KORSÓS Dorottya Angyal and Dr. Zoltán Korsós, Department of Zoology, Hungarian Natural History Museum, H-1088 Budapest, Baross u. 13., E-mails: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. Twelve caves of Western Mecsek, Southwest Hungary were examined between September 2010 and April 2013 from the millipede (Diplopoda) faunistical point of view. Ten species were found in eight caves, which consisted eutroglophile and troglobiont elements as well. The cave with the most diverse fauna was the Törökpince Sinkhole, while the two previously also investigated caves, the Abaligeti Cave and the Mánfai-kőlyuk Cave provided less species, which could be related to their advanced touristic and industrial utilization.

  • Three Essays on Literacy Development, Marital Instability, and Births Outside Marriage
    DOCTORAL PROGRAM IN ECONOMICS OF THE TUSCAN UNIVERSITIES jointly held by the Universities of Firenze, Pisa and Siena (XXXI CYCLE) Three Essays on Literacy Development, Marital Instability, and Births Outside Marriage: Empirical Evidence from the Late Nineteenth- and Early Twentieth-Century Greece Scientific-Disciplinary Sector: SECS-P/12 Ph.D Candidate Tryfonas Lemontzoglou Supervisor Prof. John Milios Academic Year: 2018-2019 Three Essays on Literacy Development, Marital Instability, and Births Outside Marriage: Empirical Evidence from the Late Nineteenth- and Early Twentieth-Century Greece. by Tryfonas Lemontzoglou Submitted to the Department of Political Economy and Statistics on the 31st of January, 2019, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Economics. Summary According to Marx, social changes are not always characterized only by new material productive forces, but also by new relations of production, as well as new forms of con- sciousness, religion, philosophy, ethics, etc. In that context, the society’s transitional pas- sage from agrarian to modern industrial modes of production brought into the political arena new social classes and antagonisms, completely changing all pre-existing relation- ships, norms and values in almost every aspect of social life. One the one hand, the newly-rising capitalist class invariably demanded the implementation of radical agrarian reforms as a prerequisite for transforming traditional agriculture into a modern farming system that would be better able to adjust to new market economy’s circumstances. On the other hand, industrial revolution significantly redefined the traditional view of gender roles within the household, allowing women to enter the paid labour market, diminishing sex-stereotyping, and reinforcing women’s autonomy and independence.

Chapter Four The Stone-Built Palaiomaniatika of the Mani Peninsula, Greece Rebecca M. Seifried The Mani peninsula, the southernmost projection of the Peloponnese in Greece, is the location of over 170 settlements with preserved stone-built architecture from the premodern era (Figure 1). These remarkable places are known locally as palaiomaniatika (old Maniat settlements) or palaio- chores (old villages). The settlements are small, comprising between 10 and 50 houses, and they were built and occupied by local residents of the Mani peninsula. The vernacular architecture of the houses is relatively ho- mogenous, constituting the typical one- or two-story rectangular layout (i.e. the “longhouse”) that is common throughout rural landscapes in the Peloponnese (Sigalos 2004a, 2004b:66; Stedman 1996:185–186). Roughly half of the settlements are still inhabited today, with the same houses that were built centuries ago serving as the foundations for modern homes and newer buildings constructed in the spaces between to form the nucleated settlement layout that is typical of modern Greek villages.
