I am interested in how religious culture's conceptual scope and semantics and the contexts of religious phenomena in Eastern Europe have changed in current studies. Research in the last decade of the twentieth century included religious knowledge, local interpretations of the Bible, knowledge of the Apocrypha, magical thinking, and its relationship to religiosity. The study aimed to determine what people believe in and the rituals accompanying it. The approach has changed, as studies published in the book show. Scholars were less interested in faith and its reconstruction and more in how Catholic communities and religious institutions were organized.}, type={Text}, title={Zmiany w kulturze religijnej mniejszości katolickich w Polsce i Ukrainie}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/iae/Content/240580/276879.pdf}, keywords={Ukraine, Poland, Catholic minorities, religion, religious culture, post-Soviet religious life, comparative studies}, }
