Revolution of 1989 in Timișoara - Private Photograph Collection

The Lucian Ionică private collection is one of the few collections of snapshots taken during the tensest and most feverish days of the Romanian Revolution of December 1989 in the city of Timişoara, the place where the popular revolt against the communist dictatorship first broke out. The photographic documents in this collection preserve the memory both of the dramatic moments before the change of regime and of the days immediately after the fall of Nicolae Ceauşescu, when sudden freedom of expression produced moments no less significant for the recent history of Romania.

Rezső Szabó Personal Collection

Rezső Szabó je slovenský právnik a politik maďarskej národnosti. Jeho osobná zbierka obsahuje predovšetkým dokumenty týkajúce sa postavenia maďarskej menšiny v Československu. Veľká časť dokumentov pochádza z obdobia, kedy bol Szabó funkcionárom kultúrnej organizácie CSEMADOK (1954 - 1969) a z obdobia, kedy bol členom Federálneho zhromaždenia (1969 - 1971). V zbierke sa ďalej nachádzajú dokumenty týkajúce sa Szabóových aktivít v roku 1968, kedy patril medzi aktivistov, ktorí formulovali požiadavky na reformu menšinovej politiky. Zbierka z veľkej časti obsahuje návrhy zákonov, rôzne komentáre sústreďujúce sa na problematiku maďarskej menšiny v Československu. Veľmi cennou časťou zbierky je zvukový záznam niekoľkohodinového rozhovoru s pánom Szabóom, ktorý vznikol v roku 2004.

Rimantas Jasas collection

The collection shows the life, work and activities of the Lithuanian historian Rimantas Jasas (1929-2002). Jasas never called himself a dissident. Even after the collapse of the Soviet Union, he did not speak much about his involvement in underground (samizdat) literature, and saw himself only as a professional historian. The files in the collection show his close ties with the dissident movement, especially with the Soviet dissident and political prisoner Vytautas Skuodis (1929-2016). Jasas was involved with the samizdat journal Perspektyvos (Perspectives), the most highly thought-of publication by members of the intelligentsia.
