iSybislaw sprzymierzeńcem studentów, doktorantów oraz pracowników naukowych

Author(s): Marcin Fastyn / Language(s): Polish Issue: 04/2014

In this paper the iSybislaw bibliographic database of World Slavic Linguistics publications is presented. The author demonstrates its vast potential as a research tool and citation source, concentrating on the possibilities of using all iSybislaw functions and options in university teaching and scientific research. The author points out that the database can be used not only by students and scientists of Slavic, Polish and Russian philology, but also, even if to a lesser extent, for philologies and linguistics of all languages.

Web-Based Software System for Processing Bilingual Digital Resources

Author(s): Ralitsa Dutsova / Language(s): English Issue: 14/2014

The article describes a software management system developed at the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics, BAS, for the creation, storing and processing of digital language resources in Bulgarian. Independent components of the system are intended for the creation and management of bilingual dictionaries, for information retrieval and data mining from a bilingual dictionary, and for the presentation of aligned corpora. A module which connects these components is also being developed. The system, implemented as a web-application, contains tools for compilation, editing and search within all components.

Presentation of the Verbs in Bulgarian-Polish Electronic Dictionary

Author(s): Ludmila Dimitrova,Violetta Koseska-Toszewa / Language(s): English Issue: 14/2014

This paper briefly discusses the presentation of the verbs in the first electronic Bulgarian-Polish dictionary that is currently being developed under a bilateral collaboration between IMI-BAS and ISS-PAS. Special attention is given to the digital entry classifiers that describe Bulgarian and Polish verbs. Problems related to the correspondence between natural language phenomena and their presentations are discussed. Some examples illustrate the different types of dictionary entries for verbs.

The Need for an Electronic Multilingual Dictionary

Author(s): Anna Kisiel,Joanna Satoła-Staśkowiak,Wojciech Paweł Sosnowski / Language(s): English Issue: 14/2014

The paper analyses the issue of providing adequate equivalents in multilingual dictionaries. If equivalents are adequate, it means that: (1) the scope of meaning of one item is identical to its equivalent (cf. drive: drive a nail vs. drive a car); and (2) the collocations of the equivalents overlap. Two significant problems arise when searching for adequate equivalents: the lack of equivalents whose meanings are identical (narrower/wider meanings, partial overlap of meanings, more than equally good equivalent), and equivalents with homographs in a given language. Because such issues are difficult to resolve in a printed dictionary, we put forward some methods of addressing the problems in an electronic dictionary. The paper offers an example entry from such a dictionary, which presents a suggestion of a layout. We also took into consideration the potential problems which may appear if the entry is presented in this manner: first, one must set a limit for the description (a defined number of lexical units); second, one must avoid circularity, but at the same time also strive for an exhaustive description. Electronic dictionaries offer greater possibilities of presenting modern vocabulary and adding new classifiers (e.g. a classifier of politeness).

Is the Inquiry Based Education Paradigm Useful not just for Teaching Sciences but also Theology?

Author(s): Mihai A. Gîrţu,Tudor Cosmin Ciocan / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2015

Starting from the traditional approaches to teaching science and religion we discuss modern pedagogical methods based on inquiry. We explore whether and how the teaching methods specific to each discipline may benefit in the teaching of the other.

Informacijsko – komunikacijske tehnologije DOI – Identifikator digitalnog objekta

Author(s): Dragana Bogdanović / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 20/2015

World of great working possibilities with all the types of digital information in all sciences and arts is being opened by computerization in the sphere of knowledge. Current information and communication systems receive, information processing and transmit information in the form of digital signals. Communication process of information into digital information system is named digitization. Information and communication systems dispose of digital information saved in electronic data bases. Systems of identifiers allow targeted information retrieval. DOI (Digital Object Identifier) is one of the most popular identifiers. It's used for identification of digital objects. DOI can be used for every type of intellectual property (physical, digital or abstract) which is named entity or object. DOI atributes document for some entity (name or series of characters) and it identifies that entity on digital network. Prerequisites for general progresss in the sphere of intellectual capital management are created by forming DOI system that means new possibilities for development of copyright law.

Опазването на Силистренската гробница

Author(s): Ivan Vanev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2016

This study traces the history of the conservation of the Roman tomb in Silistra, unearthed in 1942. The earliest conservation works were led by experts from the National Museum, Sofia. A number of either unpublished or less known records attesting to the interventions and covering the trends in the preservation of the mural paintings at the tomb over the last seven decades are presented. The grave problems facing the protection of such monuments in this country are due to the flaws in the system of protection of Bulgaria’s heritage sites for want of a sustainable strategy. In such a discouraging context, entrusting the management of the tomb to Silistra Municipality in 2011 could prove to be a step in the right direction. From that moment onwards, local authorities in their own right, enlisting professional organizations and experts to help, have been able to initiate and coordinate all forthcoming initiatives related to the protection of this exceptional monument.

Видима-индуцирана луминесценция на египетска синя: за документирането на ефекта при стенописи in situ и в музеи

Author(s): Stefan Belishki / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2016

Egyptian blue is one of the oldest synthetic pigments. It has a particular property – when excited in the visible spectrum to emit strong infra red radiation. The effect is called visible-induced luminescence (VIL). The luminescence of the pigment is so strong, that allows imaging of very small, sometimes almost invisible quantities in the paint. This non-invasive method for identification of the pigment is used in investigation and conservation of cultural properties. The publications on the subject to date are focused mainly on objects in museum collections. The article explores some practical aspects of the imaging of the VIL on wall paintings, both in-situ and in collection or storage. Two case studies are presented: the wall paintings in the late antique tomb in the town of Silistra – examination in situ, and a wall painting fragment from the so-called “Red Church” near the town of Perushtitsa – examination in conservation studio. Different equipment was used as alternative to the one in the publications to date. The results of the examination in the two case studies are compared. The use of different equipment and conditions of imaging are explained and evaluated. The results demonstrate that alternative equipment can be used successfully in VIL of Egyptian blue. The technique can facilitate the examination and documentation of the pigment in conservation of wall paintings and archaeological objects. The method is used for the first time in Bulgaria.

Serendipity in the Archives

Author(s): Vivian Reed / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2023

Archives have a rather dull reputation. Boxes of dusty papers guarded by rigid access rules are unappealing to many people. However, there are exceptions to that preconception, notably the Hoover Institution Library and Archives. Hoover Archives has been a place of serendipity for me personally since 2009 when I was a graduate student. What began as a class project became a master’s thesis and launched a career as an independent historian. An astonishing collection of virtually unknown records combined with a wonderful array of people led the way to many adventures and publications. This is the story of how books and public histories are born – one person and one discovery at a time.
