Summary/Abstract: The first part of the article outlines a theoretical framework for the functioning of various descriptions of the past in the present. Three basic narrative perspectives are distinguished here: the scientific perspective, the perspective of memory, and the political perspective. A thesis has been put forward that in different texts these perspectives are often mixed up, and a dominant role is played by an ethnohistorical paradigm. The second part of the studyfocuses on reasons for misunderstandings in the scholarly community about the interpretation of events that occurred in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia in 1943–1944.
