The Competent Overview and Synthesis of Czech (Slovak) Polish Studies by Ivo Pospíšil

“…The last comprehensive, real Czech history of Polish literature by Karel Krejčí was published in 1953, after which only overviews followed as part of a wider range of publications, dictionaries or partial studies (Jarmil Pelikán, Krystyna Kardyni Pelikánová, Ludvík Štěpán, Roman Madecki and others). Nowadays, this debt has been gradually repaid, and the resolution of new generations of Czech polonists is perhaps a guarantee that this activity will continue; after all, this book monograph is proof of that. …”

À propos des espaces d’enseignement et des salles de conférence dans le monde romain by Michèle Villetard

“…It is not completely accurate to think that there were no specific teaching places in the Roman Empire. Literary or epigraphic sources as well as the last fifty years of archaeological works point out that medium and higher-level education could be performed in various types of buildings: small rooms where a few pupils learned or prestigious buildings where orators and sophists recited for hundreds or thousands of auditors. …”

Historical-Romanistic Study of the Institution of the Ombudsman by Carmen Jimenez Salcedo

Böhmes Morgen-Röte und Andreaes Chymische Hochzeit by Virginie Pektas

“…Böhme and Andreae are considered as two leading figures of German thought of the seventeenth century: Böhme, because the extent of his theosophical and pansophic vision of the universe changed European philosophy and theology; Andreae, because his Chymical Wedding—all together with the Fama and Confessio—inaugurated, whether he intended it or not, an esoteric movement in which a century torn by sectarian strife and the last gasps of the Holy Roman empire found its expression. Thus the temptation is great to find an affinity between the two authors: accordingly they are regularly mentioned together, in the same breath, in the same sentence, without however the mention going beyond mere juxtaposition. …”

“…The mausoleum excavated at the Ussol ZAC (Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Bouches-du-Rhône) presents distinctive features that make it all the more interesting: funerary chamber in a large structure, dating going back to the Late Roman Empire, located just beside a villa... It was originally built for a single, central burial, but seems to have been partly rebuilt to accommodate a second stone vault, next to the first one, in the semi-hypogeum chamber. …”

Vyandsliefde of geweld: oor die politiek van die historiese Jesus by E. Scheffler

“…After some remarks on the possibilities and limitations of historical Jesus research, Jesus’ own stance or teaching on violence (e.g. blessed are the peacemakers, loving the enemy and turning the other cheek), as well as his possible involvement in, or opposition to violence in the Palestinian and Roman context of his day will be scrutinised. A “hermeneutical” reflection on the possibility of the appropriation of Jesus’ (non-violent) stance in today’s world concludes the paper. …”
