Extractions: Email Gwydion Two new groups of people emerge in Central Europe during the late Neolithic (New Stone Age) period, one certainly immigrant. Each group may be distinguished archaeologically by characteristic artifacts found in their respective burial sites. One was a Bell Beaker or drinking vessel. We now refer to this group as the Beaker folk. There is still some doubt as to the origins of the Beaker folk, some say Iberia, and some say Central Europe itself. Never-the-less it is believed that they emerge as an independent cultural group around 3000 B.C.E.. The second group is characterized by a perforated battle-axe of stone. Similarly, we now refer to this group as the Battle-Axe folk. Evidence points towards origins in the steppe-lands of southern Russia, between the Caucasus and the Carpathian mountains. The Battle-Axe folk may be attributed with the initial spread of the Indo-European group of languages. (see diagram) The Indo-European group of languages encompasses most of those current in present-day Europe. In Central Europe the Beaker folk and Battle-Axe folk fused to become one European people. Shortly thereafter began the Bronze Age in Europe. It is unclear whether the arrival of the two groups influenced the arrival of the Bronze Age or not. Many think that contact with the Mediterranean and beyond may have influenced this.

Extractions: Search Options Help Site Map Cultivate Web Site Search Home Current Issue Index of Back Issues Issue 5 Home ... Misc. By Gabriele Scali, Flavio Tariffi, Stefano Cuomo, Hub Kockelkorn, Dominique DeLouis and George Mallen - October 2001 OpenHeritage [ ] is a research project funded under the Fifth Framework Programme (Jan 2001 - Dec 2002) aiming to create an IT infrastructure and service to improve access to collections information held by regional museums and galleries. The collections of regionally distributed smaller museums will thus be as attractive and accessible as the larger, better known, museum collections. This "cultural driven" economy could give a significant contribution to the local economic development enabling the enrichment of local touristic and cultural assets. It has been pointed out by several surveys that the application of technological solutions to memory institutions in fields such as the multimedia management and valorisation of museum and library collections is failing to express substantive and sustainable economic results for a number of reasons. The main being the lack of a self-supporting economic model for the promotion and exploitation of Cultural Heritage through ICT, and the excessive "technology push" in the use of virtualisation, to the expense of a sound understanding of the global vs. local processes. The result is the improper use of innovation often deployed in an self-referential way.

Extractions: Beitrag versenden Eingangsdatum: Dear Colleagues, I am doing research on romantic love in European culture, namely the sort of love that includes distance and suffering, sometimes to the extent of death. A commonplace, widespread in low and high culture, asserts that Europeans have developed this type of love, and given it an outstanding role in their system of values, more than any other people in the world, actually exclusively. I want to challenge this assumption, but I would also like to investigate historically how "mixed couples" lived the question of belonging to different European countries or to Europe and other continents. A field of particular interest in this perspective is represented by love relationships between people of different cultures, continents, and religious confessions. Besides novels, essays, newspapers, I would like to take into consideration personal documents, like letters and diaries as well as individual memories. The research deals with the origins of romantic love in the XIX century as a preliminary step, but it will focus on the years 1930-50 as a central period. For comparison with the rest of my material, it would be particularly desirable that the letters had some connection with France. Would you happen to know of the existence of any love letters, both published and unpublished? All comments and suggestions you might possibly have would be much appreciated.

Extractions: home publications review no.27 > dossier network membership members contact ... directories Dossier Culturelink review, no.27/April 1999 - contents imprint archive European Culture An advisory committee of more than fifty representatives of scientific and scholarly institutions and universities from all over Europe encouraged Enrique Banús, Director of the Centre for European Studies of the University of Navarra, to try to realize an unorthodox idea: to fully open the approaches to all the phenomena of European culture - historical and current, theoretical and practical - in order to stimulate the processes of cultural integration of the hitherto divided continent. This effort has so far resulted in a very positive response and several impressive volumes of the proceedings of the first four conferences on 'European Culture'. Some forty topics on the programme of the Fifth Conference covered a wide thematic range and provided a coherent yet flexible framework for a lively participation and fluctuation of the participants. It is difficult to get a full idea of the effects of such an open-design conference, working simultaneously in a number of different thematic sections. There is no doubt, however, that the Fifth Conference on 'European Culture' held in Pamplona, Spain, 28-31 October 1998 showed that this effort was guided by a genuine democratic desire for a new Europe, in the spirit of openness to all European, and not only European, issues.

