Agata Pietrzak „Chicken scratches”, or Frederic Chopin and the November insurgents in caricatures by Józef Szymon Kurowski from the collections of the National Library
The article discusses the previously unknown set of drawings by Joseph Simon Kurowski, a painter who specialized in portraying personalities of the Great Emigration. Discovered in storage at the Department of Manuscripts of the National Library, albums belonging to Zofia Ossolińska (née Chodkievicz) contain a collection of 24 drawings including satirical images of November insurgents (including Izydor Sobański, Aleksander and Edward Jełowicki, Anton Wodziński, General Józef Bem and General Henryk Dembinski, Edward Rottermund, Walenty Krosnowski, and Leonard Rettel). Created during the years 1835-1839, these works document their lives outside their country. The collection also includes three self-portraits of the artist, who was himself a participant in the Polish-Russian War of 1830-31. The most interesting items in the collection are, however, caricatures of Frederic Chopin. Based on comparative and stylistic analysis, we have managed to establish their proper attribution. The author of the humorous portraits was the pianist Józef Kurowski, and not, as previously assumed, Countess Ossolinska née Jablonowska. The article also discusses the original version, never before published and hitherto unknown to Chopin experts, of the caricature Chopin Toasting from 1837.

John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) has been regarded as the father of dispensational premillenialism. Many historians have pointed to his emergence on the scene at the 1831 Powerscourt Conference as the critical moment when he introduced his “novel” pre-tribulational ideas to the broader Christian world. This narrative has gone largely unchallenged for nearly two centuries. However, privately held notebooks that have only recently been released contain detailed information concerning who and what was said over the four-day conference. The manuscripts from these conferences betray the long-held narrative that Darby introduced the pre-tribulational rapture. In fact, to the contrary, he adamantly argued against it at the 1831 Powerscourt Conference, calling the idea “an absurdity” and dismissing those who held to it.

The Finnish researcher Matthias Alexander Castrén (1813–1852) carried out several excavations and archaeological surveys during his expeditions through Lapland, northern Russia, and southern Siberia between 1838 and 1849. This article presents a preliminary overview of his fieldwork, methods, and scholarly background in archaeology. Castrén represented a holistic view of cultural research, but showed signs of growing independence of its different realms. Castrén had adopted a view of stratigraphy and an idea of a sequence of different successive periods. On the other hand, his documentation could not compete with the most advanced archaeologists of his time. Castrén's archaeological results soon became outdated, but he provided an important pattern for future generations during the next hundred years.

One of the main problems of iconography, the fact that the artist does articulations without a textual support to a composition is a common feature in Christian iconography. For this reason, it is necessary to make iconographic analysis by examining both apocryphal and canonical texts. However, the fact that these determinations can not always be done in a healthy way or requires a rigorous research process requires that some features can not be detected as canonical or apocryphal, are interpreted to be controversial. The individuality of artists, which started to show itself with the Renaissance, also manifests itself in the icon production of the Greeks who migrated to various Aegean islands, especially Crete, after leaving Istanbul in 1453. This process, which is examined within the scope of the article, tries to convey the developments and changes seen in Christian iconography after 1453 on Ayvalık Taksiyarhis Church dated 1844. This structure, which is the only church that reached Ayvalık with its original paintings, emphasizes this change in the iconography. However, since it is not possible to limit the intensive picture program of the church to a single article, the examples that were examined were chosen according to personal preference.

