Deliberations of the Major Council of the Republic of Ragusa on the Serbian Despotate (1417-1478)

Author(s): Enes Dedić / Language(s): English,Latin Issue: 21/2022

The paper contains a complete transcription of the unpublished deliberations of the Major Council of the Republic of Ragusa that are related to the Serbian Despotate, prominent people, and various events from this state. Considering the fact that the courts of the Lazarević and Branković families were often visited as part of the same diplomatic missions, deliberations concerning Đurađ Branković and his possessions before he began to govern Despotate were also recorded. The period from 1415, when the Ragusan authorities made decisions on recording the deliberations of the Major Council separately, and the end of the 15th century were taken into account. It is a fund of the Dubrovnik State Archives called Acta Consilii Maioiris. For the purposes of this paper, an analysis of 17 volumes of this fund covering the period from 1415 to 1506 was conducted. The first deliberation related to the Serbian Despotate and prominent people from this state dates from 1417, and the last from 1478. The fact that the Serbian Despotate, as a state organization, ceased to exist from 1459, was also taken into account, however, certain prominent people from the ruling family were mentioned in later times through the deliberations of this council. The paper outlines the competences of the Major Council, and provides a brief analysis of the nature of the deliberations related to the Serbian Despotate. The analysis that was carried out indicates that the largest number of deliberations refer to diplomatic missions from Ragusa sent to Serbian despots Stefan Lazarević and Đurađ Branković, giving gifts to despots and their wives, permits for renting boats when traveling across the sea, and the import of certain products through Ragusa.

Author(s): Enes Dedić / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 51/2022

The paper contains a transcription of the deliberations of the Major Council of the Republic of Ragusa that relate to the Ottomans and the Ottoman state. In addition, attention is paid to the historiography, recording system, and basic characteristics of the Major Council of the Republic of Ragusa. The time period taken into account on this occasion is limited to 1415, when separate recordings of the deliberations of the three Ragusan councils began, and the end of the 15th century. An analysis of 17 volumes of the Acta Consilii Maioris fund from the Dubrovnik State Archives, which refer to the time period from 1415 to 1506, indicates that the first deliberation related to the Ottomans dates from 1417, and the last from 1496. In the deliberations of this council, the largest amount of information related to the Ottomans concerns diplomatic missions, decisions on gifts to the Ottoman sultans, pashas, viziers, and envoys, and deliberations related to the safety of Ragusan merchants who were on the territory of the Ottoman state.

Mesajul educațional și informațional transmis de revista Familia (1865–1906)

Author(s): Alexandru Nicolaescu / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 29/2022

Familia [Family] magazine was issued between 1865–1906, initially in Budapest and since 1880 in Oradea. Longevity and the fact that it had an essential circulation in the entire space inhabited by Romanians made it one of the most important Romanian periodicals in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Romanian researchers also approached the magazine edited by Iosif Vulcan. The studies and volumes published focused mainly on literary approaches or on particular topics supported over time. The present research analyzed, in the first part, the educational component transmitted by Familia through several series of articles, such as: historical, dedicated to the feminist or cultural movement, popularization of new knowledge, technologies or sciences, the purpose of intellectuals in society, peasant life, travel descriptions, policy approaches, helpful advice, epidemiological situation and social behaviours. In the second part, we followed the informational aspects, mainly in the sections dedicated to the news, highlighting the mode of transmission and the evolution of their dissemination over time.The documentary base was represented by the articles published by the magazine and the specialized literature.

Bugetul partidului și privilegiile nomenclaturii P.C.R., 1961-1965

Author(s): Petre Opriș / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 1-2/2006

The author publishes six documents from the archives of the former Romanian Communist Party that attest to expenditure exclusively for the benefit of the party and the nomenklatura, all covered from the public budget. The privileges included: very high salaries in terms of the work done, housing built from party funds, trips abroad for personal purposes with foreign currency provided by the Party Administration Section of the CC of the WPR, vacations at closed-circuit hotels and villas the party owned in the mountains, on the sea coast and near Bucharest, home help paid by the party etc. The WPR/RCP thus appears as a parasite that swallowed about 30.75 million dollars (in 1965 alone) from the state’s resources so the top brass of the party and their henchmen should not have to relinquish the power and the communist line should be maintained in this country

Tensiuni în relațiile româno-sovietice în anul „Primăverii de la Praga”

