The article deals with the historical Russian toponyms corresponding to the aboriginal Lithuanian Markučiai. In the past, this area has changed a number of names, the historical Russian forms of Маркутье and Маркуци have survived to this day. Based on the data of texts of various genre and stylistic attribution, the functioning of both toponyms can be traced during the 2nd half of the 19th – early 20th centuries. The article is an attempt to identify the factors that determined the duality of the historical Russian name. The study showed that the fate of competing toponyms was influenced not only by the real linguistic situation in the Vilna region, but also by the purposeful russification activity of the authorities after the suppression of the Polish uprising of 1863–1864. The forms of the same type of Belarusian oikonyms, Baltic in origin and ascending to Lithuanian personal names, confirm the non-systemic nature of the Vilna toponym Маркутье.

Abstract: Pura is one of Balinese architectural works that serves as a place of worship for Hindus. Pura as one of the local wisdom of the Balinese people is often associated with the identity of a region and cultural heritage. Pura is considered as one of the real proofs of the history of history from the past until now. The rolling of time and time, and the absence of adequate historical documentation regarding temples in Bali caused changes and developments that often did not match the standard. Many factors can be said to be the cause of changes or developments in a temple, including: (1) lack of documentation; (2) understanding of local people who are still minimal in the process of building a temple; (3) the absence of rules, awig-awig, or guidelines regarding the process of building a temple; (4) the people's desire to carry out practical and inexpensive temple renovation processes; and (5) people's insensitivity to the identity of their territory. Sites that have historical value are instead replaced with new or current models that are not necessarily based on original literature from previous ancestral orders. Seeing this phenomenon, researchers believe that there needs to be a preservation effort, namely a conservation strategy so that changes and developments can be overcome and controlled according to their portion. This research was carried out in an exploratory manner with qualitative data analysis, which explores data in depth through in-depth interviews.                                     Keywords : Pura, Site, Conservation, IdentityAbstrak: Pura merupakan salah satu karya arsitektur Bali yang berfungsi sebagai tempat ibadah bagi umat Hindu. Pura sebagai salah satu kearifan lokal masyarakat Bali seringkali dikaitkan dengan identitas suatu wilayah dan warisan budaya. Pura dianggap sebagai salah satu bukti nyata perjalanan sejarah dari masa lampau hingga sekarang. Bergulirnya waktu dan jaman, serta tidak adanya dokumentasi sejarah yang memadai mengenai pura-pura di Bali menyebabkan terjadinya perubahan dan perkembangan yang seringkali tidak sesuai pakemnya. Banyak faktor yang dapat dikatakan sebagai penyebab dalam perubahan ataupun perkembangan sebuah pura, antara lain : (1) tidak adanya dokumentasi; (2) pemahaman masyarakat setempat yang masih minim terhadap proses pembangunan sebuah pura; (3) tidak adanya aturan, awig-awig, ataupun guidelines mengenai proses pembangunan sebuah pura; (4) keinginan masyarakat untuk melakukan proses renovasi pura dengan praktis dan murah; dan (5) ketidakpekaan masyarakat akan identitas wilayahnya. Situs-situs yang memiliki nilai historis malah diganti dengan model kebaruan atau kekinian yang belum tentu berdasarkan sastra asli dari tatanan leluhur sebelumnya. Melihat fenomena tersebut, peneliti meyakini perlu adanya sebuah upaya pelestarian yaitu strategi konservasi sehingga perubahan dan perkembangan dapat diatasi dan dikendalikan sesuai dengan porsinya. Penelitian ini dilakukan secara eksploratif dengan analisis data kualitatif, dimana menggali data sedalam-dalamnya melalui wawancara mendalam (in depth interview).Kata Kunci: Pura, Situs, Konservasi, Identitas

