Czechoslovak Ruthenia's 1925 Latinization campaign as the heritage of nineteenth-century Slavism
In 1925, two newspapers, both published in Uzhhorod, advocated using the Latin alphabet in the Czechoslovak province of Ruthenia.

One reason why the argument is deserving of attention from the theologian is that Pas…

Metacognition
necessarily one which it is inappropriate to study, nor to suggest that current work is wrong-headed, but simply to echo the view that he who ignores history will be doomed to relive it.