Extractions: Maurizio Viroli, Politics The program has two purposes: to deepen students' understanding of European civilization and to strengthen their command of cultural interpretation. It brings together faculty and undergraduates from several departments in a common inquiry into the way people order reality, make sense of life, and communicate meaning. In order to reduce those problems to manageable proportions, they are studied in seminars on specific themes in European history, literature, art, and philosophy. ECS 209 Cultural Interpretation (also HUM 209) Fall LA An introduction to the theory and practice of cultural interpretation as developed in philosophy, social and political thought, anthropology, and literary criticism. The course will stress the way people organize reality and make sense of life through the use of symbolic systems. Two lectures, one preceptorial.

To Be (or Not To Be) Central european culture and Politics in 20th Century Centraland Eastern Europe Professor Aleksander Fiut Email xxfiut@filon.filg.uj
http://www.ces.uj.edu.pl/fiut/culture.htm

Extractions: The course is addressed to graduate students interested in contemporary Eastern European literature and culture. It is exclusively based on English translations and does not require a knowledge of the Polish language. The course analyses reciprocal relations between literature, sociology, politics and anthropology in order to present various self-portraits of the nations whose cultural identity has been endangered by their historical experience. Since Nazism and communism shook the traditional system of values, many people have been forced once again to ask themselves a question "Who am I?" This search for self-definition is particularly interesting in Eastern Europe as it has led some of its writers to try different artistic and philosophical approaches which elucidate the whole European cultural tradition from a new angle.
Kovac Lab - European Culture In The Global Conflict Of Cultures: A View Of A Bio
european culture in the global conflict of cultures a view of a biologistLadislav Kovác. 4. Evolutionary superiority of european culture.
http://www.fns.uniba.sk/~kbi/kovlab/culture.htm

Extractions: The contemporary man has been formed by two distinct evolutions: biological and cultural evolutions. The study of man as a product of biological evolution is the subject of natural sciences, the study of what cultural evolution has made of man and how it has tremendously expanded man's environment is the subject of cultural sciences. At such a "division of labour", to make culture a subject of exploration by biologists may appear an illegitimate intrusion of one of natural sciences into a domain out of its competence. It is not so: culture is deeply rooted in human biology (1). Just as most incisive comprehension of complex biological phenomena is being reached by studying their roots at the elementary, molecular, level (hence, in the domain of physics and chemistry), the deepest insight into cultural phenomena may be achieved by analysing their primary, and essential, biological basis (hence, in the domain of biology).

Extractions: Current Travel News Back Issues menu Return Home By Rick Steves The majestic Via del Corso boulevard is packed with strolling Romans. Tourists are often content to "experience" the art and culture of Europe in museums and on stage. But a true traveler's goal is to be engulfed in a living culture, to enjoy it in situ —the art history term for "on location." Here's a report written in Rome, where my wife, Anne, and I savored the end of the Christmas season. The magic of being "on location" strikes us as we look around. We are the only non-Italians in a boulevard packed with strolling locals. Everyone is making the scene in fancy furs and designer scarves along Via del Corso. Mass en masse. Anne Steves poses for a picture with the pontiff. Buon Anno (Happy New Year) to their pope, and noisy teenagers from Mexico screaming "Viva Meh-hee-ko"—wait for John Paul II to appear from the window of his study overlooking the square. Anne and I stand in the shadow of an Egyptian obelisk that marks the center of the square. It's the same obelisk Peter saw, the day he was crucified here, 2,000 years ago, and the same obelisk medieval pilgrims set their weary sights on as their treks worked up to a Vatican finale.
