ABSTRACTThe academic study of local and regional history in Sweden took on a quite new form and significance in the 18th century. Humiliating defeats in wars had brought the kingdom's period of greatness to an end and forced the crown to re-evaluate the country's position and image and reconsider the internal questions of economic efficiency and settlement. One aspect in this was more effective economic and political control over the peripheral parts of the realm, which meant that also the distant region of Kemi Lapland, bordering on Russia, became an object of systematic government interest. The practical local documentation of this area took the form of dissertations prepared by students native to the area under the supervision of well known professors, reports sent back by local ministers and newspaper articles. The people responsible for communicating this information may be said to have functioned as ‘mimic men’ in the terminology of H.K. Bhabha. This supervised gathering and publication of local information created the foundation for the nationalist ideology and interest in ordinary people and local cultures that emerged at the end of the century and flourished during the 19th century.

The 19Th Century

This article analyses the influence of Sir Walter Scott’s historical fiction (Rob Roy) on the development of the historical novel in Russia in the first half of the 19th century, based on the example of Pushkin’s The Captain’s Daughter. The author argues that both Scott and Pushkin had a similar approach to their national and local history and collected historical material in the same way (through archival research and by contacting local people who had witnessed the events of the Jacobite Rebellion, 1715, and the Pugachev Rebellion, 1773–1775). A close analysis of both texts presents examples of a similar poetics of the narration, dialectal use of language and dialogue, and the use of local colour and folk elements, such as folk songs or old sayings, which serve as mottos for particular chapters in the novels.

The 19Th Century

The issue of the Saratov Volga region settlement by the peasantry was covered in the first works on local history. The beginning of its special study was associated with the need to clarify the reasons for the tense social situation that had developed in the region by the middle of the 19th century. A. N. Minh’s monograph was the first attempt at a purposeful search and consolidation of evidence on peasant colonization. It opens a series of papers devoted to this problem and published by members of the Saratov Scientific Archive Commission.

Taking Care

An article’s objective is to analyze Józef Rosenblatt’s thought. He was a lawyer, professor of criminal law at the turn of the19th and 20th century. Inspired by anthropology, he tried to solved old criminal problems in a new way. His outlook shows how that criminal law developed until today, when we can eventually use solutions preventing crime from the end of the 19th century. Some of them have turned out to be inappriopriate (like whipping), but some of them have showed us a good direction (local communities and societies taking care of convicts) and they are an importat factor in resocialisation. Crime causes and prevention are related to Rosenblatt’s anthropology. According to him, a human being is determined by his/her drives. When one makes a decision, one has one’s reasons and motifs. One’s behviour depends upon power of these motifs. Human nature, understood in this way, can lead to positive change in people’s conduct.

Municipal Museums as Cultural Practice. On the History of a Bourgeois Phenomenon. Research on the history of bourgeois collections in Lower Austria in the long 19th century turns its attention to a regional culture of science and historiography that formed part of the cultural practices that united the increasingly heterogeneous middle classes. Until the mid-19th century, the oldest bourgeois collections were still guided by the ideals of the Enlightenment and hence they closely resembled the contemporary aristocratic and monastic collections. In the second half of the 19th century, the municipal museums focussed on exhibiting local history. Thus municipal museums created, stabilised and represented the identity of the provincial middle classes (Bürgertum) and reflected their emancipatory ambitions. Nevertheless, the elites of the society of orders, the nobility and the clergy, still exerted considerable influence, particularly via the learned societies at the time.

The paper analyzes the processes of acculturation and enculturation in the Principality of Serbia through the prism of the appearance of so-called domestic foreigners – individuals and groups that in legal terms should have been seen as the domestic population but were treated as foreigners in local communities. Although they were native to the same state (Jews, Muslims and Christians, settlers from the Ottoman Empire, resettled Serbs and members of other nations in the Habsburg Empire who had taken the citizenship of the Principality of Serbia), large parts of the local population were not accepted as parts of the community and were instead treated as foreigners. The reason could be their different patterns of life and work; religious differences; or their membership in a guild. Only those who had learned their trade or were members of the local guild were fully integrated and considered domicile, regardless of their nationality. Some newcomers were not willing to adopt the cultural patterns of the new milieu, particularly Muslims/Turks, Jews and Gypsies, as well as well-educated Serbian newcomers and natives educated in the West. The intensity of enculturаtion processes among Serbs and other Christians dropped in the second half of the 19th century, due to the integration of the society through the rise of the national concept.
