The High Nobility. Landed Property, Careers, Living Spaces. This chapter outlines the social position of Lower Austria’s high nobility against the background of social change in the long 19th century. It focuses on the inner structure of the nobility, the dimensions of their landed property, economic management and wealth, professional careers at the court, in diplomacy, administration, the military and the church, and noble living spaces in the Vienna Residence and on the estates. The examination of various facets of a distinctly aristocratic lifestyle points to continuities as well as breaks in traditional patterns of behaviour and values; it also shows the chances and failures of autonomous life plans of women and men. This broad depiction of noble mentalities, ways of life and options for action reveals the ambivalent consequences of the progressive change in elites. Despite the loss of old positions of power, the exploitation of economic opportunities, the formation of networks across boundaries of social class and an unbroken paternalism opened up opportunities for the old high aristocracy to assert itself.

In Western Europe the Church as an institution was integrated into the military system and was obliged to serve the monarchy. Apart from performing vassal duties, the Latin clergy frequently participated in military actions. Although the Church laws forbade clergymen to shed blood, there were many examples of the violation of this rule. The attitude of the Orthodox Church in the Byzantine Empire concerning the possible participation of the clergy in war differed significantly from that of Latin Europe. The Byzantine priesthood did not become involved in military actions. The Greek Church possessed neither military units nor vassal commitment to the Empire. Despite a very close relationship with the Byzantine Church the attitude of the Georgian Church to the issue differs from that of Byzantium and is closer to the Western practice. The feudal organization of Georgia conditioned the social structure of the Georgian Church and its obligations before the monarchy. Despite the fact that the Georgian Church enjoyed many advantages, it had to take part in military campaigns. The upper circles of Georgian Church dignitaries were accustomed to both conducting military campaigns or taking part in the combat. In regard to military activities of clergy, Georgian law was much more lenient than Byzantine, and in the case of necessity, it even modified Greek legal norms. The conflict with the Christian canons was decided in favor of military necessity, and it was reflected in the legislation.

This article considers the incorporation of Prussians, Sudovians, and Scalovians who migrated to territories which were not theirs originally, into the social system of the State of the Teutonic Order between the 1280s and 1370s. The author examines the main aspects of this issue, i.e. property status and duties of migrants, with reference to data from 41 acts granted to them by the Order and the church, and the Chronicles written by Peter of Dusburg and Caspar Shuetz. The study of these data with the help of the prosopographical and historical and comparative methods makes it possible to determine the main directions of migration, number of migrants, size, and composition of their property and duties performed in relation to the Order and the church. The main regions for migration were Sambia and Pomesania, receiving 5 144 out of 5 166 persons. The choice of the regions was caused by the lack of local farmers that was the result of the devastation committed during the struggle of Prussians, Scalovians, and Sudovians with the expansion of the Order between 1260s and 1280s. Another reason was the remoteness of Sambia and Pomesania from the migrants’ native lands and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. On the one hand, it prevented possible union between the settlers and the Lithuanian rulers and, on the other hand, fostered communication between the migrants and the Order which guaranteed the former status in the new community. The incorporation of Prussians, Scalovians, and Sudovians was carried out by granting them fief or locator’s office and implied the definition of their rights and duties similar to those enjoyed by the local inhabitants. The migrants served in the military, paid taxes, had jurisdiction over their peasants, added unclaimed lands to their property, received permission to fish in the nearby waters, etc. These features testify to the successful incorporation of migrants into the new social system that contributed to a further development of the State of the Teutonic Order.

In a review of a monograph by a Polish researcher, an adjunct of the Department of Russian Studies at Warsaw University, M. Lukashevich, on the work of a Russian classic of the second half of the 19th century Nikolay Leskov, published by the Warsaw University Publishing House, the structure of the book is analyzed, the breadth of coverage of the material and the scientific approach, attractive for the general reader and at the same time promising, are emphasized. Lukashevich presents a broad panorama of Russian religious life in the second half of the 19th century, in the context of which, based on the objectives of the monograph, Leskov's work is considered. The author's attention is focused on the analysis of the least studied layer of Leskov's prose — his journalism. Numerous publicistic statements of the writer dedicated to topical issues of the social life of the Church are interpreted by the Polish philologist in the unity of form and content. The review describes the range of problems raised in the monograph, highlights successful and non-trivial observations of the author of the new book.

The social class which was the spiritus movens of rapid economic transformation in the lands of the Kingdom of Poland in the nineteenth century was the bourgeoisie. In the public sphere, there is still a strong conviction among contemporary Poles about the moral defects of capitalists, for whom, according to the prevailing stereotypes, only profit was important. The author of this article, to contradict this claim, gives an example of the life and actions of Jan Gottlieb Bloch (1836–1902). The aim of the article is to present the broad economic, social and scientific activity of Bloch as a member of the bourgeoisie of the Kingdom of Poland. The author also points to the need for further research on the work of Jan Bloch, especially in the field of his economic and irenological writing.

The archives of the Ukrainian elite are an important source for the reconstruction of various life-stages of society in the 19th century. Publication of the document form Galagan family collection, presents a private view on one of the signifi cant events in the social and political history of the Russian Empire. This is a celebration of the 900th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus in Kyiv on summer 1888. Feasibility publication due to the fact that this year marks 130 years since the events referred to in the letter. The celebration of the 900th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus was entirely in line with the imperial power’s desire to use the past for creating ideological and spiritual myths, that would contribute to strengthening the autocratic system of government through the unifi cation of the state and the church. In the last third of the 19 century the Russian Empire was actively involved in European practice of so called «invented tradition» (E. Gobsbaum) for a successful positioning itself as a country in the world. But the practice of imperial anniversaries had not only foreign policy but also internal tasks. It sought to neutralize national factors of life of the peoples of the multinational empire, especially Ukrainian, and strengthen the «space power» by leveling distinct. Petro Vasylchykov letter to Grygorii Galagan helps to understand the attitude to this event of the prominent politicians and public activists of the Empire at the end of the 19th century. At the same time, it contains many details for the reconstruction of everyday life of Kyiv at the time of the anniversary celebration.
