The journal provides not only space for presentation of current research results but also helps to verify new methodological approaches and possibilities of involving the so far neglected source basis and secondary literature. The current issue of the journal Oriens Aliter, together with the previous issues, seeks to fulfil the goal of the founders of the periodical, i.e. to look at the complex region of Central and Eastern Europe both in the broader European (Western) context, and in the interrelationships between ethnic and cultural entities across the regions. The fourth issue of the periodical presents the work of not only established professionals but also novice authors. The article by Galina Babak, a Ph.D. student at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University (On the Question of the Ukrainian Reception of Russian Formalism: Dmytro Chyzhevsky versus Boris Eichenbaum) presents comparative analysis of two earlier studies on the subject of Gogol’s Overcoat. The factors complicating and slowing the development of Ukrainian-Polish relations in the 1990s are mapped by the article of Ihor Hurak, Associate Professor at the Precarpathian National University of Vasyl Stefanyk (Ukraine and Poland: Challenges to Strategic Partnership). Václav Ježek, a Ph.D. student at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University, deals in his article (Some Aspects of Russian Ecclesial and State Policy in Palestine with Particular Reference to the Nineteenth Century) with the presence of the Russians in Palestine, primarily . 5 . in the 19th century, and analyses the contribution of the Russian Church in the fields of education and Orthodox Christianity in Palestine. The development and transformation of the conception analysing borders of the Tsarist power in the Muscovian Russian literature in the context of the events of the Time of Troubles period are examined in the article of a Ph.D. student at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University, Olga Leshkova (The Conception of the Tsar’s Divine Authority in Muscovian Historical Texts on the Time of Troubles). Professor Volodymyr Okarynskyi, working at the Ternopil National Pedagogical University of Volodymyr Hnatyuk, devoted his text (Rock Music in Everyday Life of Youth in Western Ukraine under the Soviet Regime /1960 – early 1980s/) to a topic that has not yet come to the forefront of the scientific interest of historians or anthropologists. The conference report by Olga Leshkova maps the course of the international conference Identity in the Eastern and South-Eastern Europe between the Regional and (Supra-) National Model, which took place at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University, in December 2015 and was attended by around 20 professional historians and literary historians from the Czech Republic, Germany, Ukraine, Poland and Russia. During this conference the journal Oriens Aliter was also presented. The editorial board of the journal believes that texts published in this number of Oriens Aliter will find their readers not only among Czech and foreign experts, but also the public interested in the issues of Central and Eastern Europe.

STUDIES Galina Babak ON THE QUESTION OF THE UKRAINIAN RECEPTION OF RUSSIAN FORMALISM: DMYTRO CHYZHEVSKY VERSUS BORIS EICHENBAUM Dmytro Chyzhevsky,1 an Ukrainian Slavic, literary and cultural historian, wrote article About Gogol’s “Overcoat”,2 which appeared in 1938 in the Russian immigrant journal Современные записки.3 During his life, Chyzhevsky wrote three articles about Nikolai Gogol which were later combined into the paper Gogol’-Studien.4 The earliest of the above mentioned articles was About Gogol’s “Overcoat”.5 According to the Ukrainian literary critic S. Matvienko, this study was written “at the time when 1 Dmytro Chyzhevsky (1894–1977) was born in the Russian Empire, in Alexandria, Kherson Oblast (now it is a part of Ukraine). During the civil war he supported the Mensheviks and in 1921 he emigrated. Following these events, his scientific career was connected with teaching at Universities of the Czechoslovak Republic, Germany, and the United States. His most famous works were in the fields of history of philosophy and literature: Hegel in Russia, The History of Philosophy in the Ukraine, Philosophy of G. S. Skovoroda, The History of Ukrainian literature and others. 2 Чижевский, Д. О., «Шинели» Гоголя, Современные записки, 1938, т. 67, 172–195. 3 Современные записки – a Russian literary immigrant journal which was published between 1920– 1940 in Paris. The journal was created at the initiative of the Right Socialist-Revolutionaries and with the participation of Alexander Kerensky. It was supported by the President of the Czechoslovak Republic T. G. Masaryk, who provided a “material assistance to the cause of Russian freedom and culture”. (q. v. Вишняк, М., Воспоминания редактора, Современные записки, 1957, т. 7, 89–90.) The journal considered its main task the consolidation of creative forces of the Russian diaspora. It united almost all of the major writers of the first wave of Russian emigration. Among the regular contributors to the journal were N. Berdyaev, S. Bulgakov, N. Lossky, L. Shestov, L. Karsavin and others. 4 Tschižewskij, D., Gogol’-Studien, in: Zur russischen Literatur des 19.

Rydlówka 24, Kraków Introduction Between 1963 and 1970, as part of its series Elementa ad Fontiun Editiones, the Polish Historical Institute in Rome issued Documenta polonica ex Archivo Generali Hispaniae in Simancas, seven volumes of documents pertinent to the history of Poland edited by Rev. Walerian Meysztowicz.1 The collections in Simancas are not only important for understanding Polish-Spanish relations, but also very effectively illustrate Poland’s foreign policy in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and the role the country played in the international arena. In this respect, the Spanish holdings are second only to the Vatican archives. In terms of the quality and quantity of information, not even the holdings of the Vienna archives illuminate Poland’s European politics on such a scale. Meysztowicz was well aware of this, opening his introduction (Introductio) to the first part of the publication with the sentence: “Res gestae Christianitatis sine Archivo Septimacensi cognosci vix possunt.”2 1 Elementa ad Fontium Editiones, vol.

