Flemish and Dutch Painters in the 17Th Century (Ljubljana 20-23 Oct 05) Flemish and Dutch painters in the 17th century (Ljubljana 20-23 Oct 05) Barbara Murovec Call for Papers Deadline for proposals: September 30, 2004 Flemish and Dutch painters in Central Europe and northern Italy in the late 17th century Researches into Baroque art on the Slovenian territory have been thriving again during the last few years. One of the themes about which numerous texts, some of them also debatable, have been recently published is certainly the painting of the second half of the 17th century in former Carniola, i.e. the central part of present-day Slovenia. Since this topic seems to attract a lot of interest among scholars, a decision has been made that a scientific symposium, Flemish and Dutch painters in Central Europe and northern Italy in the late 17th century. Almanach and the Painting of the Second Half of the 17th Century in Carniola, will be held in the autumn of 2005, co- organized by the Department of the History of Art at the Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana, the France Stele Institute of Art History at the Scientific Research Center of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts, and the National Gallery, Ljubljana. The event will also be accompanied by an exhibition. The principal thematic groups of the symposium will be: Almanach and other Flemish and Dutch masters active in the later half of the 17th century in Carniola (for example: Harman Verelst, Justus van der Nypoort, Ludvik de Clerick, Sebastian Verporto, Pieter Averex); issues related to the Carniolan noblemen as patrons and art-collectors; and wall- and oil paintings and various artistic furnishings in palaces and other kinds of aristocratic homes in Carniola. It is also our wish that the symposium covered the question of Flemish and Dutch masters active in (northern) Italy and the Habsburg lands, as well as the theme of European illusionistic and genre painting of the second half of the 17th century. The symposium will take place in Ljubljana from 20 through 23 October 2005. You are kindly invited to participate in it. Applications should include the title of the paper and a short summary (about 15 lines), and they should be submitted by 30 September 2004 to one of the two addresses below, where detailed further information can also be obtained. Most of 1/2 ArtHist.net the paintings that will be shown in the accompanying exhibition and are expected to be discussed by some participants have already been published by Federico Zeri and Ksenija Rozman in the catalogues of the National Gallery (Slovene-Italian bilingual exhibition catalogues of 1983, 1989 and 1993, and the English catalogue of 2000, European Paintings. Catalogue of the Collection), which are available in major art-history institutions. If it be your wish to include some of the Ljubljana paintings in your paper, we could provide you with further materials (digital photos, transparencies, data, etc.).

  • JULIAN ALPS TRIGLAV NATIONAL PARK 2The Julian Alps
    1 JULIAN ALPS TRIGLAV NATIONAL PARK www.slovenia.info 2The Julian Alps The Julian Alps are the southeast- ernmost part of the Alpine arc and at the same time the mountain range that marks the border between Slo- venia and Italy. They are usually divided into the East- ern and Western Julian Alps. The East- ern Julian Alps, which make up approx- imately three-quarters of the range and cover an area of 1,542 km2, lie entirely on the Slovenian side of the border and are the largest and highest Alpine range in Slovenia. The highest peak is Triglav (2,864 metres), but there are more than 150 other peaks over 2,000 metres high. The emerald river Soča rises on one side of the Julian Alps, in the Primorska re- gion; the two headwaters of the river Sava – the Sava Dolinka and the Sava Bohinjka – rise on the other side, in the Gorenjska region. The Julian Alps – the kingdom of Zlatorog According to an ancient legend a white chamois with golden horns lived in the mountains. The people of the area named him Zlatorog, or “Goldhorn”. He guarded the treasures of nature. One day a greedy hunter set off into the mountains and, ignoring the warnings, tracked down Zlatorog and shot him. Blood ran from his wounds Chamois The Triglav rose and fell to the ground. Where it landed, a miraculous plant, the Triglav rose, sprang up. Zlatorog ate the flowers of this plant and its magical healing powers made him invulnerable. At the same time, however, he was saddened by the greed of human beings.

