A ĐE JE TO NAŠE? BOŠNJACI-SANDŽAK-BOSNA

Author(s): Ismet Dedeic / Language(s): Bosnian / Issue: 65-66/2015

Selmanaga Kardović, ratnik s Galipolja, bio je jedan od glavnih junaka mog djetinjstva u Rožajama. On je izrazitim govorničkim darom zarazno privlačio publiku, a posebno pričom o tom Galipolju, bitci nad svim bitkama iz Prvog svjetskog rata. Tada je Turska uspjela da zadrži strateške moreuze Bosfor i Dardanele i porazi ujedinjene snage Britanskog Kraljevstva i Francuske. Pričao bi Selmanaga da su napadači granatama preoravali i zatrpavali linije branilaca, ali bi ovi, kad krene pješadija, uvijek iznova iznicali iz čudesnih podzemnih tvrđava i fanatično išli prsa u prsa, iza čega bi Galipolje ostajalo prekriveno hiljadama, a ponekad i desetinama hiljada mrtvih.

A LUPA CAPITOLINA ÚJABB ÁBRÁZOLÁSA AQUINCUMBÓL

Author(s): András Márton / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 1-2/2002

Bei einer Fundrettungsgrabung in der Bécsi út 62 wurden mehrere römische behauene Steindenkmäler gefunden (Abb. 1a; Abb. 1b.1), die in die erste Periode des Gräberfeldes, ins 2. Jahrhundert zu datieren sind. Das interessanteste von ihnen ist das Fragment einer Grabstele mit der Darstellung der lupa Capitolina. Das Fragment ist der untere Teil einer sehr großen Stele, der sich ursprünglich unter dem Inschriftenfeld befand (Abb. 2–3). Aus Aquincum ist eine genaue Parallele dieses Fragments bekannt: Das von Annamária Facsády publizierte Stück mit der gleichen Darstellung aus dem Gräberfeld Bécsi út folgt nicht nur demselben ikonographischen Typ, sondern ist aufgrund der Steinmetztechnik auch ein Werk derselben Hand. Mit Hilfe der intakteren Darstellung der erwähnten Grabstele ist nicht nur der abgebrochene Teil unseres Steines, sondern auch seine Originalbemalung mit völliger Sicherheit zu ergänzen. Die Gestalt auf der linken Seite der Komposition trägt tunika und sagum (Abb. 4.1). Der obere Teil der Gestalt ist abgebrochen, ursprünglich hielt sie einen Hirtenstab in der rechten Hand. Neben ihr ist der Rest des unteren Teils des Baumes zu sehen, dessen Äste sie auf der ursprünglichen Darstellung mit der Hand berührte.

A multi-objective optimization approach of housing in Algeria. A step towards sustainability

Author(s): Khadidja El-Bahdja Djebbar,Souria Salem,Abderrahmane Mokhtari / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2018

The present study focuses on the evaluation of the energy and environmental performance (EEP) of a typical multi-storey building in Tlemcen, Algeria. It aims to contribute to the development of Algeria’s thermal regulation by establishing a list of actions to be taken in short, medium and long term, in terms of thermal rehabilitation in existing housing areas as well as in new ones, in urban regions with a similar climate. An appropriate multi-criteria methodology is developed by determining its thermal performance using a static method as well as establishing a multi- objective strategy of EEP optimization. The assessment of: the potential of primary-energy-saving and that of the CO2-emissions’ reduction and indoor-environmental-quality of a real state of construction by simulation using DesignBuilder software, together with investment-cost are reported. Therefore, this study is conducted using the potential of parametric evaluation methodology to investigate the impact of passive energy-efficiency-measures on the building envelope from energy, environmental, economic and thermal-comfort points of view. Insulation and ventilation reduction are the main measures saving more than 75% of energy and 44% of CO2-emissions. Besides, the winter comfort is significantly improved. But from the economic standpoint, policy measures must be taken; namely tariffs reforms and energy control law enforcement.

A new gate-tower type in Pannonia Inferior. The northern gate of Annamatia

Author(s): Péter Kovács / Language(s): English / Issue: 1-3/2006

Roman forts can several times be dated only on the basis of the ground-plans of their gate-towers. This observation is true in the case of the forts in the Pannonian provinces as well. Here the earlier hypothesis that most of the Pannonian earth-timber castella were built into stone only after the Marcomannic wars on the basis of the gate-towers (projecting in the ratio 1/3:2/3 from the face of the fort wall) was confirmed by archaeological evidence in several places. In this paper we publish an earlier unknown gate type from Annamatia (Pannonia Inferior, Baracs) which was uncovered in the years 2000–2001.

