Search for: [Abstract = %22Over a hundred years ago%2C Jan Stanis%C5%82aw Bystro%C5%84 became the head of the Department of Ethnology at the University of Pozna%C5%84 %5C(original name Wszechnica Piastowska%5C). He has left a huge collection of books and articles as his scientific achievements%2C which still inspire new generations of ethnologists and social researchers. His most intense scientific activity was during the inter%5C-war period%2C in which first as a professor at the University of Pozna%C5%84%2C and then at the Jagiellonian University and the University of Warsaw%2C he co%5C-created the foundations of ethnological sciences in Poland. This article focuses on two main areas%5C: institutional %5C(vision of ethnology as academic science%5C) and issues of cultural heritage. The presented text does not refer to the entire academic output of Bystro%C5%84%2C but above all concentrates on the years 1919%E2%80%931925 %E2%80%93 the period when he managed the Department of Ethnography in Pozna%C5%84. For Bystro%C5%84 it was a time of intensive academic work and the beginning of formulating many research ideas that evolved later. Ethnology%2C in the understanding of Bystro%C5%84%2C has made a kind of reorientation in the approach to the problems of the nation%2C folk%2C regionalism%2C language phenomena and history %5C(for example Polish folk history%5C). Many threads are also considered pioneering and sometimes controversial today. His theory of culture is also a pretext for reflection on the contemporary dilemmas of Polish ethnology%2C such as%5C: the disciplinary identity%2C the boundaries between sciences%2C the role of cultural capital and knowledge transfers%22]
