Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 8vo (23 cm), 9 pp. Printed wrappers (wrappers slightly creased, remnant of paper label and number written on front wrapper, paper somewhat toned). Inscribed "od autora" (from the author) on the title-page. A scarce Polish-language offprint extracted from the ethnographic quarterly Lud, vol. XXXV… (1938), published by the Ethnological Society in Lwów. In this methodological essay, ethnographer Jan Falkowski critiques the traditional tripartite division of folk culture into material, social, and spiritual categories and proposes a more integrated and dynamic framework for ethnographic research, particularly suited to monographic village studies. He outlines a structured plan for ethnographic works in five parts: geographic and environmental description, material culture (including tools, agriculture, crafts, dyeing, and pottery), social organization, seasonal customs and folk literature, and synthetic conclusions. A methodologically significant pre-war contribution to Polish ethnographic theory, with desirable author's presentation provenance. Inscribed by Author(s).