A PERJÁMOSI SÍR (1885) ÉS HELYE AZ 5. SZÁZADI LEMEZFIBULÁS NŐI TEMETKEZÉSEK KÖZÖTT

Author(s): Péter Prohászka / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 1-2/2003

In Perjámos (heute Periam, Rum.) wurde 1885 ein Grab mit Beigaben aus der Völkerwanderungszeit gefunden, in dem sich auch zwei große Silberblechfibeln befanden, die für eine spezielle Gruppe der Frauenbestattungen des 5. Jahrhunderts typisch sind. Die Funde kamen noch in demselben Jahr ins Ungarische Nationalmuseum und wurden schon 1886 von Ferenc Pulszky, dem damaligen Direktor des Museums, im Archaeologiai Értesítő veröffentlicht (Abb. 1–2).1–2 Interessant an seiner Studie ist, daß er außer einer kurzen Beschreibung der Gegenstände vor allem über den parallelen Fund von Ilok detailliert berichtet. So hat er sich weder mit dem Fundort noch mit den Fundumständen beschäftigt. József Hampel hat in seinen monumentalen Werken von 1894 und 1905 den Perjámoser Fund etwas ausführlicher behandelt, 3 wir erfahren von ihm beispielsweise, daß es sich um Beigaben einer Skelettbestattung handelte. Die wissenschaftlichen Publikationen, die auf diese Fundgegenstände hinweisen, berufen sich bis heute auf Hampels Werk, so daß eine kritische Aufarbeitung des Perjámoser Grabes nötig wurde. Diese wurde durch die Berichte von der Auffindung bzw. die amtliche Korrespondenz über die Verbringung ins Museum gefördert, auf die ich im Historischen Datenarchiv des Ungarischen Nationalmuseums gestoßen bin. Damit stehen Briefe und Berichte mit zahlreichen wichtigen Angaben zur Verfügung, die bei den bisherigen Untersuchungen nicht berücksichtigt wurden. In einem Brief vom 2. Juni 1885 informierte der Vizegespan des Kom. Torontál, Béla Tallián, das Ungarische Nationalmuseum über die Funde von Perjámos, die am 21. Mai bei Erdarbeiten entdeckt wurden.

A picture of the Slavic world through the prism of a 19th century Macedonian manuscript (transfering knowledge and ideas)

Author(s): Biljana Ristovska-Josifovska / Language(s): English / Issue: 1(25)/2019

The «Slavic-Macedonian General History», a manuscript from the end of the 19th century, is the object of our interest. The author, Ǵorǵija M. Pulevski, died in 1893 and the manuscript remained unpublished until 2003. The work is comprised of three parts: a historical text presenting events from the earliest history through the Ottoman rule, up to the foundation of the national states of the Balkan Slavic peoples; an ethnography of the Balkan population; and a section on grammar. Taking the first steps in writing historiography, the author based his work on concepts of various authors. He glorified Macedonia’s past and highlighted the Slavic element in the Macedonian ethnogenesis, but he also wrote of the Balkan peoples, especially Slavic peoples. Considering representations of the past, we take into consideration the historical circumstances, characteristics of the time, as well as the author’s personal identity and views. In this analysis we try to define the place of this manuscript among contemporary works, analyzing it as a historical display.

A Pilgrimage through Traditional Romania

Memory, History, Religion: Exploring Irish-Romanian Boundaries in Peter Hurley’s THE WAY OF THE CROSSES

Author(s): Nicoleta Stanca / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2016

This paper will look at the manner in which Romania is perceived by an Irishman, Peter Hurley, living here for twenty years, traveling on foot from Săpânța to Bucharest (26 days, 650 kilometers) and recounting it all in a book, The Way of the Crosses (2013). The title of Hurley’s book may have been inspired by a hybrid Irish-Romanian experience, signaled to the author by another Irishman, Shaun Davey, who, in 2009, composed music triggered by the “lyrics” of the epitaphs on the crosses in the Merry Cemetery of Săpânța, Romania. Traveling, being inspired by Romanian landscape and culture, with the background of the Irish writer’s “sense of place”, Hurley’s account is meant to reach audiences beyond the Romanian border and enable further interaction. The project of walking the way of the crosses and the writing about it, drawing maps and showing pictures fit in the Irish author’s preoccupations with bringing to the fore authentic traditional Romania. His travel writing becomes a means through which Romanian-Irish personal and collective memory are transmitted beyond boundaries, avoiding ideological perspectives, using elements such as Dacian pottery, Romanian ceramic production today and the story of the last family of potters in Maramureș. The translation of aspects of Romanian culture involves recalling legends, rituals, beliefs, stories, historical accounts, which are resituated in a transnational context (for instance, haystack making in Maramureș and the West of Ireland, Romanian children in popular costumes playing with plastic Chinese-made toy-guns, a Romanian peasant as the Last of the Mahicans). Hybridity also results from the author’s bilingualism (e.g. praying at a troiță in Romanian and translating the prayer into English in the book or keeping the Romanian words for “traistă”, “horincă”, “zacuscă”, “șindrile”).

