In a way, it is a review of the book “Archaeology and other things… A contribution to the thirtieth anniversary of the archaeological expedition of the Leningrad Palate of Pioneers” edited in St.-Petersburg in 2002. It is a large volume (of over 500 pages) written by its 65 authors for their own pleasure; it is a collective book compiled of personal memoirs, memories, but at the same time it turns to be extremely interesting for any reader. It tells about the longstanding archaeological expedition to Siberia organized by the school archaeological club at the Leningrad Palate of Pioneers. It was a real expedition, in which the schoolchildren from Leningrad worked under the leadership of several professional archaeologists. Dozens of schoolchildren spent summers in this expedition, collecting impressions, building their life and work skills through participation in collective activities. The author of this review analyses the environment conditioning the schoolchildren’s activities in that far-away and harsh expedition, shows its heroes doing their complicated and necessary business.

In the review two recent books on the archaeological theory and methods are critically considered. The first of them is the book by Yu.L. Shchapova “Introduction to artefactology” (2000). The second book is “Systematic classification of archaeological science” (2000) by Yu.P. Kholyushkin and E.D. Grazhdannikov. The author finds the classification and systematization schemes presented in the books rather contradictory and insufficiently elaborated.

Wszyscy, którym w Polsce leży na sercu sprawa chorału gregoriańskiego, mogą się cieszyć wydaną w 2013 roku książką Laus in Ecclesia. Szkoła śpiewu gregoriań- skiego, która jest przekładem polskim książki pod tym samym tytułem, wydanej rok wcześniej we Francji przez Schola Saint Grégoire (Szkoła św. Grzegorza). Autorem niniejszej książki, a właściwie podręcznika, jest nie jedna osoba, ale kilka osób skupionych wokół tejże szkoły, która ma swoją siedzibę w Le Mans w środkowej Francji. Osoby te swoje długoletnie poszukiwania i prace poświęciły zgłę- bianiu chorału gregoriańskiego rozumianego jako narzędzie ewangelizacji. Podręcznik jest zatem owocem tych doświadczeń i prezentuje nie tylko kompletny kurs śpiewu gregoriańskiego, ale także pewną jego interpretację, która za punkt wyjścia uznaje doświadczenie mnichów benedyktyńskich z Solesmes. Niezależnie od tego, czy ktoś się z tą metodą zgadza, czy nie, autorom niniejszej książki należy się wielki szacunek za wysiłek włożony w próbę usystematyzowania i przekazania metody Szkoły św. Grzegorza szerokiemu gronu odbiorców.