This essay attempts to integrate the local paradigm of the Ionian State into the general structures of the British Empire, while at the same time examines the institutional continuities deriving from the Venetian dominion. An overall plan of the Ionian State's administration, focusing on governmental practices from the institutional point of view, is also being undertaken. The essay was based on primary and secondary sources' elaboration, referring to the administrative organization and to the state system in the Ionian Islands under the British Rule. Reflecting that, the social structure of the local society was interconnected to administrative mechanism. From a methodological perspective, the use of administrative archives is instrumental in synthetic process, in an effort to portray social networks and to clarify the formation of both individual and collective identities. Developing, however, the empirical work in the factual context is deemed necessary. The text is arranged in two parts: the first refers to the local economic realities, as well as to the economic mechanisms shaped in the context of the British Rule. Both subject matters are examined in very general terms. Public finance, the banking sector and the monetary system are research objects, aiming at a grosso modo description of Ionian State's economic practices. In this framework, a special mention is made to the financial mission of Gladstone to the Ionian Islands. British Rule's economic policy is also being considered with regard to the changes in property rights: although the policy of the abolition of the feudal rural estate is not completed during the period of the Ionian State, it is nevertheless indicative of the market's transition to more liberal (or more monetarized) forms. Finally, the economic reforms taking place between 1834 and 1836 are analyzed, with special focus on the protection of local agricultural products. A reference to commercial and maritime activity is also included, with emphasis on government interventions to support (or not support) private initiative. The second part of the essay examines the gradual articulation of the state mechanism and the way this is reflected to the intended rationalization of legislative and executive authorities. In this context, the language used in administration (Italian, English, and then Greek) elucidates reforms and alterations of the State mechanism, and is also related to the emergence of a local identity. The statecraft of the Ionian State is also being examined, with a reference to the previous constitutional texts of the Septinsular Republic, as an encounter of both institutional continuity and discontinuity. Thus, the administrative mechanisms of the Ionian State are analyzed in their interaction with the local society, as an indicator of British colonial practices. Beyond the articulation of the executive, juridical and legislative authorities, as expressed in the Constitution of 1817 but also as reflected in the relevant archive material, the text contains an analysis of the reforms of 1848/1849 that basically correspond to a more proportional representation of the local population and to alterations concerning the executive authority expressed by the Commissioners, the Senate and local governors (prefects). Finally, as the administration is ran by individuals, a special reference to the relevant social network deriving from governmental practices is made: The State's administration staffing during the period of the British Rule constitutes a qualitative indicator for the social formation of the Ionian Islands and for social mobility, mainly in the context of the higher and middle-class bourgeoisie.

Spanish American countries exhibited during the nineteenth century many of the features Koselleck associated with the Sattelzeit, the transitioning period into our contemporaneity. However, the region's history was marked by social instability and political upheaval, and contemporaries referred to such experiences of time as precarious. In this article I explore the connection between this precarious time and the emergence of the sociopolitical concept of morality in New Granada (present-day Colombia) during the fi rst thirty -fi ve years of the republic (1818–1853). I focus on two conceptual moments as exemplifi ed by the refl ections put forth by Simón Bolívar (1783–1830), military and political leader of the independence period, and José Eusebio Caro (1817–1853), publicist, poet, and political ideologue of the Conservative Party.

In the 19th century, a unique combination of scientific, social, political and cultural factors attracted crowds of visitors from all over the world to the Dolomite Mountains. This phenomenon had its epicenter in Fiemme Valley and in the town of Predazzo, where Michele Giacomelli and his family hosted a great number of these travelers in their hotel: the Nave d’Oro.
This book features a critical edition of the first manuscript volume of the guestbook of the hotel, the Memoriale (1820–1875): a document where countless characters intertwined their lives, jobs, works, and passions. A stratification of social and cultural contexts, languages and events which make this manuscript a precious source for understanding a crucial chapter in Italian and European history.

From two 1824 letters by Aleksandr Pushkin to Aleksandr Kaznacheev. The first is in response to an assignment to investigate the extermination of locusts that Pushkin refused to undertake; the second concerns his resignation from the Russian Foreign Ministry, where he worked for seven years. The letters are included in Pushkin: Documents Toward a Biography 1799–1829, published last year in Russia by Iskusstvo. Count Woronzof, the deputy authority of the province of Bessarabia, was Pushkin’s boss. Kaznacheev was the head of Woronzof’s chancellery. Pushkin later admitted to a friend that he lied about his aneurysm in order to gain his freedom.

Alors que c’est souvent à la Seconde Guerre mondiale et à ses suites que sont associées les expériences des déplacements forcés, des internements massifs de civils et de militaires, cet ouvrage propose de placer la focale sur un long XIXe siècle, de la Révolution française aux lendemains de la Première Guerre mondiale. Ce livre a pour ambition de proposer une analyse conjointe et comparée, à la fois diachronique et internationale, de trois grands types d’expériences a priori dissemblables, celles des réfugiés, des prisonniers de guerre et des déportés lors d’un siècle qui vit à la fois ces phénomènes se massifier et — lentement encore — se différencier. Ces trois formes de circulation transnationale contrainte — alors encore comparables à bien des égards — sont caractérisées par un moment d’arrachement qui se déroule dans un contexte de violence (guerre, révolution, crise), suivi d’une migration forcée et d’une implantation provisoire ou définitive. Ces déplacés subissent alors souvent une marginalisation lors de leur séjour dans le pays d’accueil. Ce volume collectif vise essentiellement à comparer des situations qui ont fait l’objet de recherches récemment renouvelées, mais qui continuent à se côtoyer plus qu’à se croiser. C’est donc à cette histoire croisée, à la fois juridique, sociale, culturelle et politique, particulièrement novatrice de l’expérience de l’arrachement et du déplacement forcé qu’invite ce livre.

