Pamiętnik Teatralny [Theatrical Memoir] is a peer-reviewed, bilingual Polish-English academic journal focusing on the history and historiography of theater, drama, and performance. The quarterly covers mainly topics related to the broadly understood theatrical culture (especially in Poland), inviting other contexts of theater and drama studies and interdisciplinary approaches as well. Among the methodologically diverse articles we publish, the contributions based on archival documents or annotated critical editions hold a special place. Pamiętnik Teatralny also publishes essay-clusters focused on a special topic and essay-length book reviews. We welcome proposals from scholars of diverse academic and cultural backgroud, both experienced and those at the beginning of their academic careers. To ensure greater diversity, inclusivity, and equity in academic debate, we do not charge authors any fees. All texts are initially qualified by the editorial board; original research articles and review articles are subsequently double-blind peer-reviewed. Pamiętnik Teatralny is indexed in many databases (Scopus, DOAJ, Sherpa Romeo etc.), and according to the Polish MEiN list the article published in the journal is awarded 100 points.
All articles are available in open access without delay on CC BY 4.0 license. (Issues from 1/2018 to 3/2022 are available on CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license) Since 2020 the online version of issue is the original one (ISSN: 2658-2899). All the issues appear in print form as well (ISSN: 0031-0522).

CFP: Cultures of Spectatorship: Epistemic Dimensions and Perspectives
2023-10-19
Guest-edited by Torsten Jost
Pamiętnik Teatralny, a bilingual Polish-English academic quarterly published by the Institute of Art of the Polish Academy of Sciences, invites submissions for a thematic cluster exploring spectatorship in the performing arts as a historically and culturally situated, as well as materially grounded, practice of (re)generating and disseminating knowledge.
CFP: TRANSLATIONS: DRAMA AND THEATER curated by Zofia Ziemann and Paulina Kwaśniewska-Urban
2023-06-24
The translation and reception of foreign drama in Polish theater has been a recurring theme in Pamiętnik Teatralny; after all, we cannot talk about the development of drama or theater in Poland, about their dialogue with the traditions of European theater (and beyond), without taking into account the role of translations and translators. In 2024, we want to devote an independent thematic issue to translations and their histories. We welcome traditional comparative analyses examining changes to the source text and/or differences between its multiple translations, but we would also like to encourage the authors to consider translations in various contexts: literary and cultural, as well as historical, sociological, political, economic, and legal.
