The Mostassà was the official who controlled the legality of business in the municipal markets of the Crown of Aragon. These sources from the 13th to the 15th centuries contain mainly municipal ordinances, privileges, proclamations, announcements and miscellaneous documents. These manuscripts present detailed information on many aspects of daily life in medieval markets, hitherto not well understood. My research has uncovered 64 previously unknown Mostassà books, which, together with the 33 already known, allow for the first time to reliably identify changes over time, explore to what extent the first book influenced the others, and assess their value as source material for scholars of late medieval everyday life. Bilotta, Maria Alessandra (IEM - FCSH/NOVA University - Lisbon) The Patronage of Legal Manuscripts between Bologna and the French Midi: Patrons from the South of France in Bologna, Manuscripts from Bologna in the South of France In 1990 Enrico Castelnuovo titled one of his essays as follows: “Bologna as Avignon,” highlighting the strong cultural and artistic ties that linked these two cities. In 2011, returning to Castelnuovo’s essay, I presented a paper entitled “Avignon like Bologna? Observations on Avignon’s Role in the Production of Legal Manuscripts,” showing Avignon’s role in producing illustrated legal manuscripts and the influence of Bologna in that production. In this paper, I will consider some cases of patrons coming from southern France who have commissioned manuscripts in Bologna and in its region, and analyze some manuscripts from Bologna that arrived in southern France. The aim is to demonstrate the prolific phenomena of mobility and artistic circulation, describing meetings, ties, and hybridizations that took place in Bologna and its region and the south of France—places where a cross-fertilization took place that made these two territories points of cultural junction in Europe. Boreczky, Anna (Hungarian Academy of Sciences - National Széchényi Library) Classical Protagonists in Medieval Postures: Body Language in Ottonian Images Illustrating Late Antique Texts 7 When copying texts of classical origin, medieval editors (patrons, scribes, artists) often felt the need for, or at least had the opportunity, to make the old contents relevant by commenting upon, interpreting and explaining them. Artists could play an important role in this process, either by altering the illustrations they inherited together with the text, or by inventing new images. In the case of narratives, the body language of the depicted protagonists was amongst the most important expressional forms that had the power of communicating

    MILITARY SEA SERVICES MUSEUM, INC. SEA SERVICES SCUTTLEBUTT December 2017 A message from the President Greetings, The year 2017 was another good year for the Museum. Thanks to our Member's dues, a substantial contribution from our most generous member and contributions from a couple of local patriotic organizations, we will end the year financially sound and feeling confident that we will be able to make any emergency repairs and continue to make improvements to the Museum. As reported in previous Scuttlebutts, most of our major projects have been completed. Our upgraded security system with motion activated cameras inside the Museum and outside the shed John Cecil should be completed this month. The construction of a concrete structure for the mid-1600s British Admiralty Cannon should be completed early next year. I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a New Year that is happy, healthy and prosperous. On this Christmas day let's all say a prayer for our troops that can't be home with families and loved ones. They are doing a great job of preventing the spread of terrorism and protecting our freedoms. Please say a prayer for their safe return home.

    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

    Jnl of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. 57, No. 4, October 2006. f 2006 Cambridge University Press 668 doi:10.1017/S0022046906008839 Printed in the United Kingdom Isabel of Aragon (d. 1336): Model Queen or Model Saint? by IONA MCCLEERY Very little work has been done on Iberian queens and even less on Iberian saints. This study of Isabel of Aragon (c. 1270–1336 ), wife of King Dinis of Portugal (1279–1325), who was venerated as a saint from shortly after her death, aims to explore the relationship between Isabel’s queenship and her sainthood. It engages with recent research, and critiques obvious comparisons between Isabel and her great-aunt St Elizabeth of Thuringia. Isabel may also be compared with numerous other medieval European queens and her main vita displays striking similarities to royal courtesy literature found elsewhere. n 26 March 1612 witnesses watched the opening of a tomb in the Franciscan nunnery of Santa Clara in Coimbra, Portugal. One of O them later described the condition of the body found inside: despite being nearly three hundred years old, the sainted body was whole, the face noble, the hair golden and still attached to the skin, the arm and right hand entire, the nails as if they were of a living person ... and in the features of the face there was great similarity to the effigy that we see on the tomb.1 Medical practitioners in attendance confirmed the body’s lack of corruption; Gonc¸alo Dias, chief surgeon of Coimbra, remarked: ‘I feel for certain that it is beyond natural order for a body to be so many years without decay, which can only be miraculous.’2 Whose was this miraculous body and why did it arouse so much interest? The tomb was that of Isabel of Aragon, wife of King Dinis of Portugal (1279–1325), who had indeed died nearly three hundred years earlier on 4 July 1336, and the tomb-opening was part of a long-drawn-out process that eventually led to her canonisation on 25 May 1625.

Fylkesmannen i Troms og Finnmark viser til nevnte plan med forlenget høringsfrist til den 20.06.19. Stortinget har bestemt at Evenes flystasjon skal ha funksjon som beredskapsbase for noen av Norges nye F-35 jagerfly. Stortinget har også bestemt at de fem nye marine overvåkingsflyene skal stasjoneres på Evenes. Forsvarsbygg er tiltakshaver og har utarbeidet en statlig reguleringsplan. Status som statlig reguleringsplan, innebærer at ingen statsetater kan reise innsigelse, men gi råd og innspill. Samordningsrutinen for regionale statsetater vil derfor ikke gjelde for denne planen. Planen er drøftet i Planforum i både Troms og Nordland, og ved to anledninger også i et felles Planforum mellom fylkene Troms og Nordland; den 14.09.17 og 20.11.18. Planforslaget er presentert på en informativ måte for berørte offentlige instanser og plandokumentene gir et godt grunnlag for å vurdere utbyggingsplanene. Fylkesmannen i Troms og Finnmark vil gi følgende innspill til det videre arbeidet med planen: Miljøhensyn: Naturmangfold, avrenning og eutrofiering Det vesentligste av planområdet ligger i Evenes kommune i Nordland fylke. Fylkesmannen i Nordland har vurdert og utredet hensyn til miljøinteresser og avgitt uttalelse i brev datert den 11.06.19. Uttalelsen om naturmangfold, avrenning og eutrofiering er representativt også for arealene og forholdene i Skånland kommune i Troms fylke. Fylkesmannen i Troms og Finnmark viser til uttalelsen fra Fylkesmannen i Nordland for fagområdene naturmangfold, avrenning og eutrofiering, og kan slutte seg til vurderingene for de nevnte fagområdene.
