  • metal technology in late antiquity a Bibliographic Note
    Late Antique Archaeology, 2008
    Co-Authors: Nathalie Kellens
    Abstract:

    Research into metal technology in Late Antiquity has arguably been neglected. Recent interest in late antique metal technology has not led to an even coverage of all geographical regions and chronological periods. Scientific analyses of metal finds and related (waste) products have resulted in a wide range of geological, geochemical and geophysical observations, related to mining provenance and production/working processes. General processes and techniques in copper, bronze and brass working were practised throughout Antiquity, such as hammering, casting, embossing, chasing, engraving, inlaying, enamelling and gilding. On a general level, the studies of Boulaika and Hofmann, although over 30 years old, offer a superb overview of the provenance, use and technology of lead and its alloys in Antiquity. Archaeological remains and structures deriving from smelting and metalworking are poorly preserved and often neglected, or simply not recognised by field archaeologists. Keywords: archaeologists; brass; bronze; copper; Late Antiquity; metal technology

  • glass technology in late antiquity a Bibliographic Note
    Late Antique Archaeology, 2008
    Co-Authors: Veerle Lauwers
    Abstract:

    Studies of late antique glass tend to fall into two groups: those which concentrate on the geochemical component; and typological/chronological works. Antikes Glas describes the evolution of glass technology and typology, giving the reader a clear idea of how mankind learned to handle this vitreous material. During the last 15 years, the late antique period has attracted much attention within glass studies. Re-cycling was most probably based on the re-melting of the waste produced by the glass workshop itself, hence the small quantity of moils and knock-off that tend to be found, and the distinctive geochemical data that have been gathered. Bearing in mind that there is evidence for the existence of such trade, there must have been a demand for glass sherds (especially in Late Antiquity and the Early Medieval period). Keywords: glass studies; glass technology; glass workshop; Late Antiquity

  • women poetry from northern nigeria a Bibliographic Note
    Gender and behaviour, 2010
    Co-Authors: Ismail Bala
    Abstract:

    Many critics have decried what is often called “the zero presence” of the female voice in Nigerian poetry: Nigerian female writers trail behind their male counterparts for a number of reasons (literary, historical and cultural). This is more pronounced if not more acute in Northern Nigeria, where literature of English expression is slow in evolving, compared to other parts of the country. Poetry of English expression by women from Northern Nigeria is indeed young, and is written in a tradition that is not only new but developing. This paper is a preliminary bibliography of the few collections of poetry in English (or English translation) by women from Northern Nigeria.

Master thesis. Charles University, Faculty of Social Sciences, Institute of Security Studies. Mgr. Tomáš Kučera, Ph.D. Abstract Hybrid warfare has achieved notoriety of being a buzzword attempting to explain the changes in the modern warfare that blur the lines between war and peace, conventional and irregular warfare. Despite its definitional shortcomings, it made its way into the official discourse of the politicians commenting on the conflict in Ukraine and Russia's involvement in it, which did not add clarity. This thesis aims to bring a Ukrainian perspective to the discussion, and it attempts to provide a deep interpretation of sufficiently...Department of Security StudiesKatedra bezpečnostních studiíFakulta sociálních vědFaculty of Social Science
