None of it would have been possible without the help and support from an amazing network of family, colleagues, and friends. First and foremost, a big thank you to the most caring, attentive, and conscientious supervisor one could hope for, Dr. Katerina Dalacoura. Her help, guidance, and critiques from the first draft chapter to the final drafts of the thesis have always been a source of clarity when there was too much clouding my thoughts. -

Application of Link Integrity Techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web
UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science Department of Electronics and Computer Science A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD Supervisor: Prof. Wendy Hall and Dr Les Carr Examiner: Dr Nick Gibbins Application of Link Integrity techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web by Rob Vesse February 10, 2011 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD by Rob Vesse As the Web of Linked Data expands it will become increasingly important to preserve data and links such that the data remains available and usable. In this work I present a method for locating linked data to preserve which functions even when the URI the user wishes to preserve does not resolve (i.e. is broken/not RDF) and an application for monitoring and preserving the data. This work is based upon the principle of adapting ideas from hypermedia link integrity in order to apply them to the Semantic Web.

Mexico: Politics and Warfare (1810-1876) by John P
Mexico: Politics and Warfare (1810-1876) by John P. Schmal (SHHAR Presentation, May 12, 2018) Copyright © 2018 John P. Schmal The Beginning of the Independence Movements (1808) At the beginning of the Nineteenth Century, Mexico was a colony of Spain, a European nation located approximately 5,500 miles (8,850 kilometers) from its Gulf Coast shoreline. In 1810, the Spanish Empire consisted of 13.7 million square kilometers (5.3 million square miles) and occupied 9.2% of the world’s land area, most of which was in the Americas. Spain had the fifth largest empire in world history. But In 1808, French forces under Emperor Napoleon invaded the Iberian peninsula, leading to a series of events that would eventually result in the death of the Spanish Empire and the independence of Mexico. The Spanish Empire at its Height Copyright © 2018 John P. Schmal 2 Setting the Stage for Rebellion: France Invades Spain In 1807, Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte lured King Carlos IV of Spain and forced him to abdicate his throne. Napoleon then declared that his brother, Joseph Bonaparte, would become the new King of Spain and, in March 1808, 100,000 French troops invaded Spain under the pretense of protecting the country's coast line from the British, with whom France was in a state of war. Napoleon Bonaparte Emperor Napoleon quickly defeated the Spanish and entered Madrid in triumph. But the 300,000 French troops stationed on Spanish soil were soon faced with a very effective guerilla resistance by the Spanish people. By 1813, the Spanish people, with the help of British forces, were able to drive the French from the Iberian Peninsula. -

Abstract Despite the fact that 30,000 French troops invaded Mexico in the 1860s and installed Maximilian in power and created the Second Mexican Empire, Mexican liberals put up a sustained guerilla military resistance. But this paper examines a different significant battle, the one that took place on the political front. Both Maximilian and the liberal resistance that opposed him led by Juárez sought diplomatic support and recognition. At the time, not only was Mexico divided, but also the U.S. since the country was in the middle of the Civil War. This paper examines the attempts Maximilian and Juárez made to gain recognition and support during this complicated period during which the Union had to weigh the impact that its action in Mexico might have on France’s attitudes about the American Civil War.

In this article, the role of music in the relationship between the states and societies is analysed from the time of first diplomatic relationship to the time of the collapse of Ottoman Empire. Additionally, we examined the phenomenon of the use of music as a diplomatic and politic instrument between these countries by specific examples.The main sources of this article were predominantly obtained in the Ottoman Archive, National Archive and British Library. The catalogue numbers of some of them were presented in conclusion, with the thought that they can be used in the future project.

A Habsburg on the Mexican Throne
GROTIUS – KÖZLEMÉNYEK David VOGEL Emperador Maximiliano – A Habsburg on the Mexican Throne Emperor Maximilian http://www.nevadaobserver.com/TNO%20Reference%20Page%20File/Maximilan,%20Emperor%20of%20Mexico.jpg Preface As the topic of my essay, I’ve chosen a historical event of maybe less importance, although with many peculiarities. The story of an archduke from the imperial and royal family of Habsburg-Lorraine accepting the invitation of the French Emperor to occupy the throne of a country that is 10 000 kilometres away from his home could be the object-lesson of great powers playing. The aim of the study is to give an insight in this short moment of Mexico’s history and to show a picture of Hungarian soldiers fighting on Latin American soil. 1 GROTIUS – KÖZLEMÉNYEK Historical Background The first half of the nineteenth century started really eventfully for Mexico. The 1910s were spent achieving independence, the subsequent decade brought a short-lived empire and then major territorial losses in due course followed by instability, which further weakened the young state. The situation was still aggravated by the war fought against the USA between 1846 and 1848. In the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ending the two-year war Mexico lost one third of its territory: Texas, furthermore the bigger part of California, Arizona and New-Mexico. In the fifties the policy of consolidation of the Amerindian (Zapotec) president Benito Juarez ensued, which is remembered by the public under the name of La Reforma1. , it was impossible for his reforms to result in significant changes in the little time at his disposal and they only contributed to the stability of the country to a limited extent.
