CONTEMPORARY EUROSCEPTICISM AS A CHALLENGE TO EUROPEAN SOLIDARITY by M. O. Shibkova

Ukrainian-Russian Relationship in 1917-1918: History Lessons by I. A. Lohvynenko, Ye. S. Lohvynenko

“…It has been concluded that the history of Ukrainian statehood in 1917-1918 is instructive in many aspects, since it shows that one of the main reasons for the defeat of the Ukrainian Central Rada, which ultimately failed to defend the Ukrainian People’s Republic, was the lack of necessary consolidation of national political forces in solving urgent state affairs (creation and development of own army, timely solution of social, economic problems, efficiency of work of legislative and executive agencies, etc.). …”

Owen and Sassoon Reconsidered by Cristina Pividori

“…I claim that the First World War has served as a foundational narrative that has been reinterpreted to address contemporary concerns and sensibilities and that the interaction between contemporary and World War One poetry reveals not only the enduring impact of transgenerational trauma and cultural memory on the disruption and transformation of individual and collective identities, but also the idea that the interpretation of conflict through post-lenses transcends specific historical backgrounds. …”

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

“…Despite making the proposed task more difficult, in this contribution attention will be paid to the historical Jesus’ stance on violence (as contained in the Gospel tradition), our expressed hermeneutical intent being to address contemporary violence, in interpersonal relationships as well as on a global “political” scale (e.g. war). 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. …”
