In Latvian literature since the second half of the 19th century, Lithuanians, Lithuania, its history, its particular sites are quite often depicted in some specific view, sometimes comprehensively, conceptually, sometimes episodically, passingly. The article attempts to demonstrate what image of Lithuanians and Lithuania that could have made an impact on Latvian literature, formed before it emerged and while emerging: in folklore, writings of Baltic Germans in the 18th–19th centuries and works by activists of the National Awakening.

The article reveals the peculiarities of the eastern policy of France in the second half of the 17th — second half of the 18th century. During the reign of Kings Louis XIV and Louis XV, the eastern policy of France underwent significant changes. At the beginning of this period, the main goal of the “eastern barrier” was to confront the Austrian Habsburgs. To this end, the government of Louis XVI used, first of all, the alliance with the Principality of Transylvania. Problems in the east distracted the Habsburgs from the wars in Europe.

AbstractOriginally a charitable monastic institution devoted to the care of Christian pilgrims in the Holy Land, the Hospitallers of St. John became a military order during the twelfth century. The arrival of the Order of St. John in Malta in 1530 brought this island to the attention of European leaders and their subjects; indeed, the number of visitors who wrote about their sojourns on the island in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries is remarkable. At this time private military tours to Malta came to be integrated into what was called the Cavalier's Tour. The famous caravans of the fleet

Abstract:
Under the influence of the French Revolution, many European countries underwent key changes in various areas. One of those was the reform of the civil service system and the emergence of a professional class of officials. The paper examines the development of public service in Prussia, France and the British Empire in the 19th century. The foundations laid down during this period influenced European politics and even shape the contemporary image of Germany, France and the UK around the world. The public services of these countries were created in different conditions and reflected national val

Olomouc, nowadays a city with 100,000 inhabitants, has always been considered as one of the most prominent Czech cities. It is a social and economical centre, which history started just about the 11th century. The present appearance of the city has its roots in the 18th century, when the city was almost razed to the ground after the Thirty years’ war and a great fire in 1709. After that, the city was rebuilt to a baroque military fortress against Prussia army. At the beginning of the 20th century the majority of the fortress was demolished.

Abstract:
In 18th-century Spain, military institutions played an essential role in the teaching of higher mathematics. Toward the end of 1750, an Academy of Mathematics was established at the Royal Guards Barracks in Madrid and was ruled by Pedro Padilla (1724-1807?) until it was dissolved in 1760. In 1753-1756, Padilla authored and published his Curso Militar de Mathematicas [Military Course of Mathematics] for the specific use by this Academy. According to the preface of his first volume, Padilla’s primary aim was to show that understanding the basic principles of each branch of mathematics could be u
