U prilogu me zanima analiza mikrostrukture izabranih književnih tek-stova, dakle precizno odnosno pomno čitanje (engl. close reading), koje se smatra suprotnošću distant readingu, dakle analizi u ...pravilu većih količina teksta. Pomno čitanje načelno smatram prikladnom strategijom interpretacije teksta. Toj strategiji pripadaju i naoko banalne stvari, na primjer pitanje kakve je vrste odnos između povijesno dokumentiranih događaja i njihova književnog (fikcionalnog) oblikovanja u tekstu, kakvi su u književnom tekstu prostorni (u konkretnom primjeru Mari-bor i njegova topografija) i vremenski podaci (linearni ili rekurzivni). Nadalje ta strategija treba omogućiti točnije određivanje pripadnosti nekoj književnoj vrsti, na primjer ciklusu ili nekoj vrsti superteksta (ovdje romana-trilogije). Naposljetku će se prikazati kako se temeljno proturječje Maribora, njegova slovensko-njemačka prošlost, zrcali u Jančarovim romanima. Pritom nas zanimaju i procesi, motivi, slike, likovi, događaji ili čak mikrotekstovi oblikovani u Jančarovoj kratkoj prozi, koji se kasnije u romanima pojavljuju u novom kontekstu. Kao Jančarove ratne romane analizirat ćemo Severni sij (1984), To noč sem jo videl (2010) i In ljubezen tudi (2017).
Avtor v članku predstavi pomen in vlogo urbane kulturne politike ter investicij v kulturno infrastrukturo za urbano regeneracijo in revitalizacijo. V prvem delu prispevka je naveden teoretski okvir ...urbane regeneracije na osnovi kulture (ang. culture led urban regeneration). Še posebno je poudarjen pomen koncepta »ustvarjalno mesto« kot orodja za ekonomsko prestrukturiranje mest. V osrednjem delu članka avtor poda pregled, analizo in vrednotenje ciljev ter ukrepov urbane kulturne politike kot načina za urbano regeneracijo v izbranih slovenskih mestih Maribor, Nova Gorica in Ljubljana. Na osnovi pregleda in analize razvojnih dokumentov in politik ter izvedenih investicij v kulturno infrastrukturo avtor ovrednoti pričakovane učinke na urbano regeneracijo, ekonomsko prestrukturiranje in urbano revitalizacijo določenih urbanih območij. V vseh treh izbranih mestih je kultura prepoznana kot ključni dejavnik in način za urbano regeneracijo. Poglavitni pričakovani učinki investicij v kulturo in kulturno infrastrukturo so revitalizacija degradiranih urbanih območij, razvoj kulturnega turizma, izboljšana podoba mesta in višja kvaliteta bivanja za lokalno prebivalstvo.
The importance of urban cultural policy and investments in cultural infrastructure for urban regeneration and revitalization is presented in the paper. In the first part of the paper the theoretical framework of culture led urban regeneration is presented. The importance of concept of creative city for economic urban regeneration is highlighted. In the central part of the paper the author presents the general overview, analysis and evaluation of the goals and measures of urban cultural policy as a mean for urban regeneration in selected Slovene cities Maribor, Nova Gorica and Ljubljana. Based on analysis of strategic development documents and policies and finished investments in cultural infrastructure an impact on urban regeneration and revitalization of selected urban areas is evaluated. In all selected cities culture is recognized as an essential tool for urban regeneration. Main anticipated effects of investments in cultural infrastructure are revitalization of derelict urban areas, development of cultural tourism, better image of the city and improved quality of life for residents.
The first systematic geochemical survey of urban soil in the old industrial town of Maribor, Slovenia, was performed in 2016. Soil properties (pH, electrical conductivity, total carbon, organic ...matter) and 56 aqua-regia soluble elements were determined from 118 sampling sites. A relatively clear distinction between naturally and anthropogenically distributed elements was found by inspection of the spatial distribution of their highest levels and by applying Spearman rank correlation coefficients. The median levels of Cu, Pb and Zn in the soil are significantly higher than the corresponding Slovenian median levels. Their enrichment is typically found in industrialised zones and the old town centre, suggesting that the elevated levels are historical. In addition, current industrial activities, as well as road and rail traffic contribute to increased levels. Additionally, a few isolated locations with significant enrichment of several elements were identified. Widespread diffuse contamination was not identified. Spatial distribution patterns of many elements (e.g., Co, Cr, Fe, V) are influenced by the geological setting of the area, as their highest soil levels are concentrated at the foot of the igneous-metamorphic Pohorje Mountains.
•First systematic topsoil geochemical survey of urban area of Maribor•Levels of 56 elements and soil properties (pH, EC, TC, TOC, SOM) are presented.•Cu, Pb and Zn show the highest spatial variability.•Cu, Pb and Zn enrichments are typical for industrial zones and old town centre.
Prispevek obravnava mesto v nočnem času. Posebnost obravnavane tematike je časovna razsežnost prostora ter območja – kraji, ki »živijo« ponoči. Noč ima ekonomsko, kulturno, oblikovno in socialno ...vsebino in prav te lastnosti določajo spoznavanje mesta v nočnem času. Izpostavljene so naslednje teme: kraji potrošnje, kraji dela, kraji zabave, kraji nočne podobe mesta ter kraji družbeno nesprejemljivega, delikventnega vedenja. Empirični del se nanaša na mesto Maribor.
The article presents an overview of the literature on Maribor’s music history from the thirteenth century to the present day and highlights the problem of the organised archive material of various ...institutions. An analysis of current achievements reveals gaps in our knowledge of the sections of Maribor’s music history discussed to date and suggests areas for further research.
