Български старопечатни издания в библиотеката на Софийския университет „Св. Климент Охридски“

Author(s): Vera Boneva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

The current text is a review of Anna Angelova's book „Bulgarian Oldprinted Editions 1806–1878: A study of the collection of the Sofia University Library „St. Kliment Ohridski“, 416 p., hardcover. The book includes two author's studies, a catalog of printed editions, stored in the library, and 734 handwritten notes from books and newspapers, left as written traces by owners, readers, and donors. The publication of the notes and a part of the author's analyzes are assessed as contributions to the history of the book. A number of criticisms have been formulated regarding the language normalization of manuscripts and titles and regarding the numerous typographical errors, which are noticeable in the book. My recommendation is for a more in-depth and extensive analysis of the studied corpus. Anna Angelova's book gives me a reason to keep insisting on a full digital corpus of the Revival editions and full-text publications of all old printed books on the Internet, including handwritten notes on them.

Praca z archiwum rodzinnym w utworach autobiograficznych Ludwiki Włodek i Katarzyny Surmiak-Domańskiej

Author(s): Magdalena Krzyżanowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2022

The study focuses on the archival work undertaken by Ludwika Włodek (Pra. Iwaszkiewiczowie. Opowieść o rodzinie, 2021) and Katarzyna Surmiak-Domańska (Czystka, 2021), who, in their autobiographical stories, not only attempt to reconstruct the life of early XXth century families but also to re-tell the stories of their grandmothers: Maria Iwaszkiewicz and Franciszka Surmiak. The analysis reflects on how the contact with archival materials influences the writers and opens them up about their ties with family members. It also explores the topic of the autobiographers’ trauma discovered in the stories with the help of different writing strategies (e.g., using the third person narrator, auctorial narration). Studying the stories focused on archived documents and interviews with family members allowed the author to draw up a thesis that it is not the process of writing that releases the writers’ difficult emotions connected with their past, but the work in the archives, which confronts them with deficits and empty spaces within the family history. The article also aims to verify the hypothesis about the new possible tendency in women’s storytelling oriented on the topic of family. The methodological background of the study relies on the works devoted to women’s autobiographical writing, and archival theory.

Author(s): Adam, Stanisław Kędzior / Language(s): Polish Issue: 10/2023

The Polish Museum and Library in Rapperswil has existed in various legal and organizational forms since 1870. From the moment it was established until Poland regained independence in 1918, the museum was funded by fees paid by Poles and foreigners who supported Poland’s struggle for independence. One significant group of donors (both regular and occasional) were residents of Greater Poland of all backgrounds. The most notable ones were: August Cieszkowski, Wawrzyniec Engeström, Witold Leitgeber, Karol Libelt, Maksymilian Jackowski, Stanisław Motty, Jadwiga Zamoyska, Władysław Zamoyski, Jan Konstanty Żupański, Juliusz Au, and Erazm Józef Jerzmanowski, whose short profiles are featured in the article. The compiled table lists the names of 54 occasional donors from Greater Poland, as well as the amount of their donation in the currency of the time, and an arbitrary estimate of its value according to the gold parity at the time.

Steller’s Sea Cow – Benedykt Dybowski’s Little-known Contributions to European Zoological Museography

Author(s): Piotr Daszkiewicz,Marcin Jan Kamiński,Dariusz Iwan / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2024

The article presents the contributions of Benedykt Dybowski to the natural history of Steller’s sea cow – a marine mammal species, that had become extinct in the 18th c. Dybowski’s impact is highlighted in his iconic discoveries concerning the biology of this species. Namely, he revealed and described the sexual dimorphism of the Steller’s sea cow and was the first to propose the climatic hypothesis concerning its extinction. Furthermore, Dybowski sent the largest number of skulls and bones representing this species to European museums in the 19th c. Today, these artifacts are deposited in seven museums in five countries (England, Ukraine, Poland, Austria, and Monaco). Unfortunately, specimens sent to Polish scientific institutions were looted or destroyed during both world wars. Sources examined in the present paper picture Dybowski as a prominent zoologist who worked within an international network of other outstanding specialists of that time – especially Władysław Taczanowski of the Warsaw Zoological Cabinet. The documents analyzed here shed new light on the work of naturalists and museum workers, revealing behind-the-scenes complexities of purchasing scarce and valuable zoological specimens.

