An article covers the specifics of professional training of future geographers for field researches in period of the XIX – beginning of the XX century. It is detected that this period is characterized by rapid development of geographical science and education, followed by foundation of several higher educational institutions, opening of geographical departments and further improvement of field researches with the participation of students. The place of geographical discipline in education plans of the main high schools in the country is defined. The specifics of organization of practice related to nature observation is considered. It is found out that during the XIX – beginning of the XX century the scientific work of students have been implemented by performing independent exploratory researches, participation in joint scientific expeditions with teachers and in scientific sections. It is established that the increase of natural scientists’ activity since the mid-50s of the XIX century was due primarily to the inclusion of natural sciences in the program cycle. And at the end of the XIX century teaching geography to students was already systematic. The negative trends in geography teaching related to usage of lectures mainly, which are not very deep and instructive, and missing interaction between knowledge and practice are emphasized. It is detected that the development of geographical disciplines are inseparably linked to the activities of scientific and nature-study organizations of that period. An important part in nature research of different regions played Russian Geographical Society which employees in fact have founded regional statistical-geographical and local researches, set up criteria of its program support. It is defined that foundation of scientific societies has become one of the special organization form of scientific researches, and namely society of naturalists. This has caused the development and formation of geography and nature study. It is determined that teaching stuff started actively involving and encouraging students in research activities. The viewpoints of natural scientists are analyzed, namely about study status, the importance of foundation of geographical departments, organization and involvement of field researches into education plans of high schools. It is found out that active development of higher school in the preparation of subject teachers had a positive impact on the process of theoretical justification and methodological improvement of teaching of natural sciences, as well as organizing and conducting field researches.

This paper briefly reviews the first major project in dialect geography, namely Georg Wenker's first attempt at a survey in 1876. It examines common issues dealt with by modern fieldworkers in preparations for interviews with a group of carefully selected dialect speakers, such as the establishing of socio-psychological factors (age, place of birth, education) which determine linguistic behaviour. It recalls the elicitation techniques, the roles of participants in situated speeches and the preparation of a questionnaire. The theory is mostly based on guidelines provided by the fieldworkers' handbook Costruendo i dati (D'Agostino – Paternostro, 2006) and it has been modified for, and by, various field researches carried out in Corropoli and Nereto (province of Teramo, Abruzzo).

This paper focuses on an African street experienced as profoundly contradictory. It departs from Adeline Masquelier`s observation that this landscape is an object of both fascination and terror, and a space of both fear and desire. The street offers jobs, goods and economic opportunities, but it can also lead to isolation, marginalization and fatalities. The paper is based on field research undertook in Omdurman in 2013 and granted by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education.

The author presents theoretical and practical problems related to research on linguistic diversity in the Lubuski region situated in the historic German-Polish borderland which up to 1945 belonged to Germany. After World War II, almost all of the population was replaced. Only few autochtons remained, and the area was repopulated with ethnically diverse groups of forced settlers from territories incorporated into the USSR and displaced from the Ukrainian-Polish borderland, as well as by voluntary settlers from various Polish regions. It led to creation of a complex linguistic situation characterised by, i.a., Polish-German bilingualism and the presence of the transferred East Slavic and Polish dialects.

The article bases on ethnographical field research made in intercultural environment of little Slovakian spa. The author choses a place where different social groups co-exist: spa clients, spa employees and residents of the spa village. The general question is how the local quality of this environment is perceived and what are the contents of this exact idea of local quality, but the text mostly reveals a few aspects of the field research experience, the role of anthropologist, problems with finding informants and possible ways of fitting into the rythm of live in the spa resort.

The contribution pays attention to the course of the Ride of the Kings in Vlčnov in relation to its actors, who are mainly the eighteen-year old local boys, so-called legrúti, and the young king and his family. The authors lean especially on the field research that they implemented in Vlčnov during four days between 24th and 27th May 2012, i.e. on the day before the festival and in its entire course. In addition to their on-the-spot observation, it was the interviews with the Ride’s participants, their relatives and other inhabitants of the village that constituted the source of information. The Internet and social network provided other information. The Ride of the Kings in 2012 was the first one after the custom had been inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. During the research, high stress was put on understanding of internal mechanisms in the community of young boys and their families which the Ride is related the most to. It was monitored to which extent the custom is just a spectacle for the visitors and to which extent it is important for its bearers even though a three-day folklore festival has been based on this tradition.

