Society we live in teaches us to think interdisciplinary, to move easily from one area to another and successfully fulfill social roles we are ready. Interdisciplinary connections are not univocal, meaning that the flow of information is one way for an activity; communication takes place in both directions, from one activity to another and vice versa. Interdisciplinary approach assumes that any educational discipline not a closed area, but can establish links between disciplines. The history of mathematics is a field of study is an investigation into the origin of discoveries in mathematics and in a broader sense, an investigation into the mathematical methods and notation of the past. Mathematics is the oldest science, history stretching over several millennia and in many geographical areas simultaneously in the Far East to Central America, and in Asia Minor and Africa to Europe. With good reason, most researchers have considered the evolution of culture and civilization that preceded the writing mathematics, since the discovery of bones with notches, which dates back over 20,000 years BC Belgian geologist Jean de Heinzelin of Braucourt, in 1950, found in volcanic ash on the bank of a lake in the Great Rift Valley of Africa, on the border between Congo and Uganda, which later was called "bone / stick Ishango" more exactly two bones of about 10 to 14 inches, with multiple incisions and secured with a piece of quartz in the thin end of one of the two bones. Notch, not random, are indicative of counting systems, in base 10, and some basic arithmetic.

The article presents the main topics related to the lifestyle of patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes based on an analysis of biographical interviews. The paper examines the content of the concept of self-management and provides an analysis of research on the impact of social networks – their mechanisms and practices. A scheme of thematic analysis of the biographical narratives is developed and key categories, topics and subtopics with relevant quotes are offered to illustrate patients’ self-management process. The levels of analysis include individualperceptual level; social-categorical level associated with social network analysis and macroorganizational level, dealing with system factors. Conclusions are made both for the serious methodological potentials of biographical interviewing in health sociology and the overall description of the process of self-management of patients with type 2 diabetes in Bulgaria.

The anonymous description of the life of Emperor Baldwin I, presented in this study, is a particularly interesting text with some of the details it provides about the events of 1204–1206. Although researchers cannot rely entirely on the data contained in it, the excerpt adds some details that clarify the way the Latin Empire was built in its first years. The information it provides about Bulgarian history is not new but confirms facts already known and thus offers a more reliable support to the researchers in the reconstruction of the events from the beginning of the 13th century.

The region of Karlovo which is a cradle of the Bulgarian spirit during the Revival is full of springs. The strong belief in their healing properties is as ancient as their origin. The research of the springs had been made in 1995 and nowadays many of the informers are not alive. The present scientific report has been published in memory of them. The author emphasizes on the intermingling of paganism and Christianity. This is evidenced by the marble votive tablet with an image of three nymphs (3rd century, AD), found in the area ‘The Holy Trinity’ near Sopot in 1942, while a local resident was hoeing the vineyard there. During the time of the Thracians that place was a sanctuary of the nymphs. They were considered deities of the springs and the healing water. Centuries after that, after the acceptance of Christianity, in the area ‘The Holy Trinity’ a chapel with a holy spring was build, and it was also called ‘The Holy Trinity’. The holy springs are springs of health and hope. They are connected with Christianity, as well as with folk medicine, because if a person wants to get better with the help of their properties, first of all they must have strong and pure faith in their heart as the pure healing water from these holy springs.

This essay is an approach to a defining element of the literary of Octavian Paler, one of the most representative names of posttotalitare literature, a representative of contemporary Romanian literature essays area. Combining the memories, the confessions, the travel journal and the letter in boundary formula of the essay, Octavian Paler shapes an universe dominated by myths, but reflected in his inner world and contaminated with his existentiale obsessions. Whatever places he travels (Greece, Egypt, Italy or Mexico), his eye is always turned to himself. His universe, faithfully translated in his books, is a world of pure subjectivity in which myth and biography meet. Thus, a symbolic space is born, a place of birth and becoming . Regarded as a symbol of genesis, this topos is shaped both as a relief area, the mountain, and toponymy suggestion , Lisa. Octavian Paler aims not so much to the remembrance of an age, that of childhood, but to reshaping a world, a space of eternity. ("Something of a peasant in the urban luster I have left until now and, perhaps, in the depths of my melancholy, I kept the rain flavor of Lisa, remained like moisture in old trees grown in places far from the sun "- Desert forever)

City, by its definition, is the area of meeting or even crushing of different values and ideas not only through interactions between people but also through creation of places, cultural areas, different types of social spaces. It is necessary for functioning of the city defined both as community and as an element of macrosystems such as economy, culture or politics. Social spaces come into being through ongoing, planed and random community actions. They emerge from meanings attached to a given objects, norms, values and material elements of culture and from social interactions. Urban social spaces, especially public spaces are kind of display for a values crucial for a given age and place, where some elements are underlined, other omitted or even altered.

The article presents a partial analysis of the results of a research project called “Culture and Development,” which was carried out in 2014-2015 by a wide range of researchers gathered around the Advanced Studies Institute, run by the Stanisław Brzozowski Association. In the research, twelve cases of socio-cultural initiatives were analyzed. The article focuses on two of them: the Terra Artis Association and Łaźnia Nowa Theatre. The results of the two analyses are used as examples in order to diagnose the relations between the socio-cultural initiatives and socioeconomic development. Those relations are described using terms and ideas referring to development which were defined in the “Culture and Development” project. Those terms include mostly: empowerment, sense of community, participation, sustainability and auto-reflexiveness. The presentation of those terms is the second goal of the article.
