Landelinus, l’auteur de la plaque-boucle mérovingienne au Christ de l’Apocalypse découverte à Ladoix-Serrigny (Côte-d’Or) serait-il saint Landeli…

2021

Cette note concerne l’exceptionnelle plaque-boucle au Christ cavalier de l’Apocalypse découverte à Ladoix-Serrigny et étudiée précédemment dans cette revue. Son objectif est de discuter l’hypothèse récemment émise selon laquelle saint Landelin, qui a vécu au VIIe siècle dans le nord de la Gaule, serait Landelinus, l’auteur de cet objet. Plusieurs arguments militent en faveur de cette interprétation qui nous paraît donc plausible, même si elle reste fragile. Il est également envisagé de localiser cette fabrication dans le prestigieux monastère de Luxeuil. Mais il s’agit là encore d’une hypothèse. This note concerns the exceptional buckle-plate to the Christ cavalier of the Apocalypse discove…

El juramento o promesa de acatamiento del estatuto de autonomía en las corporaciones locales y el uso de fórmulas imaginativas

2021

El art. 23 Constitución Española, consagra el derecho fundamental al sufragio activo y pasivo, y lo hace, respecto al sufragio pasivo, en su apartado 2º: “Asimismo, tienen derecho a acceder en condiciones de igualdad a las funciones y cargos públicos, con los requisitos que señalen las leyes”. La configuración legal del derecho fundamental al acceso a los cargos públicos determina que los requisitos para tal acceso deban estar previstos en normas de rango legal. Tal exigencia deviene tanto por la específica previsión del art. 23.2 CE, como por la aplicación del principio de reserva de ley del art. 53.1 CE: “Los derechos y libertades reconocidos en el Capítulo segundo del presente Título vin…

Building transformative capacity towards active sustainable transport in urban areas – Experiences from local actions in Finland

2022

Recent research has recognised cycling and walking (active transport) as substantial elements contributing to sustainable mobility and public health challenges. There is less knowledge available on the integrated contributions of local-level governance processes and practical implementation of active transport promotion activities. To illustrate comprehensively the contributions of local-level activities, we defined a framework presenting transformative capacity towards active sustainable transport. The framework presents the essential elements and criteria in assessing the level of contributions towards active and sustainable mobility. Previous literature and a case study in six Finnish mu…

High-dimensional Big Data processing with dictionary learning and diffusion maps

2015

Algorithms for modern Big Data analysis deal with both massive amount of sam- ples and a large number of features (high-dimension). One way to cope with these challenges is to assume and discover the existence of localization in the data by uncovering its intrinsic geometry. This approach suggests that different data segments can be analyzed separately and then unified in order to gain an understanding of the whole phenomenon. Methods that utilize efficiently local- ized data are attractive for high-dimensional big data analysis, because they can be parallelized, and thus the computational resources, which are needed for their utilization, are realistic and affordable. These methods can explo…

Obecność elementów inkulturacyjnych w polskich posoborowych księgach liturgicznych

2020

The liturgy is the celebration of the only mystery of Christ, which is timeless, but always takes place in a specific civilizational and cultural environment. The result is numerous liturgical rites and liturgical families, which are characterized by a specific difference in the celebrated liturgy, which is an expression of the long-term inculturation process. Inculturation of the liturgy is something natural and is expressed through a specific language, songs, music, sculpture, painting and church architecture. The presented article shows how local traditions were introduced in Poland to the post-conciliar Roman liturgy. It turns out that when editing the Polish version of the new liturgic…

Translingual and translocal perspectives on writing : An introduction

2022

This special issue has been inspired by presentations and discussions which took place during the first workshop of our  NOS-HS research network ‘The Politics and Ideologies of Multilingual Writing’ (Stockholm University, 27-28 May 2021). In this issue, we explore translingual and translocal perspectives, zooming in on various aspects of writing, from its legitimacy to its localities. Our focus is on writing for publication by authors with multilingual repertoires and/or working in multilingual settings. Unlike previous research, which focused on academic, journalistic, and creative writing as separate domains, we aim to bring together researchers working in different subfields of linguisti…

Time-space of possibilities: translocal geographies of Latvians in Guernsey

2014

Promocijas darba autore radoši izmanto laika ģeogrāfijas perspektīvu, izveidojot translokālu modeli, ar kura palīdzību tiek analizēti migrācijas veidi no vienas puses un klātbūtnes/prombūtnes pieredze no otras puses. Pētījuma pamatu veido kvalitatīvās metodes: intervijas, novērojumi un ģeogrāfiskās mobilitātes līdzdalīgais novērojums no 2010. gada līdz 2012. gadam. Šis ir pirmais detalizētais pētījums vienā no Lielbritānijas salām – Gērnsijā, kas pēdējo 20 gadu laikā piesaistījusi migrantus no Latvijas. Ģeogrāfiski norobežotas vietas mērogs kopsaistē ar Eiropas Savienības pilsoņu brīvas pārvietošanās iespējām veido īpašus ierobežojumus un iespējas laiktelpā, kurā īslaicīga migrācija pārtop …

Biocultural conflicts: understanding complex interconnections between a traditional ceremony and threatened carnivores in north Kenya

2022

Abstract Biological and cultural diversity are inextricably linked and rapidly eroding worldwide. As a response, many conservation efforts foster synergies between cultural and biological diversity agendas through biocultural approaches. However, such approaches do not always address biocultural conflicts, where certain cultural practices can lead to biodiversity loss and, in turn, threaten the continuance of such practices. In this study, we examined a biocultural conflict in the Dimi ceremony, the most important rite of passage of the Daasanach agro-pastoralists of north Kenya, in which skins from threatened carnivore species are used extensively as traditional ornaments. We quantified th…

The Participation of Local Communities to the Landscape Planning: a Controversial Path in Sicily

2013

The European Landscape Convention (Florence, 2000) foresees the integration of landscape into town planning policies and spatial planning (Art.5.d). However, landscape protection instruments (landscape plans), that are active today in many European countries, particularly in Italy), almost always take sectorial value, hierarchically prevailing to other planning tools and evading the democratic process of sharing with local communities. In relation to these considerations, the present paper focuses on the results of a critical reading of an experience of landscape planning in Sicily: the Landscape Plan of the Specific Area 8 in the Messina’s province. In this area the Nebrodi local community…