The overview study focuses on a closer presentation of the dynamically developing interdisciplinary direction within oral history in recent years. The so-called crisis oral history focuses on documenting the actor’s reflection of survivors or eyewitnesses of extreme, crisis or otherwise traumatic events, during or shortly after their end. The author first presents a brief development of crisis oral history and a varied range of research topics (war conflicts, suppression of human rights, natural disasters, mass disasters, terrorist attacks, forced migration, pandemics, etc.) from the first half of the last century to the present day, including key milestones such as terrorist attacks from September 11, 2001 or the recent coronavirus pandemic. Attention is also paid to the theoretical, methodological and ethical aspects of crisis field research (including challenges and possible pitfalls) with an emphasis on the issue of traumatic memories within oral-historical interviews.

In the present article I outline the situation of children who belong to an indigenous community of Ba’Aka Pygmies, a group inhabiting the Sangha-Mbaéré region of rainforest in the Central African Republic. These children are inscribed in the categories of “invisible” and “unheard” children. They are also deprived of the right to be properly researched. This is due to a number of external and internal factors which shape the contemporary reality of the formerly colonised country. Despite the fact that the Central African Republic broke free from colonial oppression, since 1960s it has been experiencing internal colonisation and civilising missions by the countries of the Global North so as to be “fruitfully” written in the narrative of national development. Thus, referring to key categories, I discuss postcolonial representations: images and narratives perceived through the perspective of a female researcher who, since 2002, has conducted field research among excluded and marginalised children and young people in fragile (vulnerable) contexts in Central Africa.

In 1949 the first book of the Atlas of Polish Traditional Costumes series appeared. Józef Gajek was the one who initiated the series, published by Polish Folk Association to this day. He was associated with Polish Ethnographic Atlas, which had a great impact on the character of the series. Its main objective was to describe Polish traditional costumes according to particular regions. Janusz Kamocki and Barbara Bazielich were subsequent editors of the series. Since 2011 the authors of this article have been part of the editorial staff. At their initiative ten more books of the series were published in the years 2013–2018, field research on traditional handicraft was conducted and the Traditional Costume Section was established. The article describes the circumstances accompanying this editorial series appearance and discusses both main directions in research on traditional costumes and activities for popularising knowledge of this unique cultural phenomenon.

The paper introduces modern era cemeteries in Lower Silesia as specific parts of historical landscape. The timeframe of the topic spans the period from the reforms introduced at the Age of Enlightenment at the end of the 18th century till today. The field research focused on the study of urban, architectural and heritage qualities of cemeteries while taking their stonemason and vegetation components into consideration. This was followed by analysis of cartographic and iconographic sources mostly from the 19th and 20th centuries based on which it was possible to reconstruct the ideal look of cemeteries whose appearance changed significantly after the expulsion of Germans. There is a large set of documents that comprises information about the dramatic character and the scope of the changes. Based on the obtained knowledge we can say that cemeteries in Lower Silesia have been specific historical landscapes which are real sites of memory.

The study writes about a quantitative content analysis of published texts which appeared shortly before, during and after the Ride of the Kings in Vlčnov in May 2012. They were published in regional and national printed media as well as in Internet news programme of Czech Television and Czech Radio. The basic question of the authors was how the inscription of the Ride of the Kings in South-East Moravia on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity has influenced the way of informing about the event. Furthermore, the authors monitored the themes of commercialization, the actors of the event and their place in it and the assessment of the cultural importance of the custom. Separately, they analyzed the picture materials. The analysis pointed to certain discrepancies between the Ride’s aspects accentuated in written commentaries and the choice of photo documents, as well as in understanding of the importance of individual actors and their behaviour in the course of the Ride.

The paper deals with the role of gender in the context of witchcraft. It focuses on the situation in a rural area in eastern Slovenia, where the author and her students researched witchcraft in 2000 and 2001. The meaning of a gender in witchcraft accusations is presented with respect to various levels and types of witch (social level - neighborhood witches, village witches; supernatural level – night witches; counter witches). Among neighborhood witches (about whom people believe that they perform some kind of magic: placing eggs etc. in the hope that they will hurt neighbors; intentional praise), women are typically assumed to be guilty; men appear only in the subcategory of people with evil eye. Similar holds for all the subcategories of village witches, except for those who earned their reputation because of the assumption of their possession of a book of magic (where men predominate). Night witches (in the form of lights or vague presences which make it difficult for people to find their way) are always female (they are spoken about using the feminine gender; when they are recognized as people from the village, they are always women). In contrast, the ratio of men to women among counterwitches, to whom people turned for help against witches, rises dramatically. The most influential counterwitch whom people visited in this area was a men. The relationship between the sexes can also be seen through an analysis of (migratory) legends about witches whereby many of them reveal a concealed misogyny.

