  • Improvement of Spain's Regional Railway System Based Off of Germany's Railway Model
    Improvement of Spain’s regional railway system based off of Germany’s railway model: Making R3 an efficient train line. Gil Salvans Torras Bachelor thesis Thesis advisor: María del Carmen Moreno Course 2018-2019 Abstract This research aims to compare the Spanish and German regional railway mobility systems, by analyzing infrastructures which compose each network, services operating them and legal framework that comprises them. To make it the most accurate and realistic, two study cases are analyzed in depth: R3 of Rodalies Renfe and RB22 of DB Regio Mitte. All of this composes the input to create an Improvement Project which will put forward and eliminate the innefficiecies of the Rodalies Renfe services based on the DB Regio experience. Key words: railway, regional, Deutsche Bahn, Renfe, system, transportation, Rodalies, R3, RB22. Resumen Esta investigación presenta una analogía entre los sistemas ferroviarios regionales de España y Alemania, donde se analizan las dos redes ferroviarias y sus infraestructuras correspondientes, los servicios que las operan y sus respectivos marcos legales presentes. Para darle más precisión y aplicabilidad práctica, se analizan profundamente dos casos de estudio: la línea R3 de Rodalies Renfe y la RB22 de DB Regio Mitte. Todo esto conforma la base para crear un proyecto de mejora que expondrá y eliminará las ineficiencias de los servicios de Rodalies basado en la experiencia alemana de DB Regio.

There, the editors of this issue, Ben Salisbury (University of Birmingham) and Ben White (University of Nottingham), met for the first time Chris Rouse (University of Birmingham) and Curtis Lisle (University of Birmingham). Our research foci held several themes in common, but most striking was the prevalence of an appreciation for the study of space by whatever means. Over the weeks and months that followed this initial meeting, in which time we were joined by Liam McLeod (University of Birmingham) and Tom Quigley (University of Manchester), we went about putting into writing some of the central themes of spatial studies in which we were interested.

  • Origin, Provenance and Mobility of the Jewish Community (1231-1277)
    THE SETTLEMENT OF JEWS IN VIC: ORIGIN, PROVENANCE AND MOBILITY OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITY (1231-1277) IRENE LLOP I JORDANA UNIVERSITAT DE VIC- UNIVERSITAT CENTRAL DE CATALUNYA SPAIN Date of receipt: 19th of April, 2016 Date of acceptance: 18th of April, 2017 ABSTRACT This article focuses on the study of the establishment of Jewish families in Vic in the early 13th century. Documents from the Libri Judeorum, along with other notarial records, shine light on the origin and consolidation of the Jewish community of Vic and the development of the Jewish quarter or call.1 KEY WORDS Catalan Judaism, Vic, Notarial Records, 13th Century, Libri Iudeorum.

Introduction During the 13th and 14th centuries, a Jewish community settled in the city of Vic. Although it was never a large community, they had a major impact in the region and have left us an important documentary and cultural legacy. Thanks to the documents preserved in the Arxiu i Biblioteca Episcopal de Vic (ABEV), we can follow the evolution of this group, a key part of the history of Vic for nearly two hundred years. Moreover, the 13th century saw the development of Catalan Notaries, and the ABEV preserved notarial records from that early period. The generic name of Manual refers to common notarial copies of the originals that were given to the interested parties, which contain a basic outline of the legal document.

PALAU DE LA MÚSICA CATALANA < BARCELONA. CASA BATLLÓ Discovering Modernisme in Catalonia The term Modernisme is used in Catalonia to refer to the large-scale artistic movement which developed at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th. Its aim was to update traditional fgurative repertories, architectural typologies and decorative elements to bring them into line with new techniques, new industrial materials and contemporary artistic feeling. During its heyday, around the turn of the 20th century, it took the form of a decorative fashion based on curved, asymmetrical lines and colourful foral ornamentation. These features were especially found in architecture, but also in the decorative and applied arts: stained glass, ceramics, iron and other metals, and furniture, as well as in other felds of design such as jewellery, posters, and printing.
