Abstract:
The text indicates a few problems of historical research, which were interestingly taken in the book by Marta Kurkowska-Budzan and Marcin Stasiak "Stadium on the periphery". They are connected above all with: methods of metaphorization used in historical narrative, problematization of the relationship of time experienced and the time of historical narrative, construction of a historical event, the center's and periphery's relationship as a relation of domination and the relationships between the investigators and the respondents. In conclusion, I point to the value of the non-standard approach used by the authors and the traps that are associated with it.
