Nakon ruskog napada na Ukrajinu slovenačka je vlada smjesta obznanila da je Slovenija spremna prihvatiti više hiljada ukrajinskih izbjeglica. Kao slovenski građanin nisam se osjetio samo ponosnim, nego i osramoćenim.

What is and where is the Islamic World in 2019? If we understand the Islamic World as all Muslim-majority countries, according to the Pew Research Center (2015) we would find 50 such countries with a total population of over 1.8 billion. The highest percentage (91%) of the total population in a region considering themselves Muslim, can be found in the Middle East-North Africa (MENA). The starting point of Muslim history would be the prophet Muhammad’s revelation in the 7th century, followed by the Islamic Golden Age (8th–14th centuries), when Muslims were ahead of the rest of the world in the arts, science, philosophy, and technology. This period is still remembered and cherished with pride by both Sunni and Shia Muslims, the two biggest denominations within Islam, which – despite common misconceptions in the West – is not a monolith but splits into different religious schools and branches. The modern era has been marked by the more or less direct colonial domination of European powers which left its legacy in many states belonging now to the Islamic world. Much of today’s turmoil in the MENA region has its roots in the colonial times and the fault lines drawn by the European politicians. However, the blame cannot be wholly assigned to external powers: the list of factors contributing to the Middle East’s present complex and often difficult situation is long and includes many internal issues.

Ne znam je li to prednost ili nije, ali je činjenica da sam u svom životu promijenio pet država i pet društveno-političkih sistema, a da zapravo ovaj južnoslavenski teritorij nisam ni napuštao: Kraljevinu Jugoslaviju, Pavelićevu NDH, Nedićevu Srbiju, socijalističku Jugoslaviju i, na kraju, novu, samostalnu Hrvatsku. Dodajmo tu i dva rata. Ako baš i nije prednost, iskustvo bogami jest, i te kakvo. Time se ne može pohvaliti mnogo ljudi u svijetu. I onda se moj prijatelj iz Sjedinjenih Država čudi kako smo mi ovdje svi politizirani, kako se, bez obzira na svoju profesiju, pletemo u sve i sva, od vanjske politike do sporta i školstva. I sve nam je važnije od posla kojim se bavimo. Ima on pravo (ali i nema). Jer on, otkad zna za sebe, ima samo dvije kuće: prvu u kojoj se rodio i drugu u kojoj sad živi sa svojom suprugom. U čitavom svom životu ima jednu državnu himnu, jednu zastavu, iste nacionalne praznike, isti jezik, iste običaje, ista pravila i zakone, ista prava i ograničenja, mogućnosti i nade, čak isto poimanje dobra i zla – kao njegov otac, i njegov djed, i njegov pradjed...

The article examines how right-wing discourse communities are linguistically and visually constituted in social media in the context of flight, migration and Islam. The PEGIDA Facebook Corpus covering user comments (2014–2015), the PolRrA Corpus containing right-wing populist speeches (2016–2017) and the Instagram Corpus of the hashtag #identitäre (2019–2020) with postings and user comments are the data basis. Thus the corpus consists of different language-based and multimodal entities. The aim is to show how right-wing discourse communities in Germany are constituted by us-you relations, naming practices and visual patterns across time, platform and organization.

Art historian, artist, and critic Alexander Nikolaevich Benois (1870–1960) collected and systematized his archive both before and after emigration from Leningrad to Paris in 1926. According to his own assessments and according to contemporaries, the materials contained in the archive are valuable for studying the history of art culture at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and as sources for the history of Russian emigration in the first half of the twentieth century. Research and exhibitions devoted to the biography and work of Benois, as a rule, focus on his activities until the autumn of 1926 and narrate the artist’s activities in emigration, not appealing to archival materials of this period. During 34 years of emigration, part of the archive, partially transported from Leningrad, was replenished with new materials of a personal and professional nature. His personal archive became part of the museum’s collections during his lifetime, and after his death it was distributed among several more storage locations in Russia and the United States, still partially remaining in the family. Information about the archival heritage of Benois is extremely scattered, which might explain their insufficient coverage in studies of Russian emigration, as well as ideas about the activities and significance of Benois personality for the artistic and the emigration world of the mid-twentieth century. The article traces the history of the formation and principles of collecting the archive, identifies the reasons and the course of distribution, systematize information about its location and the composition of materials in storage places.

The article analyses the manuscript of Philip Orlik’s diary (1672–1742). The Ukrainian hetman was writing it for twelve years, between 1720 and 1732. The author’s focus is Orlik’s autobiography. It is a very important part of the diary and is related to the exile period of his life. The diarist had given that chapter a separate title – “Pro memoria. Na cześć i chwałę Bogu w Trojcy Świętej jedynemu Amen” [“Pro Memoria. For the Glory of God in Holy Trinity United Amen”]. The purpose of the article is to investigate the anthropology of family memory in the diary as a pledge of the author’s endurance. Orlik perceived the diary as an interlocutor, so there is a peculiar, emotionally sensitive link between the diary and the diarist. The diary is characterised by persuasiveness. In order to illustrate it, the author of the article provides quotations from the diary without translation. The original language of Orlik’s manuscript is the Old Polish language inlaid with Latin. The diarist had put down into the diary copies of the most important letters. He wrote the letters in French and Latin. The Polish language was used exclusively in his correspondence with King Stanislav. The author analyses the autobiographical note in the context of the diary genre, defining it as a model of baroque autobiography that resonates throughout the text of the diary.
