Representations of the Life-giving Spring feast in Romanian iconography
2021
This article explores the development of the theme of the Life-giving Spring in Byzantine iconography. The path towards its establishment was initiated at the moment when a representation rule, an original convention was set. Thereafter, because of its diffusion in time and space, the theme became enriched by particular mentalities and sensibilities of the epochs and the communities that adopted it as a form of devotion for the Virgin Theotokos. As a result, the representations we have known so far are extremely varied. Contribution: The final purpose of this approach, as well as its contribution, is to highlight the diverse unity of the iconographic tradition and illustrate both the evolut…
Une qualité d’emploi mitigée : qu’est-ce qui motive les aides à domicile?
2014
The employment quality in the sector of home care services raises a number of questions. In this sector, job positions are hard to fill and they meet unattractive working conditions. Overall, the sector is suffering from a rather negative image. This article, through a qualitative study, identifies the differentiation factors of employee satisfaction in terms of employment quality, and the work motivation factors, in an environment that is not always favorable. The results show that the perception of employment quality is not homogeneous, but rather produces convergent representations revealing issues with human resources management. A variety of factors appear to motivate the home care ser…

Pro Bono Publico? Demand for Military Spending Between the World Wars
2017
This article analyzes the demand for military spending in the 1920s and 1930s, based on variables arising from the international system and the selected countries. The main premise is that the military spending was an impure public good, implying that both public and private benefits drove the demand for this type of expenditure. Threats arising from the autocratic states in the 1930s increased these expenditures, and democracies overall tended to spend less. Moreover, the absence of clear international leadership by the USA or UK destabilized the international system and increased military spending, with alliances failing to produce a public good effect. Military spending resulted in joint…
Karl Holl (1866-1926) – luterański badacz źródeł patrystycznych
2019
Treść niniejszego artykułu została poświęcona badaczowi starożytności chrześcijańskiej, jakim był żyjący na przełomie XIX i XX wieku Karl Holl (1866-1926). Urodzony w rodzinie protestanckiej znacznie angażował się w pogłębienie i rozwój protestantyzmu w Niemczech zarówno aktywnością społeczno-religijną, jak i twórczością pisarską. Obok tego pasma działalności w jego życiu okazał się on ponadto wybitnym historykiem, publikując także przyczynki naukowe odnoszące się do starożytności chrześcijańskiej. Spośród nich na szczególną wzmiankę zasługują wydania krytyczne obejmujące pisma Epifaniusza. Śmiało zaprezentował bowiem swój punkt widzenia w kwestii autorstwa utworów ukazujących Epifaniusza j…
Pyhäpäivien vietto varhaismodernin ajan Savossa (vuoteen 1710)
2016
In this dissertation, I study the observance of holy days among the peasantry in the early modern province of Savo, located on the eastern periphery of the Swedish kingdom (today Eastern Finland). I examine the practices, norms and meanings related to the observance of holy days both within and outside the Church, and analyse the changes and continuities in the post-reformation period. As the main sources of the study, I use district court records and visitation records mainly from the period 1639–1712. I analyse the cases with a micro-historical perspective and an anthropological approach. The lived religion of the peasantry was constituted especially through practices that were connected …

Kulttuuriympäristöt ovat alueita, jotka rakentuvat ajassa ja tilassa ihmisen ja ympäristön välisen toiminnan tuloksena. Kulttuuriympäristöt ovat jatkuvassa kehityksen ja muutoksen tilassa olevia tapahtumaketjuja, joissa maisemat avautuvat ja sulkeutuvat ja joissa uusia rakennuksia pystytetään ja vanhoja joko hylätään, puretaan tai suojellaan. Muuttuvaisuudestaan huolimatta kulttuuriympäristöillä mielletään olevan keskeinen merkitys ihmisen identiteetille ja viihtyvyydelle.[1] Miten ihmiset pystyvät luovimaan tässä muutoksen virrassa ja kiinnittymään ja tuntemaan kuuluvansa omaan elinympäristöönsä? Yhden lähestymistavan edellä esitettyihin kysymyksiin tarjoaa ympäristön kuvalliseen esittämis…

Always in crisis, always a solution? : The Nordic model as a political and scholarly concept
2021
While campaigning for the 2016 US Democratic Party presidential nomination, Senator Bernie Sanders invoked the Nordic countries as a model for future politics. In a debate, he declared, ‘I think we should look to countries like Denmark, like Sweden and Norway, and learn from what they have accomplished for their working people.’1 Hailing the Nordic countries, especially Denmark, as an example of ‘democratic socialism’,2 Sanders’s vision engendered a heated debate, with political opponents critiquing the implied political agenda, the prime minister of Denmark protesting the idea of Denmark as a socialist country, and journalists and pundits presenting corrective views of the economic and soc…
