No apology is needed, I hope, for issuing in this form the substance of the series of articles which I contributed to the Bible Educator. Some of the statements which I brought forward in that work have received further confirmation by wider reading; but some others I have ventured to qualify or alter. Much new matter will be found here which I trust may be of interest to the general reader, if not of use to the professional. I fully anticipate a criticism to the effect that such a subject as the development of musical instruments should rather have been allowed to stand alone than have been associated with Bible music.

  • The Ceu Summer University Announces the Course
    The CEU Summer University announces the course LUMINOSUS LIMES GEOGRAPHICAL, ETHNIC, SOCIAL AND CULTURAL FRONTIERS IN LATE ANTIQUITY JULY 7 – JULY 12, 2014 BUDAPEST, HUNGARY COURSE DIRECTORS Marianne Sághy, Central European University, Hungary Noel Lenski, University of Colorado, USA Rita Lizzi Testa, University of Perugia, Italy FACULTY Zsolt Visy, University of Pecs, Hungary Ádám Szabó, Hungarian National Museum, Hungary Levente Nagy, University of Pecs, Hungary Anna Tóth, Károli Gáspár University, Hungary Claudia-Maria Behling, University of Vienna, Austria Paula Zsidi, Aquincum Museum, Hungary Sylvia Palágyi, Nemesvámos-Baláca Roman Villa Complex, Hungary BRIEF COURSE DESCRIPTION This course explores the dynamic transformation of classical frontiers between the second and the sixth century from a multidisciplinary perspective: archaeology, social and cultural history, art, theology, and literature. Frontiers have become increasingly significant in the study of Late Antiquity, the fastest growing historical discipline, as scholars recognized the fundamental importance of shifting barriers in the process of transformation that led from the classical to the post-classical world. Frontiers once firmly separating empires, ethnic groups, religions, friends and even the sexes have been intensely crossed in late antiquity – a phenomenon comparable only to the recent transition from modernity to post-modernity (a comparison that we intend to exploit in our methodology). People living in the Roman world between the second and the sixth century tore down many walls demarcating cultures, religions, ethnicities. Offering a groundbreaking approach to the field of border studies including social, gender, ethnic and religious categories with the participation of outstanding scholars in the field, this course will provide students with a solid knowledge of up-to-date international scholarship on frontiers: a strong theoretical background as well as hands-on acquaintance with physical borders and material artifacts excavated along the limes.

Analysis of the concept. 1/100 Summary The next final career project, consists not only to describe directly the building of four new buildings and the refurbishment of one in the Liget of Budapest (the most important park of the Hungarian capital city) destined to museums, but to study and estimate the construction costs, the planning process and the duration of the construction works as well as the benefits and profit that the 5 new buildings in the Liget Park are going to offer Budapest. It also develops the risks and possible solutions for them that can occur in big projects with high budgets. El siguiente trabajo de final de grado en Arquitectura Técnica, consiste en no solo la descripción de cuatro edificios nuevos y la rehabilitación de uno ya existente en el Liget de Budapest (el parque más importante de la capital Húngara), destinados a ser museos una vez construidos, pero también el estudio de los costes de las construcciones, el proceso de planificación y la duración de los trabajos de construcción, igual que los beneficios y el provecho que estos puedan ofrecer a Budapest. También se desarrollan los riesgos y las posibles soluciones para ellos que pueden ocurrir en un proyecto de semejante envergadura y presupuesto.