Makalah ini mencoba menerapkan kearifan lokal sebagai yang tidak selalu terkait masa lalu maupun tatanan masyarakat adat. Kearifan lokal seharusnya bisa terdapat pada masa kini dan menjadi identitas suatu komunitas modern (perkotaan). Kearifan lokal diperlukan bukan hanya agar masyarakat tersebut bertahan terhadap gempuran budaya luar, namun juga diharapkan dapat menyelesaikan berbagai permasalahan, termasuk masalah Anak Berkebutuhan Khusus (ABK). Bonek - singkatan dari kata bondho nekat, arti sebenarnya : hanya berbekal kenekatan (berani). Namun nekat yang diartikan positif, yaitu sebagai suatu keyakinan dalam melakukan tindakan, sepanjang memperjuangkan kebenaran, pasti mewujud. Oleh karena itu bonek perlu diasosiasikan dengan karakter pantang menyerah dan terlebih bila dikaitkan dengan sejarah kepahlawanan Surabaya, bonek adalah nilai egaliter, solider, pekerja keras, namun jenaka. Sehingga bonek diharapkan dapat berkontribusi terhadap pembangunan karakter ABK beserta orang tuanya maupun berbagai pihak yang terkait. Karena - walaupun, sudah banyak upaya pemerintah terhadap ABK, namun mengingat permasalahan yang begitu kompleks, sehingga perlu partisipasi aktif warga, termasuk juga kolaborasi antara warga dengan berbagai pihak terkait. Dinamika mengangkat karakter bonek dalam solusi ABK guna kontribusinya terhadap pembangunan tata kota yang inklusif - dibahas dan termasuk juga saran-saran aksesibilitasnya.  This paper tries to apply local wisdom as not always related to the past or the order of indigenous peoples. Local wisdom should be able to exist today and become the identity of a modern (urban) community. Local wisdom is needed not only so that the community can survive the onslaught of foreign cultures, but also is expected to be able to solve various problems, including the problem of Children with Special Needs (ABK). Bonek - abbreviation of the word bondho reckless, the real meaning: only armed with determination (brave). But reckless is interpreted positively, namely as a belief in taking action, as long as fighting for the truth, must come into being. Therefore, bonek needs to be associated with unyielding character and especially when it is related to the history of the heroism of Surabaya, bonek is an egalitarian, solider, hardworking, but witty value. So bonek is expected to be able to contribute to the development of the ABK's character and its parents and various related parties. Because - although there has been a lot of government effort towards ABK, but given the problems that are so complex, it requires the active participation of citizens, including collaboration between citizens and various related parties. The dynamics of raising the bonek character of the ABK solution for its contribution to inclusive urban planning development - are discussed and include suggestions for accessibility.

This chapter considers in greater detail how the historical critical method sheds light on the term “from” and whether the position can be considered to be in any way traditional. It talks about the doctrine that the Torah is from Heaven, emphasizing that every word of the Pentateuch, the Five Books of Moses, was communicated directly by God to Moses during the forty years the Children of Israel journeyed through the wilderness. This demonstrates that there are faint glimmerings in talmudic statements that enable non-fundamentalists to claim new theological formulations. The point of quoting talmudic and similar references from the past is to show how much more flexible the rabbis were in matters of dogma than whose stark formulation is often hurled against the legitimacy of the “liberal” approach. What is involved in any new formulation of dogma is a greater awareness of the real history of Judaism.

Kędzierzyn-Koźle – The Heritage of the Past in the Culture of the Industrial City Functioning in the Ethnic and Cultural Frontier The article draws attention to the issues of symbolic functioning of the city which was formed of two different entities as a result of political and economic decisions. In the 20th century, the history of a traditional city got entwined with a modernistic industrial city which was taking shape. As a result, ideologies and politics impacted on the newly-established conurbation. The city denotes not only the material sphere, but also its urban community, which, in the case of the places under study, was basically historically complicated. The method of description is the ‘culturalistic’ orientation in the study of the city and also the (emotional) sociology of Silesia of the Rev. Emil Szramek. The author’s reflections touch upon ideas, facts as well as the real city’s organism shaped in its longterm and short-term perspective.

The theme is one that could easily be allowed to develop into a history of the apostolic age. I hope to keep it within reasonable bounds by approaching it in the main from one angle only. Like most of the great figures of the past, Paul is known to us both as a historical and as a legendary figure, and it is my intention in this paper to consider in a small way not only how the real Paul and the legendary Paul illuminate each other, but also how, between them, they cast a measure of light upon an obscure period.

This paper is a study in mapping out more about the process of formation of the Muslim community in Indonesia. History is a reconstruct of the past. It seems as if the past was to be away from the present. Is it true that this view. We borrow the Kuntowijoyo’s words: “Historians are like people take who takes the train to look back, and he can freely turn to the right and to the left, which can not be done is to look ahead”. History is a valuable clue, a picture of the past that can be used as guidelines in stride, present and future. The Indonesian Islam history has significance for this nation generation. Because it has its own characteristics compared to the history of Islam in other countries. It can give the feel of the real Islam in Indonesia. The Indonesian Islam is an Islamic hue promising future in the era of globalization. Thus, Indonesian Islam will be in focus in the eyes of the world. In this description, the writer describes the entry and the development of Islam in Indonesia with discussion; process and the introduction of Islam to Indonesia, acceptance by indigenous and institutionalization of Islam in society. Then, point the establishment of Islam in Indonesia, as well as the transformation of Indonesia society

