One of the first writers from Dubrovnik who has attempted to write a comprehensive history of Turkey was Benedictine Louis de Crieva called Tuberon (1458-1527). In the sixth book of his political memoir Commentarii de temporibus suis, he provided a description of the origin, customs and outline of the history of the Turks. The analysis of his work leads to conclusion, that it was a response to a great interest in this topic in the 16th Europe. Moreover, the author attempted to give a full lecture of the history of Turks, although he knew very little about the history of sultans in the 14th and the first half of the 15th century.

In the article, a problem of conceiving and depicting the Turkish rule is taken into account, for my reflections concentrate on the patterns of presentation regarding the Ottoman Turks’ invasion of the Balkan territory, and their oppressive rule in the Balkans. The patterns mentioned above, present in the Old Serbian literature, were to commemorate all those tragic events. In the Old Serbian texts (pertaining to hagiography, historiography, hymnic literature, and also to the brief literary forms – notations), the Turkish rule was expressed in explicitly negative categories of illegality, violence, and godlessness, presented in the context of the “end of times”, the Christian community’s martyrdom, mentioned in the eschatological perspective of the definition of history and exegesis, the perspective so characteristic for the Middle Ages.

In the article, a problem of conceiving and depicting of the Turkish authority is taken into account, for the considerations concentrate on the patterns of presentation regarding the Ottoman Turks’ invasion of the Balkan territory, together with their oppressive rule. The above mentioned patterns, present in the Old Serbian literature, were to commemorate all those tragic events. In the Old Serbian texts (pertaining to hagiography, historiography, hymnic literature, and also to the brief literary forms – notations), the Turkish authority was expressed in explicitly negative categories of illegality, violence, and godlessness, presented in the context of the “end of time”, Christian community’s martyrdom, maintained in the eschatological perspective of history’s definition and exegesis, the perspective so characteristic for the Middle Ages.

In the article, the author has analyzed some myths, controversies and inaccuracies concerning the genesis, course and results of the armed expedition by Grand Vizier Kara Mustapha Pasha against Vienna in 1683. Some of them came into existence almost immediately after the victory at Vienna John III Sobieski, others were created or retained for various reasons later, especially in the Polish literature of the subject. One of the main purposes of the article is also the analysis of the media and film image of the Battle of Vienna. The article is an attempt to answer some research questions and some hypotheses on the basis of such written sources as the Turkish chronicles and the available literature of the subject.

The years 1903-1914 should be considered as the most interesting period in the activity of the great powers states in South-East Europe and Near East for a few reasons discussed below. In the final period of the formation of the antagonistic military-political alliances in Europe, the so called “Concert of Europe” mainly showed a great interest in maintaining the status quo and preventing any conflicts which could occupy their attention. These states also focused on Turkey and especially on its European dominion. As a result, they jointly conducted reforms in Macedonia or tried to prevent the outbreak of war between the High Porte and the Balkan allies in 1912. At the same time, the powers did not stop their endeavors to realize their own political or economic aims at the cost of Turkey (e.g. the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina by Austro-Hungary in 1908, the occupation of Tripolitania and Cyrenaica by Italy in 1911). Their aim was to eliminate the influences and block the initiative of their competitors.

Artykuł poświęcony jest mało znanemu w historiografii wątkowi dyplomatycznych kontaktów pomiędzy Europą chrześcijańską a Uzun Hassanem (1423-1478), władcą Persji. Stolicą jego państwa było, leżące obecnie w północno-zachodnim Iranie miasto Tabriz. Uzun Hassan wspierał militarnie przeciwników Turcji osmańskiej i dążył do nawiązania kontaktów dyplomatycznych z państwami chrześcijańskimi. Autor krótko przedstawił dzieje tych poselstw, których celem była zazwyczaj Wenecja i Rzym. W 1472 r. jedno z nich zawitało również do stolicy Królestwa Polskiego Krakowa. Poza krótkimi wzmiankami we współczesnych kronikach i dokumentach dyplomatycznych niewiele wiemy o szczegółach tych pierwszych politycznych kontaktów z Persją. Zasadnicza część artykułu odnosi się natomiast do niezwykle dobrze udokumentowanej źródłowo podróży na dwór Uzun Hassana w Tabriz weneckiego posła Ambrogio Contariniego. W dyplomatyczną podróż wyprawił się on z Wenecji w lutym 1474 r. Ponieważ Turcy w owym czasie blokowali przeprawę z Cypru do Azji Mniejszej wenecki poseł zdecydował się na podróż lądem poprzez Niemcy, Królestwo Polskie i Ruś. Niezwykle cenne są jego opisy mało znanych regionów leżących nad Dnieprem, w tym samego Kijowa. Szczegółowo opisał swoją pełną przygód podróż kierując się do Kaffy nad Morzem Czarnym. Stamtąd omijając posiadłości tureckie i góry Kaukazu, uniknąwszy wielu niebezpieczeństw Contarini przedostał się do Persji.

The article discusses the little-known (in historiography) history ofdiplo- matic relations between Christian Europe and Uzun Hassan (1423—1478), the ruler of Persia. The capital of the country was located in Tabriz, cur- rently in north-western Iran. Uzun Hassan provided military support to Ottoman Turkey's enemies and sought to establish diplomatic relations with Christian states. The author briefly describes the history of Persia's diplomatic missions, which were usually aimed at Venice and Rome. In 1472, one of them also visited Krakow, the capital of the Kingdom of Poland. Aside from brief references in contemporary chronicles and diplomatic and diplomatic documents, we know little about details of those first political contacts with Persia. The main part of the article refers to an exceptionally well-documented, in terms of sources, journey of Venetian envoy Ambro­gio Contarini to Uzun Hassan's court in Tabriz. He embarked on the dip­lomatic mission from Venice in February 1474. As Turks at that time were blocking the crossing from Cyprus to Asia Minor, the Venetian envoy de- cided to travel by land across Germany, the Kingdom of Poland and Ruthe- nia. His descriptions of obscure regions at Dnieper, including in Kiev itself, are extremely valuable. He also gave a detailed account of his adventurous journey to Caffa on the shore of the Dead Sea. From there, bypassing the Turkish territory and the mountains of the Caucasus, avoiding many dan- gers, Contarini made it to Persia.
