The Book Art in Croatia Exhibition Catalogue
Book Art in Croatia BOOK ART IN CROATIA National and University Library in Zagreb, Zagreb, 2018 Contents Foreword / 4 Centuries of Book Art in Croatia / 5 Catalogue / 21 Foreword The National and University Library in Croatia, with the aim to present and promote the Croatian cultural heritage has prepared the exhibition Book Art in Croatia. The exhibition gives a historical view of book preparation and design in Croatia from the Middle Ages to the present day. It includes manuscript and printed books on different topics and themes, from mediaeval evangelistaries and missals to contemporary illustrated editions, print portfolios and artists’ books. Featured are the items that represent the best samples of artistic book design in Croatia with regard to their graphic design and harmonious relationship between the visual and graphic layout and content. The author of the exhibition is art historian Milan Pelc, who selected 60 items for presentation on panels. In addition to the introductory essay, the publication contains the catalogue of items with short descriptions. 4 Milan Pelc CENTURIES OF BOOK ART IN CROATIA Introduction Book art, a constituent part of written culture and Croatian cultural heritage as a whole, is ex- ceptionally rich and diverse. This essay does not pretend to describe it in its entirety. Its goal is to shed light on some (key) moments in its complex historical development and point to its most important specificities. The essay does not pertain to entire Croatian literary heritage, but only to the part created on the historical Croatian territory and created by the Croats. Namely, with regard to its origins, the Croatian literary heritage can be divided into three big groups. -

Vienna Guide
April 22—24, 2015, Vienna, Austria Hotel Park Royal Palace Vienna Guide SIGHTSEEING Vienna is old, Vienna is new… and the sights are so varied: from the magnificent Baroque buildings to “golden” Art Nouveau to the latest architecture. And over 100 museums beckon… ALBERTINA The Albertina has the largest and most valuable graphical collection in the world, including works such as Dürer’s “Hare” and Klimt‘s studies of women. Its latest exhibition presents masterpieces of the Modern era, spanning from Monet to Picasso and Baselitz. As the largest Hapsburg residential palace, the Albertina dominates the southern tip of the Imperial Palace on one of the last remaining fortress walls in Vienna. ANKER CLOCK This clock (built 1911–14) was created by the painter and sculptor Franz von Matsch and is a typical Art Nouveau design. It forms a bridge between the two parts of the Anker Insurance Company building. In the course of 12 hours, 12 historical figures (or pairs of figures) move across the bridge. Every day at noon, the figures parade, each accompanied by music from its era. AUGARTEN PORCELAIN MANUFacTORY Founded in 1718, the Vienna Porcelain Manufactory is the second-oldest in Europe. Now as then, porcelain continues to be made and painted by hand. Each piece is thus unique. A tour of the manufactory in the former imperial pleasure palace at Augarten gives visitors an idea of how much love for detail goes into the making of each individual piece. The designs of Augarten have been created in cooperation with notable artists since the manufactory was established. -

The Botanical Exploration of Angola by Germans During the 19Th and 20Th Centuries, with Biographical Sketches and Notes on Collections and Herbaria
Blumea 65, 2020: 126–161 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/blumea RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/blumea.2020.65.02.06 The botanical exploration of Angola by Germans during the 19th and 20th centuries, with biographical sketches and notes on collections and herbaria E. Figueiredo1, *, G.F. Smith1, S. Dressler 2 Key words Abstract A catalogue of 29 German individuals who were active in the botanical exploration of Angola during the 19th and 20th centuries is presented. One of these is likely of Swiss nationality but with significant links to German Angola settlers in Angola. The catalogue includes information on the places of collecting activity, dates on which locations botanical exploration were visited, the whereabouts of preserved exsiccata, maps with itineraries, and biographical information on the German explorers collectors. Initial botanical exploration in Angola by Germans was linked to efforts to establish and expand Germany’s plant collections colonies in Africa. Later exploration followed after some Germans had settled in the country. However, Angola was never under German control. The most intense period of German collecting activity in this south-tropical African country took place from the early-1870s to 1900. Twenty-four Germans collected plant specimens in Angola for deposition in herbaria in continental Europe, mostly in Germany. Five other naturalists or explorers were active in Angola but collections have not been located under their names or were made by someone else. A further three col- lectors, who are sometimes cited as having collected material in Angola but did not do so, are also briefly discussed. Citation: Figueiredo E, Smith GF, Dressler S. -

