More than 50 participants from 19 sections and 14 countries had an opportunity to enjoy a week of fruitful historical debate and tempting sights of Ljubljana in summer and to learn about the history and culture of Slovenia. The main purpose of the seminar was to offer the participants a space for constructive cross-cultural discussion and exchange of opinions and experiences. Taking into consideration the current socio-political circumstances, we chose the topic Crises and development. We tried to search for parallels between the past periods of depression and the present critical momentum. Crises have always been decisive moments in history, moments of condensed action. Therefore, we thought it would be interesting to explore whether there were any periods that were not considered critical by the contemporary reports. The participants were divided into six workshops and were encouraged to present their original papers and discuss various aspects of the main topic. The first workshop Crises and Politics (moderated by Neja Blaj Hribar and Aljoša Vuksanović) examined to what extent the political system can be held (co)responsible for crises, if any form of crisis necessarily leads to a political crisis and elicits a political change, and at last, the role of radical political movements in crises. The second workshop Crisis and Material Determinism (moderated by Dragan Nikčević) reopened the question of material determinism – to what extent are crises a direct result of material preconditions; and to what extent is development a direct result of the ability to overcome the aforementioned preconditions. The third workshop Crisis and the Pre- Modern Era (moderated by Izidor Janžeković and Mitja Rous) approached the problem of crises in the Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Era. It took a closer look at how the contemporaries searched for the causes of crises and their solutions, considering various economic, environmental, ideological, and cultural aspects. The fourth workshop Culture in Crisis (moderated by Irina Lešnik and Jernej Kotar) explored the question whether culture has to end in a crisis in order to successfully develop further and reviewed the relationship between economy and culture – does the economic prosperity provide greater 8 resources for art or does it gradually intervene with cultural freedom? The fifth workshop Woman and Crisis (moderated by Martin Nedoh and Saša Zvonar) focused on the moments of transition that represent availed or missed opportunities in the emancipation of the other sex. Every time of crisis represented a certain change in the status of women, which was not always negative. As a consequence, an approach appeared that sees crisis as a product of a man’s world and therefore calls for more women getting involved in the decision-making process. The sixth workshop Development and Crisis between Modernity and History (moderated by Miha Šoba and Boris Cesar) dealt with the relationship between crisis and development in different historic situations, asked if someone’s crisis can be someone else’s progress and discussed which elements allow us to compare crises and what methods we use for comparison. The common theme of all workshops was the question of the role of historians in the time of crisis – are we simply objective reporters providing the society with historical data or should we use our knowledge and experience to actively influence current events? At the end of the seminar, we did not want all the meaningful words and original ideas expressed by the participants to fade away. This is why we decided to publish selected papers in a special edition of our publication. During the editing process we tried to keep our interventions within the texts as small as possible, so that the historical interpretation of the chosen topics would solely be left to their authors. However, we tried to make all the titles, subtitles, footnotes and bibliographies follow the same pattern in all published papers. We apologize in advance for any mistakes or omissions you might find while reading the publication. Every great story must come to an end. In conclusion, we would like to express our gratitude to some very important people. A special thanks goes to two incredible persons who put the most effort and energy into making the summer seminar an unforgettable experience. The first is Maja Lukanc, the seminar coordinator, head organizer and motivator. The second person who deserves a special mention is Patricija Kunštek, the long-time president of ISHA Ljubljana. During her presidency and under her supervision, ISHA Ljubljana developed even further; its members organized various extracurricular activities for the students of our department and set up the groundwork for our most important challenge thus far: the 2014 Summer Seminar. We would also like to thank the organizing team – each of you contributed an important piece to the incredible puzzle we created together. Thank you, Neja Blaj Hribar, Martin Nedoh, Lara Kren, Miha Šoba, Saša Zvonar, Irina Lešnik, Dragan Nikčević, Aljoša Vuksanović, Izidor Janžeković, Mitja Rous, Jernej Kotar, Boris Cesar, Maja Piuzi, Nejc Kunštek, Jože Glavič, Grega Mejak, Ivan Žgavec. Another group of people we would like to extend our thanks to are the reviewers, who took the time to comment on the papers and improved their quality even further. Without our sponsors we could not publish this publication; thank you. The last, but not the least important contributor to our work is the Department of History, which has offered us both financial and moral support throughout our journey. We would like to extend a special thanks to the current Head of the Department asst. prof. Danijela Trškan, PhD, for her unwavering support. Editors 9 Russia 1905-1917: The constitutional experiment Victoria Buck, University of Kent ISHA Kent, [email protected] According to recent and traditional historiography, there was widespread agreement that the Russian autocracy was unworkable in a society that was rapidly modernising. In 1905, Tsar Nicholas II had the choice to create a constitutional monarchy, and give the Russian people real representation, or he could let the revolution continue its course and endanger his position as Tsar. For Nicholas, there was only one solution: to create a constitutional monarchy. There was very little agreement among the prominent intellectuals of the time about how to achieve this. The necessity and possibility of creating a constitutional monarchy which had seemed palpable in 1905 became impossible by 1917. INTRODUCTION This article will focus on the reasons why it was so difficult to establish an effective constitutional monarchy in Russia under Nicholas II and the successive Provisional Government. I will do this firstly

