Abstract:
Looking on the past of every city, we can identify various events that remain in the memory of the history of the Jewish community underwent transformation for the long decades of the undoubtedly the functioning of the Jewish ghetto. But it has not always been so: the memory 20th century, only to become part of the canon of events that are important for the city. As late we can read from the contents present in everyday press, in the calendar of anniversary cel nationalities returns. as 15-20 years ago, images of tódź focused on the multicultural history of the city were ate so common, and were rather an element of collective oblivion. But since then, something that ebrations or the topographical tissue of commemoration, the memory of neighbors of otherstudies of the collective memory of Łódź residents were carried out, and focused precisely paper, on these carriers. Beginning with the reflection related to the memory canon and the role of memory images of the multicultural Łódź in the context of other themes of collective memory (diagnosed by means of questionnaire interviews), reflections on the Jewish tódź were also deepened by observation of specific commemorative actions and the material manifestationsof this memory - statutes and plaques that have been gradually appearing in the city in the early decades of the 21st century. And although research results show that "blank spots" have been temporarily filled by frequent cultural references in culture, tourism or art, it is worthwhile to ask to what extent this memory is rooted in the actions and emotions of contemporary Łódź residents.
