Translation of abstract (English)
In the recent years we have observed the growing interest in Armenian culture and history - mainly the Polish-Armenian, who for hundreds of years, until the Second World War, have lived in the eastern parts of Poland and who shaped their own flourishing and unique culture. Presently, Armenian societies are getting more actives in different regions of the country, there is a growing number of scholarly publications, exhibition catalogues, academic conferences and meetings. We should welcome all the new initiatives with satisfaction, hoping, that we are witnessing - similarly to the interwar period in Lwów - a rebirth of Armenian culture. However, if we wish to call the present time with such a proud name, all the initiatives mentioned before have to meet at least average standards of reliability and stand the test of time. The publication, which is the subject of this review - Ars armeniaca: Armenian art from Polish and Ukrainian collections - even if it is a part of the aforementioned increased activity - casts a shadow on the recent activities, in most part well prepared and professionally organized, aimed at provoking deeper academic reflection on Armenian issues and their popularization.