  • On the Origin of Alpine Slovenes
    On the Origin of Alpine Slovenes Aleš Iglič University of Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia Some historians believe that Slovenes were drawn into the European cultural circle by (Bavarian) feudalism, although it is this very same feudalism that also prevented them access to the resources needed for their social and cultural development – it is precisely this fact, they suggest, that presented one of the most significant obstacles for the further development of the Slovene nation. We cannot agree with this viewpoint. Rather, Slovenes owe their inclusion in the medieval European civilisation, which originates from European antique traditions stemming from ancient Greece, primarily to Roman and other indigenous peoples, as well as to Christian missionaries from the non-Germanic parts of Europe (Iglič, 2007a), i.e. Ireland and the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, who spread Christianity and the culture of the antiquity in the region of the Diocese of Salzburg, from where missionaries came to Carantania, Carniola and Lower Pannonia (Fig. 1). The first Apostle of Carantania Modestus, for example, was sent to Carantania on the orders of the Irish monk Vergilius of Salzburg (Gruden, 1992). Overall, Irish monks contributed greatly to the preservation of the European civilisation in the Early Middle Ages also in other parts of Europe (Cahill, 1995). By passing on the preserved antique knowledge, for example literacy, onto the barbarian peoples, Byzantine missionaries from Greece and Aquileia (Grivec, 1927; Bratož, 1990) as well as Irish missionaries (monks) preserved the European civilisation, which is based on the accomplishments of ancient Greece in the fields of philosophy, science, art, and political organisation (democracy).

  • LOST WORLD in CARNIOLA. F. S. Copeland
    go LOST WORLD IN CARNIOLA LOST WORLD IN CARNIOLA BY F. S. COPELAND 1 o visitors from the west, the whole of the Ancient and Honour­ able Duchy of Carniola, now the greater part of the Dravska Banovina in N.W. Jugoslavia, appears something of a lost world, surprisingly beautiful and interesting, with Alps that rival the Dolomites in fantastic ruggedness; with its mysterious Kras (Karst), which is one of the places good geographers go to when they die ; and with its sunny, friendly valleys, where many old-world ways and traditions survive despite the annual invasion of tourists from all over Jugoslavia, Central EYrope and Germany, with here and there a Briton or an American as well. But within Carniola there is a real Lost World, almost as much so as that described by Conan Doyle, where, by a three hours' ascent, you· recede through untold centuries and enter a region generally believed to have been at all times merely the creation of poets' fancy. For here is Arcadia. Sixteen miles north of Ljubljana, with all its pride in modernity, rise the Kamnik Alps, last upheaval of the true limestone Alps of Central Europe towards the east. South of their serrated backbone of peaks lies a wide upland, from 4500 to nearly 5500 ft. in height, about three miles by two in extent, part pasture and part forest. It is divided into three planine, or mountain pastures, Velika, Mala, and Gojska, the Great, Little, and Forest Fell. But the whole complex is usually referred to as V elika Planina, the Great Fell.

  • Slovenia As an Outpost of Th~ Third Reich
    SLOVENIA AS AN OUTPOST OF TH~ THIRD REICH By HELGA HORIAK HARRIMAN 1\ Bachelor of Arts Wells College Aurora, New York 1952 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1969 STATE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY SEP 29 1969 SLOVENIA AS AN OUTPOST OF THE THIRD REICH Thesis Approved: Dean of the Graduate College ii PREFACE This study is concerned primarily with the Nazi occupation of Northern Yugoslavia during 1941 and 1942. Hitler's plan for converting Slovenia into a germanized frontier zone of the Third Reich is assessed in the light of Slovene history, most particularly since 1918. The evidence for the Nazi resettlement program designed to achieve Hitler's goal came from manuscript documents, which were written largely by the SS officers in charge of population manipulation. I wish to express appreciation to members of my advisory committee t from the Department of History at Oklahoma State University who gave helpful criticism in the preparation of the text. Professor Douglas Hale served as committee chairman and offered valuable advice concern- ing the study from its inception to its conclusion. Professor George Jewsbury imparted to its development his own keen understanding of Eastern Europe. To Professors John Sylvester and Charles Dollar, who read the study in its final form, I am also indebted. In addition, I wish to thank my father, Dr. E. A. V. Horiak, for his insightful comments. Dr. Joseph Suhadolc of the Department of For- eign Languages at Northern Illinois University gave freely of his time in reviewing the text.

