Summary/Abstract: Eleven short lessons show the importance of the epic figures of the sociology of religion in Poland, professors Piwowarski, Ciupak, as well as earlier ones. Memory makes it possible to understand heritage, it is a vehicle of tradition. The disinherited have nothing to look for in sociology. The inheritance of knowledge is its condition, memory is the privileged honor of those who cultivate it. The sociology of religion is a constant maneuver on its heritage, on the history of religion, and as a discipline itself comes from that peccatum originale of social sciences, in which everything that is in the possibility of researching it is placed in that which is social. As in Durkheim, it discovers the essence of what is religious in what is social. Religion no longer manifests itself except in the mystery of what is social.
