The Polish Vernacular Culture
The book is solidly grounded in theory and methodology, but at the same time takes into account the most contemporary factual settings. Professional scientists are used to dry and uninteresting volumes, this one should give them a much needed variety. Thanks to its language the book can also acquire readers outside the strictly scientific academia, the humanities and the social sciences – it should reach students and doctoral researchers, who could greatly benefit from it, as well as to the general public.

Sacred Sites, Rituals, and Performances
The conceptual territory of religious tourism is fluid. While recreation and leisure-based motivation and behaviors are evident in religious tourism, this volume reiterates its rootedness in tenets from religious traditions and pilgrimages.

The explanations will benefit researchers and practioners alike and they can find numerous examples that show the significance of religious tourism for sustainable development of destinations.
Pamięć, wyobraźnia, praktyki oporu
Świat to skomplikowane miejsce, a my jesteśmy w gruncie rzeczy dość prości. Jak proste istoty radzą sobie z narastającą złożonością świata?

Interesowały nas procesy upraszczania rzeczywistości, w ramach których jednostki ją postrzegają i opisują, planują i podejmują działania, a także budują swoją tożsamość i ...
Acta Historiae Artium Balticae: 2
The second issue of the AHAB comes out under the title of Art and the Sacred. Ritual and religious objects, today classified as art, were once not claimed as such. Clearly, artworks that were intended for religious services were not created on purely aesthetic grounds; they were not intended to be art works per se. Nevertheless, academic practice and discourse has treated them primarily as art even though the word ‘sacred’ is placed before the word ‘art’ in these discourses. In today’s scholarship, the proliferation of anthropological research vividly indicates the tensions that exist between art and what is considered sacred.
