Był tutaj prawdziwy słoń. Wokół teorii kultury C. Geertza

Abstract

In the article, the author tries to show a transformation in anthropology, as a result of which the
concept of culture moves to sociology. The paper is divided into three parts. In the first one the
author, with Clifford Geertz, makes a criticism of structuralism. In the second part, she explains,
what does the concept of meaning mean to Geertz and what role does it play in the process of
culture moving to sociology. In the last part, the author analyzes the concept of a local knowledge,
because this knowledge embodies of this all transformation.