This article is a reflection on historical time, a category that should not be identified with the past strictly speaking, nor even with the historical past. In this text we defend the thesis that a correct view of the History of our times can only be based upon a fluent concept of time, of systemic nature, and that this should only be understood as a nonmechanical way of representing conceptions of the past, present, and historical future, plus the associations that these time elements may establish one another. We devote a section to all of them and highlight the topic of the relationships between the present and the future.Key WordsHistorical time, present, past, historical future.ResumenEl presente artículo es una reflexión sobre el tiempo histórico, categoría que no debe ser identificada con el pasado propiamente y ni tan siquiera con el pasado histórico. En este texto defendemos la tesis de que una visión adecuada de la Historia de Nuestro Tiempo solo puede basarse en una concepción del tiempo fluyente, de naturaleza sistémica, y que éste sólo puede ser entendido como un modo no-mecánico de representar del pasado, el presente y el futuro históricos, así como las asociaciones que se establecen entre todos estos elementos temporales. Dedicamos un apartado a cada uno de ellos, poniendo especialmente el acento en el tema de las relaciones entre el presente y el futuro.Palabras claveTiempo histórico, presente, pasado, futuro históricos.

Cultural memory represents the collective perceptions and creations of the distant past. Such collective memories are best documented and secured in Literature. What matters is not the real facts but rather the consensus of conventions shared by both the cultural history and the literary creator. However, literary narratives do not always give a compilation of such memories under a single wrap. It is on this distinctive point that Jakkana stands out in eternalising cultural memory. BasavarajNaikar’s novella, Jakkanna is the retelling of the life and history of the AmarsilpiJakkannacharya, the famed architect of the Hoysala dynasty. The plot is replete with events that have been happening from the ancient times. Parallels of such incidents that have endured to the modern times can be drawn from the two great epics and other ancient Indian philosophy and literatures. This article aims at highlighting such aspects of our lives that seems to have been greatly influenced by the past. It also looks at such events that have endured eras.

In January 2015, Jennifer Walshe, a contemporary Irish composer, in collaboration with a handful of Irish artists, musicians, and composers, published Aisteach, a fictional history of an Irish avant-garde. The contemporary artists invented an ‘archive’ of Irish avant-gardists, who allegedly lived in the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries, writing their histories and composing works attributed to them. The creators then built a website that includes articles on the imaginary artists, recordings of their works, and images of their art, among other resources. Aisteach continues to expand as more people contribute to it; the most recent exhibition, which occurred in Sligo, Ireland in September 2018, introduced more imaginary artists into Irish history. Including many female and LGBTQ figures, Aisteach constructs a more diverse and inclusive history of Irish art and music that in turn casts a new light both on the real historical past and the present musical and political scenes. Through this invented tradition, the Aisteach creators also evoke alternative memories that fill in gaps in their nation’s compositional history, enable future generations of artists in Ireland, and work through their cultural inheritance to reshape and, in some cases, reaffirm conceptions of Irishness.

[full article and abstract in French; abstract in English and Lithuanian] Oscar Milosz, poète et écrivain français d’origine lituanienne, de 1920 à 1925 occupait le poste de Chargé d’Affaires de Lituanie en France et en tant que diplomate se rendit plusieurs fois en Lituanie. L’objet de cet article est le récit d’un voyage de Milosz en Lituanie, au cours du mois d‘août de 1922, en compagnie de Maurice Prozor, comme lui d’origine lituanienne, et de sa fille. Ce voyage est raconté par Greta Prozor, témoin oculaire. Le but de l’article est d’analyser le récit en faisant attention à quelques points : 1. l’image de Lituanie, telle qu’elle surgit au cours de la narration,2. la figure de Milosz comme son protagoniste. Summary The article analyzes the story of Oskaras Milašius’s journey to Lithuania which took place in August 1922. Accompanied by her father Maurice Prozor, the author of the story Greta Prozor is also the one who traveled alongside the poet and witnessed his journey first hand. As the analysis draws on the theoretical grounding for travel writing, the article seeks to define and interpret both the image of Lithuania and the figure of the protagonist of the story Milašius. The analysis comes to the conclusion that the author of the story reflectively foregrounds the geographical, historical, social, and cultural history of the country unknown to her before. It also comes to the realization that the “otherness” of Lithuania and its inherent “exotics” lie within the union between the past and the present. It is the union between the past full of life and the present times that determines the distinctive singularity of Lithuania in Europe, which the travelers seem to know well. During the cause of the story, the figure of Milašius is defined through the literary character of Don Quixote, the poet’s alter ego. His nostalgia-driven attempt at the reunion with the family’s past is, in fact, impossible; it cannot be accomplished in present reality. The real reunion with the past most yearned for is possible only throughout the oral and written story.
