Issue 15 (I-2026) of the Journal of Ethnic Microhistory contains five articles. 1. In his essay, Gregory Popov asks whether the Rus people truly played a decisive role in averting a Mongol invasion of Europe by acting as a physical barrier between the advancing forces and the European continent. He concludes that the Catholic states of Europe were capable of mounting effective resistance against the Mongol conquerors. He employs a comparative method in his work, combining medieval chronicles with archaeological research. He posits the hypothesis that following the Battle of the Sit River on 4 March 1238, the Russian principalities did not consolidate their position in order to resist the Mongol conquerors. He concludes that the Rus possessed weak military capabilities at the outset of the Mongol invasion of Europe. 2. The autobiographical story of Reinhold Schulz contains valuable microhistorical material, reflecting the realities of Russia-German history and everyday life from the mid-20th to the early 21st century. The author attempts to be objective about the first half of his life, which he spent in the Soviet Union. 3. The article, written by Kazakh scientists Begman Iskak and Ileskan Smanov, is dedicated to the creative work of the renowned Kazakh writer, Berdibek Soqpaqbaev. He is best known for his 1957 novella My Name Is Kozha. Soqpaqbaev is widely regarded as a classic of Kazakh children's literature. His works contain microhistorical material from the period when Kazakhstan was a union republic of the USSR. The article is written in Kazakh and is preceded by an English abstract. 4. Robert Korn focuses on the creative work of the Russia-German writer Bernhard Vogau, who wrote under the pseudonym Boris Andreevich Pilnyak. In the first part of his essay, Robert Korn dispels the myth of the Russification of Bernhard Wogau and the Volga-Germans, with whom the renowned writer identified. In the second part of his essay, Robert Korn draws on the critical vie
