Promotion of bioclimatic architecture and solar energy. Solar Energy Education Through Art. History of Passive Solar in Cyprus. Passive Solar Design Considerations for the Mediterranean. Sustainable Architecture. Quality of life through sustainable design. Social Sustainability and Sustainable Development Technical Improvement of Existing Housing Envelopes in Cyprus A more thorough research is developed looking at: - Identification of the main problem in Cyprus - What is the actual standard for existing buildings (Needs in Cyprus). - Requirements in Cyprus that enforce a reaction to refurbish envelopes. - Legislative, natural (climatic boundary conditions) and other influencing factors that lead to the standard solution. Technical performances: stability, capacity, (earthquake), fire protection, noise insulation, weather protection, moisture protection, Functional / social performance: flexibility, comfort (thermal, acoustical, visual), health (air quality, mould & fungus growth) Economical performance: building costs, Running costs (heat losses, cooling, cleaning, inspection, maintenance, etc.) Environmental performance: use of resources (non renewable, renewable), energy consumption (non renewable, renewable) - production / assembly - heating / cooling Extensive Research on Passive Solar Architecture in Cyprus The aim of this research is to study the application of passive solar bodies and their adaptation on Cypriot houses focusing on heating and cooling passive solar systems in Cyprus, and making suggestions for their future applications. This study will assist future researches in choosing the most suitable combination from locally available construction materials so that more energy efficient buildings can be built, always taking into consideration the cost effectiveness of each passive solar system. Designing for Diversity Sustainability’s accountability to survival into the future is closely interlinked to diversity of species and functions in both animate and inanimate conditions. In anthropocentric 2 terms, diversity encompasses the presence and voice of men and women of all ages, ethnic backgrounds and social strata. Thus through diversity, sustainability can be attained only within a system where the voices of all participants carry equal weight. The scope of the research is to concentrate in a world of architecture where man and nature are addressed and sustained in a balanced design. The unit studio creates an interdisciplinary platform on which issues of environmental, social and economic sustainability are constantly explored. The unit prompts participants to develop critical positions regarding the principles of environmental and social sustainability and to extend and evolve these positions through the architectural design process.

  • News Versus Opinion: the State, the Press, and the Northern Enlightenment
    chapter �3 News versus Opinion: The State, the Press, and the Northern Enlightenment Ellen Krefting The absolutist kingdom of Denmark-Norway may have been situated on the geographical as well as the cultural outskirts of eighteenth-century Europe, but this twin kingdom nonetheless took part in the transformation and ex- pansion of news transmission at the beginning of the Enlightenment period. Handwritten newsletters, printed broadsheets, pamphlets and ballads began circulating early in the seventeenth century. Networks of postal routes were connected directly and regularly to several European networks through Ham- burg, a centre for the dissemination of news about Europe and beyond. These networks made possible the first newspapers regularly printed in Copenha- gen, which were published from the 1660s in German and Danish.1 The popular craze for news became a literary topic early in the eighteenth century, just as in other, more central parts of Europe. The market for news, however, and for printed material in general, developed and expanded despite the heavy con- trols imposed by the Lutheran, absolutist state through the privilege system and strict censorship laws and procedures. Absolutism was introduced in 1660, with a Royal Law (Kongeloven) vest- ing all legislative, executive, judicial and fiscal power in the sovereign king. The market for print was placed under even stricter control in order to pro- tect absolutist power and religious uniformity. Scholars have traditionally seen absolutism as the main reason for the centralised and slow development of the printed news press, especially in the Norwegian part of the kingdom dur- ing most of the eighteenth century.
