Summary/Abstract: A collection of essays from different areas of psychology as well as cultural anthropology, paleogeography and geology, sociology, political philosophy, philosophy of religion, theology, history, Oriental studies, cultural studies, lexicography, pedagogy, genetics and archeology, inspired by Professor Tadeusz Tomaszewski’s theory of action and the related model of a situation. The authors show what contemporary research contributes to our understanding of the notion of a situation and what there is new to say today, almost half a century since the publication of the Professor’s text (Człowiek w sytuacji, PWN, 1975), about humans in the multitude of situations in which they are agents.
