Folklór Baltských Zemí Jako Zdroj Pro Studium Předkřesťanských Tradic Starých Baltů
4 JAK ROzuměT „POHANSKÝM RELIKTům“: FolKLÓR BALTSKÝCH ZEMÍ JAKO ZDROJ PRO STUDIUM PředKřesťANSKÝCH TRADIC STARÝCH BALTů Anglický termín folklore, přeložitelný do češtiny jako „lidová tradice“ či „lidové vě- dění“, začal být evropskými vzdělanci užíván před polovinou 19. století.1 V kon- textu historie moderní vědy se jedná o zásadní epochu, kdy vznikala v sekulární podobě většina současných humanitních oborů, včetně organizovaného studia folklóru. Evropská města prodělávala touto dobou druhou vlnu „industriální revoluce“, spojenou s modernizací, masovými imigracemi venkovské populace a pozvolnou „detradicionalizací“ v širších vrstvách společnosti. Modernizační procesy přitom neovlivňovaly pouze kulturní prostředí měst, ale prosakovaly v různých podobách i na venkov. Důsledkem toho zde začínají mizet dlouhodobě konzervované kulturní elementy, nezřídka poměrně „archaického“ stáří. Zároveň s těmito procesy však již druhá generace romantických intelektuálů mezi Atlan- tikem a Volhou usilovně studuje kulturní dějiny dílčích (obvykle svých vlastních) národů, zpravidla se zvláštním zřetelem k jejich historické genezi a identickým specifikům.2 Tradice udržované venkovskými obyvateli, do 18. století městskou inteligencí spíše ignorované či opovrhované, získávají ještě před rokem 1800 ros- toucí pozornost a následně i roli „stavebního materiálu“ při procesu „budování“ národních identit.3 1 Za původce anglického termínu folklore, který vytlačil starší latinismus popular antiquities, bývá obvykle považován spisovatel a amatérský historik William John Thoms (1803–1885). Významnou inspiraci pro jeho zájem o lidové kultury představovala díla Jacoba Grimma (1785–1863) a Wilhelma Grimma (1786–1859), průkopníků německé (a v podstatě i evropské) folkloristiky. 2 Spojitost nacionalismu a folkloristiky během 18.–20. století analyzuje např. Doorman, Martin, Romantický řád, Praha: Prostor 2008, 203–224. 3 K folkloristice a její genezi viz např. -

Circular Economy and Bioeconomy Interaction Development As Future for Rural Regions. Case Study of Aizkraukle Region in Latvia
Environmental and Climate Technologies 2019, vol. 23, no. 3, pp. 129–146 doi: 10.2478/rtuect-2019-0084 https://content.sciendo.com Circular Economy and Bioeconomy Interaction Development as Future for Rural Regions. Case Study of Aizkraukle Region in Latvia Indra MUIZNIECE1*, Lauma ZIHARE2, Jelena PUBULE3, Dagnija BLUMBERGA4 1–4Institute of Energy Systems and Environment, Riga Technical University, Azenes iela 12/1, Riga, LV-1048, Latvia Abstract – In order to enforce the concepts of bioeconomy and the circular economy, the use of a bottom-up approach at the national level has been proposed: to start at the level of a small region, encourage its development, considering its specific capacities and resources, rather than applying generalized assumptions at a national or international level. Therefore, this study has been carried out with an aim to develop a methodology for the assessment of small rural areas in the context of the circular economy and bioeconomy, in order to advance the development of these regions in an effective way, using the existing bioresources comprehensively. The methodology is based on the identification of existing and potential bioeconomy flows (land and its use, bioresources, human resources, employment and business), the identification of the strengths of their interaction and compare these with the situation at the regional and national levels in order to identify the specific region's current situation in the bioeconomy and identify more forward-looking directions for development. Several methods are integrated and interlinked in the methodology – indicator analysis, correlation and regression analysis, and heat map tables. The methodology is approbated on one case study – Aizkraukle region – a small rural region in Latvia. -

