Pamięć o dawnym teatrze

The text constitutes an attempt at summarising the presence of old-theatre, and especially old-Polish-theatre, related themes in Pamiętnik Teatralny. In particular, who among theatre scholars, literature historians, historians of art, musicologists or historians studying the older epochs collaborated with our quarterly? Then, what were the subjects addressed (old European theatre, old Polish spectacles, Oriental traditions) and what monographic issues were devoted to the stages of the First Polish Republic or the beginnings of the National Theatre. The last part of the article deals with the policy of successive editorial boards concerning the presence of old theatre history in Pamiętnik Teatralny.
