Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe, 1500-1700
Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe, 1500–1700 In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries Muscovy waged a costly struggle against the Crimean Khanate, the Ottoman Empire, and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth for control of the fertile steppe above the Black Sea. This was a region of great strategic and economic importance – arguably the pivot of Eurasia at the time. Yet, this crucial period in Russia’s history has, up until now, been neglected by historians. Brian L. Davies’s study provides an essential insight into the emergence of Russia as a great power. The long campaign took a great toll upon Russia’s population, economy, and institutions, and repeatedly frustrated or redefi ned Russian military and diplo- matic projects in the West. The struggle was every bit as important as Russia’s wars in northern and central Europe for driving the Russian state-building process, forcing military reform and shaping Russia’s visions of Empire. Warfare, State and Society on the Black Sea Steppe, 1500–1700 examines the course of this struggle and explains how Russia’s ultimate prevalence resulted from new strategies of military colonization in addition to improvements in army command-and-control, logistics, and tactics. Brian L. Davies is Associate Professor of History at the University of Texas at San Antonio.

DAY 6—TUESDAY, JUNE 12 on to Ivano-Frankivsk
DAY 6—TUESDAY, JUNE 12 On to Ivano-Frankivsk I was up at 6:00 am and beat the wake-up call. I packed my bags for our next leg of the tour, to Ivano-Frankivsk. Ivano-Frankivsk is about 135 kilometer south-east of Lviv. On the way we would stop in the town of Rohatyn to see the statue dedicated to Roksolana, Rohatyn’s greatest pride. We had our final breakfast at the Opera Hotel, and lugged our bags to the lobby. Our bus pulled up at 9:05 am and we met our driver, Myroslav. He spoke very little English, so Romana acted as our interpreter. This would be our first introduction to the quality of the roads. We had heard horror stories about the many pot-holes festooning Ukraine’s highways. The road leaving Lviv is in good shape and it wasn’t until we started to go through some of the towns that we encountered rough driving. We were on the look-out for storks and their large nests, often found on top of light standards. Storks are supposed to bring good luck, so their nests are left alone. We reached Rohatyn at 11:15 and pulled over adjacent the main town square where a monument to Roksolana stands. Roksolana Our driver left the bus to locate someone who would explain who Roksolana was, and her importance. He came back with a young woman who proceeded to deliver an interesting account of Roksolana’s history. She explained that Rohatyn was the birth-place of Nastya (Anastasia) Lisovska, who later became known as Roksolana. -
Szlak Jana III Sobieskiego W Województwie Świętokrzyskim
Załącznik nr 6 do SOPZ Szlak Jana III Sobieskiego w województwie świętokrzyskim Bebelno W wystawionym w XVIII w. drewnianym kościele pw. Narodzenia Najświętszej Marii Panny, w posadzce nawy tuż przed prezbiterium, znajdowała się szara, marmurowa płyta nagrobna pochodząca z XVII w. i umieszczona pierwotnie we wcześniejszej świątyni. W każdym z narożników miała skute tarcze herbowe1, ale z zapisów wiadomo, że przedstawiały one niegdyś czytelne herby: Oksza Gosławskich, Jastrzębiec, Janina i Kolumna2. Podczas remontu posadzki, około 1972-1973 r., tablicy nie wyeksponowano, lecz przykryto nowymi płytkami i w rezultacie obecnie nie jest widoczna. 1 Katalog zabytków sztuki w Polsce. T.

The Cases of Ła ´Ncut and Włodawa
arts Article The Question of Appropriateness. Museums Established in Synagogues in Communist Poland: The Cases of Ła ´ncutand Włodawa Kinga Migalska Prints and Drawings Cabinet, National Museum in Kraków, 3 May Street, 30-062 Kraków, Poland; [email protected] Received: 9 November 2019; Accepted: 12 December 2019; Published: 17 December 2019 Abstract: World War II and the subsequent period of communist rule severely diminished the amount of historic Jewish architecture in Poland. It is estimated that in the mid-1990s there were about 321 synagogues and prayer houses in the country, all in various states of preservation. This article examines two case studies of synagogues that were salvaged by being transformed into Judaica museums. The first of these is the synagogue in Ła´ncutand the second concerns the complex of two synagogues and one prayer house in Włodawa. The article contains an analysis of both examples from the perspective of the following factors: the circumstances under which the institution was established, the place that the history and culture of Jews took in the Museum’s activity, the way that Judaica collections and exhibitions were constructed, the substantive, educational, and research activities that were undertaken, as well as the issue of what place these monuments occupy in the town’s landscape. Keywords: synagogues; Jewish heritage; Judaica 1. Introduction From the second half of the 1980s, a growing interest in the heritage of Polish Jews was noticeable both within the country and abroad. This phenomenon developed in the 1990s, and especially intensified after 2000 (Poland’s accession to the European Union in 2004 was a watershed in this regard). -

The pace of globalisation and the growing momentum behind technological development is pressuring companies to set up SSCs capable of providing 24/7 global service coverage from one place.

Disclosure of the Value of Urban Heritage in the Western Ukraine As a Way to Its Preservation

Acta 121.Indd
SHORT NOTES SHORT NOTES* Acta Poloniae Historica 121, 2020 PL ISSN 0001–6829 GENERAL WORKS1 Krzysztof Łęcki, Według Tukidydesa. Rozważania socjologa literatury o „Wojnie peloponeskiej” [According to Thucydides. Refl ections of a Sociologist of Literature on History of the Peloponnesian War], Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Śląskiego, Katowice, 2019, 332 pp., bibliog., English and French sum. Thucydides of Athens remains an inspiration for students of history, politics, literature, and philosophy all over the Western world. The present study is an attempt at interpretation of his famous History of the Peloponnesian War from the point of view of the sociology of literature. Its main merit is clearly its erudition: one can get the impression that the book is a guide to the comments and citations regarding Thucydides made by a variety of scholars, philosophers, and poets. It seems that the author gathered evidence suggesting all possible interpretations of his protagonist’s monumental work. The impres- sive variety of opinions and comments on all aspects of Thucydides’ heritage by other authors, representing a true mélange of disciplines and approaches, makes it diffi cult however to determine if the author himself promotes, or indeed offers, any particular interpretation of his own. Neither is it easy to grasp what makes his approach representative of the sociology of literature. Instead, an illuminating, even if chaotic, introduction (which encompasses one third of the book), is followed by a chronological overview of the most important, or simply interesting, moments in Thucydides’ narrative. This selection does not seem highly original, as it is dominated by issues typically associated with ‘the father of historiography’: democracy and leadership, social divisions and tensions, the nature of the rivalry and hatred between Sparta and Athens, and the reasons for continuation of the exhausting confl ict, as well as Thucydides’ moral and psychological judgments.
