Studija analizira vladarske prihode Kraljevine Ugarske u 11. stoljeću, bilo da se radi o dohocima u naravi ili u novcu. Struktura vladarskih prihoda uspostavljena je već u doba Stjepana I., a tijekom ...11. stoljeća mogu se primijetiti samo manje promjene, tako da studija analizira različite prihode isključivo kao dijelove jedinstvenog sustava: carine, naplata poreza, prihodi od kovanja novca i rudarenja plemenitih metala i soli. Studija završava ispitivanjem povremenih dohodaka na koje je vladar imao pravo, poput dijela novčanih kazni i darova.
In Chinese Philosophy at European Universities, Professor Defoort criticizes the institutional place of Chinese and non-Western studies at European universities. In order to demonstrate the problem, ...she describes the situation at the KU Leuven Department of History and its Institute of Philosophy of which the author's proud to be a staff member. Regarding many of the important issues Defoort raises, he do not feel sufficiently competent to respond. Professor Defoort's general complaint is that there is too deep an institutional divide in Europe between area- and language-focused studies of the non-West on the one hand and the social sciences or other humanities on the other. To insist on the independence of philosophy as a conversation is not to say that hiring a non-Western expert or including mandatory courses on non-Western philosophy as Professor Defoort recommends would endanger that independence. Surely there is no lack of topics about which present-day philosophers do not very well know what to say.
Imagine: the Western world falls apart under political, financial, and social pressure. One result is that all funding for philosophy is suspended and diverted to STEM courses (science, technology, ...engineering, and mathematics). Politicians in the US and Europe, along with their voters, declare the whole tradition of philosophy a total fiasco for its inability to prevent the crisis or to show a way out. Because of this lack of funding and respect, philosophy no longer exists as an academic discipline in the mid-twenty-first century, but only as a private hobby of maladjusted, wealthy eccentrics. This fictive story could go on. But anyone in the field of non-Western philosophy can enhance this thought experiment with examples from his or her current predicament. Therefore, the author's appeal to outside pressure is not only a mild form of political correction but, more importantly, an appreciation of occasional intrusions in the conversation.
The multitalented Carine Tardieu is an award-winning writer-director of short films and features, working in both television and cinema, as well as being an acclaimed children's novelist. Formatively ...inspired by Roald Dahl's more outlandish writings, after fitful studies in psychology and nursing, Tardieu found her vocation as a highly media-literate storyteller, exploring the inner lives of adolescents both mesmerized and frustrated by the bizarre adult world around them. Initially Tardieu conceived of her nonrealist narratives, whether words or images, primarily as a way of transcribing her youthful fantasies and dreams, to distill a solitary childhood consumed by her escapist passions: devouring novels and films. Central to this approach, though, is Tardieu's stylized intertextuality, representing traumatic memories on-screen via legacy formats and personal archives.
FASHION The exclusive capsule collection of seven hosiery styles will launch in September in occasion of the Italian brand's 90th anniversary. ...the former Vogue Paris editor in chief, founder of CR ...Fashion Book - who recently turned entrepreneur with her own label Carine Roitfeld Paris - has collaborated with Pierre Mantoux to create an exclusive capsule collection of seven hosiery styles, which will be launched in September on the occasion of the 90th anniversary of Pierre Mantoux. Each little detail required attention and precision, from the choice of the right fabric to the exact colors and elastics."
