Using of Archives in Scientific Purposes: the Archives of Yugoslavia

Archival documentation of the central state authorities is according to its categorization the first class historic source and as such inevitable in scientific research of historic time that it refers to. The Archives of Yugoslavia, former state archive and today common cultural heritage is unavoidable spot for various researchers. For the purpose of qualitative appraisal, categorization, research work and publishing of cultural heritage entrusted to the Archives of Yugoslavia, establishment of scientific department is necessary. This department will essentially contribute to the improvement of complete archival activity.

Is Gypsum External Rendering Possible? The Use of Gypsum Mortar for Rendering Historic Façades of Valencia's City Centre

Valencia is a city located in the East of Spain by the Mediterranean Sea. It has a huge historic centre with ancient winding streets that contains buildings with a singular architectural heritage. The buildings’ façades are protected by a traditional external rendering, sometimes in bad state of conservation or modified or substituted in restoration works. The study carried out on historic renderings in Valencia points out the great employment of gypsum mortar or gypsum-lime mortar, among other peculiarities. Gypsum external rendering is one of the many uses for gypsum mortars in Valencia traditional architecture. This fact contradicts the general belief of the exclusive use of lime mortars for rendering a façade. The knowledge of the characteristics of historic mortars will allow us to implement a proper restoration work of architectural heritage with suitable mortars, as it is essential to guarantee the adherence and compatibility of any repair.

The First Great Patriotic War: Spanish Communists and Nationalism, 1936–1939*

A small advertisement in the first issue ofEspaña Popular, a weekly journal begun in February 1940 and edited by Spanish communists in exile, announced that it would be publishing chapters ofThe Terror of 1824.This 1877 novel by Benito Pérez Galdós (1843–1920) was part of the second series of hisNational Episodesand served as a literary standard for reinforcing the master narrative of Spanish liberal nationalism at the turn of the century. Spanish communists consideredThe Terror of 1824a representative work of common patriotic heritage that should be preserved and publicized among their followers. Built around the absolutist repression of liberals after the anti-Napoleonic War in Spain, the novel was given an updated political meaning. An implicit parallel was traced between the fate of nineteenth-century liberals and the recent exile of Spanish communists, with the former cast as the progressive forerunners of the twentieth-century freedom fighters in Spain. This was coherent with the Republican and socialist interpretation of the Spanish history of that period.

Questioning in simulated accountant–client consultations: Exploring implications for ESP teaching

The field of accountancy plays a vital role in the financial health of modern-day economies. It also attracts very large numbers of students, many for whom English is not their first language, who train in a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate programs at English-medium universities. Yet, surprisingly, the discourse of accountants has been under-reported in the ESP literature (Burns & Moore, 2007a). This paper reports research investigating spoken accounting discourse derived from simulated accountant–client consultations. It draws on the work of Drew and Heritage (1992), in which questioning is identified as a key discursive feature in institutional talk, and also the more recent work reported in Heritage and Maynard (2006), in which the complexity of the formulation of questions and responses is revealed in doctor–patient consultations. The paper discusses the use of simulations in cases where access to actual workplace settings by ESP teachers is unattainable, as well as the usefulness of the interactional data these simulations generate. The paper reports a questioning typology, derived from the data, showing six typical question types found in advice-giving simulated encounters in accountant–client taxation-based consultations: information; clarification; client-specified; backchannel; discourse-related; and interpersonal. The paper concludes with a discussion of the implications of this research for ESP teaching.

A STUDY ON DEVELOPMENT PROCESS OF STRUCTURAL TECHNIQUES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES IN KHMER BRICK ARCHITECTURE

As a contribution, this paper is aimed as 2 points mentioned bellowed: (1)To understand more clearly the development process of Structural Technique of wall and roof parts in Khmer brick architecture. (2)To clarify the Characteristics of Construction Technology, for example the weak point . cause of collapse, in order to contribute to the conservation and restoration work of Khmer cultural heritage. Based on investigation's results, this study makes it possible to contribute partly in reconsidering the chronology of Khmer historical architecture. The result of the development process of Structural Techniques and the Characteristics of Construction Technologies in Khmer brick architecture could be classified in to three periods of time. The last period from late 9th to late 10th century could be considered as the rational technology period of Khmer's Brick temple architecture.

SAVE Britain's Heritage and the Amenity Societies

Effective conservation depends upon a committed, educated and inspired voluntary sector, capable of handling casework on a daily basis, reacting to urgent threats and undertaking or commissioning research projects as circumstances demand. SAVE Britain's Heritage is part of this movement; yet it is distinct in its methods. It is long established but unconventional, playing its role in a bold fashion now recognized as the hallmark of its operations. Since SAVE's founding in 1975, threats to the historic environment have become ever greater and more sophisticated, prompting SAVE (and the amenity movement as a whole) to become ever more professional and effective with their resources. As new threats emerge, SAVE and other amenity bodies incur greater workloads in responding to development proposals and in educating and informing decision-makers and the public. This paper first considers the value and role of amenity societies generally before exploring the work of SAVE Britain's Heritage, and the manner in which it applies its ideas, convictions and resources.

Microanalytical Characterization of Art-Work Materials: Spatially Resolved Techniques

This study presents the application of lateral (SEM/EDX, SAM, SIMS) and vertical (SAM, XPS, SIMS) high resolution techniques on materials in art- work of cultural heritage. Emphasis will be placed on how such techniques are now indispensable in a science-based approach to the characterization of materials and the rationalization of their degradation, this in itself being essential for conservation and useful for a clearer understanding of the artistic techniques used in the past.
