eng	A Dialogue of Time and Place: National Identity in Architecture – Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Dušan Jurkovič	The paper focuses on architectural tendencies, which ran parallel in Scottish and Czech (Moravian) cultures – exploring national features of architecture by referring to its almost forgotten folk roots. With reference to Smith’s notorious Caledonian Antisyzygy or Cairns Craig’s view of culture as the site of a dialogue, this discussion considers the Scottish tradition of in-betweenness with regards to Mackintosh’s approach to Scottish architectural identity. In his buildings (but also designs and texts) Mackintosh is both international and national: his work draws from many continental influences typical for the Belle Epoque, but at the same time expresses distinctly Scottish national imagination. He is both traditional and modern: he himself recognizes the power and beauty of both Scottish baronial style and the folk cottage, yet his constructions speak of modernity and change. Mackintosh is here related to the Czech and Moravian architect of Slovak origin, Dušan Samuel Jurkovič, whose significant inspiration rests in the Slavic folklore, which he combines with modern tendencies, perhaps inspired by Mackintosh.
