This report analyzes the main trends of a roundtable discussion on the memory of Volodymyr Piskorskyi «V. K. Piskorskyi and the Problems of the Study of World History at St. Volodymyr’s University». It was held at the Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv in September 2019 as a part of the work of the Xth International Congress of Hispanic researches of Ukraine, and it was initiated by the Center for Latin American and Iberian Studies «Casa Iberoamericana» (Department of Modern and Contemporary History of Foreign Countries). Scientists from Kyiv, Chernihiv, Nizhyn, as well as the participants from Spain, Germany, Hungary, Poland etc. participated in the round table. The event organizers set out two important tasks: firstly, to attract the attention of young researchers to the need of further study of the scientific heritage of a well-known scientist, and secondly, recognizing that Volodymyr Piskorskyi was in broad sense the representative of the European intellectual environment on the eve of the XXth century, to emphasize its affiliation with the Ukrainian cultural and scientific space in this period.
The relatives of a prominent scientist – his granddaughter Olena Novikova, who carefully keeps the memory of the famous scientist-historian, and her niece Galina Piskorska – made their reports to the audience. In their speeches, the participants of the round table focused not only on the historian’s prominent scientific achievements but also outlined his social activities and heard many family legends shared by the scientist’s relatives. Thanks to the prepared video presentation of the «Piskorsky Family Memorials», the participants could not only immerse themselves in the family atmosphere, but also make a virtual trip to those European cities, which were associated with his scientific explorations, and trace the stages of a scientist’s teaching career. During the round table, a small book exhibition of Volodymyr Piskorskyi’s works from the collections of the Maximovich Scientific Library of the Taras Shevchenko National University was opened.
Keywords: Volodymyr Piskorskyi, St. Volodymyr University (Kyiv), world history, Hispanic studies in Ukraine, biographical studies, roundtable discussion.