A PROMINENT HEPHTHALITE: KATULPH AND THE FALL OF THE HEPHTHALITE EMPIRE

Author(s): Szabolcs Felföldi / Language(s): English / Issue: 2-3/2001

The Byzantine author Menander Protector reports the story of (Katulph), a member of Hephthalite nobility. This prominent Hephthalite took part in the events of the defeat of the Hephthalite Empire. He was one of the most important political persons of that epoch and area, someone who was the advisor not just of the Hephthalite ruler, but later the Türk Istämi and what is more the Persian Great King Xusrö Anösarwän I. This treatise deals with the so far unexamined story and tries to define who Katulph actually was. Beside the thorough examination of the Byzantine source and the name Katulph I clarify some serious misunderstandings (such as the identification of Katulph with the last Hephthalite ruler), which are widespread in the secondary sources (for example in the works of Drouin, Haussig and Ghirshman).

A SHORT HISTORY OF POLISH-UKRAINIAN TERMINOGRAPHY

Author(s): Marek Wojciech Lukasik / Language(s): English / Issue: 16/2016

Specialised dictionaries fulfil a plethora of linguistic and cognitive functions in specialised communication. In particular, such reference works help introduce, harmonise and standardise national terminologies, thus playing an indispensable role in disseminating high quality specialised knowledge. An even more important role may be attributed to bilingual and multilingual specialised dictionaries, whose primary goal is to facilitate the flow of scientific and technical information at an international level. This function has come to the fore in today’s multinational and interconnected professional world. In light of the developing and ever stronger cooperation between Poland and Ukraine, an attempt is being made to evaluate bilingual and multilingual terminographic works containing Polish and Ukrainian which have been published in Poland to date. The aim is to assess the positive developments and to identify the gaps in Polish-Ukrainian terminography. It is hoped that the findings presented in this paper will be applied by terminographers in order to compile terminological dictionaries of higher quality, which satisfy the needs of specific users and follow terminographic principles.

A STUDY ON COMPARATIVE ADVERTISING IN SOCIAL MEDIA: EXAMPLE OF TURKEY AND POLAND

Author(s): Ishan Eken / Language(s): English / Issue: Special/2014

Developments on globalization and communication technologies has effected advertisement as well as many other areas. New advertisement channels has come out by the Improvement in communication technologies. Social media is gaining more importance day by day in whole world and in our country, and the market share is increasing in whole advertisement channels. Consequently, social media is turning into an important advertisement channel. One of the methods used in advertisement is comparative advertisement. In comparative advertisement, both the advertiser submits his product's good quality compared to competitors and the consumer can have a chance to compare the products and make a better choice. Conversely, if the comparison in the advertisement is not objective, misleading and false informative, the advertiser exploitation and consumer misleading can occur; if the comparative advertisement is banned this can prevent the positive effects that should be reflected to competition and the consumer. At that point, the limits of the comparative advertisement must be determined. Depending on this, to see the effects of social media and globalization easily, the study purposes to observe the comparative advertisements used on social media in Turkey and Poland by content analysis method.

A Survey of Subjective Opinions of Population about Seismic Resistance of Residential Buildings

Author(s): Dunja Demirovic,Kristina T. Košic,Vasile Surd,Lejla Žunic,Yulia A. Syromiatnikova / Language(s): English / Issue: 3/2017

The unpredictability and the seriousness of the potential earthquake consequences for people and residential buildings in Serbia imply the need for improving the resilience of local communities. The paper presents the results of a quantitative research regarding the level and factors of influence on the awareness of citizens about the seismic resistance of their residential buildings to earthquake consequences. Multiple-point random sampling was used to survey 1,018 citizens (face to face) during 2017 in 8 local communities: Kraljevo, Lazarevac, Jagodina, Mionica, Prijepolje, Vranje, Lapovo and Kopaonik. The questionnaire consisted of two segments: questions on demographic, socio-economic and psychological characteristics of respondents and questions regarding resistance of residential buildings to earthquake consequences. The results show that 35% of respondents state that they live in residential buildings that are not resistant to earthquakes, while 70.7% state that they live in buildings built of reinforced concrete, which are considered safe. Beside that 9.2% of respondents examined the resistance of their facilities to earthquake consequences. Inferential statistical analyses show that men to a greater extent than women state that their buildings are resistant to earthquake consequences. Starting from the multidimensionality of citizen vulnerability to earthquakes, it is necessary to conduct additional studies and further elucidate the sociological dimension of vulnerability and resilience.

