Is memory studies a secular enterprise? This timely intervention from Bogumił and Głowacka-Grajper contends that, while religiously inflected forms of remembering may not be ignored by scholarship, they are not receiving as much attention as they deserve. The authors of this study, which builds on their collaborative research project Milieux de Mémoire in Eastern Europe – the Polish Case Study (2014–2017), analyze the intersections between religious practice, local commemoration, and national history. Their empirical focus is the memory of the Second World War in the Polish countryside: they carry out ethnographic work, museum analyses, and interviews in four localities where war commemoration is a major aspect of community life: Kałków-Godów, Michniów, Jedwabne, and Markowa. The result is a fascinating exploration of these lesser-known (other than Jedwabne) sites of memory in Poland, with an emphasis on religious and vernacular commemoration.

书评：近现代晚期的米勒博物馆：当地社区，宗教和历史政治

记忆研究是世俗的事业吗？Bogumił和Głowacka-Grajper的及时干预主张，尽管学术上可能不会忽略宗教上受到影响的记忆形式，但他们并未得到应有的重视。这项研究的作者建立在他们在东欧的合作研究项目Milieux deMémoire–波兰案例研究的基础上（2014–2017），分析宗教活动，当地纪念活动和民族历史之间的交集。他们的经验重点是对波兰农村第二次世界大战的记忆：他们在四个地区进行民族志研究，博物馆分析和访谈，在这些地区，战争纪念是社区生活的主要方面：Kałków-Godów，Michniów，Jedwabne和马科瓦 结果是对这些鲜为人知的（除了吉德瓦恩之外）在波兰的记忆地点进行了有趣的探索，重点是宗教和白话纪念活动。
