In addition to conventional petrological descriptions of rocks, microscopic determinations of intrusive and extrusive magmatites were also cited.

  • Framing 'Turks': Representations of Ottomans and Moors in Continental European Literature 1453-1683
    16 2019 FRAMING ‘TURKS’: Representations of Ottomans and Moors in Continental European Literature 1453-1683 ed. Peter Madsen Framing ‘Turks’: Representations of Ottomans and Moors in Continental European Litera- ture 1453-1683, ed. Peter Madsen Nordic Journal of Renaissance Studies 16 • 2019 General Editor of NJRS: Camilla Horster (NJRS was formerly known as Renæssanceforum: Journal of Renaissance Studies) ISSN 2597-0143. URL: www.njrs.dk/njrs_16_2019.htm FRAMING ‘TURKS’ NJRS 16 • 2019 • www.njrs.dk Preface The focus of this issue of Nordic Journal of Renaissance Studies is on Conti- nental Europe, i.e., areas bordering or situated near the Ottoman Empire or otherwise involved in close encounters. It has thus been important to include often neglected, yet most important nations like The Polish-Lithuanian Com- monwealth and Hungary (following the lead of the excellent volume edited by Bodo Guthmüller and Wilhelm Kühlmann: Europa und die Türken in der Renaissance, Tübingen 2000). It has also been important to consider literature beyond well-known classics, thus including works that attracted more atten- tion in their own times than they do today. Finally, it should be underscored how the literary (and intellectual) field beyond the vernaculars included pub- lications in Latin. The introduction is an attempt to situate the subject matter of the individual contributions within a broader historical, intellectual and literary field, thus including further documentation and additional literary examples. ‘Turks’ was the current denomination of contemporary Muslims, whether North African or Spanish ‘Moors’, or inhabitants of the Ottoman Empire or its spheres of various sorts of influence. It should be stressed, though, that although the Ottomans in terms of power and political establishment were Turkish, the inhabitants of the Empire were multi-ethnic and multi-religious.

Leszek Kukulski, red. , wybór , Warszawa 1962. John III Sobieski at Vienna John III Sobieski’s entry to Vienna Source: Wjazd Jana III Sobieskiego do Wiednia, domena publiczna. Link to the lesson You will learn where from and why did Ottoman Turks come to Europe; what is the history of Polish and Turkish relations in the 17th century; who was John III Sobieski and what are his merits for Poland; what is the history of the victory of Polish army – battle of Vienna of 1683. Nagranie dostępne na portalu epodreczniki.pl Since the 14th century the Ottoman Empire (the name comes from Osman – tribe leader from the medieval times) had been creating with conquests a great empire encompassing wide territories of Asia Minor, Middle East, North Africa and Europe. In Europe almost the whole Balkan Peninsula was under the sultan (Turkish ruler). The Turks threatened Poland and the Habsburg monarchy (Austria). Transylvania, Wallachia and Moldova (duchies which are parts of present‐day Romania and Moldova) were a bone of contention. In 1683 Vienna, the capital of Austria, was besieged by the Turkish army. Polish king John III Sobieski concluded an alliance with the emperor Leopold I. United Polish and German armies under the command of the Polish monarch came to the relief of Austrian capital. On 12th September 1683 there was a great battle of Vienna where John III magnificently defeated Turks. Polish mercenaries (Hussars) and artillery had the key role there.

