbytery of St. Anne‘s Chapel. As each castle, it performed the basic functions: that of an abbey, a strategic function of a fortress and an economic management centre. As the residence of the Grand Master it was also the capital of the monastic state. Malbork, because of the relics that were kept there, especially those of the Holy Cross, was also a pilgrimage centre. After a few centuries and the partition in 1772, when it was the venue of the homage paid by the people to the Prussian king, the Malbork Castle became more and more politicised, by linking its old Teutonic past with the current political situation in Germany, emphasizing the merits of the Order in the propagation of the German culture in this area and the Germanity of these territories, although Nazi authorities considered they should be connected only where their relics remained, such as the Castle in Malbork. The last time it became a political symbol of “the German survival power” was when it was announced a stronghold during the battles about Malbork and the castle during World War II. By abandoning and getting rid of political determinants, which distorted the truth, the International Historical Commission initiated work on a reliable and objective presentation of the history of the presence of the Teutonic Knights in Prussia. All politicised for contemporary purposes was abandoned, “considering the Teutonic Order more comprehensively than before, not only in the context of the history of Prussia. This was certainly a result of border changes after 1945, but also – hopefully – a result of common sense”. (H. Boockmann).

This article examines the commemoration practices of the Gulag in the Russian Federation. On the basis of qualitative data collected during a field research carried out in a few former lager districts (the Solovetsky Islands, Komi Republic, Perm region and Kolyma), I reconstruct a way the history of Soviet repressions was uncovered from oblivion and the process of Gulag commemoration began. Starting from the assumption that the Gulag memory was not started to working through in Russia till the end of 1980s, and that the last stage of Perestroika had a crucial influence on a way the repression past is nowadays commemorated in the country, I examine several memory projects erected in that time and show how the process of reworking the Gulag experience and presenting it in a narrative form occurred. On a base of the first exhibition dedicated to the Gulag past, SLON-Solovetsky Lager Osobogo Naznachenya, (the Solovetsky Special Purpose Camp) I reconstruct a process of rewriting history and describe how the repressive past was perceived at the end of the 1980s. In turn, analyses of meaning and social function of the monuments commemorating Gulag show that at the beginning there was a diversity of the past interpretations and that the processes of the transformation of the soft into the hard memory proceed quite quickly. However, since the mid-1990 a comeback to the traditional, well recognizable model of culture is visible. Thus, the memory of Gulag supported by the Russian Orthodox Church slowly dominates the social perception of the repressive past.

The article discusses the role of monuments as symbolic forms of contemporary tribal communities. On the example of a monument dedicated to the memory of the victims of the tragedy near Smolensk it was noted that in the absence of a dominant symbolic order in the public space, contemporary Polish tribes do not create their own competitive symbolic forms.

W artykule została omówiona rola pomników jako form symbolicznych współczesnych społeczności o charakterze plemiennym. Na przykładzie pomnika poświęconego pamięci ofiar tragedii pod Smoleńskiem zauważono, że wobec braku w przestrzeni publicznej dominującego ładu symbolicznego, współczesne polskie plemiona nie tworzą własnych, konkurencyjnych form symbolicznych.

In 1958, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the Silesian Uprisings, the administration of the Katowice Voivodeship decided to create the Silesian Panorama: an institution combining a museum of insurgents’ mementoes, the Battle of Annaberg Panorama, and the first in Poland panoramic cinema. The plans entailed establishing a museum- and-educational institution, pioneer in its character, not merely in Poland. Since the infrastructure of memory, finally unaccomplished, has never been discussed in literature, the first part of the paper speaks about the course of the organizational works, the stage of shaping the project, as well as the reasons for giving up the idea. The necessary information was provided by materials preserved in the State Archives in Katowice as well as in press releases. The planned commemoration was presented in the context of the development of the technology of panoramic cinema and its application in museum praxis; its role in the history of the efforts to create a permanent display of mementoes of Silesian Uprisings in the Katowice Voivodeship has been discussed, and so have the sources of the project’s originator to reach for the genre of a panoramic painting, in the discussed period considered anachronical.

Among the whole set of legal norms, norms that are legal principles are of particular importance. The attribute that gives a legal norm the status of a principle of law is its importance for the legal system. An important division of legal principles introduces a distinction between the principles formulated directly in the legal text (explicit principles), the principles interpreted from the legal text, although not explicitly expressed in the legal text (implicit principles), and the principles of law not expressed in legislative acts but constituting an element of legal culture (second-degree implicit principles). The law on the protection of cultural heritage is now considered to be a comprehensive branch of law, and one of the basic criteria for separating a branch of law is the possession of own principles of law, a criterion which is satisfied in relation to the catalogue of principles presented in the article, with the guiding principle being the principle of cultural heritage protection interpreted under Articles 5 and 6 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. Among other principles of the law on the protection of cultural heritage the following can be distinguished in particular (with the reservation that the catalogue presented in the article has an open character): the principle of access to monuments, the principle of social utility of monuments, the principle of access to information, the principle of control over the state of preservation of monuments, the principle of integrity of the monument, the principle of sustainable development, the principle of cultural heritage management, the principle of change in the usable value of the cultural heritage over time, the principle of financing by the monument holder, the principle of financing from public resources, principles of property protection, the principle of proportionality, the state control over the trading in monuments and the principle of the control of exporting historic objects abroad.

Pośród całego zespołu norm prawnych szczególne znaczenie mają normy będące zasadami prawa. Cechą nadającą normie prawnej status zasady prawa jest jej doniosłość dla systemu prawa. Ważny podział zasad prawa wprowadza rozróżnienie na: zasady wprost sformułowane w tekście prawnym (zasady explicite), zasady wyinterpretowywane z tekstu prawnego, choć wprost niewyrażone w tekście prawnym (zasady implicite), zasady prawa niewyrażone w aktach prawodawczych, a stanowiące składnik kultury prawnej (zasady implicite drugiego stopnia). Prawo ochrony dziedzictwa kultury jest dziś uznawane za tzw. kompleksową gałąź prawa, a jednym z podstawowych kryteriów wydzielania gałęzi prawa jest posiadanie własnych zasad prawa, które to kryterium jest spełnione wobec katalogu zasad przedstawionych w artykule, z zasadą naczelną, jaką jest wyinterpretowana z art. 5 i 6 Konstytucji RP zasada ochrony dziedzictwa kultury. Wśród innych zasad prawa ochrony dziedzictwa kultury wyróżnić można w szczególności następujące (zastrzegając, że katalog zaprezentowany w artykule ma charakter otwarty): zasada dostępu do zabytków, zasada społecznej użyteczności zabytków, zasada dostępu do informacji, zasada kontroli stanu zachowania zabytków, zasada integralności zabytku, zasada zrównoważonego rozwoju, zasada zarządzania dziedzictwem kultury, zasada zmiany wartości użytkowej dziedzictwa kultury w czasie, zasada finansowania przez posiadacza zabytku, zasada finansowania ze środków publicznych, zasady ochrony własności, zasada proporcjonalności, zasada kontroli państwa nad obrotem zabytkami oraz zasada kontroli wywozu zabytków za granicę.
