Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt to present ritual gestures as texts of collective memory. The first part refers to definitions and scientific approaches to collective memory understood as the image of the past contained in the text and the practice of remembering. The following section presents the definition of a ritual gesture and its distinguishing features. Then, using the example of a spring destructive gesture of drowning Marzanna, a syntactic, semantic and pragmatic analysis of the ritual gesture as a text of collective memory was carried out.
