Powrót MELiSa. Ideologizacja bibliotek publicznych w świetle dokumentów archiwalnych z lat 1956–1958

Author(s): Andrzej Dróżdż / Language(s): Polish Issue: 10/2012

Niedługo po XX Zjeździe KPZR nastąpiły zmiany destalinizacyjne we wszystkich państwach „bloku socjalistycznego”. Biblioteki publiczne okaleczone akcjami oczyszczania księgozbiorów z dzieł podlegających natychmiastowemu usunięciu na próżno upominały się o ich zwrot w Centralnym Zarządzie Bibliotek Ministerstwa Kultury i Sztuki (pisma nr 1–4). Na początku 1958 roku bibliotekarzom rozesłano Wskazówki w sprawie postępowania z drukami zbędnymi (pismo nr 5), zabraniające pozbywania się podstawowych dzieł Marksa, Engelsa, Lenina i Stalina. Bibliotekarzy ponownie starano się wykorzystać w propagandowej grze prowadzonej przez ideologów Polski Ludowej ze społeczeństwem.

Instytucje związane z książką na łamach „Dziennika Polskiego” w latach 1945–1969. Część I. Biblioteki i archiwa

Author(s): Urszula Lisowska-Kożuch / Language(s): Polish Issue: 7/2009

Since its beginning, Kraków’s daily “Dziennik Polski”, published since February 4, 1945, has paid considerable attention to books and book-related institutions such as bookshops and libraries. In the years 1945–1969 there appeared 256 comments with regard to publishing houses, 247 were texts discussing bookshops and antiquarian bookshops whereas 890 publications were dealing with libraries and archives. Altogether, in the years 1945–1969 book-related institutions were written about 1393 times. The first texts devoted to libraries were concerned with damages in library collections and attempts at rescuing, regaining and finding collections. In the following texts the needs of Polish librarianship were discussed, especially the need to create relevant legislative acts and to develop library networks. “Dziennik Polski” presented individual libraries such as the National Library, the Jagiellonian Library, the Ossolineum Library and many others. In later years the newspaper’s journalists informed the readers about sessions, conventions and conferences devoted to the problems of Polish librarianship as well as about librarianship courses that were being organized. After 1956 the comments on library matters were dominated by the ones concerning Kraków and its vicinity.

Działalność bibliotek szkół wyższych na podstawie przepisów prawnych (w wyborze)

Author(s): Halina Grzywacz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 6/2008

The focus of this work is reviewing the most important regulations concerning the libraries of higher schools and determining their organization and functioning. After the analysis of quoted legislative works in the area of the law and library functioning, numerous conclusions suggest themselves concerning the place of libraries in the traditional and digital world. It turns out that the work of libraries and librarians is greatly influenced first of all by regulations within the limits of higher schools law-making. In the world of modern technologies, there is overwhelming influence of the copyright laws and the regulations connected with the country’s informatization and the policy of intellectual property protection, directed by the European Union. The whole of the discussed issue leads to a sad conclusion that, despite considerable involvement of the librarians’ environment (which is proved by the number of publications and reflections exchanged in journals), Polish legislation for higher schools libraries is not prepared to fulfil a modern role.

Tajemnice księgozbioru Iwana Groźnego

Author(s): Andrzej Dróżdż / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2001

Tsar Ivan IV (1533-1584), the autocrat of the Grand Duchy of Muscovy, left behind the testimony of a bloody tyrant, squandering the lives of thousands of his subjects, however, until recently some Russian historians viewed him as a lonely reformer who was forced to take radical decisions. Many of them maintained the legend of his supposedly exquisite education. In their assumptions they relied on another legend of the Rurikovitch's book collection full of literary gems of antiquity. Although nobody questions the existence of Tsar Ivan's private library, there are many misconceptions about it, especially that the existing documents mention merely 154 titles of books in the collection. They are connected with the person of the Tsar in many ways; he founded some of them, he barely skimmed some, and he confiscated others. The collection was analysed by N.N. Zarubin (1893-1942) many years ago, and various historians supplied it with commentaries during the after-war period. The source of the misunderstandings about the Tsar's library is the anonymous Index of the collection, supposedly discovered in 1819 in the town of Parnu archives by Ch. Dabelov (1768-1830), professor at the Dorpat (Tartu) University, which included a few references to some Greek and Latin manuscripts, and gave their total number of eight hundred volumes. N.N. Zarubin did not acknowledge Dabelov's Index being afraid of mystification. Perhaps he found those references to unknown works by Virgil, Cicero and other lost texts of Roman authors too shocking to be true. And yet, since the beginning of 19th century, historians have continued to undertake research on Tsar Ivan "The Terrible's" library. Some of them reached the conclusion that it must have been burnt during the Kreml fires in 1547, 1571 or 1611. Others speculated that it was plundered during the Dimitri movement or that the synod library and several Orthodox Church libraries absorbed it. There are still some who claim that Tsar Ivan's collection has remained untouched in a secret room of Kreml. The advocates of the latter hypothesis believe in the authenticity of the Index, and hope to find the Rurikovitch's library within the walls of Kreml one day. The author of the article presented the standpoint of many historians, quoted valuable documents, and in the last part of his work organised the knowledge on the subject of Ivan IV's library in consistence with the principles of bibliologi-cal analysis and using N.N. Zarubin's catalogue, reconstructed for the purpose, of the books whose existence was documented.

