Dear All (III.)

  • Categories: Art

Monografie je třetím svazkem edice zabývající se korespondencí Bohuslava Martinů s jeho rodinou v Poličce. Tento svazek obsahuje 56 korespondenčních dokumentů z let 1934 a 1935. Jedná se o korespondenci jednostrannou, dochovaly se pouze dopisy B. Martinů adresované rodině. I přesto lze v těchto dokumentech nacházet unikátní autentická sdělení, v nichž sám Martinů komentuje svou životní i profesní cestu, aby své informace, záměry či postoje sděloval nejbližším rodinným příslušníkům, ale často jejich prostřednictvím i širšímu okruhu přátel v Poličce a v Československu. Dopisy jsou v české verzi předkládány v diplomatickém přepisu vče...

Shmuel Hugo Bergmann

In recent years, the interest on life and work of the Jewish writer, philosopher, mystic and politician Shmuel Hugo Bergmann (1883–1975) has perceptibly increased. Well-known as a protagonist of the famous "Prague Circle", Bergmann headed for Palestine in 1920, became the driving force for building the Jewish National Library in Jerusalem and finally advanced as first Rector of the Hebrew University. All his life, close ties to the Czech Republic remained. In the State of Israel, Bergmann became a leading philosopher and highly admired cultural figure. He himself showed great interest in world religions, mysticism, and Western esotericism. Bergmann also emerged as an important point of ref...

Information Sources in Law

The aim of each volume of this series Guides to Information Sources is to reduce the time which needs to be spent on patient searching and to recommend the best starting point and sources most likely to yield the desired information. The criteria for selection provide a way into a subject to those new to the field and assists in identifying major new or possibly unexplored sources to those who already have some acquaintance with it. The series attempts to achieve evaluation through a careful selection of sources and through the comments provided on those sources.

Illustrative electrical engineering in the primary school curriculum

Předložená monografie usiluje o přínos v oblasti výuky o elektrotechnice a zejména užití didaktických prostředků v podobě elektrotechnických stavebnic ve výuce současné školy, vymezením požadavků, které v souladu s cíli vyučovacího procesu a především s pedagogickou teorií jsou na tomto poli vyžadovány. V práci je shrnuta problematika elektrotechnických stavebnic z pohledu jejich aplikací v oblasti všeobecně pojatého technického vzdělávání, včetně formulace odpovědí na některé praktické problémy příslušné oborové didaktiky, jež jsou s nimi spojené. Součástí monografie jsou prezentovány výsledky v minulosti realizovaných výzkumných šetření.

Ethnic Diaspora Festivities in the Czech Republic

The publication reviews the festivities in the lives of immigrants who came to the Czech Republic after 1990 and who have since created new diasporas or established themselves as distinctive immigrant groups. Festivities are an important aspect of immigrants’ lives inside their social groups as they support the immigrants’ ethnic self-identification, strengthen their ties to their home country, and aid them in building a sense of belonging. The author elaborates on findings from research undertaken in various immigrant groups throughout the Czech Republic, focusing on the abandonment of festivities, their adaptation to the new environment, and the creation of new ones, while observing their social significance and cultural specificity.

Dynamics in GIscience

  • Publisher: Springer

This book is intended for researchers, practitioners and students who are interested in the current trends and want to make their GI applications and research dynamic. Time is the key element of contemporary GIS: mobile and wearable electronics, sensor networks, UAVs and other mobile snoopers, the IoT and many other resources produce a massive amount of data every minute, which is naturally located in space as well as in time. Time series data is transformed into almost (from the human perspective) continuous data streams, which require changes to the concept of spatial data recording, storage and manipulation. This book collects the latest innovative research presented at the GIS Ostrava 2017 conference held in 2017 in Ostrava, Czech Republic, under the auspices of EuroSDR and EuroGEO. The accepted papers cover various aspects of dynamics in GIscience, including spatiotemporal data analysis and modelling; spatial mobility data and trajectories; real-time geodata and real-time applications; dynamics in land use, land cover and urban development; visualisation of dynamics; open spatiotemporal data; crowdsourcing for spatiotemporal data and big spatiotemporal data.

Computational Thinking and How to Develop It in the Educational Process

The ongoing development of information and communication technologies, including their introduction into education, continues to place new demands on pupils and teachers of informatics subjects, who must be prepared to respond to this development. One of these requirements is to develop the computational thinking of pupils as an integral part of the competences they must possess in the context of a contemporary information society. The presented monograph has attempted to provide answers to some of the questions that focus on the extent to which the competences of pupils or students in digital literacy and computational thinking can be developed and how the use of these approaches and methods is perceived by teachers of informatics subjects.

Visions of the Village

Visions of the Village offers a nuanced account of the cultural history, political salience, and social resonances of Czech village operas, especially those by composers Bed%rich Smetana, Antonín Dvo%rák, and Leos Janáček. By examining music-critical writings, institutional and government records, letters, and other archival sources, Christopher Campo-Bowen examines how musical representations of the idealized village acquired and provided meaning for Czech audiences, serving as the basis for understandings of a wide range of sociocultural and political issues, including gender, class, nationalism, imperialism, ethnicity, and race. This book explores how operas like Smetana's The Bartere...
