Much has been written, and very well written, on the collection in the 19th century in and through fiction: it is therefore another path that the voices gathered here would like to explore. Based on collections of all kinds (private and public, literary, historical and artistic, editorial and museological), from a necessarily and resolutely interdisciplinary perspective, the aim is to question the specificity of the act and of the discourse of the collection in the 19th century, and to think of it as a figuration and a fiction, a production and a projection of a, or even of the, 19th century. Beaucoup a été écrit, et fort bien écrit, sur la collection au XIXe siècle dans et par la fiction : c’est donc une autre voie que les voix ici réunies voudraient explorer. À partir de collections de tous ordres (privé et public, littéraire, historique et artistique, éditorial et muséal), selon une perspective nécessairement et résolument interdisciplinaire, il s’agit d’interroger la spécificité du geste – à la geste de la Révolution attaché – et du discours de la collection au XIXe siècle, et de les penser comme figuration et fiction, production et projection d’un, voire du XIXe siècle, bref : le XIXe siècle à l’épreuve de la collection.

Acta Slavica Estonica is an international series of publications on current issues of Russian and other Slavic languages, literatures and cultures. Another volume in the long tradition of Tartu Pushkin studies includes works by scholars from Estonia, Russia, USA, Ukraine, the Czech Republic and Switzerland. There are comments on individual texts as well as extensive historical and literary studies. A separate section is devoted to a study that demonstrates the possibilities of the statistical approach to the problems of attribution and dating of poetic texts. The most extensive section contains various biographical and bibliographical material, significantly expanding our understanding of Russian periodicals, Russian-European cultural ties and literary history of the early 19th century.

The chancellery was established as the supreme judicial and administrative authority for the royal portion of Schleswig and Holstein in Flensburg in 1648 and moved to Glückstadt in 1649. Its jurisdiction had been limited to Holstein since 1713 and was extended to the county of Rantzau in 1734, to the Plönian lands in 1762 and to the Gottorfian lands in 1774. At the same time, the name "Glückstädtische Regierung" was replaced by "Holsteinische Landesregierung zu Glückstadt und Holsteinisches Oberkonsistorium". The previously formally different special courts - judicial chancellery, Oberamtsgericht, Pinnebergisches-, Altonaisches-, Rantzauisches Oberappellationsgericht - were combined in 1806 as "Holsteinisches Obergericht". Since 1816 it was called "Holstein-Lauenburgisches Obergericht". When justice and administration were separated in the middle instance in 1834, the administration was transferred to the Schleswig-Holstein government at Gottorf; the higher court continued to exist as a purely judicial authority. When the judiciary and administration were separated in 1834, the records were divided. Most of the judicial files remaining in Glückstadt were later destroyed; the administrative files were preserved and form the core of the holdings kept in the Schleswig-Holstein State Archives.

In der Gruppe der Hamburger Mäzene, die 1907 mit ihren Spenden die Hamburgische Wissenschaftliche Stiftung ins Leben riefen und damit zwölf Jahre später die Gründung der Hamburger Universität ermöglichten, ist der Kaufmann Georg Hermann Stoltz (1845-1939) mit seiner Biografie in vieler Hinsicht ein typischer Vertreter. Wie manche andere der Gruppe baute er einen weitgespannten Handel zwischen Südamerika, im Besonderen zwischen Brasilien und Hamburg auf. Im Lauf seines langen Lebens wurde er damit zu einem Pionier und Brückenpfeiler der deutschbrasilianischen Beziehungen. Sein Reichtum erlaubte es ihm, sich in Wentorf bei Hamburg einen großzügigen Wohnsitz zu schaffen und darüber hinaus eine Stiftung in Lüneburg zu gründen, wo er auf dem dortigen Johanneum zur Schule gegangen war. Bei alldem wurde er zum Ahnherr einer großen, bis heute lebendigen Familie.

Die in vielen Museen der DDR präsentierte „Geschichte der Urgesellschaft" war ein fester Bestandteil des nationalen Geschichtsbilds des „Arbeiter- und Bauernstaats" und unterstützte die historische Legitimierung der SED-Diktatur. Allerdings besaß die sozialistische Urgeschichtserzählung mit dem in der NS-Zeit propagierten Bild der „Germanischen Vorzeit" ein ideologisch hoch belastetes Erbe. Die Museen standen angesichts des politisch verordneten Antifaschismus vor der Aufgabe, in ihren Ausstellungen den narrativen Turn vom „germanischen" zum marxistischen Urgeschichtsbild zu meistern. Entlang eines umfangreichen Korpus an Ausstellungsfotos analysiert die Studie die museale Darstellung der Urgeschichte in der SBZ und DDR sowie die Diskurse, die zum Wandel oder zur Beständigkeit von Geschichtsbildern führten. In the German Democratic Republic (GDR), prehistory was part of the national narrative that served to legitimize the dictatorial regime of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (SED). However, the socialist conception of prehistory came up against a heavily loaded ideological legacy in the wake of the notions of ‘German prehistory’ that had been espoused during the National Socialist period. Museums were tasked with mastering the politically prescribed narrative shift from an ethnic-nationalist conception of prehistory to a Marxist one. Using an extensive body of exhibition photos, this doctoral project analyses the depiction of prehistory in museums of the Soviet Occupation Zone and the GDR as well as discourses that led to the alteration or persistence of related concepts.
