Poetic Vision

The harmonious, almost idyllic ending of C.F. Meyer’s last completed novella Angela Borgia must seem surprising in the context of his prose work as a whole. It is believed to reflect the intensified desire of the ageing and sickly poet to find a small livable ‘paradise’ in this world, based on Christian values. Man’s possible redemption and moral development are shown in the person of Giulio in strong parallel with Dante’s way to heavenly Paradise in the Divine Comedy. The fundamental difference between the two works lies, however, in the fact that the realist Meyer at the end of the 19th Century transfers Dante’s poetic vision of the hereafter not only to this world, but to a large extent to the physical sphere within man himself.

Abstract “Freier Mann im freien Staat”. The Protection of Legal Personality in Switzerland. The Swiss Civil Code (1912) guarantees a comprehensive protection of legal personality. In this respect there exists a fundamental difference to the civil code of Germany (1900). The difference can be traced back to the 19th century when in Switzerland legal personality was not merely understood as an abstract legal entity, but rather as an expression of citizenship. The protection of legal personality therefore included the protection of personal freedom. This freedom was not only understood to protect a person’s capacity to act in his legal sphere, but also to protect his political rights and for this reason democracy. Resulting from this understanding it became self-evident that the protection of legal personality had to be comprehensive. This concept pervades Eugen Huber’s writings and especially his legislative contributions to the creation of the Swiss Civil Code. Thereby he constructed a model which was particularly referred to by prominent public law scholars later in times of political crisis (the 1940s).

The sacrilege of Vanni Fucci, the beast of Pistoia, in the Divine Comedy This hermeneutic analysis presents a reflection on the complex nature of the concept of theft in the Christian world, compared to the pagan one. The author develops the idea of the desperate blasphemy of the infernal prisoner as a form of unconscious prayer. Vanni Fucci from Pistoia, the sacrilegious and blasphemous character of Dante’s Inferno, is analyzed by referring to the fundamental difference between the classical and medieval philosophical perception of metamorphosis as a symbol.

The 19Th Century

The article is devoted to the genesis of the Russian “liberalism”. It is shown that Russian liberalism of the 19th century, represented in its classical form by the works of Kavelin and Chicherin, whose essence consists “in reconciling the element of freedom with the element of power and law”. Is difficult to compare it with the classical bourgeois liberalism of the West. Kavelin-Chicherin liberalism is better defined as “nationally oriented”, “conservative”, “protective”. This means that Kavelin, Chicherin and their supporters were opponents not only of feudal vestiges, but also of capitalist “ulcers”. They advocated political reforms without “shaking the whole society” and carried out in the existing legal area. This is their fundamental difference from the liberal ideologists of modern “color revolutions”.

Ore District

The Čabová deposit of the Lahn-Dill type is located in the historical Beroun iron-ore district in the central part of the Devonian Šternberk-Horní Benešov Belt, consisting of metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks (metabasites prevail). Iron ores in the district were mined mainly in the 19th century. This article summarizes the results of mineralogical research of iron ores obtained froma heap on the Rozvodný vrch Hill at Čabová. Six types of ores were distinguished: 1/ so-called jaspilite ores (ferruginous jasper with a variable content of hematite and magnetite, usually a very poor iron ore), 2/ jaspilite ores rich in magnetite and/or hematite, 3/ quartz-hematite ores, 4/ quartz-magnetite ores (stilpnomelane is oft en present), 5/ carbonate ores (siderite is an essential component, also calcite, hematite, magnetite, quartz and stilpnomelane may be present in substantial quantities), and 6/ chlorite ores (composed mainly of chamosite, which is accompanied by varying quantities of calcite, stilpnomelane, ilmenite, white mica, quartz and albite). Up to several centimetres thick veins consisting mainly of calcite and/or quartz penetrate ores. Common part of the veins are chlorite (chamosite) and stilpnomelane, less abundant are white mica, magnetite and hematite, barite is rare. Compositional chlorite geothermometers of Kranidiotis and MacLean (1987) and Zang and Fyfe (1995) yielded temperatures of formation of the oreand vein chlorites that range from 189 to 225 °C and from 206 to 267 °C, respectively (there is no fundamental difference between the chlorites of the iron ores and the veins).

European Civilization

Is the end of the 20th century comparable with the end of the 19th century, the so-called fin de siècle? To what extent are the cultural characterizations of that decade—for fin de siècle is first and foremost a cultural concept—applicable to our days? The answer to this question is not easy to give because there are similarities as well as dissimilarities. The central preoccupation of the fin de siècle however was the feeling of decadence, the idea that European civilization was past its prime and on to the end. This notion is not a characteristic of the present day's cultural climate and therefore there exists a fundamental difference between the two periods.

Multisensory Experience

History imagined and history as monuments and space - some reflections The paper discusses the difference in experiencing past realities indirectly and directly. Either these realiries are represented verbally and visually to be read, viewed - and imagined. Or they are directly available to all senses in the physical surroundings, as remaining monuments and buildings. Partly available they are exhibited in museums as material objects. It is further argued that there is a fundamental difference between the multisensory experience of entering the genuine historical space of a church or walking the streets of an old well-preserved town or village and studying the representations offered in museums where the objects are combined with texts and supporting visuals. The author points to the significant role monuments from the past have played through history in stimulating and shaping aesthetic taste and architectural ideas, from the Renaissance and the Baroque to the historicism of the 19th century. Monuments have served both as a counterpoint to modernity and as a Well of Time through which we perceive bygone realities.

In this paper, we analyse features of the grammatical descriptions in Manchu grammar books from the Qing Dynasty. Manchu grammar books exemplify how Chinese scholars gave Chinese names to grammatical concepts in Manchu such as case, conjugation, and derivation which exist in agglutinating languages but not in isolating languages. A thorough examination reveals that Chinese scholarly understanding of Manchu grammar at the time had attained a high degree of sophistication. We conclude that the reason they did not apply modern grammatical concepts until the end of the 19th century was not a lack of ability but because the object of their grammatical descriptions was Chinese, a typical isolating language.
