Concerning the Portail Royal of Chartres: Historiography and Iconography This article aims to survey the historiography on the three sculpted tympanums of the Portail Royal of Chartres Cathedral, ...which represents an essential context of the early Gothic. From the contribution of Hénault (1876) to the fine-tuning of Christe (2013), Angheben (2017) and Berné (2018), the studies have encountered many difficulties, especially concerning the central and left tympanums. Scholars faced a debate full of articulations and clarifications, from Emile Mâle (1948) to Adolf Katzenellenbogen (1959), from Willibald Sauerländer (1972 and 1984) to Margot Fassler (1993 and 2010), from Anne Prache (1993 and 2000) to Eliane Vergnolle (2008), from Roland Halfen (2001) to Till Evers (2011 and 2012), from Yves Christe (2013) to Marcello Angheben (2017). The attempts to recognise in the left tympanum a subject other than the Ascension (Van der Meule 1981, Fassler 1993) were unsuccessful, and Fassler herself then changed her position. More singular, until recently, is the substantial misunderstanding of the iconography of the central tympanum, which in no way can assume eschatological connotations. It is instead a present vision of Christ's majesty, and the Apostles with books and rotuli do not appear as assessors of the Last Judgement, but rather as entrusted with the mission of evangelisation: they represent the earthly Church that must complete the mission in this world (Mk 16, Mt 24). An Author's contribution on this tympanum is being published.
Na temelju Matejeva, Markova, Lukina i Ivanova evanđelja, Djela apostolskih te hagiografske zbirke Legenda aurea aut vitae sanctorum Jakoba de Voragine, ali i druge relevantne literature u radu se ...govori o dvanaestorici Isusovih učenika i apostola. Posebna pozornost posvećuje se (re)konstrukciji života apostola sv. Filipa i sv. Jakova. Juraj Šižgorić i Marko Marulić u svojim pjesmama opjevali su apostole među koje su uvrstili i sv. Pavla koji je sam sebe nazivao apostolom. Sv. Filip propovijedao je među Skitima. Razapet je i dotučen kamenjem u Hijerapolu. Dvije njegove kćeri mučeničkom smrću posvjedočile su vjeru u Isusa Krista. Sv. Jakov Alfejev nazivan je i Jakov Mlađi, Jakov Pravedni te brat Gospodinov jer je iznimno sličio Isusu pa su ih zamjenjivali. Bio je prvi biskup u Jeruzalemu, gdje je mučen i umoren. Relikvije apostola sv. Jakova Alfejeva nalaze se u rimskoj crkvi Dodici apostoli uz apostola Filipa. Stoga ih Katolička crkva slavi istoga dana. Spomendan sv. Filipa i sv. Jakova Alfejeva do 1955. godine slavio se 1. svibnja. Papa Pio XII. te godine odredio je taj dan kao spomendan sv. Josipa radnika, a svetkovina sv. Filipa i Jakova premještena je na 3. svibnja.
Paper discusses the twelve disciples and apostles of Jesus based on the Gospels of St. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, Acts of the Apostles and Jacobus de Varagine’s work Aurea legenda aut vitae sanctorum, as well as other relevant literature. Special attention is paid to the (re)construction of the life of the apostles St. Philip and St. James. Juraj Šižgorić and Marko Marulić wrote about the apostles in their poems, among whom they included St. Paul. St. Philip preached among the Scythians. He was crucified and stoned to death in Hierapolis. His two daughters testified to their faith in Jesus Christ by suffering a martyr’s death. St. James, son of Alphaeus, was also known as James the Less, James the Just, and the Brother of the Lord because he was remarkably similar to Jesus, so they were misrecognized. He was the first bishop of Jerusalem where he was tortured and murdered. Relics of the apostle St. James, son of Alphaeus, are in the Roman church of Dodici apostoli next to the apostle St. Philip. Therefore, Catholic Church celebrates them on the same day. The memorial of St. Philip and St. James, son of Alphaeus, was celebrated on May 1st up to 1955. That year pope Pius XII designated May 1st as a memorial of St. Joseph the Worker and the memorial of St. Philip and James was moved to May 3rd.
Two types of materials were sampled as part of an investigation of the relics of the Holy Catholic Church of the Apostles St Philip and St James in the Basilica dei Santi Apostoli in Rome: bone- and ...mummy-materials and architectural samples. The analyses encompassed radiocarbon dating, thermoluminescence dating, gas and liquid chromatographic separation with mass spectrometric detection, X-Ray fluorescence, X-Ray diffraction, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, Raman spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The results show that the samples were subjected to a number of conservational and exhibition-related treatments. The alleged femoral bone of St James was dated between AD 214 and 340 (2σ confidence), which shows that this cannot be the bone of St James. An encrustation found in a canal in the reliquary in the high altar construction showed the presence of heavily oxidized rapeseed oil, which was radiocarbon dated between AD 267 and 539 (2σ confidence), and a ceramic shard also found in the high altar construction was TL-dated to AD 314–746 (2σ confidence). The two latter dates are consistent with a

of the relics following the erection of the church at the time of Pope Pelagius I in AD 556–561.
The starting point of this article is the question of whether there is a connection between the Slavic theme in the early poetry of Karol Wojtyła and the papal teaching of John Paul II addressed to ...the Slavic nations. The main inspirations and ideas present in Wojtyla’s juvenilia are identified through the analysis of three aspects of his poetry: the creation of the subject, the literary kinship by choice and the historiosophical ideas evoked. The results of this comparative research indicates that the author’s poetic imagination is rooted primarily in the Bible and in the works of the Polish Romantic poets. A particularly privileged place here is occupied by Cyprian Norwid, the author of the poems Promethidion and Chopin’s Piano. The concept of nations and their historical mission in the papal teaching has numerous points in common with the Slavic thoughts of Adam Mickiewicz (in his Paris lectures) and Norwid in his poetry. The threads of selected homilies and the encyclical Slavorum Apostoli testify to this.
In The Apostles in Early Christian Art and Poetry the relation between visual and poetic images of Christ's closest followers is discussed from the time of the first Christian figural images and ...poetry till the political end of the undivided Roman Empire (250-400).

One of the major gold mining regions in Romania is part of the gold rectangle in the Apuseni Mountains and lies around the town of Brad. It is here that the ”Ruda 12 Apostoli” Mining Association of ...cuxas was established at the end of the XVIIIth century. This association was to become the most important unit for the mining of precious metals in the entire Austrian – Hungarian Empire after 1884, when it was taken over by the German company ”Harkortschen Bergwerke und Chemische Fabriken zu Schwelm und Harkorten A.G. zu Gotha”, preserving its status in the interwar Romanian as a component of the ”Mica” Mining company. This mining complex had a production of 27,919.520 kg of gold between 1884 – July 1, 1911.