МОДЕЛ БЛУМОВОГ ДИГИТАЛНОГ ТОЧКА У НАСТАВИ ПРИРОДЕ И ДРУШТВА

Author(s): Jelena Lukić,Miroslava Ristić,Sanja Blagdanić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2020

The aim of this paper is to determine the preconditions for successful integration of a hybrid teaching environment in the function of raising the level of quality of teaching nature and society. The modeling method was used in this paper. As a starting point, we used the Revised Blum taxonomy, ie. Blum's digital wheel taking into account students, teaching content, goals and methods when choosing applications. Blum's digital wheel ensures that teachers focus on all cognitive areas, which ensures the successful pedagogical integration of digital technology in activities that replace or redesign traditional teaching activities. The basic precondition for creating a safe and stimulating hybrid environment are the competencies of teachers, which are complex due to the number and constant redefining, and they consist of professional, methodological, pedagogical-psychological and digital competencies.

Vietnam’s cultural heritage protection laws (1900–2023) and their pros & cons from the position of Vietnam’s new generation: Case studies

Author(s): Nguyen Le Uyen Phuong / Language(s): English Issue: 25/2024

The article aims, first, to examine the evolution of cultural heritage protection in Vietnam from 1900 to 2023, focusing on the Vietnam War, renovation (1980–2000), and international integration (since 1987). Second, it analyses the Cultural Heritage Law 2001 and the Amending of Cultural Heritage Law 2009, the two main texts governing this field. Third, it presents case studies of the challenges and successes of cultural heritage protection as it is perceived by the Vietnamese new generation and by the Vietnam government as part of the market economy.The author observe that historical events strongly shaped the Vietnamese Cultural Heritage Law (CHL). Changing definitions of CHL over time reflect citizens’ ideology in conserving cultural heritage. Further, the Constitution of Vietnam (1946, 1959, 1980, and 1992) differs in its CHL orientation via three major stages. Every time legal basics and political situations change, CHL documents will serve various interests. Finally, the Vietnamese new generation’s cultural heritage education and distribution achievements are discussed.Author demonstrates that the Vietnam War was the most difficult time for CHL growth. Decree 65 and the 1946 Constitution’s generic definitions were responding to complex political conditions and were not intended to promote CHL. Vietnam became a socialist country under Soviet influence during reconstruction (1980–2000). The 1980 Constitution is strong enough to govern historic resource ownership and conservation, as is shown by new cultural heritage documents like Ordinance 14 (1984) and Decree 28 (1985). However, the ability to exploit heritage and obtain worldwide recognition was limited. Vietnamese CHL had access to international treaties and recommendations when Vietnam joined UNESCO in the international integration period (after 1987). In this period, the 1992 Constitution (internal role) and an international source (external role) inspired the 2001 CHL and 2009 Amendment to CHL. Both documents still play a principal main role in enabling Vietnam to enter the Heritage Economy.Young Vietnamese citizens’ achievements promote cultural values and involvement. However, Vietnamese teens have not paid attention to develop the legal aspects of CHL. Unanswered is the issue of whether Vietnam’s legal framework is robust enough to prevent abuses in heritage exploitation.

Author(s): Katia Rasheva-Yordanova,Georgi P. Dimitrov,Paulina T. Tsvetkova,Milena Bankovska,Pavel S. Petrov / Language(s): English Issue: XIV/2024

The palimpsests represent unique historical sources that hold the potential for new insights in the field of human history. These manuscripts, rewritten and reused over time, pose challenges in the research related to their readability and interpretation. The present study aims to investigate the readability of palimpsests through the use of image preprocessing techniques. The article focuses on methods for the preprocessing of palimpsests that could lead to a significant improvement in the readability of the 'hidden' text. The challenges encountered during the processing of palimpsests are explored and various techniques applicable to improving the readability of these manuscripts are analyzed. The primary goal of preprocessing in this context is to separate the 'hidden' text from the visible one, neutralizing material defects and aging. The article presents specific methods such as extracting specific color range from a palimsest image. The experimental techniques are highlighted with sample codes illustrating the application of the respective technology. The current research attempts to advance the development of methods for processing palimpsests and opens up new perspectives for extracting information from those historically valuable manuscripts.

Towards a Multimodal WordNet for Language Learning in Bulgarian

Author(s): Petya Osenova,Kiril Simov / Language(s): English Issue: XIV/2024

In this paper we present some modifications to and extensions of a Wordnet for Bulgarian designed to make it more appropriate for applications in the area of language learning. However, in order to support education, we need to ensure the appropriate selection of sets of synonyms (synsets) from BTB-Wordnet, depending on the education level of the learners, and various types of exercises based on integration of the learning topic and semantic information within Wordnet. For this purpose, our focus is mainly on the combination of the lexemes (lemmas), with their meanings and examples, and the specially designed pictures as illustrations of those meanings within the synsets. We report on our preliminary results.
