Korunovační obřad byzantských císařů v pozdně antickém a raně středověkém období / Coronation of Byzantine Emperors in Late Antiquity and Early Middle-Ages

Havlík, Tomáš January 2014 (has links)
- 5 - Abstract: The diploma thesis "Coronation of Byzantine Emperors in Late Antiquity and Early Middle Ages" deals with gradual changes of the ceremonies associated with the imperial accessions. Using narative, legal, artistic and numismatic evidence, it attempts to identify crucial components of each coronation ceremony, analyses gradual transformation these components underwent and points out new developments that helped each emperor to estabilish his right to the throne. The thesis also deal with the imperial insignia used both during coronation ceremonies and during other court rites.

Évolution paléoclimatique et paléohydrologique de la Méditerranée occidentale au cours des derniers 30 000 ans : contribution des dinokystes et des foraminifères planctoniques

Rouis-Zargouni, Imène 13 February 2010 (has links)
Cinq carottes de la Méditerranée occidentale ont fait l’objet des approches multidisciplinaires basées essentiellement sur l'analyse des dinokystes, des foraminifères planctoniques et des isotopes afin d'identifier et préciser l'évolution climatique de ce bassin. L'ensemble de l'Holocène correspond au maximum de développement des dinokystes S. mirabilis et I. aculeatum et des foraminifères planctoniques G. inflata et G. ruber tandis que les épisodes froids sont caractérisés par la présence de Nematosphaeropsis labyrinthus et a un degré moindre de Spiniferites elongatus. Si dans la proximité du détroit de Gibraltar il est possible de distinguer les évènements de Heinrich du Maximum Glaciaire (LGM) cette distinction est moins évidente en se dirigeant vers l’Est. Au contraire le Younger Dryas s’exprime de façon identique sur l'ensemble du bassin occidental et se caractérise par le développement optimal de N. labyrinthus s’accompagnant d’après les fonctions de transfert dinos d’une baisse importante de la salinité. Cet épisode est marqué aussi par des concentrations maximales de dinokystes remarquablement corrélées à une augmentation du ?13C de G. bulloides. Cette augmentation de la productivité primaire au Dryas Récent est à relier à l’intensification des échanges Méditerranée-Atlantique. Par opposition, l'Holocène inférieur montre une baisse de la productivité primaire en Méditerranée occidentale contemporaine de la mise en place du sapropéle S1 dans le bassin oriental. Comme dans l'océan Atlantique, le refroidissement du "8.2 event" est clairement observée en Méditerranée occidentale ainsi que trois autres épisodes correspondant à ~9,3 ka; ~7 ka et ~2,7 ka cal. BP. / A multidisciplinary approach is occurred on five western Mediterranean cores based on dinocysts, planktonic foraminifera and isotopes to identify the climatic evolution of this region. The Holocene correspond to the maximal development of dinocysts S. mirabis and I. aculeatum and planktonic foraminifera G. inflata and G. ruber but the cold periods are characterised by the presence of N. labyrinthus and Spiniferites elongatus. The microfaunistic assemblages show that it's less easier to distinguish the LGM to Heinrich events (HE) when the study sites are far to strait of Gibraltar. The Younger Dryas is marked by the optimal development of N. labyrinthus on the entire basin in association to an important decrease of Sea Surface Salinity reconstructed on the basis of dinocyst transfer function. During this period, an intensification of Mediterranean-Atlantic water masses exchange is recorded by the increase of the ?13C of G. bulloides associated to the maximal dinocysts concentration. By contrast, the lower Holocene shows a decrease of primary productivity in western Mediterranean contemporaneous to the deposition of S1 sapropel in eastern basin. As in Atlantic Ocean, the 8.2 event is clearly observed in western Med with three other cold events at 9.3 ka, 7 ka and 2.7 ka cal. BP.