Gradients of Latvian Magnetic Anomalies
Scientific Journal of Riga Technical University Sustainable Spatial Development 2011 __________________________________________________________________________________________________ Volume 2 Gradients of Latvian Magnetic Anomalies Vladimir Vertennikov, Riga Technical University Abstract. This article discusses one of the most important and vertical gradients. It is possible to determine those geophysical factors, which produces an impact on the gradients by calculations or measurements using special demographic processes and reflects the nature of variability in instruments – magnetic gradiometers. Instrumented gradient the anomalous magnetic field intensity in space. The article characterises the horizontal magnetic gradients, which vary measurements are predominantly utilised in local areas during within the wide range: from 10 to 2400 nT/km. It distinguishes prospecting and exploration for minerals. In regional magnetic scale and magnetic gradient areas. The article gives an investigations, to which concrete operations associated with ecodemographic evaluation of the territory of Latvia by the investigating the impact of geophysical factors on gradience of the anomalous magnetic field. demographic processes belong, horizontal gradients are the main factor; they are determined by calculations. Keywords: horizontal magnetic gradient, magnetic scale, magnetic gradient area, ecodemographic evaluation of territory by magnetic gradience. CHARACTERISATION OF HORIZONTAL MAGNETIC GRADIENTS The magnetic field is represented in the Latvian territory by a complex set of anomalies with different signs, intensity, size The gradient is an important parameter of anomalous and morphology. The transitions from one anomaly to another magnetic field. The discussion deals with the spatial intensity are expressed through changes in the field intensity and are variations. The thing is that the intensity of the anomalous either gradual, occurring step-by-step, or abrupt. -

Defining Boundaries Between Two Immigrant Waves from Latvia
Defining Boundaries Between Two Immigrant Waves From Latvia: A Study of Latvian Supplementary Schools in the U.S. A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA Ilze Garoza IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS Professor Peter Demerath, Adviser Professor Gerald Fry, Co-adviser August, 2011 © Ilze Garoza 2011 Acknowledgements I would like to express my deep gratitude to my adviser Dr. Peter Demerath and co-adviser Dr. Gerald Fry for all the guidance and support they provided me throughout the thesis writing. I also want to extend my special thanks to professor Andris Straumanis, University of Wisconsin – River Falls, who generously shared his expertise, time, and advice in launching my research project, reaching out to the community, as well as his invaluable and critical feedback on my findings about Latvians in the United States. This study would not have come about if not for the extraordinary responsiveness of the Latvian community. There are no words to thank enough the Latvian supplementary school principals who provided me access to their schools; to teachers and parents, as well as the Latvian community leaders, who shared their stories, insights, and experiences. My special thanks goes to the Latvian community in Minnesota, which has been my “home” for the last three years and whose support and financial assistance allowed me to participate in various Latvian events around the United States. This study would not have come about also without the generous support of the Immigration History Research Center (IHRC) staff and directors Dr. -
The Degeneration of Ancient Bird and Snake Goddesses Into Historic Age Witches and Monsters
The Degeneration of Ancient Bird and Snake Goddesses Miriam Robbins Dexter Special issue 2011 Volume 7 The Monstrous Goddess: The Degeneration of Ancient Bird and Snake Goddesses into Historic Age Witches and Monsters Miriam Robbins Dexter An earlier form of this paper was published as 1) to demonstrate the broad geographic basis of “The Frightful Goddess: Birds, Snakes and this iconography and myth, 2) to determine the Witches,”1 a paper I wrote for a Gedenkschrift meaning of the bird and the snake, and 3) to which I co-edited in memory of Marija demonstrate that these female figures inherited Gimbutas. Several years later, in June of 2005, the mantle of the Neolithic and Bronze Age I gave a lecture on this topic to Ivan Marazov’s European bird and snake goddess. We discuss class at the New Bulgarian University in who this goddess was, what was her importance, Sophia. At Ivan’s request, I updated the paper. and how she can have meaning for us. Further, Now, in 2011, there is a lovely synchrony: I we attempt to establish the existence of and have been asked to produce a paper for a meaning of the unity of the goddess, for she was Festschrift in honor of Ivan’s seventieth a unity as well as a multiplicity. That is, birthday, and, as well, a paper for an issue of although she was multifunctional, yet she was the Institute of Archaeomythology Journal in also an integral whole. In this wholeness, she honor of what would have been Marija manifested life and death, as well as rebirth, and Gimbutas’ ninetieth birthday.