  • Foreign Royalty and Balkan Thrones in the 19Th Century – the Case Of
    2021-4234-HIS – 04 MAY 2021 th 1 "Foreign Royalty and Balkan Thrones in the 19 2 Century – The Case of Serbia" 3 4 This article will explore and explain the reasons and circumstances behind 5 this.The article describes several attempts in installing foreign monarchs in 6 Serbia. The modern Serbian monarchyexisted from 1804 to 1918, while in 7 Montenegro a secular monarchy which was strongly related to Serbian state 8 traditions was established in 1852 and dissolved after the end of WWI. 9 During the period of the existence of national monarchies in the Balkans 10 (during the 19th and first half of the 20th century),foreign dynasties were 11 installedon the thrones of all Balkan national states, save Serbia and 12 Montenegro.. The main hypothesisis that the interests and aspirations of 13 Austria-Hungary and Russia stopped all of the said attempts 14 15 16 Serbia and the Monarchy in the 19th Century 17 18 The status of Serbia was defined during the 19th century. Until the 19 Uprising against Ottoman rule in 1804, Serbs did not enjoy any kind of 20 autonomy. The rebel state and later the autonomous principality was 21 established in the Belgrade Pashalik, previously a military-administrative 22 territory at the Northern border of the Ottoman Empire, and had the same status 23 as other pashaliks. 1 During the First Serbian Uprising (1804-1813) the 24 Belgrade Pashalik and some neighbouring territories were united together in a 25 revolutionary state 2 in which ahereditary monarchy was established. Black 26 George (Karadjordje Petrovich3), the leader of the First Serbian Uprising, thus 27 became the first monarch of modern Serbia.

  • Bay of Piran Or Bay of Savudrija
    A Mediterranean Example of Problematic Treatment of Geographical Names: Piranski zaliv (Bay of Piran) or Savudrijska vala (Bay of Savudrija)? Drago Kladnik, Milan Orožen Adamič, Primož Pipan ABSTRACT: The established geographical name Bay of Piran refers to the largest bay in the Gulf of Trieste at the extreme north end of the Adriatic Sea. After the collapse of Yugoslavia and the emergence of independent countries demarcated along the borders of the former Yugoslav republics, the previously undemarcated body of water between Slovenia and Croatia became the focus of a border dispute between the two countries. The name ‘Bay of Piran’ (Sln. Piranski zaliv, Cro. Piranski zaljev) is derived from the Italian name Vallone di Pirano ‘Bay of Piran’, which replaced the Italian name Valle di Sicciole ‘Bay of Sečovlje’ (as well as Ital. Valle di Siciole, Sln. Sečoveljski zaliv) a century and half ago. Since 2000 there have been Croatian attempts to establish the completely new name ‘Bay of Savudrija’ (Cro. Savudrijska vala, Sln. Savudrijski zaliv). KEYWORDS: geographical names, sea name, border conflict, Mediterranean Sea, Adriatic Sea, Piranski zaliv, Piranski zaljev, Savudrijska vala ADDRESSES: Drago Kladnik Anton Melik Geographical Institute Scientific Research Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts Gosposka ulica 13, SI-1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia E-mail: [email protected] Milan Orožen Adamič Anton Melik Geographical Institute Scientific Research Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts Gosposka ulica 13, SI-1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia E-mail: [email protected] Primož Pipan Anton Melik Geographical Institute Scientific Research Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts Gosposka ulica 13, SI-1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia E-mail: [email protected] 1 Introduction Geographical names for regions, bodies of water, relief forms, and parcels of land, administrative units, and local features that form the basis for the names of inhabitants are unique spiritual, cultural, social, historical, and political indicators.
