  • Reconstructing the Fragmented Library of Mondsee Abbey
    Reconstructing the Fragmented Library of Mondsee Abbey IVANA DOBCHEVA and VERONIKA WÖBER, Austrian National Library, Austria The Benedictine monastery of Mondsee was an important local centre for book production in Upper Austria already shortly after its foundation in 748. A central factor for the growth of the library were the monastic reform movements, which prompted the production of new liturgical books and consequently the discarding of older ones. When a bookbinding workshop was installed in the 15th century many of these manuscripts, regarded as useless, were cut up and re-used in bindings for new manuscripts, incunabula or archival materials. The aim of our two-year project funded by the Austrian Academy of Science (Go Digital 2.0) is to bring these historical objects in one virtual collection, where their digital facsimile and scholarly descriptions will be freely accessible online to a wide group of scholars from the fields of philology, codicology, history of the book and bookbinding. After a short glance at the history of Mondsee and the fate of the fragments in particular, this article gives an overview of the different procedures established in the project for the detecting and processing of the detached and in-situ fragments. Particular focus lays on the technical challenges encountered by the digitalisation, such as the work with small in-situ fragments partially hidden within the bookbinding. Discussed are also ways to address some disadvantages of digital facsimiles, namely the loss of information about the materiality of physical objects. Key words: Fragments, Manuscripts, Mondsee, Digitisation, Medieval library. CHNT Reference: Ivana Dobcheva and Veronika Wöber.

    Mariusz KULESZA Dorota KACZYŃSKA Department of Political Geography and Regional Studies University of Łódź, POLAND No. 11 MULTINATIONAL CULTURAL HERITAGE OF THE EASTERN PART OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF POLAND AND LITHUANIA Poland is a country with the largest territorial variation in the history of Europe. These changes involved not only the temporary gaining and losing some provinces that were later regained (as was the case for most European countries), but a transition of the country from its natural geographical frames deep into neighbouring ecumenes, while losing its own historical borders in the process. There were also times when the Polish state would disappear from the map of Europe for extended periods. Poland is also a country which for centuries was a place for foreigners where foreigners settled, lead here by various reasons, and left their mark, to a smaller or greater extent in the country's history. They also left numerous places in the Republic that became important not only for Poles. Today, these places belong to both Polish and non-Polish cultures and they become a very significant element of our cultural heritage, a deposit within Polish borders. Up until mid-14th century, Poland was a medium-sized, mostly ethnically homogenous country which faced west both culturally and economically. The eastern border of the country was also the border of Latin Christianity, with the Orthodox Ruthenia and Pagan Lithuania beyond it. In the second half of the 14th century, this situation changed significantly. First, the Red Ruthenia and Podolia were annexed by Poland, and another breakthrough came with the union with Lithuania, which was a Eastern European superpower back then.

Yours faithfully, Mayor of the City of Lublin Krzysztof Żuk The Trail of Famous Lubliners The Trail of Famous Lubliners is a path that leads to the places asso- ciated with life and work of many people who significantly marked their presence in Lublin. They were either natives of the city or those whose fate led them to become associated with Lublin. These people represent different faiths, nations and cultures. For most of them, Lublin was a source of inspiration in their artistic, scientific or patri- otic activities. Their life stories are embedded within the city’s history because it is people who have been shaping the city and its character throughout the centuries.

  • Fun in the Water for All the Family
    The MondSeeLand, home to both the Mondsee and Irrsee lake, has been a popular holiday destination for decades. At just 27 km away from the festival city of Salzburg, international guests to the region can enjoy the many activities it has to offer. Fun in the water for all the family The Mondsee and Irrsee lakes are the warmest lakes in the Salzkammergut region and can reach temperatures of 27 °C in July and August. The Irrsee lake is very natural and ideal for all gentle water sports. The Mondsee lake plays host to numerous water sports activities such as surfing and sailing schools, wakeboarding, kite surfing, water skiing schools, diving schools, boat trips, diving, etc. The Mondsee is 11.8 km long and 2.5 km at its widest point. The Irrsee is 5 km long and 1 km at its widest point. Both lakes have excellent water quality. - 1 - Walking, cycling, running A high quality network of footpaths has been created around the Mondsee and Irrsee over the last few years, covering more than 100 km and leading to the neighbouring lakes – the Attersee, Fuschlsee and Wolfgangsee. A nature map of the MondSeeLand can be purchased from the tourist office (for 1 euro). This shows all the footpaths, cycle paths, jogging paths and specially designated relaxation areas. The cycle paths and footpaths are all well signposted and suitable for family days out. Meetings, congresses and company events The ‘Schloss Mondsee’ castle is home to a modern conference and events centre for hosting a variety of activities. International congresses and conferences of up to 500 participants are increasingly being held here, attracted by the fascination of the MondSeeLand, the good connection with the A1 motorway and the high quality historical atmosphere.
