Religious participation in the local communities of 17th-century Eastern Finland

2022

In recent years, the perspective of lived religion has drawn attention toward the everyday religious practices of the laity. In early-modern Europe, the realm of the sacred could be approached in different ways from within the mundane world, and religious practices were tightly intertwined with social life. In local communities, religious ideas and practices taught by the church in varying ways intermingled with traits from local religious traditions. This article examines the different ways of religious participation available to the rural inhabitants of late 17th century Eastern Finland, a part of the kingdom of Sweden during the early modern era. Applying the concept and approach of live…

Die Embryologie im Spannungsfeld zwischen Tradition und Empirie.

1991

Already in classical antiquity people dealt with the principle of formation, developing different theories. Researchers in the renaissance, working in the conflict zone between tradition and experience, tried to prove one or the other of these theories by the means of new observations, especially of chicken development. Aldrovandi was the first to see the real principle of formation of the hen's egg, i. e. the blastodisc, but he didn't recognize the importance of his discovery due to his close adherence to Aristotle in the theoretical field. Fabricius even thought that traditional knowledge was of more importance than his own excellent observations. Parisano was the first to succeed in maki…

The Vesalian movement in sixteenth-century Spain.

1979

In the middle of the sixteenth-century under the direct influence of Vesalius's works there arose in Spain a movement devoted to the renewal of anatomical knowledge. It was one of the initial forces in the spread of the Vesalian reform, but in spite of that it has been almost completely ignored by specialized historical research.' The purpose of this article is to provide a general study of the movement with special emphasis on the conditions which determined its development. In the first place I should make it clear that the renewal in question did not arise from the relationship that Vesalius maintained throughout

Work-life balance during the COVID-19 outbreak: the case of Latvia

2020

This paper aims to shed light on work-life balance in Latvia during the state of emergency The COVID-19 outbreak has led many governments to introduce lockdowns While imposed restrictions may help to contain the spread of the virus, they may also result in substantial damage to population well-being The COVID-19 outbreak in Latvia demonstrates the extent and ways in which socio-demographics factors have determined different patterns of behaviour, attitudes, employment changes and harmonised work and life balance The study describes the chronological development of COVID-19 in the country It describes labour migration to and from Latvia before the COVID-19 outbreak It provides geographical f…

Speciation of neptunium during sorption and diffusion in natural clay

2016

In argillaceous rocks, which are considered as a potential host rock for nuclear waste repositories, sorption and diffusion processes govern the migration behaviour of actinides like neptunium. For the safety analysis of such a repository, a molecular-level understanding of the transport and retardation phenomena of radioactive contaminants in the host rock is mandatory. The speciation of Np during sorption and diffusion in Opalinus Clay was studied at near neutral pH using a combination of spatially resolved synchrotron radiation techniques. During the sorption and diffusion experiments, the interaction of 8 μM Np(V) solutions with the clay lead to the formation of spots at the clay-water …

Du censeur des moeurs dans la Rome républicaine à la théologie morale des jésuites au XVIIe siècle : vingt-deux siècles de développements du droit en…

2013

Cette section envisage certainement l’histoire du droit sous l’angle de la longue durée : la première contribution traite de développements qui commencent au ve siècle avant notre ère et la dernière se situe au xviie siècle. Cette constatation comporte sa part de réconfort, mais également d’inquiétude. On doit se féliciter qu’à travers les travaux d’une nouvelle génération de chercheurs, parmi lesquels, comme en témoigne ce recueil, l’époque contemporaine se taille la part du lion, la poursui...

La socialisation du droit privé à Lyon (1870-1940) marque-t-elle la fin des droits subjectifs ?

2011

Lors de ses conférences à l’Ecole des hautes études sociales, Léon Duguit définit le droit subjectif comme le pouvoir « d’une personne à imposer à une autre sa propre personnalité ». Avec cette définition, le publiciste n’entend pas poser les limites qui permettraient d’identifier si tels ou tels droits peuvent être qualifiés de subjectif. Il n’a pas davantage l’ambition de décrire le régime juridique de chacun d’eux. Son principal souci est d’insister sur les conséquences, parfois néfastes, ...

Time cycles of homicide in the early modern Nordic area

2020

An extensive body of criminological research has shown that criminaland violent behaviour manifests time patterns in terms of daily,weekly and annual cycles. This is consistent with criminologicalroutine activities theory. Can we generalize these patterns to historicalperiods? In this article, we draw on a recently created uniquedataset, covering the years 1608–1699 in three Nordic regions, toexplore time cycles of offending in the early modern period.Examining daily, weekly and annual cycles, we find that lethalviolence manifested strong time patterns in the early modernperiod. The role of public holidays was central especially in theperiod lasting from Christmas to Midsummer. Probing the …

Sensitivity of Bunker Cave to climatic forcings highlighted through multi-annual monitoring of rain-, soil-, and dripwaters

2017

The last two decades have seen a considerable increase in studies using speleothems as archives of past climate variability. Caves under study are now monitored for a wide range of environmental parameters and results placed in contextwith speleothemdata. The present study investigates trends froma seven year longmonitoring of Bunker Cave, northwestern Germany, in order to assess the hydraulic response and transfer time of meteoric water fromthe surface to the cave. Rain-, soil-, and dripwaterwere collected fromAugust 2006 to August 2013 at a monthly to bimonthly resolution and their oxygen and hydrogen isotope composition wasmeasured. Furthermore, drip rates were quantified. Due to differe…