Using and reusing the monumental past in the late antique Mediterranean West, 300-600

Underwood, Douglas R. January 2015 (has links)
Scholarship on late antique cities has largely conceptualized them as singular entities, either decaying or transitioning as Roman imperial power and economic structures shifted. Improved archaeological data from urban sites, accompanied by a number of broad synthetic studies, now allow for fresh exploration of the details of urbanism in this transformative era. This study examines the ways that a select group of public buildings were used and reused in the Mediterranean West between 300 and 600 CE. This examination is primarily carried out through the collection of a broad catalogue of archaeological evidence (supplemented with epigraphic and literary testimony) for the constructions, work projects, abandonments and reuses of key public monuments across the Western Mediterranean region—principally Italy, southern Gaul, Spain, and North Africa west of Cyrenaica. This broad survey is augmented with case studies on select cities. Such an analysis of the late antique histories of baths, aqueducts, and spectacle buildings (theaters, amphitheaters, and circuses) shows that each of the building types had a distinct history and that public monuments were not a unitary group. It also reveals unexpectedly few regional trends, suggesting that these histories were broadly common across the West. Further, this study shows that each building type was reused differently, both in terms of purposes and chronology. Finally, by considering economic, technological, cultural and legal factors affecting patterns of use, abandonment and reuse, this study establishes that the primary cause for the transformations to public building was largely a change in euergetistic practices in late antiquity. Cities with access to imperial or other governmental patronage used and maintained their public monuments longer than those without. Together these observations demonstrate the complexities of urban change in this period and prove that the idea of a single pattern of decline in late antique cities is no longer tenable.

Hodgkin Lymphoma in children, adolescents and young adults

Englund, Annika January 2017 (has links)
Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a heterogeneous condition varying from engaging one single lymph node site to a widespread condition. The prognosis with contemporary treatment is excellent for the vast majority. However, the treatment might cause severe late adverse effects in a proportion of the affected individuals. We evaluated all children and adolescents diagnosed in Sweden and registered in the Swedish Childhood Cancer Register over a period of 25 years. The incidence has been stable and the overall survival (OS) is very good, comparable to the best results in the world. Approximately ten percent encountered a relapse, but even after relapse the chances of survival were good. During the study period there were no detectable changes in survival estimates. The use of radiotherapy has decreased. Epstein Barr virus (EBV) and numbers of eosinophils, mast cells and macrophages in the tumors were investigated in 98 cases. Young children were more likely to express EBV. In patients with advanced disease the mast cell and macrophage counts were higher and they also had more affected laboratory parameters. Patients with Nodular Lymphocyte Predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma did not express EBV in the tumor, had significantly lower numbers of eosinophils, mast cells and macrophages and less affected laboratory parameters compared to classical HL. Outcome and clinical presentation were investigated in a cohort of children, adolescents and young adults in Sweden and Denmark and treatment in pediatric and adult departments was compared. OS and event-free survival (EFS) did not differ between the three age groups nor between pediatric and adult treatment. However, the Danish pediatric patients had lower EFS, which corresponded to less use of radiotherapy. Adolescents and young adults shared similar characteristics, while children presented differently with less advanced disease and male preponderance. Hospitalization rates and outpatient visits after end of treatment were evaluated to see whether the excess need of resources described in the literature is evenly distributed among the survivors or whether it is limited to a smaller group. Most of the patients had a low burden of health care use and the relapsing patients were the main drivers of the excess need.

Digital textile patterns inspired by themes from the late 1950s/early 1960s

Pickett, Meagan Lynette January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / Department of Apparel, Textiles, and Interior Design / Sherry J. Haar / Inspired by people and objects of the late 1950s/early 1960s, textile patterns were created to use as a tool in the education of children through play. Four themes were developed, with three main prints in each theme. These twelve prints had a coordinating print and solid colors designed, and were utilized in the development of paper doll clothing. Representing the look of Jacqueline Kennedy, the paper dolls feature a pearl necklace, sunglasses, and a brunette hairstyle. Fabric was also printed on using a home-based ink jet printer, and used to construct a garment for an 18-inch, three dimensional doll. The final outcomes were exhibited in a display window, with an interactive element for adults and children at the opening reception.