A székelyföldi unitáriusok demográfiai térfolyamatai a népszámlálási adatok tükrében

Author(s): Tamás Illés / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 1/2019

Research on Unitarians has a distinguished tradition, mainly focusing on the historical features directly linked to this denomination, with a special attention paid to the events of the second half of the 16th century. However, placing denominational changes in geo-spatial terms has been rather neglected so far and a comprehensive scrutiny aiming to contextualize the spatial dynamics of Unitarian communities on a regional scale is missing. In order to remedy this shortcoming, this article addresses the territorial aspects of Unitarians’ population changes between 1850 and 2011, relative to other denominations in the area. Data from the 1850, 1880, 1910, 1941, 1992, 2002 and 2011 censuses are the primary sources, to which several quantitative methods have been applied. Additionally, fourteen thematic maps have been created. Th e analysis focuses on the counties of Mureș, Harghita and Covasna, the EU’s NUTS 3 administrative units of Székely Land. The results show that Unitarians have increased their numbers in the region since 1850. However, they have lost space, in terms of geographic distribution, to other denominations. And so the formerly prosperous Unitarian settlements have been gradually disadvantaged in the changing socio-economic milieu.

A Tale of Two Ahmadiyya Mosques: Religion, Ethnic Politics, and Urban Planning in London

Author(s): Marzia Balzani / Language(s): English / Issue: 3/2015

Built on the site of a disused dairy in London, the Ahmadiyya Baitul Futuh Mosque is simultaneously a regenerated postindustrial site, a signal achievement for the community that built it, an affront to local Sunni Muslims, a focus for Islamophobic protest, and a boost to local regeneration plans and tourism. Using town planning documents, media articles, and ethnographic fieldwork, this article considers the conflicting discourses available to locals, Muslim and non-Muslim, centered on the new Baitul Futuh Mosque and an older, smaller, suburban Ahmadiyya mosque located nearby. These discourses are situated in the broader transnational context of sectarian violence and creation of community where ethnicity, faith, and immigration status mark those who attend the mosques. The article considers the different historical periods in which the two mosques were built, the class composition of residents in the neighborhoods of the mosques, and the consequences these have for how the mosques are incorporated into the locality. The strategies diverse local groups use to define the space in different and conflicting terms, and their cross-cutting claims, are discussed to present a range of religious, political, and ethnic positions shaping ideals of self-realization and aspirations for the future at individual and community levels.

A TECHNOLOGICAL APPROACH OF A MICROLITHIC ASSEMBLAGE: THE SITE OF TATA (MIDDLE PALAEOLITHIC, HUNGARY)

Author(s): MARIE-HÉLÈNE MONCEL / Language(s): English / Issue: 1-2/2001

The palaeolithic site Tata dated to the oxygen isotopic stage 5 is famous for its very strange lithic assemblage, most of which are smaller than 30 mm. Other OIS 5 sites in Central Europe have yielded microlithic assemblages which are not always related to the specific raw material conditions. The technological analysis of the cores provides new patterns about the technological choice for flaking, which seems to belong to a specific tradition.This hypothesis could be confirmed by the comparative studies of several Middle European microlithic assemblages from OIS 11 to 4–3.

A Theban tomb of the late Third Intermediate Period on El-Khokha

Author(s): Gábor Schreiber,Zsolt Vasáros / Language(s): English / Issue: 1-3/2005

The profound social changes occuring under the late Ramessides and the early years of the Libyan rule have not remained without an effect on Egyptian material culture. One of the best indicators of this phenomenon is funerary art and, more specifically, the funerary artefacts retrieved from the tombs of the Theban necropolis. Although the material from regional cemeteries in Middle Egypt, the Delta and especially the royal necropolis at Tanis also provides valuable data to a better understanding of the characteristics of this change, it is only at Thebes that a vast sequence of tomb groups preserved by favorable climatic conditions can serve as a basis for more elaborate studies yielding a compass for the assessment of contemporary corpora throughout Egypt. The significance of the Theban material was already recognised by early scholars following the discovery of tomb groups in Deir el-Bahari, the Ramesseum and other sites at Thebes. More recent investigations have also convincingly shown that the period between the 11th and mid-7th c. BC is far from being homogeneous with regard to cultural patterns and paradigms expressed in material culture. Relying on typological studies of various genres of this material,2 the production of the 21st and early 22nd dynasties is now safely distinguishable from the preceding and successive Theban corpora. The present study offers a summary of the digging activities carried out in a mortuary complex that dates to the second part of the Third Intermediate Period, i.e., the late 22nd and 25th dynasties.
