Summary/Abstract: The article is a reflection on the social memory of the inhabitants of cultural borderlands. The text is based on the results of empirical studies carried out in the village of Purda Wielka in 1948 and 2005, and consists of three parts. Each part shows the mutual relations between the macro- and micro-cultural (macro- and micro-historical) perspective, describing how major social and historical events affected everyday life. Particular parts concern the following topics: ‘‘everyday commemoration’’, forms of commemorating past events, and the impact of changes of the educational system on everyday life.