La diversité culturelle au paléolitique moyen récent : le vasconien et sa signification au sein des faciès moustériens / The cultural diversity at the late middle palaeolithic : the vasconian and its signification in the mousterian facies

Deschamps, Marianne 26 September 2014 (has links)
La présence de hachereaux au sein de nombreux sites du Paléolithique moyen pyrénéo-cantabrique a conduit F. Bordes à définir en 1953 un faciès régional, le Vasconien. Par la suite, des analyses typologiques centrées sur la représentativité des outils retouchés ont remis en question la validité de ce faciès tandis que la présence récurrente mais sporadique de hachereaux dans des ensembles du Paléolithique moyen a entraîné l’idée d’une perduration depuis l’Acheuléen ibérique. Dans ce travail de ré-évaluation du Paléolithique moyen récent pyrénéo-cantabrique, une large gamme de données issues de plusieurs champs disciplinaires a été mobilisée. Ce renouveau du cadre contextuel se voit consolidé par l’obtention récente de datations absolues permettant de proposer un cadre chronologique précis pour le Moustérien à hachereaux de l’OIS 3. L’analyse de près 450 hachereaux provenant de neuf sites est fondée sur une caractérisation technologique, morphométrique et fonctionnelle de ces outils du Paléolithique moyen récent. Cette première étape de caractérisation est ensuite complétée par la comparaison avec un corpus de près de 200 hachereaux acheuléens provenant de sites localisés au sein de la même aire géographique. Les différences perçues entre ces deux populations, corrélées à un cadre chronologique redéfini, permet d’écarter l’idée d’une perduration ponctuelle de ces outils depuis l’Acheuléen et de les identifier comme l’expression d’une réinvention, leur octroyant de la sorte une nouvelle signification culturelle. Parallèlement, les séries lithiques provenant de 7 sites localisés au nord de la zone vasco-cantabrique ont été analysées selon les principes classiques de la technologie lithique. Ces ensembles sont issus de contextes topographiques variés (grotte, abri, plein air) et de milieux diversifiés (montagnard, littoral, aride). Bien qu’une variabilité attendue soit perceptible entre ces ensembles, le même fond technologique est présent et les différences perçues sont évaluées à l’aune de la fonction présumée des occupations. Interprétées en termes de complémentarité, ces différences autorisent à proposer l’hypothèse d’un modèle d’organisation territorial à faible mobilité impliquant cependant une structuration sociale complexe de ces sociétés de la fin du Paléolithique moyen. Un premier essai de construction d’une archéoséquence pour la région pyrénéo-cantabrique permet de mieux cerner l’homogénéité et la place du Vasconien au niveau régional ainsi que vis-à-vis des technocomplexes qui l’encadrent. Des comparaisons avec les différentes traditions techniques évoluant en synchronie (principalement le Moustérien de Tradition Acheuléenne) permettent également d’aborder la question de leur autonomie respective et de proposer de nouvelles aires d’influences techniques auxquelles elles sont soumises. / The presence of cleavers in numerous Pyrenean-Cantabrian Middle Paleolithic sites led to the creation of a regional facies called Vasconian (Bordes, 1953). Later, typological analyses based on shaped tool classes’ cumulative frequency have questioned the very existence of this facies (Cabrera Valdés, 1983). The recurrence of cleavers within Middle Paleolithic assemblages was then interpreted as a long perdurance of the Iberian Acheulean. The present research was aimed to re-evaluate the Pyrenean-Cantabrian Late Middle Paleolithic through the comparison of a large variety of data. It is supported by a detailed and renewed chronological framework for the Mousterian with cleavers of OIS 3 based on newly obtained radiometric data. The analysis included technological, morphometric and functional characterization of over 450 cleavers from nine sites attributed to the Late Middle Paleolithic. Our results were then compared to ca. 200 Acheulean cleavers from the same area. The differences between these two populations and a revised chronological framework allow us to reject the hypothesis of a sporadic persistence of cleavers after the Acheulean. We rather propose that these tools have resulted of a new invention and fully were a cultural marker. Meanwhile, the whole lithic ensembles from seven sites located north of the Basque-Cantabrian area were analyzed with the conventional methods of lithic technology. These sites correspond to various topographic contexts (caves, rock shelters, and open air sites) and to diverse environments (alpine, coastal, and arid). Despite an expected variability between these ensembles, we identified a shared technological tradition and propose that differences could be the result of different site functions. If we consider the different sites as being complementarity, we can propose the hypothesis of a low-mobility territorial structuration and thus a social complexity of the Late Middle Paleolithic societies. A first attempt to build a cultural-stratigraphic sequence for the Pyrenean-Cantabrian region is being made in order to properly assess the Vasconian location and homogeneity as for the constraining techno-complexes. Comparisons with contemporaneous techno-complexes (and more particularly with the MTA) allow us to address their respective autonomy within a newly defined technical are of influence.