Although the 19th-century Sufi figure al-Shaikh Māʾ al-ʿAynain led a major resistance movement in the Northwestern Sahara and Morocco and was one of the most widely printed authors on the Fez lithographic press, very little information on his literary and scholarly output exists in Europhone sources. This is largely due to the marginalization of texts inconsistent with Middle East-centered narratives of reform and revival inspired by the encounter with Europe. As part of a larger effort to read Maghrebi literatures on their own terms rather than imposing European or Middle Eastern timelines and concepts, this paper reads Māʾ al-ʿAynain’s 1858 riḥla (travelogue) to Mecca for how he conceptualized his world and traveled within it, including local, regional, and transregional elements.

Cet article retrace le parcours atypique de Jean Chacornac (1823–1873) dans l’astronomie française du Second Empire. Commis de bazar à Marseille devenu en quelques années astronome titulaire de l’observatoire de Paris, Chacornac est finalement bouté violemment hors de la prestigieuse institution astronomique. Outre la reconstitution d’une «affaire» largement oubliée, opposant dans une lutte asymétrique cet astronome autodidacte d’extraction modeste au personnage le plus éminent de l’astronomie française, Le Verrier, le cas Chacornac nous permet ici d’éclairer les dessous de ce moment important du processus de professionnalisation de l’astronomie. Écarté de l’institution, Chacornac se donne les moyens de continuer à être astronome en pratiquant une astronomie autonome, «par en bas», et d’une ambition technique considérable. Mais la construction d’une nouvelle identité sociale élitaire pour l’astronome d’Etat, par Le Verrier notamment, s’accompagne alors de la fabrication de stigmates sociaux indélébiles maintenant Chacornac dans un statut d’«amateur obligé».

At the end of the 19th century, the instructions of the tsarist administration regarding the erection of crosses were basically related with the regulations of building brick wayside shrines, small chapels, and metal crosses, which were gaining spread at that time. The circular of 1894 was the first document of this type regulating the building of memorial monuments from durable materials. The tsarist administration regarded wooden crosses as traditional, perhaps in this way supporting the attitude of peasants that a wooden cross was holy. In the 2nd half of the 19th century, iron crosses, brick wayside shrines, and small chapels gained spread due to social and economic reasons. As the peasantry became consolidated and richer after the abolishment of serfdom, and iron grew cheaper, the conditions were created for building monuments from other types of material, not exclusively wood. The letter of Bishop Mečislovas Leonardas Paliulionis to the Governor of Kaunas Nikolay Klingenberg of 1895 regarding the erection of crosses shows that the Catholic Church recognized all memorial monuments, whatever material they were made from. The rules approved by the tsar on 14 (26) March 1896 basically abolished the prohibition to build brick wayside shrines and small chapels. The new regulations created the conditions for their thriving in the territory of the Kaunas province. This abolishment of the prohibition also encouraged more intense erection of metal crosses. The abolishment of the prohibition to build crosses and chapels from durable materials is important in that the tsarist administration realized and recognized the continuation of tradition of building not only wooden, but also brick and iron memorial monuments.

This thesis aims to study the urban and architectonic transformation of the Moroccan city of Tangier during the Diplomatic Period (1777-1912). In this stage the city became the Diplomatic capital of the Moroccan Empire, the settlement of foreign representatives (consuls) propelled its openness to Europe leading its socioeconomic structures towards a premature westernization. This process was reflected in the material sphere through important changes in the urban and architectonic space. This thesis has identified the main agents who took part in these changes and its principal interventions in the urban landscape. The urban study has recognized the chief features of its evolution and the origin and development of its neighbourhoods during this period. Urban heritage and geographic elements have been considered as well in order to understand its configuration. In the architectonic sphere, the study has been focused, on the one hand, in the identification of the main typologies, features and evolution of the autochthonous architecture and, on the other hand, the architecture promoted by the foreigners and Moroccans has been studied. This architecture sought to emulate the features and comfort of the European models, its analysis has showed the chief architectonic styles employed, some of the principal promoters of this new architecture, the new typologies appeared and the role played by the modern construction materials. In short, this thesis is a monographic work concerning a period of the history of Tangier almost devoid of architectonic and urban studies.

