The purpose of the article is twofold: to diagnose tourism-related conflicts occurring in Poznań by identifying their intensity and key parties, and to determine the capacity of the key stakeholders in the city’s tourism system to mitigate these disputes. Because of its complex nature, overtourism in cities is a dangerous phenomenon, which is very hard to measure. Like other social conflicts, the intensity and development of overtourism can be measured by analys- ing tourism-related conflicts in the urban space, using tools offered by conflict management theo- ries, especially Christopher Moore’s Circle of Conflict model. Conflict issues identified by the author are associated with the uncontrolled consumption of the city’s overall offering, which is manifested by the behaviour of city inhabitants, visitors from the metropolitan area, and tourists. The article contributes to the literature on overtourism by proposing an alternative method of identifying the scope and intensity of overtourism in the absence of objective measures and data. The author also proposes a method of evaluating key stakeholders’ capacity for conflict manage- ment in Poznań.

Introduction Overtourism is a phenomenon affecting a growing number of top destinations; in the narrow sense, mostly with urban characteristics [Amore, Falk, Adie 2020; Dodds, Butler 2019a; Koens, Postma, Papp 2018; Żemła 2020]. Because of its complex nature, dynamic development and barely controllable effects, overtour- ism poses a dangerous challenge for those involved in destination management. The problem is also recognised in cities with a moderate intensity of tourist traf- fic, which have not yet experienced excessive tourist pressure but are interested in ways of assessing the potential threat or the real scope of overtourism. Poznań, an emerging urban destination in the European tourism market, catering to those in- terested in cultural tourism and to business travellers [Bródka,

P. PUTNAM'S SONS 1913 PRINTED AT THE BALLANTYNE PRESS TAVI STOCK STREET CoVENT GARDEN LONDON THE story of the Borgia family has always been of interest one strangely fascinating ; but a lurid legend grew up about their lives, which culminated in the creation of the fantastic monstrosities of Victor Hugo's play and Donizetti's opera. For three centuries their name was a byword for the vilest but in our there has been infamy ; own day an extraordinary swing of the pendulum, which is hard to account for. Quite a number of para- doxical writers have proclaimed to an astonished and mystified world that Pope Alexander VI was both a wise prince and a gentle priest whose motives and actions have been maliciously mis- noble- represented ; that Cesare Borgia was a minded and enlightened statesman, who, three centuries in advance of his time, endeavoured to form a united Italy by the only means then in Lucrezia anybody's power ; and that Borgia was a paragon of all the virtues.

  • The Evolution of Individualism Through Christianity A
    THE EVOLUTION OF INDIVIDUALISM THROUGH CHRISTIANITY A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Liberal Studies By Maureen Heath, M.P.A. Georgetown University Washington D.C. April 2018 DEDICATION I would like to thank my husband Dr. Jim Heath, who has been a source of constant motivation and support. He encouraged me to pursue the doctorate and has diligently read and edited multiple iterations of this thesis. I would also like to thank all the members of my committee: Dr. Frank Ambrosio, Dr. Bill O’Brien and especially Dr. JoAnn H. Moran Cruz, who has spent many hours mentoring me and guiding me through this process. ii THE EVOLUTION OF INDIVIDUALISM THROUGH CHRISTIANITY Maureen Heath DLS Chair: JoAnn Moran Cruz, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This thesis explores how Christianity and the birth of a Christian worldview affected the evolution of individualism in Western culture as a cultural meme. Applying a biological metaphor, the focus is on how mutations in the cultural genome arose from the advent of Christianity within a Eurocentric context. Utilizing a diachronic examination of selected authors and writings, this thesis explores that cultural evolution and shows the progression to the modern individual. Beginning with Augustine and extending to John Locke, the focus is on writers who are emblematic of a concept that becomes an adaptive trait or cultural meme in the evolutionary process. They include: Augustine exhibiting the inner self, Abelard and Ockham displaying the intentional self, Dante manifesting the responsible self, Pico della Mirandola and the self-made man, Montaigne presenting the subjective self, Luther with the autonomous-self meme, and Locke presenting the natural rights meme.

