The article celebrates the 90th birthday of Associate Professor Ladislav Bartko, a significant figure in Slovak linguistics and literary history. Born in 1934 in Trstené pri Hornáde, Bartko's early education was disrupted by geopolitical changes, leading him to learn Hungarian. He later pursued Slovak language studies at the Pedagogical Faculty in Prešov. Bartko's career included teaching, dialectological research, and contributions to Slovak cultural heritage. He played a key role in founding the Horehronské Museum and organizing literary competitions. His research focused on dialects, particularly in the Abov region, and he collaborated on studies of Slovak dialects in Ukraine. Bartko's work has been recognized with numerous awards, reflecting his impact on Slovak linguistics and culture.

The essay is a comparative analysis of the way in which salvation is presented into three novels dealing with shipwrecks and outcasts: Golding’s Lord of the Flies (1954), Tournier’s Friday, or The Other Island (1967), and Coetzee’s Foe (1986). Through the comparative analysis of three novels of the 20th century, the essay highlights how the shipwreck of the representatives of European civilization on an exotic, deserted and uninhabited island leads to a similar solution, of the impossibility of salvation in the framework of the same civilization. The difference in vision from the happy end feature of the Robinson myth established by Daniel Defoe is self-imposed and proves an acute crisis of modern man’s consciousness, but also an aesthetic awareness of the fact that, a few hundred years away from the establishment of the modern myth, European civilization can no longer feed on its own illusions.

Teaching Romanian as a foreign language is a relatively new field of study, which owes its evolution and openness to alterity as a form of globalisation and facilitation of mutual knowledge. Multiculturality and interculturality are tangible aspects of our daily activity and not just mere theoretical concepts that hardly find their applicability in everything that concerns our existential horizon. In an ever-changing society, it is necessary to articulate coherently one's personal identity and self-image, so that dialogue can be carried out in an appropriate and informed manner, and so as to promote knowledge of the other from as many points of view as possible, especially when learning a foreign language.