Author(s): Ana-Maria Cătănuş / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 1-2/2006

The 1965 change of leadership in Bucharest did not lessen the tensions that had shown in the Romanian-Soviet relations in the last part of the Dej epoch. The decision of the new leader, Nicolae Ceaușescu, to continue his predecessor’s policy caused the divergences between the two parties to grow deeper. The tension reached a high in the summer of 1968, when the troops of the Warsaw Treaty invaded Czechoslovakia and Romania openly lashed against the invasion. The documents presented in this article provide an inventory of the hostile actions the USSR undertook in relation to Romania against the background of the events in Czechoslovakia: statements by the Soviet officials, articles in the Soviet press, meetings of the CPSU party cells to debate Romania’s position.

Author(s): Liviu-Marius Bejenaru,Alina llinca / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 3-4/2005

The documents presented show the reality of Communist Romania in the context of World University Winter Games in Poiana Brașov (at the time called Stalin).

Due to the severe limitations imposed by the International Students Association, a quasi-Communist organization, the atmosphere was very tense and glacial.

Apogeul destinderii: L.I. Brejnev la Washington, iunie 1973

Author(s): Mioara Anton / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 3-4/2005

Only one year after his visit to Moscow and in a delicate moment to his political career, President Nixon invited the leader from Kremlin to the White House. Althought this represented the climax of detente, the American Administration has been mislead by the Soviet policy. While USSR’s targets were the recognition of its power and the maintaining of the European statu-quo, the American agenda was to get the Soviets out from the Midile East and finding appropriate solutions at the German problem in exchange of SALT and economical cooperation.

România în 1964 Un raport al ambasadorului Franței la București

Author(s): Ovidiu Bozgan,Dan Cătănuş / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 1-2/2005

The report for 1964 of the French ambassador to Bucharest speaks of how Romania emerged from anonymity on the international stage, mostly owing to the spectacular developments in this country’s foreign policy. According to Jean Louis Pons, the basic element in this policy was Romania’s effort to reject the Soviet hegemony, with the ensuing tendency to draw closer to the West and the consolidation of the Gheorghiu-Dej regime at home, all this making it both possible and necessary to have a slight liberalization. The no. 1 conclusion of the French ambassador’s report is that 1964 was to be the year of Romania’s definitive breakaway from the situation of a satellite of the Soviet Union, which it had been since the end of World War II.

Diversitate în unitate Percepții americane asupra blocului comunist, 1962

Author(s): Mioara Anton / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 3-4/2004

Late in 1962, the US Administration revised its plans for the East-European countries. Going from reserve to stagnation, they envisaged “much more normal and active relations with the governments of East-European countries.” With all the impediments arising from the nature of the political regimes, coordination of the cooperation plans was not impossible. The two documents reveal that the Americans were interested in the states in the Soviet sphere of influence. Even if at first there was no hint a change of political regime would be encouraged, such a turn was not out of the question. However, the events of 1961-1962 convinced the US that such an approach of the relations with the socialist states could only be counterproductive.

Dorin Tudoran sau avatarurile unui intelectual român în luptă cu regimul comunist

Author(s): Ana-Maria Cătănuş / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 3-4/2004

In the early 1980s, Dorin Tudoran joined the few voices that publicly contested the regime. Tudoran spoke out about problems related to culture and literature, but also about proven plagiarism cases involving well-known figures of the literary world. His daring attitude was not without consequences. Harassed by the communist authorities, Tudoran applied in the spring of 1984 for permission to emigrate. On July 25, 1985, after years of persecution, Tudoran managed to leave the country.

Cultura și arta la începutul regimului Ceaușescu

Author(s): Ana-Maria Cătănuş / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 1-2/2004

On May 19, 1965 Nicolae Ceausescu, recently appointed First secretary of the party, was meeting with representatives of the literary and arts world, to tell them how he anticipated the development of art and culture. Without making any direct reference to the Dej epoch, Ceausescu hinted that he would maintain the liberal trend that had prevailed in the field of culture until he had come to power. Moreover, he proved willing to broaden the limits imposed in this sector. The concessions he announced could create the impression the regime was condoning a freedom of speech no one had hoped for before, yet the Communist leader made a point of what the party meant and how it expected the new line to be applied. The party’s offer - limited freedom of artistic creation - was sanctioned into an official directive on the occasion of the 4th Congress of the RWP (9th of the RCP).
