Slovenia's location at the junction of differ- ent natural and geographical units and various political formations influenced its traffic and border situation. As a result, for many centuries the territory of Slovenia appeared inaccurately on maps and as part of for- eign national units. With the development of cartographical skills and the recognition of cartography in our area in the 16th century and especially from the 17th century on, Slovene territory was depicted equal- ly on maps of the times through the efforts of Slovene and foreign individuals. At first, maps of individual Slovene regions dominated, but from the middle of the 19th century there are more frequent depictions of the entire Slovene territory. Cartographical work thus also became a means of expressing national demands and hopes. KEY WORDS: geography, historical geography, maps, Slovenia The article was submitted for publication on October 5, 2006. ADDRESS: Primo` Ga{peri~, B.

Situating Dürer’s interest in mathematics within the scholarly milieu of Renaissance Nuremberg, the article addresses the shifts in style and content that Dürer proscribes and offers new perspectives on the artist’s relation to his own late work. The article concludes by displaying several drawings bound into the edition by Dürer that illustrate variations on perspectival apparatuses. These lesser known drawings illuminate the evolution of Dürer’s conceptualization of the dynamics between artist and subject, as well as the tools used to facilitate this interaction.

Baron Sigismund von Herberstein The Herberstein nobility originates from Herberstein castle beside the Bistrica (Feistritz) River near to Gleisdorf in present day Styria, Austria, and has been well documented since the 13th century. The Herberstein’s were in the service of the Habsburg dynasty almost from the beginning, which allowed them to spread their property into other Habsburg hereditary lands. They were present in today’s Slovenian territory for centuries and have significantly co-shaped Slovenian history.
