Središnja tema rada usmjerena je na raščlambu udjela Sinjana i Cetinjana u mletačkim prekomorskim kopnenim postrojbama (pješaštvo i konjaništvo) u 18. stoljeću. Rad se zasniva na raščlambi izvornoga ...arhivskog gradiva pohranjenoga u Archivio di Stato di Venezia, a riječ je o popisima pripadnika pojedinih vojnih postrojbi koje je provodila nadležna državna magistratura Inquisitori sopra l’amministrazione dei pubblici ruoli. U uvodnome dijelu rada ukratko se iznose opći podatci o mletačkim prekojadranskim postrojbama, dočim je središnji dio teksta usmjeren na raščlambu konkretnih primjera prisutnosti Sinjana i Cetinjana u mletačkoj kopnenoj vojsci. Analizira se njihova ukupna brojnost tijekom 18. stoljeća, učestalost spominjanja u izvorima, iznose opći podatci o zapovjednicima postrojbi, mjesta djelovanja te se ukazuje na neka opća obilježja onovremenih vojnika (dob, statura i drugo).
U prilogu rada donosi se cjelovit pregled svih Sinjana i
Cetinjana (prema dosadašnjim istraživanjima) zabilježenih
u mletačkim kopnenim vojnim snagama.
This paper brings together biographies of the earliest historiographers of the Military Frontier, whose works represent the inevitable “zero point” in historical disciplines as well as the humanities ...at large. These historiographers include Johann Andreas Demian (ca. 1770 – 1845), Carl Bernhard von Hietzinger (November 3, 1786 – March 26, 1864), Mathias Stopfer (1795 – September 8, 1841), Franz de Paula Julius Frass (1794 – March 11, 1868), Paul Kussan (January 12, 1795 – February 2, 1875), Franz Bach (1793 – February 3, 1868), Josef Hostinek (1830 – January 10, 1905), Leopold Martin Krainz (1834 – December 26, 1872), and Franz Vaniček (July 6, 1809 – April 6, 1894). Their lives were reconstructed on the basis of previously published data in secondary literature, and gaps were filled in, where possible, with the help of relevant monthly army censuses, the accompanying documentation, and registry books. Transfer certificates, which in addition to basic information on personal lives offer a very detailed overview of progress in the professional career, helped the most. Using these documents, it was possible to correct some overlooked errors in the previously published biographies. Comparing the biographies of the first historiographers of the Military Frontier, the authors have noticed some very interesting similarities as well as differences. Most of the studied persons were officials of the Military Frontier administration, except for Demian and Hietzinger, who belonged to the highest military council in Vienna, and Krainz, who partly made his career in a military unit. Three of them were prominent members of educational staff in the Military Frontier. Stopfer was a professor at the Military Administration School in Graz, Frass was the principal of all schools in the Karlovac Generalate, and Vaniček was the principal of the Higher Grammar School in Vinkovci. Bach and Krainz served as military judges. Historiographers with most writings relevant to the Military Frontier are Demian, Stopfer and Vaniček. Hietzinger, Kussan, Bach, Hostinek, and Krainz published one seminal work each. While at the beginning the emphasis was on statistics and geography, from the mid-19th century the focus increasingly shifted to historical events. Most authors based themselves on works published before theirs: Hietzinger on Demian, Stopfer on Hietzinger, Frass on Hietzinger and Stopfer, and so on. However, the most interesting discoveries about their personal and professional lives concern the way these were intertwined. Based on the available and collected data, it could be established that seven of the nine mentioned persons lived to be between 74 and 84 years old. Stopfer died the youngest, at the age of 45, and it was not possible to find out Krainz’s date of death. A combination of high age and a long professional career, which implied frequent transfers, created favourable conditions for possible encounters. Between 1828 and 1830, Stopfer and Bach served simultaneously in the Otočac Regiment, Hostinek was a student of Vaniček and then Stopfer, and Vaniček was member of a society whose president was Hietzinger, the Imperial and Royal Geographical Society in Vienna (k. k. Geographische Gesellschaft). Although the authors of this paper have tried to shed as much light as possible on the careers of historiographers whose works have been indispensable guideposts on the path of scholarly knowledge about the Military Frontier as a historical phenomenon, the primary intention was to encourage further research into this understudied historical topic.
Članak donosi pregled urbanističkog razvoja i izgradnje Vinkovaca od sredine 18. do sredine 19. stoljeća. Zamah u razvoju grada bio je potaknut proglašenjem Vinkovaca zapovjednim mjestom Brodske ...pukovnije 1747 godine., a potom i statusom vojnog komuniteta 1765. kojim su regulirani pravni odnosi i obveze vojnog i civilnog stanovništva. Vojnokrajiške su vlasti poduzele izgradnju velikog broja vojnih zgrada, u početku većinom oko glavnoga gradskog trga, gdje su podignute kuće pukovnika, brigadira, prvog i drugog bojnika, vojnog suca i glavna straža, no gradnja se nastavila tijekom čitave prve polovine 19. stoljeća, pri čemu je gotovo pedesetak zgrada bilo u funkciji vojne administracije. Taj intenzitet pratilo je i građenje civilnih građanskih kuća, trgovaca i obrtnika, mahom srpskog podrijetla, na prijelazu 18. u 19. stoljeće, koje su bile karakteristične po arkadnim trijemovima na pročeljima. U članku se pokušavaju odrediti osnovna prostorna i oblikovna obilježja ove arhitekture kojom je naposljetku i formirano današnje povijesno središte Vinkovaca.