  • Appendix for “The Feudal Revolution and Europe's Rise: Political
    Appendix for “The Feudal Revolution and Europe’s Rise: Political Divergence of the Christian West and the Muslim World before 1500 CE” August 1, 2012 1 Feudalism and Political Stability To formalize the intuition presented in Section 3.3 using a simple framework, suppose that a perfectly myopic, risk-neutral sovereign imperfectly controls a polity that creates output of size one each period. Denote by γ the amount of land controlled by the military regardless of the actions of the sovereign (this can be interpreted as the percentage of the entire polity controlled by the military). Suppose that there are N perfectly myopic, risk-neutral members of the military (where N is sufficiently large) and that γ is evenly distributed between the members of this class. We consider the parameter value γ exogenously given. A value of γ = 0 corresponds to a perfectly absolutist sovereign (who uses mamluks or mercenaries to staff his military) whereas higher values of γ denote more feudal arrangements. Note that our assumption of perfectly myopic agents allows us to abstract from the potentially important issue of how the sovereign compensates the military (i.e., iqta’ rents versus land grants).1 In addition, we abstract from other important issues in order to focus on the sovereign’s desire to prevent a successful revolt. We do so in order to highlight one mechanism that we believe contributes to the observed increase in ruler duration. The order of play in the game is as follows: after observing γ the sovereign moves first and decides whether to keep the entire amount of output he controls to himself or whether to divide it equally between himself and the military.

  • Chapter Thirty the Ottoman Empire, Judaism, and Eastern Europe to 1648
    Chapter Thirty The Ottoman Empire, Judaism, and Eastern Europe to 1648 In the late fifteenth and the sixteenth centuries, while the Portuguese and Spanish explored the oceans and exploited faraway lands, the eastern Mediterranean was dominated by the Ottomans. Mehmed II had in 1453 taken Constantinople and made it his capital, putting an end to the Byzantine empire. The subsequent Islamizing of Constantinople was abrupt and forceful. Immediately upon taking the city, Mehmed set about to refurbish and enlarge it. The population had evidently declined to fewer than two hundred thousand by the time of the conquest but a century later was approximately half a million, with Muslims constituting a slight majority. Mehmed and his successors offered tax immunity to Muslims, as an incentive for them to resettle in the city. Perhaps two fifths of the population was still Christian in the sixteenth century, and a tenth Jewish (thousands of Jewish families resettled in Constantinople after their expulsion from Spain in 1492). The large and impressive churches of Constantinople were taken over and made into mosques. Most dramatically, Mehmed laid claim to Haghia Sophia, the enormous cathedral that for nine hundred years had been the seat of the patriarch of Constantinople, and ordered its conversion into a mosque. It was reconfigured and rebuilt (it had been in a state of disrepair since an earthquake in 1344), and minarets were erected alongside it. The Orthodox patriarch was eventually placed in the far humbler Church of St. George, in the Phanari or “lighthouse” district of Constantinople. Elsewhere in the city Orthodox Christians were left with relatively small and shabby buildings.1 Expansion of the Ottoman empire: Selim I and Suleiman the Magnificent We have followed - in Chapter 26 - Ottoman military fortunes through the reigns of Mehmed II (1451-81) and Bayezid II (1481-1512).

