Moreover, a substan- tial number of contemporary scholarly works have erased the thin line between material evidence and its interpretation. As a consequence, the architectural remains of Polish Romanesque edifices are often considered the basis for wider comparative research. Meanwhile, fragmentarily preserved structures of Romanesque buildings have allowed scholars to conduct research on their origins and models, but they have rarely provided enough information for spatial recon- structions of them. This means that one might investigate the process of transposing patterns from the Holy Roman Empire to Poland instead of the influence of Polish masons’ lodges on each other. Therefore, this paper has two aims. The first is to look at how imperial pat- terns affected the main stone structures (cathedrals and collegiate 1 Originally, my paper entitled ‘In the Shadow of Salian and Hohenstaufen Cathedrals: The Artistic Influence of the Holy Roman Empire on Polish Romanesque Architecture in the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries’ was given at the ‘Borrowing Images of Empire’ seminar during the Medieval Congress in Leeds in July 2014.

  • SWISS JASS Rules
    SWISS JASS Rules Introduction to the basics Many of the popular play card games in Switzerland, especially in the German speaking cantons, belong to the JASS group, and are played with characteristic Swiss cards, which are known as JASS KARTEN (JASS CARDS). JASS has become so popular in Switzerland that even games which got nothing to do with the JASS group, are sometimes described as kinds of JASS, and the verb “jassen” has come to mean “playing any card game with the Swiss play cards”. Swiss JASS games have a number of basic features in common that will be described on this page to define and clarify their application. These features are: - The rank and values of the cards - The trick-taking rules. The rank and values of the cards A standard JASS pack has 36 cards, containing 4 different “suits” (Schellen, Schilten, Eicheln, Rosen) of 9 cards each. In the non-German speaking cantons, a French suited pack - Coeur (Hearts),Carreau (Diamonds),Pique (Clubs) and Trèfle (Spades ) is used instead of the Swiss suited one, being the cards in each suit : As (Ace), Roi (King), Dame (Queen) , Valet (Jack), Dix (Ten), Neuf (Nine), Huit (Eight), Sept (Seven), and Six (Six). Hearts and diamonds are the red-colored suits, whereas the clubs and spades are black. JASS games are point-trick games. In the simplest version of the game, played without “trumpf”, the rank of the cards in each suit, from highest to lowest, and their values in card points, are as follows: Deutsch (German) English Français (French) Points Ass Ace As 11 König King Roi 4 Ober/Dame Queen Dame 3 Under/Bube Jack Valet 2 Banner/ Zehner Ten Dix 10 Neuner Nine Neuf 0 Achter Eight Huit 0 Siebener Seven Sept 0 Sechser Six Six 0 In addition, whoever wins the last “trick”, gets an extra 5 card points.

  • PLAYING CARDS in LUCCA Franco Pratesi − 5 Ottobre 1995
    PLAYING CARDS IN LUCCA Franco Pratesi − 5 ottobre 1995 Introduction At the present time, Lucca is one of the ten provinces into which the Italian region of Tuscany is divided (the last one, Prato, having been acknowledged only a couple of years ago). Viewed from today, one may find it surprising that the production and the use of cards in Lucca were so relevant as to deserve a treatment of their own, because this is to be expected for cards in an independent state as it was Tuscany or in its chief town, Florence. There are, however, a number of reasons which induced me to carry out research on the history of cards in Lucca. Historically, it must be realised that Lucca had, indeed, been an independent state for centuries, either as a republic or as a duchy, although not quite among the greatest in Europe. It was the last town of Tuscany to enter the Grand Duchy, in 1847, a few years before the formation of the Italian Kingdom. There are technical reasons too; in particular, several tarot packs from Lucca, preserved from old times, have the number of cards in the pack and some figures which are surprising. Apart from the keen interest in Lucca cards, which has recently arisen in the prolific environment of English collectors, I could find no specific study on them, except for a short communication, which will be mentioned, and used, in the following text. (1) A chronological order will be followed below, even if matters gathered are in themselves rather scattered − several original documents, a couple of cards, some laws, a book, and so on.