Introducing Narratives in Europeana: a Case Study
Int. J. Appl. Math. Comput. Sci., 2019, Vol. 29, No. 1, 7–16 DOI: 10.2478/amcs-2019-0001 INTRODUCING NARRATIVES IN EUROPEANA: A CASE STUDY a,∗ a a a CARLO MEGHINI ,VALENTINA BARTALESI ,DANIELE METILLI ,FILIPPO BENEDETTI aNetworked Multimedia Information Systems Laboratory Institute of Information Science and Technologies “Alessandro Faedo”—CNR Via Giuseppe Moruzzi 1, 56124 Pisa, Italy e-mail: {carlo.meghini,valentina.bartalesi}@isti.cnr.it, {daniele.metilli,filippo.benedetti}@isti.cnr.it We present a preliminary study to introduce narratives as a first-class functionality in digital libraries. The general idea is to enrich those libraries with semantic networks of events providing a meaningful contextualisation of the digital libraries’ objects. More specific motivations are presented through a set of use cases by different actors who would benefit from using narratives for different purposes. Then, we consider a specific digital library, Europeana, the largest European digital library in the cultural heritage domain. We discuss how the Europeana Data Model could be extended for representing narratives, and we introduce an ontology for narratives. We also present a semi-automatic tool, which, on the basis of the ontology, supports the creation and visualisation of narratives, and we show how the tool has been employed to create a narrative of the life of the painter Gustav Klimt as a case study. In particular, we focus our attention on the functionality of the tool that allows extracting and proposing to the user specific digital objects for each event of the narrative. Keywords: digital libraries, narratives, Europeana, ontologies. 1. Introduction in the Europeana Data Model (EDM)2 the concept of event was introduced. -
A) Evoluția Instituției În Raport Cu Mediul În Care Își Desfășoară Activitatea
A) Evoluția instituției în raport cu mediul în care își desfășoară activitatea 1. Colaborarea cu instituții, organizații, grupuri informale care se adresează aceleiași comunități Muzeul Național Peleș este cea mai importantă și reprezentativă instituție muzeală de rang național, nu numai din Sinaia, ci și de pe Valea Prahovei. Ca monument istoric, complexul arhitectonic Peleș este un reper național, dar și european. Ca instituție muzeală, în orașul Sinaia mai funcționează, ca secție a Muzeului Național ,,George Enescu” din București, Casa memorială ,,Vila Luminiș”, locul vacanțelor marelui compozitor George Enescu. Un alt monument istoric de maximă importanță este Mănăstirea Sinaia, care adăpostește și un mic, dar foarte valoros, muzeu de artă veche românească. Un rol cultural activ în viața orașului îl are și Centrul Cultural ,,Carmen Sylva”, aflat în subordinea Primăriei Sinaia, care găzduiește Biblioteca orășenească Sinaia și unde se desfășoară numeroase conferințe și acțiuni culturale. În luna decembrie 2015, a fost inaugurat Muzeul Orașului Sinaia, instituție muzeală aflată în subordinea Centrului Internațional de Conferințe „Cazino Sinaia” și care are un rol deosebit în recuperarea și valorificarea memoriei istorice și culturale a stațiunii. Pe Valea Prahovei, publicul larg are acces la Casa Memorială ,,Cezar Petrescu” din Bușteni, la Muzeul Cinegetic al Carpaților de la Posada, dar și la Palatul Cantacuzino din Bușteni, aflat în proprietate privată și deschis spre vizitare. Fără a minimaliza importanța celorlalte instituții muzeale din zonă, trebuie remarcată unicitatea, amploarea și valoarea excepțională a patrimoniului cultural gestionat de Muzeul Național Peleș, din punct de vedere artistic, istoric și arhitectonic, aceste atribute conducând la un mare aflux de vizitatori, care îi și conferă, anual, calitatea de cel mai vizitat muzeu din România. -

To je trebalo reći da ne ostane ništa sporno: oni ne slijede Račića ni Becića, još manje Hermana; oni su fascinirani Kraljevićem i, da budemo precizni, onim dijelom Kraljevićeva opusa – naročito crtačkog i grafičkog – iz kojega se otvara put prema ekspresionizmu. Neke determinirane i mnogo slučajnih okolnosti pospješuju homogenizaciju te falange mladih i borbenih ljudi: svi su rođeni u razmaku od tri godine – Vilko Gecan 1894, Vladimir Varlaj 1895, Milivoj Uzelac i Marijan Trepše 1897. Varlaj polazi 1911/1913. privatnu slikarsku školu Tomislava Krizmana, a Gecan i Uzelac mu se pridružuju ujesen 1912. Godine 1913. Varlaj i Uzelac zajedno prelaze na Privremenu školu za umjetnost i umjetni obrt (buduća Akademija), a Gecan položi prijamni ispit na Akademie der Bildender Kunste u Münchenu. Već sljedeće 1914, zbog objave rata i mobilizacije, on mora prekinuti školovanje, a Varlaja i Uzelca – opet zajedno! – izbacuju iz Privremene. -
