Archives in contemporary culture. Review of the qr. Konteksty. Polska Sztuka Ludowa, No. 1–2 (328–329) Archives. Deeds and conversations shall be (?) written down, Institute of Art of the PAS, Warsaw 2020, pp. 508 The author discusses the double issue of Konteksty, a magazine with materials from two conferences whose theme was the archiving of culture and cultural archives: International Conference of Institute of Polish Culture of the University of Warsaw “Les écritures des archives II. Writings of Archives II” (11–13 December 2017) and the 9th Anthropological Meeting in Zakopane “Archives. Deeds and conversations shall be (?) written down” (5–8 December 2019). The author states that the cultural dimension of archival reflection makes it possible to see beyond the horizon set by the borders of traditional archival studies. At the same time, the article makes the reader think about the need to re-evaluate commonplace terms used in archival studies and to answer the questions of what an archive is and what function it fulfils in extremely varied contemporary culture.
