The book discusses all five cholera epidemics that hit the central Slovenian area in 1836, 1849, 1855, 1866, and 1886. It is the first synthesis of cholera epidemics and the first presentation of the ...health conditions in the 19th-century Carniola.Largely drawing on original archival materials, the book also provides Slovenian historiography with new and original knowledge, and substantially places itself side by side other European and American historiographical research dealing with the phenomenon of cholera epidemics in health, social, cultural and political context.
These substantial volumes present the fullest account yet published of the lexicography of English from its origins in medieval glosses, through its rapid development in the eighteenth century, to a ...fully-established high-tech industry that is as reliant as ever on learning and scholarship. The history covers dictionaries of English and its national varieties, including American English, with numerous references to developments in Europe and elsewhere which have
influenced the course of English lexicography.
Part one of Volume I explores the early development of glosses and bilingual and multilingual dictionaries and examines their influence on lexicographical methods and ideas. Part two presents a systematic history of monolingual dictionaries of English and includes extensive chapters on Johnson, Webster and his successors in the USA, and the OED. It also contains descriptions of the development of dictionaries of national and regional varieties, and of Old and Middle English, and
concludes with an account of the computerization of the OED.
The specialized dictionaries described in Volume II include dictionaries of science, dialects, synonyms, etymology, pronunciation, slang and cant, quotations, phraseology, and personal and place names. This volume also includes an account of the inception and development of dictionaries developed for particular users, especially foreign learners of English.
The Oxford History of English Lexicography unites scholarship with readability. It provides a unique and accessible reference for scholars and professional lexicographers and offers a series of fascinating encounters with the men and women involved over the centuries in the making of works of profound national and linguistic importance.
The first part of the book discusses the position of Slovenian émigré literature and its place in the framework of Slovenian national literature and culture. In the second part, the most significant ...immigrant writers in Slovenia are presented, and their position in the cultural context of Slovenia is analyzed. The third part comprises a broader examination of the immigrants’ position in Slovenia, their (cultural, socio-economic, political) integration, and the level of their equality regarding the status of their cultural-artistic activities and their affirmation in broader Slovenian society. The last part of the book opens a number of comparisons between the positions of Slovenian emigrants and the immigrants in Slovenia.The comparative analysis focuses on the factors influencing cultural life of the immigrant community as such. This is followed by a chapter on literary bilingualism among emigrant/immigrant writers. The concluding chapters continue to problematize the concept of a single “national language” as the demarcation line between national literatures. A theoretical concept of a “concentric paradigm of national literature” is introduced. The authors of the included foreword and review are Matjaž Hanžek and Aleš Debeljak.
The book, published to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of Anton Melik Geographical Institute, outlines the main features of the institute, such as the establishment and development as well as the ...main stages of the research work over the years. The institute, being part of the Scientific Research Centre of Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts since 1981, is comprised of five departments: the Department of Geoecology, the Department of Regional Geography, the Department of Natural Disasters, the Department of Geographical Information Systems and the Department of Thematic Cartography. Besides this it houses a library, geographical collections, a cartographic collection and the Commission for the Standardisation of Geographical Names appointed by the Government of the Republic of Slovenia.Rich additional material, mainly photos, that result from the research projects (the Triglav glacier and the glacier below Skuta, natural disasters and alpine farms) as well as from the preparatory work for numerous geographical publications about Slovenia and its landscapes, complements the text.

Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- V času po 1. svetovni vojni je bil ptujski okraj močno agrarno in neurbanizirano območje. Industrijske zmogljivosti tega območja so ...bile majhne. Obrt in trgovina nista imeli pomembnejšega izvoznega deleža. Obrt se je omejevala le na potrebe mesta in kmečke okolice, trgovina pa ni segla mnogo čez krajevne potrebe. Zapora nekdanjih tržišč ter tuja konkurenca je močno prizadela zlasti obrtniški stan. Mestno zaledje je bilo izrazito agrarno. V času med obema vojnama je Ptuj sicer ohranil funkcijo pomembnega tržišča in posrednika v izvozu poljščin, vina, živine, kož, mesa in mesnih izdelkov, a se je zaradi izgube starih tržišč prejšnji izvoz občutno zmanjšal. Spremenjene tržne razmere, neorganiziran odkup kmetijskih pridelkov, vinogradniška kriza in prometna zaostalost okraja so slabile položaj kmetijskih proizvajalcev Dravskega in Ptujskega polja ter Haloz in Slovenskih goric. Ker kmetijstvo zaradi majhnih posesti ni moglo preživeti vseh, se je odvečna delovna sila največkrat zatekla v mestno občino, ki je tudi po 1. svetovni vojni ostala močno središče nemškega kapitala. Približno polovica trgovskih in industrijskih obratov ter obrtnih delavnic je bilo last ptujskega nemštva, ki je po vojni prevzelo jugoslovansko državljanstvo in uspelo ohraniti gospodarski monopol. V njihovih rokah je bilo tudi veliko vinogradov in posesti v okolici Ormoža in vinorodnih okoliših Haloz, v Ptuju pa so posedovali več kot polovico stanovanjskih poslopij. Boj za ekonomsko eksistenco je slovenske ljudi spravljal v odvisnost od nemškega kapitala.Čeprav se je zaradi nemškega izseljevanja narodnostno razmerje v mestu spremenilo v prid Slovencem, so slovensko-nemška nasprotja ostala nenehni spremljevalec dogajanj na Ptuju. Gospodarsko močna nemška manjšina je sicer izkazovala »lojalnost« novi jugoslovanski državi, a izkoriščala gmotne težave mestne občine ter strankarske razprtije nove oblasti v svojo korist. Svoja društva in organizacije je spretno izrabljala v politične, protidržavne namene, odkrito pa je svoja hotenja začela izražati po zmagi hitlerizma. Vse to je pri slovenskem prebivalstvu na Ptujskem sprožilo mnoge narodnoobrambne akcije. Poslanstvo krepitve narodne zavesti je slonelo na slovenskih šolah in društvih – aktiven člen teh dogajanj je bila tudi ptujska dijaška mladina.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.