De Hervorming, issued as a weekly between 1873 and 1926, and as a monthly from 1927 to 1934, was one of the most important religious magazines in the Netherlands. It wanted to promote the interests of so-called 'Protestant modernists' or 'liberal Protestants', whose community of faith was characterised by differences between members of the Dutch Reformed Church and members of other denominations, between churchgoers and non-churchgoers, between 'monists' and 'dualists', between political liberals and socialists, and between laymen and 'religious professionals' such as theologians. This article investigates how the editors of De Hervorming dealt with the multiformity of Dutch liberal Protestantism, and how they attempted to do justice to all -often conflicting -opinions and convictions that existed among modernists, and to be opinion leaders themselves at the same time. A systematic and complete analysis of all sixty-two volumes of De Hervorming not only sheds light upon the thematic preoccupations of Dutch Protestant modernists, but also shows how the magazine's editors tried to create a strong sense of unity among liberal Protestants, without harming the varicoloured character of the modernist community.

This article was published in 2009 as the result of my student activities and research. It focuses on the Mikhail Alexandrovich Bakunin´s participation at the Slavic assembly in Prague in 1848. Bakunin influenced its developement and results. Similarly, his stay in Prague brought him a lot of experience, which influenced the future development of his intelectual thought. Bakunin participated on the assembly as delegate of polish-ruthenian department. He mainly commented on formal questions, but also concetrated on background activities and tried to turn other delegates (e.g. Ľudovít Štúr) for his revolutionary thoughts. He, however, failed. He tried to disprove the illusions about russian tzar Mikuláš I. and was in fierce oppostion to austroslavism. He came out with the idea of democratic slavic federation, but he failed again in enforcing this. After the assembly, he participated in unsuccessful June uprising and had to flee to Dresden. He then tried to organize uprising in Prague from Dresden, but was exposed, arrested and in 1851 extradited to russian authorities.

book Britain and the German Question looks at British perceptions of pre-Kaiserreich Germany from 1830 to 1863. Although of secondary importance to British foreign policy during the second third of the nineteenth century, the German Confederation and its individual member states were closely monitored by British observers. Two aspects of political life attracted particular interest: nationalism and political reform. Both played a prominent role in German politics for most of the German Confederation's existence and were constitutive elements of the German Question. The question of how German unity was to be achieved in the context of the Austro-Prussian struggle for supremacy was shaped by the 'tension between the challenge posed by an opposition demanding liberal, constitutional and national progress and the various governmental responses' (p. 1). As Müller shows, British attitudes towards this problem were neither clear-cut nor static.

La civilisation du journal ne voit pas seulement apparaître une circulation accrue des idées, une extension du lectorat, un mode d’information tissé de romanesque et de nouveaux rythmes liés à la quotidienneté. Elle instaure aussi un rapport spécifique à l’objet en papier. À l’heure où triomphe la chose imprimée, la culture médiatique est éminemment matérielle : manipulations, appropriations, circulations invitent à considérer les usages concrets du livre, du journal, de la brochure et de l’affiche, depuis les modes d’étalage à la vente jusqu’aux modalités de collection du livre et de conservation du roman-feuilleton, en passant par le démembrement du tract et le recyclage de l’affiche. Cet article examine les objets en papier produits par les éditeurs de pittoresques et de littérature panoramique dans les années 1830-1860 en France.

A CIP catalog record for this book has been applied for at the Library of Congress.

During the past decades, the assassination attempt has been treated from different disciplines. Nevertheless, the mediatization of the assassination attempt or its treatment in images and audiovisual media has been widely neglected. Starting from a triptych applicable to 19th century tyrannicides and articulated by the assassination performance, the perpetrator’s arrest and, finally, his punishment, we aim at verifying to what extent this model fits into 20th-century assassination attempts. For this reason, three key assassinations will be considered. First, the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, Archduke of Austria, in Sarajevo on 28 June 1914, perpetrated by Serbian nationalists, and which would lead to WWI. Second, the failed attempt on 20 July 1944 against Adolf Hitler in the Wolfsschanze; a plot in which many high rank officers of the Wehrmacht were involved. As third example, we will focus on John F. Kennedy’s assassination in
Dallas, on 22 November 1963, reputed to Lee H. Oswald.

Στην παρούσα εργασία το θέμα που θα αναλυθεί, αφορά μια από τις σημαντικότερες στιγμές/περιόδους της ελληνικής ιστορίας, εκείνη της Ελληνικής Επανάστασης. Το ερώτημα που θα απαντηθεί πιο συγκεκριμένα είναι για ποιους λόγους η Επανάσταση, άρχισε το 1821 και όχι νωρίτερα. Προκειμένου να δοθούν πειστικά τεκμήρια θα πρέπει να εξεταστεί ένα εύλογο χρονικό διάστημα πριν τη συγκεκριμένη χρονική στιγμή (δηλαδή του 1821) και οι παράγοντες που αναπτύχθηκαν το συγκεκριμένο χρονικό διάστημα και είχαν επικουρικό ρόλο στην έκρηξη της Ελληνικής Επανάστασης.
