Az utazás célja turizmusban érdekelt orosz szakembereknek bemutatni térségünket. Az utazás elõtt egyeztettünk, így polgármester társam Tihany, mint település mellett az Apátságot mutatta be, a levendulát, annak elkészítését, mi pedig a borkultúrát, gasztronómiát és a fürdõ kultúrát helyeztük elõtérbe.

What You Will Learn in This Course
What you will learn in this course In this course you will learn how to use the various substances such as essential oils, minerals and macerated oils. You will learn how to offer them to the animals and how to read their responses. At a theoretical level you will learn about the world of plants and how they have used essential oils for millennia. Then you will see how animals have evolved to make use of these substances which the plants secrete for their own purposes. You will learn the basic science of essential oils and the compounds they contain. The next major component is pharmacology, learning how the constituents of plants work in the body to achieve the desired effects. Of course our animals are not concerned with pharmacology. They will simply select what they need, but it is helpful for us to understand how these oils interact with the various organs. Finally you will learn a little about the processes of producing the various substances that we normally use. It is important to understand that the list of oils and other substances explored in this course is not exhaustive or exclusive. There are many therapeutic plants on this planet which may vary from one geographical region to another, but this is a starting point. Later, once you have assimilated the nucleus of the work, you may find that you wish to experiment further including other plants in your kit. How the Course Works This is essentially a home study course so you will work through the various modules at your own pace. -

Ethnography, Ethnobiology and Natural History: Narratives On
Prado et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2020) 16:9 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13002-020-0359-3 RESEARCH Open Access Ethnography, ethnobiology and natural history: narratives on hunting and ecology of mammals among quilombolas from Southeast Brazil Helbert Medeiros Prado1*, Raquel Costa da Silva2, Marcelo Nivert Schlindwein1 and Rui Sérgio Sereni Murrieta3* Abstract Background: As a leading practice of Homo sapiens’ environmental experience for hundreds of millennia, hunting continues to evoke key research inquiries in the fields of archaeology, human ecology, and conservation biology. Broadly speaking, hunting has been mainly a subject of qualitative-symbolic and quantitative-materialistic schemata of analyze, among anthropologists and biologists, respectively. However, the phenomenological dimension of the hunting experience, in the course of individuals` everyday life, received little academic attention until this century. This study analyzes the daily praxis of hunting among quilombolas (descendants from runaway African slaves) in Southeast Brazil, making use of an ethnographic approach of phenomenological orientation, which dialogue with central ethnobiological issues. The authors also report the local ecological knowledge about mammals hunted in the area, and its relationship to the scientific literature on this subject. Methods: Between 2016 and 2019, the authors made use of participant observation and informal interviews among eight key local participants, in three quilombola communities in the Ribeira Valley (São Paulo, Brazil). Fragments of authors’ field notes and parts of interviewers’ speeches make up the core results obtained. Results: Articulating local knowledge to scientific literature, this study yielded a hybrid and comprehensive narrative about natural history of the mammals in the area. The authors also accessed elementary aspects of research participants’ experience in hunting, such as strategies, tactics, motivations, and feelings.
