Abstract
The article "Komiksem w historię" discusses, on the basis of selected examples of Polish and foreign comic books, the artistic modes of representation of historical events, primarily the Holocaust. The author puts the comic book medium in the context of tension between high and low culture, and in the context of this medium's appropriateness for the gravity of “historical narration”. The author analyses, among others, comic books by: Art Spiegelman, Joe Kubert, Krzysztof Gawronkiewicz and Krystian Rosenberg, Jason Lutes, as well as Joe Sacco or Frederik Peeters. The article outlines some characteristic tropes, shows the variety and importance of historical and contemporary issues, dealt with by the cartoonists and scriptwriters.
