Post-graduate surgical training at the Fiji National University (FNU), previously known as the Fiji School of Medicine) has recently been updated by incorporating elements from the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) training curriculum. The revised curriculum maintains strong contextual relevance to the needs and pathologies of the Pacific Island nations.  This paper outlines why the FNU surgical postgraduate training programme should be applauded as a successful programme in the training of surgeons for the region.

On December 22, 2017 the Ukrainian Diplomatic Service marked the 100thanniversary of its establishment and development. In dedication to such a momentous event, the Department of International Relations of Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University has published a book of IR Dept’s ardent activity since its establishment. It includes information both in Ukrainian and English on the backbone of the collective and their versatile activities, achievements and prospects for the future. The author delves into retracing the course of the history of Ukrainian Diplomacy formation and development. The author highlights the roots of its formation, reconsidering a long way of its development that coincided with the formation of basic elements of Ukrainian statehood that came into existence as a result of the war of national liberation – the Ukrainian Central Rada (the Central Council of Ukraine). Later, the Ukrainian or so-called State the Hetmanate was under study. The Directorat (Directory) of Ukraine, being a provisional collegiate revolutionary state committee of the Ukrainian People’s Republic, was given a thorough study. Of particular interest for the research are diplomatic activities of the West Ukrainian People`s Republic. Noteworthy, the author emphasizes on the Ukrainian Socialist Soviet Republic’s foreign policy, forced by the Bolshevist Russia. A further important implication is both the challenges of the Ukrainian statehood establishing and Ukraine’s functioning as a state, first and foremost, stemmed from the immaturity and conscience-unawareness of the Ukrainian society, that, ultimately, has led to the fact, that throughout the twentieth century Ukraine as a statehood, being incorporated into the Soviet Union, could hardly be recognized as a sovereign state. Our research suggests that since the beginning of the Ukrainian Diplomacy establishment and its further evolution, it used to be unprecedentedly fabricated and forged. On a wider level, the research is devoted to centennial fight of Ukraine against Russian violence and aggression since the WWI, when in 1917 the Russian Bolsheviks, headed by Lenin, started real Russian war against Ukraine. Apropos, in the about-a-year-negotiation run, Ukraine, eventually, failed to become sovereign. Remarkably, Ukraine finally gained its independence just in late twentieth century. Nowadays, Russia still regards Ukraine as a part of its own strategic orbit,waging out a carrot-and-stick battle.

The principles of scientific attribution of liturgical cyrillic manuscripts, which has been worked out by author, are examined. The thorough study of Jerusalem Ecclesiastic Typikon from the rare books and manuscripts department’s collection of Maksymovych Scientific Library of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv is conducted. The stages of manuscript attribution are analyzed, including the date identification and localization of its origins and use. The type and the title of the codex have been identificated by the analysis of book’s texts. The linguistic variant of Church Slavonic language, used for re-writing the copy, is revealed, which has helped to localize the place of creation. Detailed watermark analysis of paper, which the copy had been made of, has allowed to estimate date range of its production. The problematic ascertainment of the date of creation has been also supported by the analysis of the textual sources, studying of palaeographic peculiarities of cyrillic script book, the inner book’s decorative features. The problem of binding production date, its construction, materials and design, is formulated. The state of preservation of manuscript is analysed, which led the author to understanding the extent of book’s relevance for its readers. The history of manuscript restoration and its stages have been studied. The places of use and migration of the copy are revealed on the basis of provenance examination up till its arrival to Maksymovych Scientific Library’s rare books collection. Key words: Jerusalem Ecclesiastic Typikon, manuscript, Cyrillic manuscript, attribution, codicology, Maksymovych Scientific Library of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv.

This report analyzes the main trends of a roundtable discussion on the memory of Volodymyr Piskorskyi «V. K. Piskorskyi and the Problems of the Study of World History at St. Volodymyr’s University». It was held at the Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv in September 2019 as a part of the work of the Xth International Congress of Hispanic researches of Ukraine, and it was initiated by the Center for Latin American and Iberian Studies «Casa Iberoamericana» (Department of Modern and Contemporary History of Foreign Countries). Scientists from Kyiv, Chernihiv, Nizhyn, as well as the participants from Spain, Germany, Hungary, Poland etc. participated in the round table. The event organizers set out two important tasks: firstly, to attract the attention of young researchers to the need of further study of the scientific heritage of a well-known scientist, and secondly, recognizing that Volodymyr Piskorskyi was in broad sense the representative of the European intellectual environment on the eve of the XXth century, to emphasize its affiliation with the Ukrainian cultural and scientific space in this period. The relatives of a prominent scientist – his granddaughter Olena Novikova, who carefully keeps the memory of the famous scientist-historian, and her niece Galina Piskorska – made their reports to the audience. In their speeches, the participants of the round table focused not only on the historian’s prominent scientific achievements but also outlined his social activities and heard many family legends shared by the scientist’s relatives. Thanks to the prepared video presentation of the «Piskorsky Family Memorials», the participants could not only immerse themselves in the family atmosphere, but also make a virtual trip to those European cities, which were associated with his scientific explorations, and trace the stages of a scientist’s teaching career. During the round table, a small book exhibition of Volodymyr Piskorskyi’s works from the collections of the Maximovich Scientific Library of the Taras Shevchenko National University was opened.

Esta entrevista com a australiana Helen Ennis, curadora e professora de história da arte na Australian National University, busca jogar luz sobre a vida e obra da fotógrafa Margaret Michaelis (1902-1985). Ennis foi a autora da única biografia existente até o momento sobre Michaelis, além de ter sido a responsável pela incorporação do arquivo da fotógrafa na National Gallery of Australia, e pela exposição “Margaret Michaelis: Love, loss and photography”, realizada naquela instituição em 2005. Ennis recuperou, depois de quase quarenta anos esquecida, a rica obra fotográfica e história de vida de Michaelis, austríaca de nascimento, que estudou fotografia em Berlim nos anos de 1920, mas que, por sua origem judaica e sua militância anarquista, fugiu primeiro para a Espanha, onde fotografou a Guerra Civil Espanhola pelo lado republicano, depois para Londres, e, finalmente, para a Austrália. Lá ela viveu sob vigilância política no pós Segunda Guerra, e no anonimato profissional e artístico até sua morte, em 1985.

Letters from Władysław Taczanowski to Alexander Strauch in the Russian Academy of Sciences Collections. An Interesting Contribution to the History of Zoology in the Nineteenth Century The article presents the Polish translation and analysis of the letters from Władysław Taczanowski (1819–1890) to Aleksander Strauch (1832–1893). The correspondence is stored in the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg and comprises 29 letters written between 1870 and 1889. The main theme of these letters is specimens of reptiles and amphibians sent to Warsaw by Polish naturalists, such as Benedykt Dybowski from Siberia, Konstanty Jelski from French Guiana and Peru, Jan Kalinowski from Korea, as well as specimens brought by Taczanowski from Algeria. Strauch determined the species and used them in his publications. This correspondence is also a valuable testimony of the exchange of specimens between the Warsaw Zoological Cabinet and the Zoological Museum of the Imperial Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg. In return for herpetological specimens, the Warsaw collection received numerous fish specimens from the Russian Empire and a collection of birds from Mikołaj Przewalski’s expedition to Central Asia. The content of the letters allows a better understanding of the functioning of natural history museography but also the organization of shipments, preparation, determination, and exchange of specimens. They are a valuable document of the history of nineteenth-century scientific museography.
