Summary/Abstract: Mirosław Kocur's book Źródła teatru (The Sources of Theatre), published in 2013 by Wrocław University Press is devoted to rituals and performances of early and ancient peoples before the appearance of theatre. Dobrochna Ratajczakowa's review criticises the vagueness of the notion of performing used by Kocur. On the other hand, Kocur also presents an interesting attempt to link the evolution and development of ritual with such homo sapiens performances as burying the dead or ornamenting the body.