    BONA SFORZA D’ARGONA Paulina Fujara środa, 5 czerwca 13 THE MOST INPORTANT INFORMATION Bona Sforza was born on 2 February 1494. She died 19 November 1557. She was a member of the powerful Milanese House of Sforza. In 1518, she became the second wife of Sigismund I called the Old, the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania, and became the Queen of Poland and Grand Duchess of Lithuania. Bona was born into the powerful and wealthy Italian Sforza dynasty who ruled Milan since 1447. Although her father belonged to the authority of the Duchy of Milan, he was ousted by his uncle Ludovico Sforza, known to history as "Il Moro". He exercised power on behalf of the young prince, until his death in 1494 at the castle in Pavia. Shortly afterwards, the Princess Isabella, together with her daughters, went to Bari środa, 5 czerwca 13 EARLY YEARS In her youth, Bona obtained a good education. Her teacher was Crisostomo Colonna, a member of the Academy of Pont, who supervised her education along with Antonio Galateo. She received profound education in history, law, administration and theology. She was gifted, economic, and she also had the ability to influence people. She demonstrated this skill in all her activities. środa, 5 czerwca 13 QUEEN OF POLAND Almost from the beginning of her life in Poland, Queen Bona tried to gain a strong political position. She began to form her own position and also benefited from the support of the king. She was also supported by Piotr Kmita Sobieński, Andrew Ladislaus and Piotr Gamrat, taking them to her offices and creating the so-called Triumvirate.

    The new place of Poland and Lithuania in Europe The new place of Poland and Lithuania in Europe Lesson plan (English) Lesson plan (Polish) The new place of Poland and Lithuania in Europe The Act of the Union of Krewo dated August 14, 1385. Source: Akt Unii w Krewie z 14 sierpnia 1385 roku, domena publiczna. Link to the lesson You will learn to define what foreign policy was carried out by the Jagiellonians; to list what threats the rulers of Poland and Lithuania had to face; to explain how it happened that a ruler of Poland once again sat on the throne of Hungary; to describe why the myth of Poland as a bulwark of Christianity was born. Nagranie dostępne na portalu epodreczniki.pl Nagranie abstraktu Entering the 15th century, Poland was a stable state. Its position was strengthened by the unions with Lithuania – the Union of Krewo (1385) and the Union of Horodło (1413). The political alliance of the two countries, despite the separateness of lands and societies, brought not only benefits, but also challenges and problems. The defeat of the common enemy – the State of the Teutonic Order in the Great War (1409– 1411), and in subsequent clashes, ensured relative peace at the northern borders. Nevertheless, relations between the two countries remained tense. A new conflict broke out in 1454, when there were anti‐Teutonic riots and when an act was issued on the incorporation of Prussia and Pomerania into the Crown (the Kingdom of Poland). The war, which lasted 13 years, ended in the victory of the king of Poland and conclusion of the Second Peace of Toruń Treaty (1466), which incorporated Pomerelia, Żuławy, and Warmia into the Polish state.

  • The Significance of the Renaissance in Poland According to Tourists’ Opinions on Tripadvisor Concerning Three Major Renaissance Landmarks
    Studia Periegetica no. 2(30)/2020 DOI: 10.5604/01.3001.0014.3168 AGNIESZKA NIEZGODA*, IZABELA WYSZOWSKA** The significance of the Renaissance in Poland according to tourists’ opinions on TripAdvisor concerning three major Renaissance landmarks Abstract. The purpose of the study was to analyze the role of the Renaissance in Poland and the way it is reflected in tourists’ reviews. The authors focused in particular on tourists’ aware- ness concerning the importance of three major Renaissance landmarks located in three Polish cities, namely the Wawel Royal Castle in Cracow, the Town Hall in Poznań and the Old Town in Zamość. Methods used in the empirical part include an analysis of reviews posted on the Trip- Advisor website by Polish tourists who have visited these sites, taking into account the histori- cal conditions underlying the development of the Renaissance in Poland and its characteristic features. The authors used thedesk research method. The pilot study described in the article is an introduction to further, in-depth qualitative research. The results indicate that only 10% of all tourists’ reviews referred to the Renaissance character of the sites. The reviews indicate that most tourists lack a solid knowledge of history and architecture, and were most likely not inspired to visit the analyzed sites because of their links to the Renaissance. No reviews were found demon- strating any personal background in history or suggesting that the Renaissance was the reason for visiting these particular sites. So far, references to the Renaissance in tourists’ reviews of Polish landmarks have not been discussed in the literature. The article can, therefore, be regarded as a first contribution to the study of this issue.
