Etnografia na łamach pisma „Poznaj Świat” w świetle reportaży A. L. Godlewskiego, E. Karwota i B. Malkina

Abstract

“Poznaj Świat” is a geographic journal that was established at the end of 1948 out of the initiative of the Cracovian geographers associated with the Polish Geographical Society. Although the journal mainly focused on geographical themes, it didn’t lack articles or notes of ethnographic nature. The group of authors and contributors of the journal also included ethnologists and culture anthropologists like Aleksander Lech Godlewski and Edward Karwot. Boris Malkin (Małkin) had a special place among authors of “Poznaj Świat”. He was an ethnologist, naturalist, collector, photographer, documentalist and researcher of the South Americas indigenous peoples culture. Of the 53 scientific and popular science articles of this great researcher were published in polish, 50 of which appeared in “Poznaj Świat” for the first time.
