Kildare rebellion (1534-1535) in the Annals of the Four Masters
2020
Abstract One of the most important Irish historical sources, which are the Annals of the Four Masters, written in the modern period, provide us with unusually valuable information about the history of the Emerald Island. In addition to data from the ancient or medieval periods, it also contains material from the difficult 16th and 17th centuries for Ireland, when it came under the yoke of English Protestants, who were initially represented by the Tudors and then by the Stuart dynasty. The Annals of the Four Masters also witnesses the resistance of the Irish, both those from Hiberno Normans and Gaelic Irish, to the demands of new authorities, including the rejection of Catholicism and total …
Investigating the Challenges of Promoting Dark Tourism in Rwanda
2019
ABSTRACT J. Ntunda interrogates to what extent dark tourism would be a product to be fostered in Rwanda. Based on formal interviews done over 43 specialists who take part of RDB [Rwanda Development Board], Ntunda holds that several incompatibilities which include lack of skilled staff and problems in the accessibilities to the site prevent today dark tourism would be a valid option. However, we live in a hyper-globalized world where information is produced, packaged and disseminated in minutes to a broader audience. In this new world, there is no place to hide. Therefore, specialists and policymakers should promote Rwanda taking advantage of global sources and the information which is digit…
Tuvās vēstures ainas. Vēsturisko priekšstatu par Livoniju rašanās 13.gadsimta historiogrāfija
2014
Promocijas darba tēma ir vēstures priekšstatu par Livoniju izcelsmes un formēšanās procesa īpatnības 13. gadsimta historiogrāfijā. Izpētes fokusā ir hronikas, annāles un citi historiogrāfijas teksti, kas radīti ārpus Livonijas laikā starp 1195./1196. un 1280. gadu. Viduslaiku Eiropas 13. gadsimta historiogrāfijā samērā reti sastopami notikumu apraksti, kas atspoguļo Livonijas sociālo, politisko un kultūras integrāciju viduslaiku pasaulē. Šie hroniku un annāļu teksti uzskatāmi parāda, ar kādu nolūku, kādiem literāriem līdzekļiem un kādu mērķi senie autori veidoja savus Livonijas pagātnes konceptus. To pamatā bija Rietumu kultūrā iedibināta izpratne un priekšstati par vēsturi kā pagātnes stās…
The Citation Factor Reconsidered: New Alternative for Tourism and Hospitality Research
2018
This note of research deals with the obsession of tourism scholars for citation impacts. Here I analyze not only the problems of tourism research but also how commercial publishers monopolized the production and the academic market through the imposition of the sense of prestige. We hold the thesis that the citation impact corresponds with a narcissist trend oriented to undermine the critical thinking. AUTOR Maximiliano E Korstanje - Doutorando.
