"Coffee with a Historian" Starts New Season with Discussion on Monarchy, Empire, and Colonies
On May 24 at 3:00 PM, a round table titled "Power over People and Space. Monarchy, Empire, and Colonies in the Modern Age" will be held at the Museum of Free Belarus in Warsaw (Foksal 11).
The meeting will be attended by Alexander Fiaduta, Yauhen Krasulin, Viktar Yakubau, and Ihar Bortnik. The discussion will be dedicated to how in the Modern Age the sovereignty of the monarch and the people was understood, how Europe's overseas colonial empires in the New World were built and functioned, and also how the colonial expansion of the peoples of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (GDL) looked like in Prussia, Livonia, Ukraine, and Russia.
Separately, the participants will discuss the administrative and cultural policy of the Russian Empire in Belarusian lands, as well as how and why Polonization and Russification occurred in the first half of the 19th century.
The broadcast and recording of the meeting will be available on the YouTube channel.
Three meetings are planned for the new season: it all starts with colonialism, followed by memory and law.
