Razprava predstavlja značilnosti nemškega časnika Görzer Wochenblatt, s posebnim poudarkom na njegovi politično-programski usmeritvi. List, ki je tedensko izhajal leta 1867, preden se je z ...začetkom leta 1868 preoblikoval v dvakrat tedensko izhajajoči Görzer Zeitung, predstavlja prvi nemški časopis v Gorici. V prvem delu članka so predstavljeni začetki nemške publicistike na Goriškem in značilnosti tamkajšnje nemške skupnosti. V nadaljevanju razprava obravnava začetek izhajanja Goriškega tednika, njegove vsebinske značilnosti in pro- gramsko usmeritev. Zadnji del prispevka je posvečen recepciji novega nemškega časnika s strani slovenskega tabora, predvsem polemiki, ki se je ob tem razvila med goriško Domovino in celovškim Slovencem. V polemiko se je aktivno vključil tudi Görzer Wochenblatt, ob čemer je uredništvo podalo svoj pogled na mednacionalne odnose na Goriškem.
U članku se donose nova saznanja o pokroviteljima širenja pobožnosti sv. Margarete Kortonske u sjevernojadranskoj Hrvatskoj te vjerskim običajima koje prate i podupiru slikarske narudžbe s prikazom ...svetice u drugoj polovini 18. stoljeća. Ustanovljen je predložak i pratip kompozicije za slikarske redakcije iz Senja, Rijeke i Pazina. Dosad neobjavljeno riječko platno pripisuje se J. M. Lichtenreiteru, a analize likovnih, stilskih i ikonografskih obilježja slika A. Parolija iz Senja i L. Kecheisena iz Pazina dopunjene su novim podacima i zapažanjima.
The study analyzes the spatial fragmentation in the Slovenian settlement area in Italy and highlights assimilation and demographic processes that exert influence on the Slovenian-speaking minority. ...The work builds on the current status of research and is based on official data, their evaluation through qualitative investigations as well as on further results of own research on site. The Slovenian-language population in Friuli Venezia Giulia is currently estimated at about 46,000 people. The main settlement area is the eastern border zone of this region, which is characterized by different cultural and regional identities. While the Slovenian-speaking population of Friuli (Val Canale and Slavia) focuses more on its cultural and regional distinctions, the majority of the Slovenian-language group in Venezia Giulia considers itself a “national minority.” Thus, the overall assessment of the possible future of the Slovenian-language group varies thus from region to region.
Rosemary, Rosmarinus officinalis L. is a perennial evergreen undershrub belongs to the family Lamiaceae and traditionally used as a spice, medicine to enhance cognitive ability, reducing stress, ...insomnia, and respiratory system diseases. Leaves found to be rich in essential oil, widely used in aromatherapy, as a natural antimicrobial agent, used as a pesticide and deer repellant. Though rosemary is a common garden herb in the Mid-west, there was a need to commercialize the cultivation through extraction and quality analysis of essential oil. Thus, an investigation was carried out to study the quality of essential oil content and chemotype variability in two cultivars of organically grown rosemary, R. officinalis var. albiflorus (French type) and R. officinalis var. Gorizia (Italian type) in Iowa by using a gas chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector (GC-FID). Steam distillation of French type herb yielded higher essential oil content (1.38 %) on a fresh weight basis as compared to Italian rosemary (1.25 %). Chromatographic analysis of essential oils of both the varieties showed an enormous variation in volatile components. French type showed higher α-pinene (37.5%), 1,8-cineole (15.69 %), verbenone (6.61 %) and camphene (4.64 %) however, Italian type yielded elevated 1,8-cineole (23.39 %), α-pinene (13.14 %), camphor (13.02 %) and camphene (6.54 %).
We have digitised a corpus of Italian newspapers published in 1873-1914 in Gorizia, the county town of an area in the North Adriatic at the crossroad of the Latin, Slavic and Germanic civilizations, ...then part of the Habsburg Empire and now divided between Italy and Slovenia. This new corpus (of 47,466 pages) is analysed along with a comparable set of local Slovenian newspapers, already digitised by the Slovenian National Library. This large and multilingual effort in digital humanities reveals the statistical traces of events and ideas that shaped a remarkable place and period. The emerging picture is one of rapid cultural, social and technological transformation, and of rising national awareness, combining the larger European pattern with uniquely local aspects.
•Advantages of integral planning of recreational areas for urban population on both sides of the Italian-Slovenian border.•Landscape ecology findings support the preservation of the spatial ...distribution of key urban green areas.•Urban forests, parks and green corridors form an indispensable pattern of a green urban network connecting both cities.•Old maps and satellite images are suitable tools in defining the primal structure of forests.
The provision of health and well-being is one of the fundamental tasks of urban green infrastructure. This requires a new estimation of the strategic distribution and accessibility of green areas. Gorizia and Nova Gorica are two cities lying next to each other on either side of the border between Italy and Slovenia. Due to political circumstances, they developed independently, which applies to their green areas as well. Urban city areas and other land cover classes were extracted from the CORINE Land Cover map; the digital data were processed using ArcGIS. At the landscape hierarchical level, the importance of natural vegetation remnants was assessed based on current land use maps. Forest patches, hedgerows, remnants of natural vegetation, and spontaneous afforestation on abandoned agricultural lands were detected and delineated using CNES digital images and digital orthophoto images. The green areas positioned in the two interior city areas were delineated separately according to data on the two cities’ green areas. We estimated the forest continuum separately, based on the oldest cartographic sources from the end of the 18th century, the Franziscean cadastre from the early 19th century, and the Italian cadastre from 1940. We estimated the interior or core area of the forest patches based on studies of habitat fragmentation and the depth of the forest edge. Our research theory is based on the proven sustainability of indispensable spatial patterns emerging from landscape ecology that are especially necessary in altered (rural, urban) landscapes. Our results show that the most important pattern of green areas supporting the well-being of both cities’ inhabitants can be achieved by the mutual development of the two major urban forests, each situated in one of the cities, in addition to riparian corridors and bits of nature represented by public parks. Collaborative planning between the two cities would enhance common benefits, including future economic and social influences and innovations.
