A paper "Essence of color" in an integrated manner, not only in cultural synthesis, but also in scientific one, reveals problems of the color: its physical properties and aesthetics in the perspective of modern educational process. The points raised in this paper can serve as a new integrated approach to the phenomenon of color, as well as the basis for the development of learning and teaching programs on a range of academic disciplines: "History of art", "History of culture", "Chromatics", "Painting".

This conversation with Griselda Pollock, Professor of the Social and Critical Histories of Art in the School of Fine Art, History of Art and Cultural Studies at the University of Leeds, UK, focuses on her most recent book, Charlotte Salomon and the Theatre of Memory (New Haven and London : Yale University Press, 2018). The latter provides new readings of Leben ? oder Theater ? (Life ? or Theater ?), the artistic project of the German Jewish artist Charlotte Salomon (1917–1943), who painted as CS — the cipher the artist purposely used to disguise both her gender and her ethnicity — thus challenging previous interpretations that treat this remarkable intermedial work as straightforwardly autobiographical.

The article deals with the activities of the Ukrainian Free University in Germany (UFU) during the DP period (1945–1952). The process of resumption of the UFU operation is described. The initiator of this case was the last rector of the University of Prague and historian Vadym Shcherbakіvsky. Well-known scientists Dmytro Doroshenko, Petro Kurinny, Ivan Mirchuk, Panteleimon Kovaliv and others supported his initiative. It is noted that the Bavarian authorities and the American occupation were positive about the resumption of the university. The educational process in the higher education institution began in the summer semester of 1946. The structure of the Ukrainian Free University in Germany had two faculties: philosophy from the departments of philosophy and pedagogy, philology (Ukrainian, classical, and Slavic), history, geography, archeology, ethnology and art sciences, as well as law and socio-economic sciences from various departments. It is stated that the most active in the functioning of the university was the 1947–1948 academic year. As 492 students were educated and 95 teachers worked, a significant amount of educational literature was published. The university charter of 1948, which was the basic document regulating the functioning of the institution and giving it the right to broad autonomy and free publication, is also analyzed. The article also proves that in addition to educational work in the UFU, a publishing business was developed. Among the publications of the university was mainly educational literature, in particular textbooks for students (scripts), which were printed in cyclostyle. In order to inform students about the content of academic disciplines, the number of lectures, seminars, practical classes, lecture programs were published. To facilitate the study of educational material, university teachers issued lecture notes. Among such publications are lectures by M. Andrusiak “History of the Cossacks”, I. Mirchuk “Introduction to Philosophy”, V. Kubiyovych “Geography of Ukraine” and others. The UFU played an important role in preserving the national and cultural identity of the Ukrainian people and consolidating the Ukrainian scientific forces in exile.

An unconventional look at the Enlightenment, the beginnings of modern thought on nature and discovery journeys in Europe and beyond. The author brings to light little known facts from the history of art education, scientific exploration of mountains, glaciers and distant seas in the 18th century. He analyses works and attitudes of renowned artists (Goethe, Turner), as well as completely forgotten painters and graphic artists from numerous countries. He brings to light curiosities in the history of culture and makes them meaningful signs of changes in mentality and artistic creation (e.g. the first glacier explorations, onboard painters on captain Cook’s ships, early “out of town excursions” with a sketchbook).

American illustration occupies an anomalous position in art history. Its proponents celebrate its brief but glorious history, a “Golden Age”, lasting roughly from 1880 to 1930. It is a history with a definite, limited chronology, determined by issues of quality and stylistic development and focused on the achievements of a few individuals. Others, however, regard American illustration as a minor episode in the history of art; many consider it to be beneath consideration as serious art. Yet there has been little analysis of why American illustration is considered so marginal or of why to this day the question of whether illustration is a fine art has not been resolved.

В России периодически появляются публикации, посвященные определению предметного поля культурологии, ее междисциплинарным связям, нерешенным проблемам научного становления культурологии. Новые способы интерпретации истории, которые предложили французские исследователи, сначала вызвали почти паническое утверждение о том, что как наука «история исчезает», но впоследствии пришли к переходу от «истории-события» к «истории-проблеме», к появлению и успешному развитию истории ментальности, микроистории, исторической антропологии, истории повседневной жизни и др. История мировой художественной культуры, история искусств, история художественной культуры, история мировых религий как учебные дисциплины сегодня в России сохраняются только на узкоспециализированных факультетах. На протяжении нескольких десятилетий кардинально изменился сам характер общекультурной эрудиции более или менее образованного человека. Традиционная устоявшаяся совокупность знаний, которая была обязательной для гуманитария или негуманитария, существенно трансформировалась за счет сокращения собственно гуманитарной, художественной сферы. Хотя ради справедливости стоит заметить, что современные технологии значительно упростили доступ к культурным достижениям. Каждый раз увеличивается и количество, и качество интернет-ресурсов мировых музеев, библиотек, архивов. В последнее время начали проводить конференции и публиковать итоговые коллективные монографии, цель которых – практически продемонстрировать современный профессиональный уровень культурологических исследований. Одним из последних примеров является коллективная монография (скорее сборник статей) 2019 г. «Наука о культуре: культурология, культуроведение, Cultural Studies, culturology». Безусловно, в сборнике есть хорошие, профессиональные научные публикации, которые заслуживают отдельного обстоятельного рецензирования. In Russia, there are periodically published publications devoted to the definition of the subject field of cultural studies, its interdisciplinary connections, and unresolved problems of the scientific formation of cultural studies. The new ways of interpreting history proposed by the French researchers first caused an almost panicked statement that as a science "history disappears", but later came to the transition from "history-event" to "history-problem", to the emergence and successful development of the history of mentality, microhistory, historical anthropology, the history of everyday life, etc. The history of world art culture, the history of art, the history of art culture, the history of world religions as academic disciplines today in Russia are preserved only in highly specialized faculties. Over the course of several decades, the very nature of the general cultural erudition of a more or less educated person has changed dramatically. The traditional, well-established body of knowledge, which was mandatory for the humanities or non-humanitarians, was significantly transformed by reducing the actual humanitarian, artistic sphere. Although for the sake of justice, it is worth noting that modern technologies have greatly simplified access to cultural achievements. Each time, the number and quality of Internet resources of world museums, libraries, and archives increases. Recently, we have started to hold conferences and publish final collective monographs, the purpose of which is to practically demonstrate the modern professional level of cultural studies. One recent example is a collective monograph (rather a collection of articles) two thousand nineteen "The science of culture: cultural Studies, cultural Studies, cultural Studies". Of course, there are good, professional scientific publications in the collection that deserve a separate thorough review.

