- Arenas of Élite Change in 19th Century Europe is a group research project. At the core of the investigation are the places of élite-building in the 19th century, and how concrete "compromises" between old and new élites were arrived at. The aim is to get beyond certain normative historiographical paradigms, particularly those related to research on "bourgeoisie", "nobility", and central-eastern Europe.Key words: Central-eastern Europe, 19th century, élites, bourgeoisie, nobility.

The Aesthetic

Background: The talks about Central or Central-Eastern Europe are actualized by new political and ontological challenges and feelings of obstruction when one after another Soviet interventions took place in this space. M. Kundera's essay "The Tragedy of Central Europe" is quite quoted and analyzed not only in literary studies, but also in philosophical, historical, political and other studies. His text inspired others authors to create their own vision of the Central Europe. But it’s one of the first attempts of a comparative analysis of the aesthetic and philosophical ideas of Kundera, Kiš, and Andrukhovych has been made. Purpose: The purpose of this article is to clarify the peculiarities of the expression of the idea of Central Europe in the aesthetic and philosophical thought of Milan Kundera, Danylo Kiš, Yurii Andrukhovych, thus demonstrating the various manifestations of this concept in Slavic literature. Results: Central Europe (in Adrukhovych case is Eastern-Central Europe) is a floating cultural space with apocalyptic and anti-imperial character wich has post-Habsburg and urban dominants. Oppositions of “one's own” and “foreign”, “cultural” and “barbaric”, “harmonious” and “imposed” are clearly traced. Literary projections of Central Europe are accompanied by attempts to reconstruct it, recreate it from ruins, and fix the vanishing world, where universal (Habsburg heritage) predominates, in which national (in these cases Czech, Jewish, Ukrainian) and anti-colonial issues are intertwined. Key words: Central Europe, Central and Eastern Europe, prose, space, apocalyptic, anti-imperialism.

The 19Th Century

The paper identifies the cities in Central-Eastern Europe which were often called Manchesters in the past, because of their similar path of development and the concentration on cotton production in the 19th century in the period of the industrial revolution. The significance of the cotton industry is underlined in the growth of the cities. Following Eric Hobsbawm’s thesis, cotton is treated as the textile symbol of the industrial revolution. That is why the cities’ comparison includes the role of geography, institutions and technology, which were conducive for cotton production. We claim that cotton production was decisive for the real “take-off” of these cities. and at the same time it was the institutional factor that conditioned the economic development. The primary measure is population change over more than 100 years in 5 Cottonopolises: Manchester – the original one, Chemnitz, Lodz, Tampere and Ivanovo.

This study is a historiographical overview of the literature of the Latin American wars of independence. It analyses the gains and losses, and poses the question: „has the world advanced" in the 200 years of independence? The first part of the article concentrates on the events of the wars of independence and the developments in the 19th century focusing on the works of Francisco Morales Padrón, Luis Navarro Garcia, Jose' Carlos Maridtegui, and the approach of the German historian Manfred Kossok. In the secondpart the author presents the question of subdesarrollo and dependencia. He discusses the different interpretations for insufficient progress from the positivist viewpoints to the assessment of the economists of the CEPAL. The novelty of this part is that it presents the results of the comparative analyses (Wittman, Pack, Zimdnyi) published in Hungarian historiography in the 1960s-1970s that revealed the similarities between the progress in Central-Eastern Europe and Latin America.

Historical Thought

This volume, the result of a conference held in Warsaw in December 2019 as a part of a Franco-Polish research project on crises in literature, focuses on the relationships that the literature maintains with other fields of knowledge. These relationships, made up of sharing, collaboration or tension, were primarily theorized in the 19th century when the founding "disciplines" of our universities and research practices were established, but they had existed before. The texts presented in this volume allow us to verify this, from the Renaissance period to contemporary literature. They deal with historical circumstances and aesthetic changes in the course of which literature has forged links with religious or historical thought and discourse, accompanied the emergence of sociology or ethnography, and prepared new disciplines, such as demography. And it has always reinvested this new knowledge with a humanist and poetic dimension. Does the literature crisis lay in its capacity for reinvestment of what seems to escape from it and aiming at autonomy?
