Otherness and self in latvian theatre: Changes at the turn of the nineteenth century
2015
In the article, political and historical interpretations of the first play in Latvian, an adapted translation of Ludvig Holberg’s Jeppe of the Hill (1723, Latvian version 1790) are explored. Although the play has been often interpreted as a work of anti-alcohol propaganda, the article argues that the political motives of the play are no less important. Translated into Latvian during the time of the French revolution, the play mirrors the tense atmosphere of the revolutionary years and reflects changes in Latvian peasant identity. While translating, Baltic German pastor Alexander Johann Stender changed the play’s setting to the late eighteenth century Courland and added new details, emphasiz…
Uxor et femina. Enquête sur la désignation des femmes dans les documents diplomatiques bourguignons (IXe-XIe siècle)
2013
International audience; À partir de l'analyse des cooccurrences des lemmes désignant les femmes, en particulier uxor et femina, cet article rend compte des premières observations issues d'une expérience de " lecture à distance " d'une masse de documents numérisés. L'enquête a été réalisée sur un corpus de 6348 actes diplomatiques, des années 800-1100, d'origine bourguignonne principalement, réunis dans la base de données des CBMA - Chartae Bourguindiae Medii Aevi, augmentés de quelques ensembles rhodaniens et méridionaux, où les chartes de l'abbaye de Cluny représentent 60% de l'ensemble. L'interrogation des collocations de uxor a permis d'observer que l'apposition systématique du lemme nom…
The Polish Nation: From a Multiethnic to an Ethnically Homogenous Nation-State
2009
In Chapter 4 I focused on the stateless noble natio of partitioned Poland-Lithuania that sought to transform itself into a Polish nation. The Polish-Lithuanian noble leaders paid lip service to the French model of the nation-state but, apart from a few lonely dissenting voices, had no intention to broaden the confines of the planned Polish nation to embrace the ‘third estate,’ that is, the peasantry and burghers. The social barrier of serfdom alone kept the nobles from associating with peasants. In the cities, a large and sometimes predominant, segment of the population was made up of German-speakers and Yiddish-speaking Jews. Their idioms disqualified them from participation in the emergin…

Właśnie w czasach oszczędności finansowych oraz postępującego procesu ekonomizacji kultury jest ważnym fakt, aby filolodzy angażowali się również kulturowo i politycznie dla swoich autorów, nad którymi sprawują opiekę naukową, oraz w zakresie tematyki dzieł. Artykuł opisuje przygotowywaną wystawę w Domu Literatury im. Johann-Heinrich-Voß'a w Penzlin, w miejscowości, w której Voß otrzymał pierwsze impulsy rozwoju. Voß wyjaśnia propozycje szkolno-pedagogiczne, w pewnym sensie skromne warsztaty literackie, które zostaną zrealizowane w ramach wystawy stałej zatytułowanej "Johann Heinrich Voß. Grek z Mecklenburii".
Returns To Education During And After The Economic Crisis: Evidence From Latvia 2006–2012
2017
We employ EU-SILC micro data for Latvia to study how returns to education changed during the economic crisis of 2008–2009 and afterwards. We found that returns to education increased significantly during the crisis and decreased slightly during the subsequent economic recovery. The counter-cyclical effect was evident in nearly all population groups. After the crisis, education became more associated than before with a longer working week and a higher employment probability. Furthermore, we show that returns to education in Latvia are generally higher in the capital city and its suburbs than outside the capital city region, as well as for citizens of Latvia than for resident non-citizens and…