On September 15th 1922, a young Jesuit, Father S. Bednarski, enrolled at the Jagiellonian University, Department of Philosophy, Faculty of Humanities, with specialization in modern history, history of culture and history of art. One of his college professors was a well-known historian, Prof. Stanisław Kot. The Jesuit and Prof. S. Kot shared historical interests and ties of friendship. Prof. S. Kot became the mentor and professor adviser of the Jesuit’s doctoral dissertation, Collapse and rebirth of Jesuit schools in Poland (Kraków, 1933), which on June 15th1934 was awarded a prize by the PAU General Assembly and was considered the best historical work in 1933. During his research in archives and libraries in Poland and abroad, the Jesuit had in mind not only his own plans but also his mentor’s interests. The student was loyal to his mentor, who was associated with the anti-Piłsudski faction and politically engaged in activities of the Polish Peasant Party. For this reason, Prof. S. Kot did not enjoy the trust of the state authorities. In 1933, as a result of Jędrzejewicz reform, the Chair of Cultural History headed by him was abolished. Fr. S. Bednarski bravely stood in its defence. The friendship of the mentor and student’s ended in World War II. Prof. S. Kot survived the War and emigrated, where he remained active in politics, while his student died on July 16, 1942 in the German Nazi concentration camp in Dachau near Munich.

-investigating the role of painting in the display context of the eighteenth century Copenhagen Kunstkammer.Paintings and fine art in general have always formed a part of the royal collections in Denmark, but they have not always been perceived in the same way or venerated for the same reasons. This is particularly true of the eighteenth century Kunstkammer where paintings formed an integral part of the encyclopaedic display in the first half of the century, only to be segregated gradually during the second half in order to be placed in the first of a series of specialized galleries of paintings. Two versions of the royal gallery of paintings were installed in the first decades of the nineteenth century; the latter was based on an art historical approach. Most of the paintings in the Kunstkammer survived the transformation from illustrations to fine art, whereas others where deemed unfit candidates for the great survey history of art.

he article focuses on the coverage of the current issue of modern pelagic theory and practice - the implementation of a competent approach. The focus of recent educational reforms is to analyze modern legal documents (Law of Ukraine "On Education (2017), "New Ukrainian School, Conceptual Principles of Reforming the Secondary School" (2016), "New Ukrainian School: Fundamentals of the Education Standard" (2016) regarding the use of the competence potential of each educational sector. It was clarified that the experience of the EU countries was based on the Ukrainian approach to reforming educational programs, in particular, the following guidelines were adopted as the main benchmark: "European Parliament and Council of Europenian recommendations for the development of key competences for lifelong learning" (2006), "European Framework entrepreneurial competence" (2016), "Europe 2020" (2010). It is noted that in the last edition of the Law of Ukraine "On Education" there was represented a list of key competencies, one of which is "entrepreneurship and financial literacy". The concept of entrepreneurship in the scientific-pedagogical discourse is clearly presented. The leading role of the teacher in solving problems such an important task as competent growth of the younger generation is emphasized. The study found that modern reforms lead to the exclusion of the academic discipline "Economics" from the curricula from the teaching process at the Ukrainian schools. As a result, all educational subjects should be oriented towards the formation of entrepreneurship and financial literacy, but this is possible only due to the integration of interdisciplinary relations of educational disciplines, an integrated approach to learning, a creative approach to the organization of the educational process by teachers of all, without exception, academic disciplines. Thus, the standard creates a field for creative search for subject teachers in the formation of entrepreneurship and financial literacy in their students' lessons in the student's youth without involving the teacher of the economy. Teachers should also ensure continuity between primary and secondary education. The conclusions noted that the integration of modern educational process acquires the goal of implementing a competence-oriented approach in education. Today, the educational process must be designed in such a way that key competencies come into all educational branches and educational subjects. A modern graduate must have a key set of competencies aimed at enhancing the human capital, competitiveness and professionalism.
