From Slovenia to Egypt
Aleksandrinstvo, the women migration from a small European country to prosperous Egypt (1870-1950) brought with it dramatic changes in the role of women and men, in the value placed on women's work within the traditional economy and within the internal dynamics of their society of origin, both at the level of families and the wider community as well as in the relationships between generations. This emigration had a profound impact on women's self-esteem and at the same time on the public image of migrants as non-conventional female characters whose reputation fluctuated between silent thankful adoration and loud moral condemnation. It is thus not surprising that the phenomenon was, for half a century, buried under a thick blanket of denial and traumatic memories, which this book is trying to finally remove.
Historièni seminar 9
Deveta knjiga Historičnega seminarja prinaša sedem razprav, ki se posvečajo zgodovini v najširšem smislu. Dejan Zadravec piše o omembah plemstva v župnijskih matičnih knjigah med Savo, Sotlo in Savinjo do leta 1770. Zgodovino in biografijo združuje prispevek Mojce Horvat o življenju prve mariborske zdravnice Klare Kukovec, zgodovinsko-etnološka študija Daše Koprivec pa izpostavlja uveljavljeno podobo aleksandrinke kot dojilje. Tri raziskave zgodovino povezujejo z umetnostjo - Gašper Cerkovnik se ukvarja s knjižnimi lesorezi Albrechta Dürerja in njegovega kroga, Katarina Šter poskuša pojasniti, kako je zvenela liturgična glasba v srednjeveški kartuziji Žiče, Alexis Bennett pa išče povezavo med filmsko glasbo in pojavom obujanja stare glasbe. Z metodološkega vidika se zgodovine loteva prispevek Miha Seručnika o uporabi sodobnih računalniških orodij pri obdelavi gradiva za zgodovinopisje.
Slovensko izseljenstvo v luči otroške izkušnje
Otroštvo v slovenskem izseljenstvu sodi med manj raziskane izseljenske teme. Knjiga ga poskuša osvetliti z zornih kotov različnih znanstvenih disciplin. Izhajajoč iz mnogovrstnosti zgodovinskih in kulturoloških definicij otrok ter kategorij otrok v izseljenstvu, predstavljenih v prvem, uvodnem delu knjige, so avtorje zanimala predvsem tista vprašanja, ki se jih dosedanje študije izrazito površno dotikajo ali pa so v njih sploh v celoti spregledana. Tako so v drugem delu knjige najprej pogledali na otroštvo v izseljenstvu, kot se odraža v slovenski izseljenski književnosti in medmrežnih vsebinah. Tretji del knjige se osredotoča na doslej v veliki meri prezrte vidike otroštva v n...
Slovensko izseljenstvo v luèi otroške izkušnje
Otroštvo v slovenskem izseljenstvu sodi med manj raziskane izseljenske teme, knjiga pa ga poskuša osvetliti z zornih kotov različnih znanstvenih disciplin. Izhajajoč iz mnogovrstnosti zgodovinskih in kulturoloških definicij otrok ter kategorij otrok v izseljenstvu, predstavljenih v prvem, uvodnem delu knjige, smo v drugem delu knjige najprej pogledali na otroštvo v izseljenstvu, kot se odraža v slovenski izseljenski književnosti in medmrežnih vsebinah. Tretji del knjige se osredotoča na manj raziskane vidike otroštva v nekaterih posebnih izseljenskih situacijah. Avtorice v svojih poglavjih namreč raziskujejo intimno doživljajske migrantske izkušnje otrok aleksandrink, izgnanih otrok in otrok diplomatov. Metodološko stičišče različnih disciplinarnih in avtorskih pristopov raziskave je predvsem v poskusu subjektivizacije predmeta obravnave, oprtem tudi na čim različnejša osebna pričevanja.

Sex Work in Colonial Egypt
In the early 20th century Cairo was a vibrant and booming global metropolis. The integration of Egypt into the global market had led to rapid urban growth and increased migration. As occupational prospects for women outside the family were limited, sex work became a prominent feature of the new modern city. However, the economic and social changes in Egypt ignited national anxieties about racial degeneration, social disorder and imperial decadence. Francesca Biancani argues here that this was a period of national crisis that became inscribed on the bodies on female sex workers. Based on a wide range of rare primary sources, including documents from court cases, reformist papers, police minut...

Museum Materialities
This is an innovative interdisciplinary book about objects and people within museums and galleries. It addresses fundamental issues of human sensory, emotional and aesthetic experience of objects. The chapters explore ways and contexts in which things and people mutually interact, and raise questions about how objects carry meaning and feeling, the distinctions between objects and persons, particular qualities of the museum as context for person-object engagements, and the active and embodied role of the museum visitor. Museum Materialities is divided into three sections – Objects, Engagements and Interpretations – and includes a foreword by Susan Pearce and an afterword by Howard Morphy...

Chaplaincy and Spiritual Care in Mental Health Settings
This edited collection about good practice for mental health chaplains and other related professionals looks at how spirituality is viewed across mental health fields. It identifies what mental health chaplaincy is, how mental health chaplaincy interacts with other organisations like the NHS, and what good practice means with examples of positive and fulfilling experiences in mental health settings. The chapters consider some of the main issues of working with the mental health community, such as the place of volunteers, the recovery process, religious diversity and patient safety. They are followed by uplifting case studies, including service user perspectives, to provide a valuable overall insight into mental health chaplaincy and its context in wider mental health services.