  • The History of Books and Libraries in Bohemia
    Digital Editing of Medieval Manuscripts - Intellectual Output 1: Resources for Editing Medieval Texts (Paleography, Codicology, Philology) The history of books and libraries in Bohemia Michal Dragoun (Charles Univeristy in Prague) While books were initially rare in medieval Bohemia, they would come to play an important role in the lives of all social classes by the end of the Middle Ages. The pace of that advancement was not, however, constant. Many factors contributed to spread of books and to their use, some of them pushed the advancement forward significantly, others less significantly. Books were initially a monopoly of the Church and its institutions but gradually, the circle of book users extended to the laity and more and more texts came to be written in vernacular languages. Acknowledging the abundance or research into medieval books and libraries more generally, this overview will comment only on the most significant moments in the book culture of medieval Bohemia. There are two fundamental turning points in the history of Medieval Bohemian book culture – these were the establishment of a university in Prague, and the Hussite Reformation. To provide a brief overview of types of libraries, it is necessary to categorize them and study the development of individual categories. In any case, the Hussite period was the real turning point for a number of them. Sources The sheer abundance of sources provides the basis for a comprehensive overview of Bohemian book culture. The manuscripts themselves are the most significant source. However, the catalogues used to study Bohemian collections tend to be very old. As a result, the records are often incomplete and contextual information is often unavailable.

It has been built in the path of the Amber Trail connecting Northern and Southern Europe. It is a part of the expressway from Gdańsk to Vienna. 20 km are in operation, 33 km in preparation. Maximum transport intensity is 42,000 vehicles per 24 hours. A part of the motorway was built in line of the motorway from 1939 which should have connected Vienna and Wroclaw and which has never been completed due to the war. The section from Brno to Pohořelice is in operation since 1996. The finishing of the highway is blocked by environmental activists. They argue mainly with environmental damage of a sensible territory, with increasing transport load by transit and they suggest different option namely using D2 motorway (section Brno-Břeclav) and its linking-up in direction to the Vienna. Austrian side is constructing the motorway Wien – Drassenhofen which should connect the Czech R52 near Mikulov. In 2010 Supreme Administrative Court accepted suggestions of two municipalities (Bavory and Dolní Dunajovice) and some natural persons and cancelled the territorial plan of the Břeclav district including the R52 road.

    Synoikism, Urbanization, and Empire in the Early Hellenistic Period by Ryan Anthony Boehm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Emily Mackil, Chair Professor Erich Gruen Professor Mark Griffith Spring 2011 Copyright © Ryan Anthony Boehm, 2011 ABSTRACT SYNOIKISM, URBANIZATION, AND EMPIRE IN THE EARLY HELLENISTIC PERIOD by Ryan Anthony Boehm Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology University of California, Berkeley Professor Emily Mackil, Chair This dissertation, entitled “Synoikism, Urbanization, and Empire in the Early Hellenistic Period,” seeks to present a new approach to understanding the dynamic interaction between imperial powers and cities following the Macedonian conquest of Greece and Asia Minor. Rather than constructing a political narrative of the period, I focus on the role of reshaping urban centers and regional landscapes in the creation of empire in Greece and western Asia Minor. This period was marked by the rapid creation of new cities, major settlement and demographic shifts, and the reorganization, consolidation, or destruction of existing settlements and the urbanization of previously under- exploited regions. I analyze the complexities of this phenomenon across four frameworks: shifting settlement patterns, the regional and royal economy, civic religion, and the articulation of a new order in architectural and urban space. The introduction poses the central problem of the interrelationship between urbanization and imperial control and sets out the methodology of my dissertation. After briefly reviewing and critiquing previous approaches to this topic, which have focused mainly on creating catalogues, I point to the gains that can be made by shifting the focus to social and economic structures and asking more specific interpretive questions.
