This study summarizes recent findings concerning the archive of the Fr. A. Urbánek and Sons publishing house, which has for many years been considered lost, and focuses especially on the portion thereof preserved in today’s Institute of Musicology of the Charles University Faculty of Arts in Prague. This collection is compared with documents deposited in the Czech Museum of Music (of the National Museum) and the Literary Archive of the Museum of Czech Literature that may also have been part of the publisher’s original archive. The comparison shows that the Charles University collection is far from being so insignificant as has been thought, and could be a remarkable source of information not only for musicologists.

The aim of this article is to contribute to the presentation of the Hungarian Institute of Jerusalem by analysing records in the Hungarian National Archives. That is the reason why this paper is based on foreign affairs ministry materials found in the Hungarian National Archives. As far as secondary literature is concerned, research work by Attila Novák and József N. Szabó is regarded as unavoidable. However, besides the aforementioned resources, a comprehensive work has not been created on the history of the Hungarian Institute in Jerusalem so far. This article is an attempt to fill this research gap.

When carrying out any conservation work it is vital to its success that it be well informed. Of the many potential sources of information which can be utilised during conservation work on historic buildings, archival sources are one of the most underused and undervalued. Such sources can reveal invaluable information about a buildings structure and construction. The use of such sources is a noninvasive means of discovering a significant amount of invaluable knowledge about a structure prior to work being carried out, information that even modern scientific investigative techniques will often be unable to reveal. Despite this, archival sources in their various forms are often only consulted as an afterthought when conservation work is well in progress. This article firstly examines exactly what is meant by archival sources and what forms these take. The sources which can be accessed whilst carrying out archival research to inform conservation work are many and varied and a range of these are examined in this article. These include: - Drawn evidence (plans, engineering drawings, paintings etc.); - Photographs - Written records (bills of quantity, specifications, contracts, descriptions etc.); - Books and catalogues - Film and sound records For each of these source types some notes are given on the different forms which they can take and on the information which can be drawn from the sources to inform conservation work. In many cases practical examples of how such sources have been utilised in the past are provided. For example, accounts can reveal the source of materials used in a building which provides a conservation team with an accurate, non-invasive investigative technique for material matching. Plans can reveal information about a buildings structure and layout that may not be apparent otherwise or which has changed over time. Photographs give an image of the appearance of a building at a particular juncture greatly informing conservation work as to fine detail of a buildings appearance and structure which could not be discerned otherwise. The article then considers 2 case studies where archival sources were used to inform conservation work, the Kibble Palace in Glasgow and the Martyrs Monument in Stirling. The Kibble Palace is a large glass house and archival sources of various types were used extensively to inform the repair and conservation work carried out in recent years. Likewise, archival sources were used to provide information on the original form of many elements during the restoration and repair work at the Martyrs Monument in Stirling. It is hoped these studies will provide readers with further practical examples of the important role archive sources can play in building conservation.

KONSERWACJA ZAMKU W MALBORKU JAKO PRZYKŁAD KSZTAŁTOWANIA SIĘ DOKTRYNY KONSERWATORSKEJ

The Malbork Castle is an example of the subjugation of a historical monument and its conservation to ideological goals. After the first partition of Poland in 1772 Malbork found itself within the borders of the Prussian monarchy. The castle, up to then never intentionally destroyed, was pulled down and re-designed. The devastation was halted in 1803 thanks to the propaganda campaign launched by young German Romantics. Since 1817 the tide of patriotic upheaval favoured the castle's restoration, transforming Malbork into a national sanctuary of Prussia. Supervision over the work was entrusted to Karl Friedrich Schinkel. The architecture of the first stage in the restoration of Malbork was typical for Romantic historicism and linked Classical composition schemes with a neo-Gothic appearance. In the wake of the unification of Germany in 1871 the castle was to symbolise the German military 'Drang nach Osten' trend and comprise one of the monuments of the revived empire. From 1855 the castle was fortified, thus restoring its status of a fortress within the defensive system of Eastern Prussia. The second stage of the work (1882-1922) was steered by Conrad Emmanuel Steinbrecht, who adhered to the purist spirit represented by Viollet-le-Duc. The intention was to change the castle into an idealized symbolic seat of the Teutonic Knights. Only traces remain of Steinbrecht's work, destroyed in 1945, but we owe the present-day shape of Malbork to his vision. Taking into consideration the historical context of the existence and annihilation of the castle, the decisions of the Polish authorities concerning its reconstruction reflect an astoundingly pragmatic approach and far-sightedness. They became part of the Polonisation and re-Polonisation of monuments of value from the propaganda viewpoint and obtained due to the altered shape of the territory of the Polish state in 1945. In this respect, contemporary Malbork remains an ideological monument fulfilling political functions. From the technical and conservation viewpoint the remnants of mediaeval and nineteenth-century architecture have been reintegrated and restored. Today, these salvaged remnants contain the value and authenticity of Malbork as a monument of European culture. All other components are contemporary supplements, which, however, are already assuming the status of monuments. They carry a clear-cut message and deserve to be protected against the pseudo-conservation and architectural neo-historicism, inspired by political and economic conditions, which results in the devastation of monuments or their reduction to the level of tawdry and media-oriented attractions.
