Po stopách keltojazyčných obyvatel Evropy: Irsko, Skotsko, Wales, Cornwall, ostrov Man a Bretaň
Hlavním cílem předkládané monografie bylo zmapování a srovnání aktuální situace keltojazyčných skupin ve Francii (Bretaň), Velké Británii (Cornwall, Wales, Skotsko), na ostrově Man a v Irské republice. Mezi hlavní zkoumané prvky patřilo zjišťování početnosti keltojazyčných skupin a porovnávání oficiálních údajů (například ze sčítání obyvatel) s neoficiálními údaji (například odhady spolků nebo vzdělávacích zařízení). Výzkum se dále zaměřoval na používání keltských jazyků jako jednoho z důležitých prvků etnické identity – zda se používá v každodenním styku, nakolik podléhá asimilaci, jaká specifika si jazyk zachoval...

The Vegetation of Egypt
This book is an attempt to compile and integrate the information documented by many botanists, both Egyptians and others, about the vegetation of Egypt. The first treatise on the flora of Egypt, by Petrus Forsskäl, was published in 1775. Records of the Egyptian flora made during the Napoleonic expedition to Egypt (1778-1801) were provided by AR. Delile from 1809 to 1812 (Kassas, 1981). The early beginning of ecological studies of the vegetation of Egypt extended to the mid-nineteenth century. Two traditions may be re cognized.