Studien zur Wandmalerei des 15. und 16. Jahrhunderts in Bayerisch-Schwaben/ Allgäu

Menath, Jan 29 June 2021 (has links)
Die spätgotischen Wandmalereien in Bayerisch-Schwaben/ Allgäu verdienen aufgrund ihrer Ikonographie, Geschichte und Maltechnik größere Beachtung. Erstmalig werden sämtliche überlieferten Wandmalereien – einschließlich der nicht mehr sichtbaren – und deren Geschichte dokumentiert. Fragen nach den Wohltätern und Stiftern, den Künstlern sowie den an der Erhaltung und Wiederherstellung dieser Malereien beteiligten Personen, deren Motive und methodisch-technische Vorgehensweisen werden näher betrachtet. Ausgehend von dieser Studie ist es schließlich möglich, die Entwicklung der Bayerischen Denkmalpflege als auch die Konservierungs- und Restaurierungspraxis von Wandmalerei und die damit verbundene Methodik, Ethik und Ästhetik zu präzisieren. Das Ergebnis ist eine Konkretisierung unterschiedlicher Einflüsse zur Entstehungs- und Veränderungsgeschichte der Wandmalereien, wodurch das derzeit zur Verfügung stehende Wissen erstmals in einem monographischen Kompendium kontextualisiert wird und gleichzeitig eine Lücke in der Erforschung der mittelalterlichen Wandmalerei in Bayern schließt. / The late Gothic wall paintings found in Bavarian-Swabia/ Allgäu deserve significant attention in terms of their iconography, history and painting technique. This thesis first considers traditional wall paintings – including those that are no longer visible – and their history. The research focuses on the sponsors, artists and those involved in the conservation and restoration of these wall paintings. The methodological and technical approach of people involved in conservation is closely examined. It is possible to clarify not only the development of the Preservation of Monuments but also the methods adopted to conserve and restore wall paintings and the methods, ethical and aesthetic perspectives involved. This thesis thus addresses a gap in the research already carried out on Gothic painting in Bavaria. It elucidates and brings together the various influences at work and presents a compendium on the evolution, history and conservation of wall paintings.

Tracer des limites, les franchir : essai sur la notion de frontière, en Syrie, à la fin du deuxième millénaire avant Jésus-Christ. / Tracing Boundaries, Crossing Boundaries : An Essay on the Concept of “Border” in Syria at the End of the Second Millennium BC

Racine-Dognin, Elisabeth 09 January 2015 (has links)
Si, comme nous le suggérons, le mot « frontière » désigne un lieu de contact et d’échanges entre deux espaces plutôt qu’une ligne de séparation bien tracée, de nombreuses frontières existent, politiques, sociales, culturelles, linguistiques dans un Proche-Orient ancien qu’on qualifie souvent de « monde sans frontières » parce qu’il partage la même culture cunéiforme. Du XIVe siècle av. J.-C. au début du XIIe, les États syriens sont dans la mouvance successive d’empires puissants, Mitanni, Égypte, Hatti, qui se les disputent et fixent leurs frontières politiques, tandis que les frontières juridiques (de qui est-on justiciable ?) ou économiques (qui édicte les obligations fiscales ?) se superposent. Dans une Syrie où les langues parlées sont diverses, il existe, et même il se crée, des « entre-deux » linguistiques. Les zones frontières sont traversées sans cesse, volontairement (nomades, marchands) ou sous la contrainte (captifs). Dire qui est « un étranger » n’est possible en Syrie que de façon relative. Cependant, ni tout à fait étranger, ni membre de la communauté, un étranger résident peut, parce qu’il bénéficie d’une certaine protection et peut s’intégrer, devenir un de ceux par lesquels les cultures se transmettent. / If, as we would define it, the word “border” indicates a place of contact and exchanges between two spaces rather than a well-drawn line of separation, numerous borders exist: political, social, cultural, linguistic in an Ancient Near East often characterized as “a world without borders” since it shares the same cuneiform culture. From the fourteenth century BC to the beginning of the twelfth, the Syrian States have belonged to successive spheres of influence of powerful empires, Mitanni, Egypt, Hatti, which dispute them between themselves and fix their political borders, whereas the legal borders (to which jurisdiction you are under?) or economic ones (which authority imposes the tax obligations?) overlap. In Syria where the spoken languages are diverse, linguistic interspaces exist, are even created. Fringe areas are crossed ceaselessly, voluntarily (nomads, traders) or under duress (captives). To determine who is “a foreigner” is only possible in Syria in a relative manner. However, neither a true foreigner, nor a member of the community, a “resident foreigner” (since he is partly protected and may become integrated) can be one of these through whom the cultures are passed on.

