Jędrzej Moraczewski. Wspomnienia. Ludzie, czasy i zdarzenia. Część pierwsza. Młodość i praca inżynierska. Tom 1. Lata nauki 1870–1896

Author(s): Ilona Florczak / Language(s): Polish

Jędrzej Moraczewski’s thoroughly subjective memories reveal a small dose of privacy. However, through the mesh of the author’s life story, they show the picturesque Galician reality, the mechanisms determining the functioning of institutions, offices and political parties towards the end of the 19th century, as well as the intellectual elite milieu in the 19th-century Lwów. This environment had a great impact on shaping Moraczewski’s national, civil and political consciousness. It also affected the choice of his ideological path and his active participation in public life.

On 13-15 September 2022, the History of Archaeology in the Czech Lands and Slovakia conference was held at the Department of History, Faculty of Arts, Palacký University in Olomouc (with the organizational contribution of the Moravian Museum in Brno). Nominally it was dedicated to two anniversaries connected with Moravian archaeology - 70 years since the death of Innocence Ladislav Červinka (1 February 1869 - 3 October 1952), the most important Moravian prehistorian of the first half of the 20th century, and 115 years since the first congress of the Moravian Archaeological Club in Litovel, an association that since the end of 1906 has brought together most Moravian prehistorians of Czech nationality under Červinka's presidency. It was attended by 40 interested persons from the Czech lands, Slovakia and Poland. The proceedings contain two dozen texts: 16 of the 25 papers that were presented at the conference, 3 additional papers that were announced in preliminary versions of the conference programme but ultimately did not appear due to various circumstances, and an edition of one of Červinka's manuscripts. The texts are structured into five thematic parts. The first one (Innocent Ladislav Červinka) with seven papers is devoted to the personality of Innocent Ladislav Červinka. The second part (Personalities) presents eight articles on European and regional personalities associated with archaeology. Two contributions of the third part (Societies) deal with the organizational structures of Czech and Moravian archaeology. The other two articles in Part Four (Finds and Sites) deal with the history of one remarkable find from Slovakia and one important Slovakian site.

Obraz souseda: diskurzivní analýza českých a polských literárněvzdělávacích textů

Author(s): Michaela Nakládalová / Language(s): Czech

The theme of the image of the neighbour is understood in the present work as the image of Poland and Polish culture in Czech textbooks serving literary education from the beginning of schooling to the final school leaving exam and the image of the Czech Republic in Polish textbooks. Over 300 textbooks were analysed for the purposes of the thesis. The image of the neighbour can be divided into primary and secondary. The primery one concentrate on the headings Czech, Czech Republic and the Czech authors. The image of the Czech Republic and Czech culture in Polish textbooks is represented in particular by the work Švejk, then Václav Havel and his work The Power of the Powerless, Milan Kundera and Bohumil Hrabal - especially Ostře sledované vlaky. The only other artist of Czech nationality who is mentioned on a regular basis is Alfons Mucha, but often without information that he is Czech. The image of Poland and Polish culture in Czech literature textbooks is presented by Tuwim's and Brzechwa's verses at the first level, but usually without further information about the author. In later grades, pupils are introduced to Henryk Siekiewicz and Adam Mickiewicz, and the most prominent representation of Polish authors is in textbooks for secondary schools, although these are often very brief mentions. The secondary image is focused on the context and common historical experiences. There is not much room in textbooks for looking back at how a neighbouring country experienced a given phase, the biggest being on the subject of communism.

Týnský kostel a architektura poděbradské doby

Author(s): Jana Pařízková Čevonová / Language(s): Czech

"The Church of Our Lady before Týn, since the 14th century the main parish church of the Old Town, after the Hussite Wars the main church of the Utraquist Church in Bohemia and Moravia and an unmissable dominant feature of the historical centre of Prague, is the second most important medieval sacral building in Prague after St. In syntheses of the history of Czech Gothic architecture, it is often ranked at the forefront of the development of the architecture of the Luxemburg period, and at the same time the completion of the church after the Hussite Revolution is mostly presented as the most important building of the time of George of Poděbrady. On closer inspection, however, the ideas of many authors regarding the identification of the pre-Hussite and post-Hussite parts of the church differ fundamentally, which raises important questions for the understanding of the architecture of the Poděbrady period. The present book on the Late Gothic completion of the Old Town Church of Our Lady of before Týn attempts to contribute at least partially to a more detailed treatment of the architecture of the Poděbrady period, which summarises many years of research on the building."

Author(s): / Language(s): Polish

This monograph, prepared by numerous authors, shows the figure of Karol Irzykowski in the interwar period, presenting the attitude of the critic towards the Young Poland movement and his interactions with the avant-garde.

The last bloc of texts is devoted to a unique clercism of the writer and the solitude resulting from it, shown against the background of other models of clercism in the context of literary geography and Irzykowski's accusations of anti-Semitism.

Češi se ve světě neztratí, natož v Americe. Medailonky ze života českých vystěhovalců

Author(s): Miloslav Rechcígl / Language(s): Czech

In the book, the author presents a panorama of the fates of selected personalities whose roots are in the Czech lands and who achieved extraordinary success in the United States and whose activities significantly influenced the development and growth of the new homeland. It is a saga of ordinary and powerful people whose influence and importance often extended beyond the borders of the United States. However, a large number of the persons mentioned will certainly be completely unknown to the Czech readership, as their Czech origins were generally unknown. The book covers the entire period from the discovery of the New World to the beginning of the 21st century. The individual personalities were chosen solely according to the taste and interest of the author, and the selection was based on their importance, contribution and the interest of their lives, the only condition being that they were either born on Czech territory or were descendants of emigrants from Czech lands.
