Recent efforts to re-evaluate modernism, the avant-garde and postmodernism in art, as well as modernization and modernity and the thinking of the last 150 years, have also included romanticism. The relativization of modernism and modernity thus has taken a broader perspective than originally expected. Besides the traditional shifting of the responsibility for contemporary shortcomings on the 18th century, critics have also turned to its posterity - romanticism. This has opened the question to which extent are the ideals of the criticism of modernism, its idiosyncrasy, animosity, tendencies and imperatives a critical and methodological heritage of the past, which apparently still continues to radiate its rejection of the modernization, return to the nature, etc. The doing away with the constructs and myths of the romanticism paradoxically shows that the ideological construction of the last centuries was constructed by literary historiography itself by repeating inexact, shifted, re-interpreted and auto-fictional claims, often complex images that it uncritically adopts from the works of its predecessors.

The author of the article introduces Hayden White’s, Frank Ankersmit’s, and Jouni-Matti Kuukkanen’s constructive understanding of history. He contrasts their understandings of history with the traditional understanding, which supposes direct correspondence of historical work to the past. In his presentations of constructive thought, he points out their emphasis on legitimate possibilities of different methods of construction and ways of presentation, which result in different historical representations of historical events. Differences among historical representations of the past can also be related to the historian’s choice of different constructive methods and also the involvement of his/her preferred moral and political values. These constructive understandings of history, with the deeper analysis of process writing, incite the historian to deeper ethical self-awareness of his/her work.

A discourse of the term identity is very unambiguous in social sciences. However, there is a prevailing opinion that identity is a social construct which is characterised by plurality of identification relationships. Identity as a non-variable and stable quality of a man is in question and, on the contrary, it is understood as an ongoing process of constructing, defining and re-defining in the interaction of a man with the outer world. From the perspective of constructivism, the identity can be understood as the art of self-creation performed in concrete conditions of a social-cultural environment. In the era of late modernism the art of self-creation is being more significantly performed in the atmosphere of growing insecurity. Insecurity causes problems when building self-confidence, which complicates the process of creating a human identity. We, as consumers, experience certain insecurity when having to choose from a wide range of consumer goods and services. Uncertainty calls for a demand for the trust. Trust causes reduction of insecurity and supports self-confidence as a presumption of creating identity. In the world of consumerism and consumption significance, there is also a growing significance of trademarks and of sellers as possible sources of trust. These sources become an important part of consumers´ self-creation and they become a symbol of social recognition. The inability to participate in the consumers´ world and in the commercial entertainment may cause frustration and humiliation leading to unwanted socially pathological behaviour

The paper focuses on poetic texts which develop the subject of plurality of inhabited worlds. It continues on the research into the forms of this subject in the European literary tradition and in the new Latin-language tractate literature of Slovak provenance. The beginnings of thematizing plurality of worlds in Slovak poetry in vernacular language date back to the times when the influence of the Enlightenment ideas was at its peak or was still noticeable. The subject is present in a number of passages from Tragoedia by Augustín Doležal, which is undeniably only a fraction of the whole work. However, the idea of plurality of worlds has its significance in the system of teodicea, which was followed by this piece of writing. The subject was introduced into Slovak translation poetry by English poet Alexander Pope´s poem An Essay on Man, translated by Bohuslav Tablic. The paper is based on the assumption that Slovak literature was evolving in the area of poetic reflection in a way similar to those in other European literatures. It forms parallels with the 18th century Russian literary production based on closer interconnections between the works of A. Doležal and Mikhail V. Lomonosov. The conclusions show that the subject is represented by the works of significant Slovak poets from the late of the 18th and early the 19th centuries. The fact that it is part of a more complex ideological system proves strong links with the European intellectual and literary context.

The article deals with the cosmopolitanism of Immanuel Kant and Jürgen Habermas. In his perpetual peace project, Kant endeavoured to overcome the modern state system which has been prone to war. However, this project is confusing due to Kant’s contradictory attitude to a world state. Although the pluralist system of sovereign states can be securely surmounted only by universal “Völkerstaat” or “Weltrepublik”, these political entities raise concerns about unification and despotism, originally connected with a universal monarchy. The similar problem becomes apparent also in Habermas’ version of cosmopolitanism. Even though Habermas ultimately argues that the world state is to be avoided, his conception is driven to it by the universalism of human rights, which are directed against political particularism, as well as by the politics of peace, requiring the establishment of an effective power at the supranational level of a global political system. Furthermore, in this multilevel political system its lowest level, i.e. the level of nation states is suppressed. Kant’s and Habermas’ contradictory positions reflect a more fundamental tension between plurality and unity which affects modern cosmopolitanism, frequently criticized as anti-pluralistic. Hence, the aim of the article is to clarify contradictions in Kant’s and Habermas’ conceptions in order to shed some critical light on modern cosmopolitanism as such.

Against the background of the appointment of 'the second' vicars general in a Czech diocese and a Moravian archdiocese, the text briefly deals with the history of the institution of vicar general as well as the difference of its current model in the Code of Canon Law from that in the past. It analyses the connection between the possibility of appointing various episcopal vicars and the possibility of appointing more vicars general. It points out the necessity of the correctly considered interpretation of a legal text and reaches the conclusion that the appointment of more vicars general in the framework of the current code is possible only in those cases where it is impossible or improper for pastoral reasons to appoint just one episcopal vicar. On the other hand, it is necessary in accordance with the law to appoint an episcopal vicar for the specific administrative area, defined in terms of territory, persons, or subject matter.