La couronne dans les sources iconographiques et textuelles juives et chrétiennes : significations d’un symbole tardo-antique / The crown in Jewish and Christian textual and iconographic sources : meanings of a late-antique symbol

Amsellem, Roxane 06 June 2017 (has links)
Le motif de la couronne, fortement présent dans les corpus iconographiques juifs et chrétiens, a été majoritairement perçu comme une contamination païenne des dits répertoires. Par la même, son interprétation symbolique est jugée secondaire et son emploi serait essentiellement d’ordre décoratif. Par la constitution d’un double corpus sélectif, l’un iconographique et l’autre textuel, notre démontrons que ce motif connaît une signification symbolique profonde et propre aux deux religions. Mes travaux permettent, d’une part, une meilleure compréhension des évolutions iconographiques et religieuses si caractéristiques de l’Antiquité tardive, et, d’autre part, de cerner les interactions entre les groupes religieux juifs et chrétiens du monde gréco-romain. En effet, la prise en compte et la confrontation de l’ensemble des sources textuelles et iconographiques tardoantiques juives et chrétiennes ont tout d’abord montré que le thème de la couronne est omniprésent. Cette omniprésence s’explique dans la mesure où les significations symboliques qu’elle véhicule sont fondamentales et multiples. Attribut de pouvoir (celui du roi celui du prêtre), attribut et sceau divin, attribut christique, angélique et céleste, la couronne est au cœur de la pensée juive et chrétienne de la rétribution. Ce symbolisme puissant s’enracine dans la Bible. C’est à partir des passages bibliques, pourtant peu nombreux, mentionnant la couronne, que les exégèses ultérieures se sont constamment développées ; cela en insistant toujours plus sur la dimension céleste de la signification de ce motif, au détriment de ses connotations terrestres liées historiquement à la royauté davidique et à la prêtrise aaronienne. Le motif de la couronne et son interprétation de plus en plus eschatologique sont présents dans tous les corpus littéraires ou épigraphiques que nous avons étudiés. Les premiers témoins de cet accroissement de la valeur symbolique de la couronne sont les littératures intertestamentaire, pseudépigraphique et qumrânienne au tournant de notre ère, dans lesquelles l’attention se focalise sur le sort des justes. / The motif of the crown, strongly present in the Jewish and Christian iconographic corpus, was mainly perceived as a pagan contamination of the said repertoires. By the same token, its symbolic interpretation is considered secondary and its use essentially decorative. By the constitution of a selective double corpus, one iconographic and the other textual, we demonstrate that this motif knows a deep symbolic meaning specific to both religions. My work makes it possible, on the one hand, to better understand the iconographic and religious evolutions so characteristic of late antiquity, and, on the other hand, to identify the interactions between the Jewish and Christian religious groups of the Greco-Roman world.Indeed, taking into account and confronting all Jewish and Christian late antique textual and iconographic sources initially showed that the theme of the crown is omnipresent. This omnipresence is explained insofar as the symbolic meanings which it conveys are fundamental and multiple. Attribute of power (that of the king that of the priest), attribute and divine seal, attribute Christic, angelic and celestial, the crown is at the heart of the Jewish and Christian thought of retribution.This powerful symbolism is rooted in the Bible. It is from the biblical passages, however few in number, mentioning the crown, that the subsequent exegeses have been constantly developed; With an increasing emphasis on the heavenly dimension of the meaning of this motif, to the detriment of its terrestrial connotations historically related to the Davidic kingdom and the Aaronic priesthood. The motif of the crown and its increasingly eschatological interpretation are present in all the literary or epigraphic corpuses that we have studied. The first witnesses to this increase in the symbolic value of the crown are the intertestamental, pseudepigraphic and qumranian literatures at the turn of our era, in which attention focuses on the fate of the righteous.
