摘要:The inaugural issue of the annual publication “Colloquia Humanistica” launched at the Institute of Slavic Studies of the Polish Academy of Sciences views the humanities from an interdisciplinary perspective, as intended by the members of the editorial Committee and by the Editor-in-Chief. This first installment defining the future profile of the annual publication as a whole focuses on the theme of continuity and discontinuity as a specific norm in culture, language, literature, and finally, history; because the importance of the theme reaches beyond the area of Polish culture, it was designed as a distinct volume, presented in English. The choice of Macedonia and the Balkans as an exemplification of the theme of continuity and discontinuity, as well as the European context signaled in the title, are not coincidences. Macedonia, representing a relatively young identity, is shown from a double perspective, as an integral part of the Balkan cultural spectrum and as part of Europe. Thus, the Macedonian distinctiveness allows a reflection of a more profound nature, a consideration of the viability of the European model of cultural continuity.
