This paper presents a practical approach for digitizing city landmarks based on free and limited Web resources. The digital replicas are then placed on the Web using popular services, like Google earth, and are accessible to a huge user base. The method is easily applicable and quite valuable to organizations with limited funding.

The paper examines the relationship between William Morris’s Medievalist aesthetics and the other anti-naturalist trends at work in the 1890s, by looking at his fantasy writing, particularly Child Christopher and Goldilind the Fair. The way in which his text makes use of the generic markers of the fairy-tale, its treatment of closure and of authorship and the use of ornamentation all connect Morris’s writing to fin-de-siècle experimentation.

In modern theatre shows, the masks were used to create typologies, to dis-individualize characters, to emphasize the ceremonial character of staging. The mask reveals the ritual roots of the genre, infusing the dramatic experience with more detachment, releasing it from the style and dynamics of realistic drama. The antiheroes / anti-heroines in the Absurd Drama appear as grotesque automata, drained of any human substance, like masks and puppets easy to handle. The playwrights of the Theatre of the Absurd do not necessarily use the mask as disguise. The human figure becomes materialized in true masks. Stage props can have a plurality of meanings. Ionesco’s stage props can be understood as an attribute of the character, a distinguishing feature, that characterizes the antihero / anti-heroine, acquiring symbolic value. Beckett brings on the stage objects that overpower the spirit as the body separates from it. But the object can be bearer of humorous messages, tending to balance the feeling of despair or finitude. The absurd drama plays, the Ionescian or Beckettian ones cannot be reduced to the interpretations offered to traditional plays that have a conflict which can be summarized in narrative form. The essential feature of the plays indebted to the Theatre of the Absurd is precisely that they motivate us to find multiple reading versions.
More...Keywords: school organization; educational management; educational system and process; quality in education
School can be defined as an organization due to: its organizational structure, its organizational control, its organizational behavior, and organizational change. The role of the educational manager is to limit the bureaucratic perspective and the perspective of a “peopleless organization” and to develop the school organizationally, from the latter’s systemic perspective. The changes generated by the social, political, economic, and cultural modifications of the last twenty years in our country are to be found both at the level of the educational system and, in particular, at the level of the educational process. Thus, given the dynamics and especially the effects of the educational reforms implemented over the last twenty years, one cannot fail to approach the school organization from the perspective of the management of change.

September 1929, when the ministry of culture established the department of ethnology at the University of Szeged, the first of its kind in Hungary, was an important milestone in the history of ethnology as a discipline in Hungary. The later professor and head of the department was Sándor Bálint (1904–1980), outstanding researcher on the cultural history and folk life of Szeged and ethnology of religion in Hungary. In the 2004/2005 academic year the University of Szeged, the museum and the municipality commemorated the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the department of ethnology and the centenary of the birth of Sándor Bálint with an exhibition, the publication of books, anniversary conferences and film screenings. The anniversary events were held with the participation of Hungarian and international representatives of our discipline and the related fields.

Kd. 6: 1940–1991: II osa (Tallinn: Eesti Kunstiakadeemia, 2016).The ambitious six-volume project of the history of Estonian art was launched in 1999, and the two-part volume examined here is the largest addition to the series.The richly illustrated series is published in Estonian; however, quite substantial English summaries (28 pages in part I, 31 pages in part II) allow also foreign readers to grasp at least a broad outline of the facts, structure and methodology

translator, translation, translation techniquesTurning to good account the translating practice and thetechniques which have been applied so far, the comparative analysis intranslation highlights the similar or different aspects when rewriting theoriginal. Both translations submitted to attention reflect linguisticknowledge, social and cultural awareness besides personal perspective,talent and intuitive grasp of the literary text. In order to acquire theaccurately reflected (i.e. translated) image of E. Allan Poe’s ‘House ofUsher’, the translator should analyse several other reflections (i.e. steps)which help him or her obtain the most faithful resemblance (i.e. translation)to the original. Two remarkable Romanian translators – Ion Vinea and LiviuCotrău – have already beaten this devious path.

In connection with the innovation in the Czech pre-school education – placing two-year-old children in kindergarten, we identified the following: a) teachers’ attitude to accepting two-year-old children; b) the teachers’ reasons for rejecting two-year-old children. Our assumption was as follows: 1) teachers who currently do not have two-year-old children in their classes will reject two-year-old children less than others; 2) the rejection of two-year-old children is directly proportional to the heterogeneous class age range. Our assumptions were proven partially.

Statistical data on foreign trade are collected in all EU member states separately and then passed on to Eurostat where the data are aggregated. Continuous actions are to ensure that all datasets collected at national level are fully comparable. The aim of the paper is to provide a classification as well as an ordering of CN chapters (2-digit codes) according to the quality of data on intra-Community trade of goods. Data were taken from Eurostat’s COMEXT database. In ordering the chapters, we utilized the distance from the ideal solution with GDM as the distance measure. The study reveals a structure of goods subject to intra-Community trade that is supplementary to the official nomenclature. In addition, we provided CN chapters ordering according to the overall level of irregularities in reported mirror values of ICS and ICA. The results we obtained are of practical value for both researchers and authorities interested in foreign trade.

Nowadays, we want it or not, all things or people areconnected between themselves through technical ways(means of communication, transportation devices), differentactivities, states of mind. Analyzing the Universityzone, we observed that at the square level there are fiveimportant buildings, connected and accessed by the underpass,which leads also to the subway- a link to otherimportant places in the city. Each building has its ownsmall area of interest from the cultural, services, andeducation point of view.The project proposes a way to cover the accesses to thesubway and also to mark the main interesting places ofthe area through an organic web and links, made fromcables and tarpaulin.The triangles made from the way that cables are displaced,demarcate passing areas, covered places for thepedestrians, recreational and green areas.