  • Ambassadors in Golden-Age Madrid the Court of Philip IV Through Foreign Eyes
    Ambassadors in Golden-Age Madrid The Court of Philip IV through Foreign Eyes edited by Jorge Fernández-Santos and José Luis Colomer prologue by John H. Elliott epilogue by Miguel-Ángel Ochoa Brun Nationalism and Transnationalism in the Court of Spain | 13 Prologue: Nationalism and Transnationalism in the Court of Spain John H. Elliott In the summer of 1963 Lord Hailsham, at that time the British Minister for Science, came back from Moscow, where he had been sent as the emissary of the Prime Minister, Harold Macmillan, to take part in negotiations being conducted with the Russians for partial nuclear disarmament. He returned to London with presents for Macmillan from his opposite number, Nikita Kruschev, the Premier of the Soviet Union. These consisted of caviar, crab meat and wine. Macmillan reciprocated with a vase and some Stilton cheese.1 It was one further, and rather banal, episode in the long story of diplomatic gift-giving that is a central theme of this book. Madrid, the seat of the Spanish court since 1561, was a great, and perhaps the greatest, European centre for the exchange of diplomatic gifts during the later sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Effectively the capital of a world- wide monarchy, the Monarquía española, Madrid exercised a gravitational pull over the representatives of the other states of Europe, whether they were en- emies or rivals, allies or satellites of the Spanish crown. At least until the 1640s and 1650s, when Spain’s European hegemony ceased to be taken for granted, the Spanish Habsburg monarchs, Philip II, Philip III and Philip IV, enjoyed a commanding position on the international stage.

  • Kovács György Életút-Interjú
    Kovács György életút-interjú Készítette: Rozsonits Tamás A beszélgetés időpontja: 2015. november 13, Budapest, II. kerület Szerkesztett, tömörített, lábjegyzetekkel ellátott változat. Rozsonits Tamás: Mesélj a családodról, kérlek. Kovács György: Budapesten, Kőbányán születtem 1942. február 4-én és ott is nőttem fel. Édesapám nagyon korán meghalt, így öcsémmel együtt édesanyánk nevelt minket. Rozsonits Tamás: Volt hagyománya a családban a művészeteknek, ezen belül a zenének? Kovács György: A művészetek iránti indíttatásom nem a családban gyökerezett. Amikor választanom kellett, hogy zenész legyek-e, édesanyám kijelentette, hogy szó sem lehet róla, először legyen egy „becsületes” szakma a kezemben, csak utána mehetek zenélni. Egész gyermekkoromban rajongtam a klasszikusokért és az operákért. Számomra a legnagyobb ajándékot az Operák könyve1 jelentette, kívülről tudtam kedvenc szerzőim életrajzát és minden művük sztoriját. Abban a korban voltam gyerek, amikor megjelent a „hosszan játszó” lemez, a 33 1/3-os fordulatú LP, nekem az maga volt a csoda. Az otthoni lemezjátszónk elég gyakran meghibásodott (mert kikopott a dörzskerék talán az általam okozott extra igénybevételtől), de volt egy Standard2 márkájú rádiónk is. Akkoriban – szemben a mostani korral – elég sok zenés rádióműsor készült. Azokat hallgattam éjjel-nappal. Éjszaka fejhallgatón. Abban az időben nem került nagyon sokba a lemez, a zsebpénzemből mindig össze tudtam rakni a rávalót. De – szemben Miklós öcsémmel, aki inkább a beatzenéhez érezte magát közel, aztán újságíróként sok zenei kötődésű cikket, kritikát írt és számos zenésszel készített interjút – én nagyon elutasítottam az akkori tánczenét, nem voltam hajlandó meghallgatni. Rozsonits Tamás: És mikor és kezdtél el zenét tanulni? Kovács György: Gyermekkoromban kezdtem zongorázni, de amikor elértem arra a szintre, hogy már minden nap kellett volna gyakorolni, viszont nem volt zongoránk és meguntam a szívességkéréseket, rákényszerültem arra, hogy más hangszerre váltsak.

The article covers the phenomenon of rock music in the lives of young residents of the western regions of Soviet Ukraine, which differed significantly from the rest of the territory of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic and the entire USSR. The article demonstrates the peculiarities among which this music was mastered, its existence in the youth society – from fashionable dance music to the core of nonconformitsm to the Soviet system. It was reflected in the names officially and unofficially used for rock music and its performers (Big beat, vocal-instrumental ensemble, etc.), as well as in relation to official factors (from tolerance to the prohibition). Consumers of rock music did not necessarily have to be opposed to the Soviet regime. However, the active “immersion” in rock music, and the related counterculture spheres (from the late 1960s onwards, and more and more), contributed to the formation of an alternative life style, which manifested itself in particular: listening to banned radio stations, the style of clothing that was associated with rock music, space for free performance / listening to rock music and exchanging information and impressions (“tusovka”).