VISOČKE VAKUFNAME I DOKUMENTI O UVAKUFLJENJIMA (OD XVIII DO XX STOLJEĆA)

Author(s): Emrah Seljaci,Mustafa Berhamović / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 44/2023

This work focuses on waqfnamas (endowment deeds) and related Ottoman documents with regard to religious endowments in the urban part of Visoko. The introductory section provides a brief overview of the well-known religious endowments established in Visoko in the period from the 15th to the 18th century. By examining the content of the original texts of the endowment deeds, their translations, and analyses, as well as existing scholarly literature, the most significant religious endowments and their founders, benefactors, in the Visoko area are presented. Following this overview, the paper delves into the analysis of Visoko’s endowment deeds and other documents written in Ottoman Turkish, that pertain to religious endowments established in the period from the 17th to the 20th century. The analyzed endowment deeds are mainly recorded in the sijills (records) of the endowment deeds and the sijills of the Sarajevo Sharia Court. Some transcripts are also found in the Chronicle by Muhamed Enveri Kadić. During a close examination of each religious endowment, the primary approach involved a document analysis, and the research results were then presented with regard to previously unanalyzed archival materials stored in the Majlis of the Islamic Community in Visoko. In addition to endowment deeds, and on the trail of Visoko’s religious endowments, two testamentary documents (wasiyyetnamas), a hujjet, a note from the sijill, and a donation contract written in the Bosnian language were also examined. The paper aims to establish a connecting line between the moment when theses religious endowments were established and their current state.

Elementy technologii informacyjnej w “edukacji czytelniczej i medialnej” zamieszczone w Podstawie programowej kształcenia ogólnego

Author(s): Hanna Batorowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2001

Reforma systemu edukacji w Polsce w przededniu jej wprowadzenia w życie nadal wzbudza szereg dyskusji, prowokuje do formułowania kontrowersyjnych opinii, wprowadza w zakłopotanie zarówno uczniów, rodziców, nauczycieli jak i organy nadzorujące działalność oświatową. Istotne znaczenie odgrywa w chwili obecnej rozumienie zakresu podstaw programowych, określanie standardów edukacyjnych, tworzenie zarządzeń wykonawczych dotyczących konstruowania programów szkolnych, opracowywania nowych podręczników, stworzenie nowego modelu kształcenia nauczycieli zgodnie z wymogami reformy oświaty itd.

The Nunnery’s riches and property increased thanks to many generous donations from both private benefactors and clergymen. The second abbess, Katarzyna’s sister, Anna Szaporowska, continued to develop the Nunnery. In 1623 it was joined by 35 new girls. The third abbess, Krystyna Szaporowska, who received her blessing in 1638, could not continue the work started by her sisters for long, as because of her age and sickness, she died two years later.

Author(s): Tatyana Viktorovna Panyukova / Language(s): Russian Issue: 2/2024

The article describes and comments on the letters of Dostoevsky’s daughter Lyubov Fyodorovna to her mother in 1881–1917. Together with the replies of Anna Grigor’evna Dostoevskaya, the correspondence includes about 700 letters in which mother and daughter often discuss the issues related to the preservation of Dostoevsky’s legacy: publishing the Complete Works, staging performances based on his works, replenishing the writer’s Memorial Museum, erecting a new monument on his grave for the 30th anniversary of his death, issues of preserving documents and books. The persons and events mentioned in the letters make the epistolary of Dostoevsky’s widow and daughter a valuable historical and literary source. In combination with archival and memoir sources, Lyubov Fyodorovna’s epistolary can be used to study and comment on the biography and correspondence of Dostoevsky’s entourage. The article includes a letter from a reader from the editorial archive of “The Unknown Dostoevsky” journal, which is a response to an earlier published article and is dedicated to Ekaterina Vladislavovna Yachevskaya, the granddaughter of Faddeus Venediktovich Bulgarin, and one of L. F. Dostoevskaya’s correspondents. The Appendix contains excerpts from Lyubov Fyodorovna’s letters dedicated to representatives of related families (Bulgarins, Olkhins, Engelhardts, Tyrtovs, Rokossovskys).

KYRILLOMETHODIKON – an Innovative Research Environment for Shared Access to Scientific Content

Author(s): Slavia Barlieva,Elka Zlateva / Language(s): English Issue: XIV/2024

The Cyrillo-Methodian heritage is a common phenomenon of European value, promoting religious tolerance, cultural equality, and understanding of European cultural history and identity. The virtual cluster KYRILLOMETHODIKON developed at the Cyrillo-Methodian Research Centre (CMRC) at BAS is part of the Centre of Excellence "Heritage BG" (BG05M2OP001-1.001-0001 Project), aiming to provide structured knowledge on this phenomenon and its manifestations. The digital repository offers resources for research on the first stage of Slavic Christian culture with an accent on its Old Bulgarian part, reflecting the multidisciplinary research paradigm of the Centre: studies in medieval literature, linguistics, history, theology, art history, and anthropology. To ensure the educational socialisation of the research in these disciplines, a Scientific and Educational Interdisciplinary Centre for Cyrillo-Methodian studies was created within the framework of KYRILLOMETHODIKON, sharing educational tools for a wide range of audiences, including children, school students, undergraduates, and doctoral candidates.