Koristeći se pristupom regionalne i lokalne povijesti u studiji se na primjeru Lovinačkog kraja u Lici analiziraju dramatične političko-društvene i kulturno-demografske preobrazbe izazvane osmanskom ...ekspanzijom u XVI. stoljeću. Ovaj kraj u svemu je dijelio sudbinu ostalih područja Like i Krbave koji su se našli na razmeđu suprotstavljenih imperija, stekavši tako karakter udaljene osmanske periferije i iskustvo „režima krajina“ koje će potrajati do duboko u XIX. stoljeće. Rad se primarno temelji na osmanskim izvorima, naročito poreznim katastarskim popisima za područje koje se od 1574. našlo u sastavu nahije Cvituša. Propituju se brojne dimenzije diskontinuiteta prouzročenih disolucijom krbavskog kneštva („zemlje Ivana Karlovića“) krajem XV. i početkom XVI. stoljeća te formiranjem vojno-upravnih struktura osmanskog „serhata“ u XVI. stoljeću. Analizira se kako su se navedeni dinamični procesi odrazili na lokalnom lovinačkom primjeru, posebice u kontekstu promjena naseljenosti, stanovništva i prostorne organizacije. Sagledavaju se osmanski planovi izgradnje fortifikacijskog sustava, kolonizacijske i fiskalne politike. Također se daje uvid u novonastali konfesionalni raspored i stanje vjerskih objekata.
During the Early Modern Period, mainly in the time of the Veneto-Ottoman wars in the seventeenth and the eighteenth century, the backbone of Venetian Trans-Adriatic armed forces were units called ...Fanti oltramarini and Croatia cavallo, whose soldiers were recruited primarily from the Venetian acquisitions stretching from Istria to Albania and Greece. In this article, the central topic of research relates to the part the denizens of Split played in the aforementioned military units during the eighteenth century. The article is based on the analysis of sources kept in the Archivio di Stato di Venezia (archival series: Inquisitori sopra l’amministrazione dei pubblici ruoli), containing full lists of military complements of regiments and companies. Based on the extant data, personal data of the soldiers and their physical characteristics (age, stature, colour of hair) are analysed. Analysis of the documents shows that in quantitative sense the denizens of Split made one of the most numerous groups of Croatians within Venetian infantry and cavalry. The analysis also shows that the soldiers from Split served in the units mostly commanded by prominent military commanders, who were by their origin also coming from Dalmatia and Boka, and it is evident that those units (regiments and companies) were extremely mobile and collocated all around Venetian Italian and overseas acquisitions. In the end of the article, it is concluded that problematics of the part played by the Croats in Venetian military units, in this particular case of the denizens of Split, due to the rich sources at our disposal, still leaves enough space for future research and scholarly discussion. As an appendix to the article is given full list of hitherto discovered soldiers from Split in the infantry overseas units of the armed forces of Venetian Republic.
U sjeni brojnih radova koji istražuju povijest Senja u 20. stoljeću stoji činjenica da je razdoblje Prvog svjetskog rata ostala relativno zanemarena i slabo obrađena tema koja još nije u dovoljnoj ...mjeri zaplijenila svjetlo historiografskog zanimanja. Nepostojanje lokalne arhivske građe i nedovoljno proučeni i objavljeni drugi izvori ističu se kao temeljni problemi s kojima se istraživač ovog razdoblja susreće. Međutim, iako su ratovi kao neizostavan dio povijesti kontinuirano dokumentirani u povijesnim vrelima, dio važnih informacija koji nije zapisan na papiru ostao je pohranjen u materijalnim tragovima čija pravilna interpretacija kroz diskurs relevantnih teorijskih okvira može ponuditi važan doprinos u analizi i rekonstrukciji različitih aspekata rata i ratovanja. Suvremena arheološka disciplina koja je fokusirana na proučavanje materijalnih ostataka proizašlih iz nekog sukoba razvijajući nove metode istraživanja koje omogućuju bolje razumijevanje ratnih događanja naziva se "arheologija sukoba" (conflict archaeology). Važan dio fokusa arheologije sukoba predstavljaju ostatci fortifikacija čija pojava nije isključivo vezana uz bojna polja. U radu se predstavlja dosad nepoznat segment senjske vojne baštine koji se odnosi na rovove koje je austrougarska vojska tijekom Prvog svjetskog rata sagradila u Parku senjskih književnika, na predjelu sv. Ambroz i oko tenis-igrališta na brdu Nehaj. Na temelju terenske prospekcije, obrade pisanih podataka i razmatranja sličnih primjera raspravlja se o povijesnom, prostornom i kronološkom kontekstu nastanka fortifikacija, a na primjeru rova u Parku senjskih književnika evaluira se njegova kulturno-povijesna važnost kao posljednjeg i izvrsno sačuvanog primjera ratne arhitekture Prvog svjetskog rata u Senju. Slijedom toga, naglašava se potreba očuvanja i zaštite objekta te otvara dijalog o mogućnostima i zahtjevima njegove obnove i valorizacije.
This article aims at comparing the coronavirus metaphorical image in the online media of China and the Russia. Metaphor is viewed as a cognitive frame within the discourse. The study was conducted on ...750 and 1000 headlines and leads of news reports about the coronavirus for the Chinese and Russian language. The results show that the virus image is based on similar metaphorical models, but the quantitative analysis of metaphors and metaphorical entailments indicate significant differences in the virus image that media creates. The coronavirus image in the PRC media mainly represents as an enemy which should be fought, and can be defeated, what helps to cool down public opinion. The Russian media discourse treats the coronavirus as a surprise enemy that is dangerous, and it is not clear “how it can be won”.
