Interconfessional (Mixed) Marriage: The Theological Dimension of the “Person” and Pastoral Care in the History of the Holy and Great Council of Crete…
2018
Abstract In the last century, under the influence of the theological personalism (theology of the Person), the Orthodox Church felt the need of a universal and uniform approach to different pastoral questions. Among those we find also the question of inter-confessional (mixed) marriage. This question was approached during the preparation of the Holy and Great Council of Crete. In 2016 the Great Council of the Orthodox Church, finally convened, specified and confessed that inter-confessional marriages are forbidden according to the traditional canon-law (akriveia), but the salvation of the person must be kept in mind and permission could be given in the spirit of pastoral discernment (oikono…

Social Insurance Accounting for a Notional Defined Contribution Scheme Combining Retirement and Long-Term Care Benefits
2018
This paper develops a social insurance accounting model for a notional defined contribution (NDC) scheme combining retirement and long-term care (LTC) contingencies. The procedure relies on standard double-entry bookkeeping and enables us to compile a “Swedish” type actuarial balance sheet (ABS) following a framework equivalent to an open group approach. This methodology is suitable for reporting the system’s solvency status and can show periodical changes in the system’s financial position by means of an income statement. The information underpinning the actuarial valuation is based on events and transactions that are verifiable at the valuation date, without consid…
HETEROGENEITY IN RISK PREFERENCES LEADS TO STOCHASTIC VOLATILITY
2018
This paper studies the price processes of a claim on terminal endowment and of a claim on firm book value when the underlying variables follow a bivariate geometric Brownian motion. If the state-price process is multiplicatively separable into time and endowment functions, our main result shows that firm (endowment) price volatility is stochastic (state-dependent) if, and only if, the endowment function is not a power function. In a pure exchange economy populated by two agents with constant relative risk aversion (CRRA) preferences we confirm the separability, and we show furthermore that firm (endowment) price volatility is stochastic (state-dependent) if, and only if, both agents are he…

Tipogrāfs Gerhards Šrēders un latīņu okazionālā dzeja
2019
Rakstā atainota Rīgas pilsētas otrā tipogrāfa Gerharda Šrēdera (Gerhard Schröder, ?-1657) darbības vide un dzīvesgājums. Vispirms iezīmēti grāmatiespiešanas pirmsākumi Rīgā, tipogrāfa pienākumi, pasūtījumu klāsts, atlīdzība par darbu un iegūstamās privilēģijas. Tad aplūkoti priekšnoteikumi, kas Gerhardam Šrēderam bija jāizpilda, lai iegūtu Rātes atļauju pārņemt darbu Nikolaja Mollīna (Niclaes Mollijns, ap 1550/1555-1625) spiestuvē. Tipogrāfijas kvalitātes un iespieddarbu specifikas raksturošanai pētīti okazionālās dzejas iespieddarbi: apskatīts poligrāfiskais izpildījums (vienā iespieddarbā izmantoto dažādo izmēru un veidu burtu komplektu skaits, dekoratīvo elementu, kokgrebumu un gravīru p…
New Approaches to OCR for Early Printed Books
2020
Books printed before 1800 present major problems for OCR. One of the main obstacles is the lack of diversity of historical fonts in training data. The OCR-D project, consisting of book historians and computer scientists, aims to address this deficiency by focussing on three major issues. Our first target was to create a tool that identifies font groups automatically in images of historical documents. We concentrated on Gothic font groups that were commonly used in German texts printed in the 15th and 16th century: the well-known Fraktur and the lesser known Bastarda, Rotunda, Textura und Schwabacher. The tool was trained with 35,000 images and reaches an accuracy level of 98%. It can not on…
