Tekst opiera się na wynikach toczących się jeszcze pogłębionych badań etnograficznych. Dotyczą one gospodarstw domowych, w których co najmniej jedna osoba pracuje na zasadach telepracy. W artykule wskazujemy na wpływ telepracy na przestrzeń́ prywatną oraz na kształtowanie praktyk życia codziennego. Prezentujemy konsekwencje, jakie niesie ze sobą „powrót” pracy do domu dla samych telepracowników oraz dla członków ich rodzin. Opisujemy proces powstawania i utrzymywania granic między sferą prywatną, a sferą pracy, który – w opinii badaczy, jak i samych telepracowników – jest kluczowy dla zachowania równowagi między życiem prywatnym i zawodowym w przypadku pracy prowadzonej zdalnie z własnego domu.

This article is based on partial results of ongoing in-depth ethnographic research. This research studies households in which at least one person telecommutes. In this article, we point to the impact of telework on private space and on the development of practices of everyday life. We present the consequences of a "return" of work to the home for both telecommuters and other members of their households. We describe the process of creating and maintaining boundaries between the private sphere and the sphere of work. In the opinion of both researchers and teleworkers, borders are essential to maintaining a balance between private and professional life for those working from home.

The oldest ethnographic collections from outside Europe which today form part of the collection of the Ethnographic Museum in Cracow were first exhibited in 1886 and came, on the one hand, from the Siberian collection of Bendykt Dybowski, which he had brought along when returning from his exile, and on the other hand, from the Cameroon collection that had been gathered by the first Polish expedition to Africa. At that time Cracow (Kraków) lacked the necessary institutions to deal with such collections, and that is why a permanent exhibition could be organised only after the Ethnographic Museum was set up in Cracow in the year 1911, and when it obtained exhibition space at the Royal Castle in Wawel. In 1939, the Second World War caused a break in the Museum's activities and the Museum had to abandon the castle. After the war, the Museum was housed in the former Town Hall of Kazimierz (now part of Cracow), and it was there that the Museum's exotic collections were transferred. It was not until 1951, however, that the possibility appeared of making them available to students and research workers. Soon afterwards, in response to an attempt by the emergent Museum of Folk Cultures in Warsaw to take over all the collections of non-European collections in Poland, a special division of Non-European Ethnography was established at the Cracow Ethnographic Museum, headed by J. Kamocki, which, in the years to follow, organized several dozen exhibitions in Cracow and in other cities in Poland. As time went by, the exotic collections grew, supplied by donations from other museum which had small exotic ethnographic collections, as well as from soldiers of the Polish Aremd Forces in the West, who donated exhibits that they had gathered in the Middle East and Africa during the war, from Polish missionaries to Oceania, from B. Małkin (Latin American exhibits) and A. Wawrzyniak (exhibits from Indonesia and Nepal). Membeers of the Museum's staff, J. Kamocki and K. Wolski, conducted research and amassed collections for the Museum in Indonesia, India, Nepal and Afghanistan. The growing collections could have allowed the Museum to work out a conception of a permanent exhibition of the Musem and they even would have made possible the establishment of a separate Museum of Non-European Ethnography. Unfortunetaly the Ethnographic Museum abandoned any such plans and today its exotic collections are exhibited only on an occasional basis.

The article deals with oriental themes in the history textbooks of K.J. Skrzetuski Historia powszechna dla szkół narodowych na klasę III and Przypisy do historii powszechnej na klasę III. The two books are devoted to the history of the Ancient East. In the introduction, the author of the article writes about the interest in the Orient shown during the Age of Enlightenment, which was connected with the modern historiographie convention which a made a break with Eurocentrism. He then proceeds to show the sources used by Skrzetuski. Skrzetuski made use only of Classical authors and, in line with modern conceptions, he decided to disregard the Bible as a historical source. The author believes, however, that the Bible could have had an impact on the picture of the Ancient East as presented by Skrzetuski. He then analyzes the visions of particular oriental countries and peoples presented in the two textbooks. After a comparative analysis of the works of Classical writers and books of the Bible, the author concludes that Skrzetuski was not very accurate in using the former, while the latter probably had an impact on his emotional attitude towards the countries, people, and personnages, which he described and evaluated in ethical terms. Skrzetuski's assessments invariably followed Classical and biblical stereotypes. The vision of the reality that Skrzetuski presented was a deliberately simplified one; this was done for educational purposes, which Skrzetuski found to be of prime importance. The description of the rise and fall of Oriental countries was in his view to be a lesson of the repeatability of history, a lesson from which conclusions were to be drawn for the future. The examples from history were to shape moral and patriotic attitudes, with the objective of providing information taking a second place.
