Between the Rebellious Street and the Theatre, between Yesterday and Today
Abstract
This article discusses selected themes from Anna Kuligowska-Korzeniewska’s book Czwarty akt „Wesela”: Teatr polski wobec rewolucji 1905 roku (The Fourth Act of The Wedding: Polish Theatre and the 1905 Revolution). The reviewer places particular emphasis on historical analogies and repetitions, referring to the events of 20th century Polish history. He highlights the role of theatre in preserving social memory, accompanying anti-government rebellions, and creating the language of the revolution.
