Sūfisma ideju interpretācija Idrīsa Šāha grāmatā "The Sufis"
2022
Bakalaura darba nosaukums ir “Sūfisma ideju interpretācija Idrīsa Šāha grāmatā “The Sufis””. Darba tēma ir “The Sufis” grāmatas analīze par sūfisma filozofijas potenciālu mūsdienu cilvēka dzīvē. Mūsdienās cilvēkiem aug interese par Tuvo Austrumu garīguma praksēm, kas aptver cilvēku skatījumu uz dzīvi. Ņemot vērā valodu barjeru, mācību materiālu dažādība par citās kultūrās atrodamām filozofiska rakstura idejām ir ierobežota, tādēļ ir svarīgi kritiski aplūkot jaunāko laiku reliģiju interpretācijas. Idrīss Šāhs “The Sufis” grāmatas ietvaros vēlējies iepazīstināt Rietumu sabiedrību ar sūfisma mācības idejām, bet tās pielāgotas rietumnieciskās kultūrvides izpratnei. Šāha grāmata ir saņēmusi akad…
Greening and sustainable energy approach applied for Balearic Islands and Fiji Islands: a comparative study
2018
Renewable energy sources are expanding around the world, with significative results in the electricity generation sector. Despite this, the share of renewable energy sources in small islands is very low, except in rare cases. In this context, the paper analyses the energy mix currently used to produce electricity in the Balearic Islands and the Fiji Islands. These two archipelagos show several differences but have in common the strong energy dependence from fossil fuels. In order to increase the energy sustainability of small islands, a preliminary energy assessment is realized, using climate data collected from GIS-tools and introducing a numerical approach. As target, the Authors consider…
A new method for morphometric analysis of opal phytoliths from plants.
2014
Micro-morphometry has substantially gained ground in the field of phytolith analysis, but the comparability of results is limited due to the use of different methods. This paper presents a new, user-friendly method based on open-source software (FIJI) that is proposed as a step towards the introduction of a standard method. After obtaining a mask of a phytolith by making a digital drawing, 27 commonly used variables of size and shape are measured automatically. This method is not only useful for phytolith analysis, but may also be used for other fields of morphometric research. Users can furthermore customize the software tool when additional variables are required.