“It was hard for me to speak Russian”: Interviews with a resident of the village of Belostok in SiberiaThe fieldwork in the formerly Polish village of Belostok in the Tomsk Region (Western Siberia) undertaken in 2017 is a continuation of the previous study of the idiolect of its sole Polish-speaking resident initiated by Natal’ia Anan’eva fourteen years ago. This article presents a record and commentary of two interviews with this speaker, Ms Maria Markish (Markisz) (born in 1928). The first of them was conducted in April 2017 by Agnieszka Kaniewska from the University of Wrocław (Rev. Krzysztof Korolczuk SJ also took part), and the second one – by the author of this paper in May the same year, with the assistance of A. Kaniewska. It remains to be hoped that the two collectively conducted interviews come as a sign of wider international cooperation in future studies on Polish dialects in Russia. „Mnie po rusku było ciężko gadać”. Rozmowy z mieszkanką wsi Biełostok na SyberiiBadania terenowe w ongiś polskiej wsi Biełostok w obwodzie tomskim na Syberii Zachodniej, przeprowadzone w 2017 roku, kontynuują wcześniejsze badania idiolektu jedynej użytkowniczki miejscowej gwary polskiej, pani Marii Markisz (ur. w 1928), zapoczątkowane 14 lat temu przez Natalię Ananjewą. W powyższych tekstach przedstawione są nagrania dwóch rozmów z tą mieszkanką Biełostoku wraz z odnośnym komentarzem. Pierwsza rozmowa została nagrana przez Agnieszkę Kaniewską z Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego (w rozmowie uczestniczył także o. Krzysztof Korolczuk SJ) w kwietniu, druga zaś przez autora niniejszego tekstu w maju 2017 roku, również z udziałem A. Kaniewskiej. Chciałoby się wierzyć, że te wspólnie przeprowadzone wywiady są zapowiedzią przyszłej, szerokiej współpracy międzynarodowej w zakresie badania gwar polskich na terenie Rosji.

The presented case study focuses on a reenactment of the ČSLA in the acting perspective of the current young generation. The author first presents a real military reenactment as a specific subject of anthropological research and then addresses the basic categories (material and interactional credibility), on the basis of which the degree of historical authenticity is assessed in reenactment studies. The main focus is on the analysis and interpretation of semi-structured interviews with members of an unnamed military history club dealing with the reenactment of a specific military unit during the Cold War period (1960s–1980s).

The study is based on 10 years of hydronomastic research of the Malý Dunaj river basin. This area is characterized by an uncompact territory, multinational influences (Bavarian, Hungarian and Croatian ethnicities) and considerable anthropogenic interference in the hydrographic situation of the river basin, that are influencing the form or existence of hydronyms. The contribution focuses on the dynamics of hydronyms in the studied river basin, on the relationship between the standardized and the living form of water names, on the relationship between the first mention and the possible living (non-standardized) form, and on the causes of the disappearance of hydronyms. It also refers to the dating of the first known references of the hydronyms and points to the sources of these data.

The research dealing with historic land links can be summarized in several methods partly independent of each other. However, only a sum of all these methods creates a more accurate view of the researched topic. A rather limited range of historic written materials can be utilized when researching early historic periods; these usually reflect other historic facts, and land links are reflected indirectly or in hints only.

The contribution introduces the theme of research into a traditional Pentecost custom – the Ride of the Kings – in one of the ethnographic areas in the Czech Republic. The text is based on the contributions that became outcomes of international field research in a Czech location. This research was carried out thanks to the initiative of the ICTM Study Group on Ethnochoreology. The Group has dealt systematically with fieldwork through the ICTM Sub-Study Group of Field Research Theory and Method, a narrower-aimed study sub-group. The research focused on the traditional custom of the Ride of the Kings in the village of Vlčnov, which was chosen with special respect to the background provided by the inscription of the Ride on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. The fact is undoubtedly reflected in how the outside world perceives the Ride and how the Ride is shared by the local community. It provides a space for research on viability and the process of transformations in this traditional expression in contemporary society.