  • The Lack of Interpretation at Fortresses Along the Danube in Serbia
    Geographica Timisiensis, vol. 19, nr. 2, 2010 (pp. 185-196) ● THE LACK OF INTERPRETATION AT FORTRESSES ALONG THE DANUBE IN SERBIA Aleksandra STANOJLOVIC, Andjelija IVKOV-DZIGURSKI, Aleksandra DRAGIN University of Novi Sad Abstract. One of the rules in tourism is that visitor demand depends on and is based on attractions. Talking about attraction interpretation necessitates is considering why a visitor at any time would like to visit a place, event or a site. Tourism in heritage sites is a relatively young and immature activity in Serbia, and the interpretation on these sites are lacking. This discussion examines the potential benefits of linking interpretation and heritage sites. Many heritage sites only recently have begun to pay serious attention to the implications of increasing visitor numbers and, that the level of tourism management and interpretation fall short of that appropriate for such important sites. Based on the literature and an exploratory study this paper argues that interpretation is essential to the management of such sites. The research focuses upon a case of Serbian fortresses, namely the observation of several well preserved fortresses along Danube river. It examines the activities and possibilities for visitation and interpretation on these fortresses, as it is considered that these fortresses have the great potential for tourism development. Rezumat. Lipsa de interpretare la cetăŃile din lungul Dunării din Serbia. Una dintre reguli în turism este aceea că cererea vizitatorilor depinde şi se bazează pe atracŃii.

    Overview of mycological literature, research and herbaria collections on macro fungi of Serbia with reference list The field guides in south Slavic languages with descriptions taken from foreign mycological literature appeared in the second part of the 20th Century and are still used for mushroom determination in the entire region First field guides for mushroom species determination in southern Slavic languages were written by the very dedicated hobbyists mainly from Slovenia and Croatia, where the culture of collecting and consuming mushrooms was well established (Božac 1989, Focht 1979, 1987, 1988). The keys for determining fungal sporocarps compiled by philosopher Ivan Focht (1979, 1987, 1988) have been the most professional taxonomic literature ever published in the ex Yugoslavia region with the original descriptions from the local findings. Even though he was the only person from ex Yugoslavia listed on the Wikipedia List of mycologists (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mycologists), Focht himself has never pretended to address to the scientific community - he dedicated his work to the mushroom gatherers (Focht 1987). Hobbyist field books with very basic descriptions, but claimed to be based on findings in Serbia and in Serbian language were published recently (Davidović 2007, Uzelac 2009). The species nomenclature in all these field guides is long outdated, which makes any kind of literature on fungi survey and analysis in Serbia very difficult. The investigations on epigeic fungal diversity in Serbia could be divided in three phases. First published data originate from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the time of kingdoms of Serbia and Yugoslavia, were the lists of species from the defined territory produced by few foreign and domestic authors (Schröter 1890, Simić 1895, 1900, Ranojević 1900, 1902, 1904, 1905a,b, 1910, 1938, Lindtner 1935, Pilat, 1937, Pilat and Lindtner 1938, Litschawer 1939).

  • Military History Anniversaries 1 Thru 15 May
    Military History Anniversaries 1 thru 15 May Events in History over the next 15 day period that had U.S. military involvement or impacted in some way on U.S military operations or American interests May 01 1778 – American Revolution: The Battle of Crooked Billet begins in Hatboro, Pennsylvania » On 1 JAN John Lacey was appointed brigadier-general and given command of a large body of militia with the aim of interrupting British supply lines, especially those reaching Philadelphia. Crooked Billet was the Headquarters of Lacey, and became the target of the British commander in Philadelphia, Gen. William Howe. Lacey had been charged with patrolling the area north of Philadelphia, between the Delaware and Schuylkill Rivers, with responsibility for warning Valley Forge of attacks, checking British foraging raids, and preventing local trade with the British. Most of the enlistments of the few troops he had were due to expire shortly. Promised, and desperately needed, reinforcements were slow arriving or simply not coming. The British dispatched a joint force of British troops and Hessians on 30 APR and they surprised the American forces whose commander was still in bed. The British had surprised the Americans and attempted to cut them off with a "pincer" type movement. Bands of Loyalists and British horsemen grew increasingly bold, and their raids into Lacey's sector were becoming more frequent. On 1 MAY, during the morning, Lacey found his camp near the Crooked Billet Tavern virtually surrounded by the British. Though outnumbered, Lacey rallied his troops during the initial attack and was able to withdraw to a nearby wooded area and make a stand.
