Abstract:
Abstract Treasure (Tibetan: gter ma) lineages are distinctive forms of visionary Buddhist practice found throughout the classical Tibetan literary world. Treasures are revealed by tertön (gter ston), Buddhist masters with karmic connections to the Tibetan past who have been preordained to recover treasures at the right time and place. There has been rich scholarship on the processes of treasure discovery and communities that have been inspired by treasure literature, but the publication and distribution histories of treasure texts have been comparatively understudied. Drawing on the work of historian Nile Green related to the mass production of Islamic texts produced in Mumbai that circulated through the modern Indian Ocean world, I will examine how the political and economic changes of the twentieth century impacted and transformed the promulgation of visionary literature in classical Tibetan language, and the circumstances that allowed for ‘printing enchantment’, and the power of the book, to remain intact.

Abstract:
Abstract A comprehensive project conducted over the past few years to locate and document every book printed in Ladino, revealed that between the years 1490–1960, nearly four thousand titles were published. In this article, I will show that many Ladino books were lost over the generations. Some of those missing books were referenced in assorted sources. Others did not come to researchers’ attention until fairly recently. This study contains several examples of Ladino books from the 16th century, which were lost and then rediscovered – due to the fact that their fragments were preserved in the Cairo Genizah or found in the bindings of antique books.

Abstract:
Books are an extremely significant part of our cultural heritage. For this reason visual propaganda on their behalf is very important, since so many of them are treasures in storage. And the problem of their low profile could be solved by organising temporary book displays and creating special museums for books. The Vladimir-Suzdal Museum in Russia is setting an award-winning example.

Abstract:
The four purposes for which one may need a book appraisal are: income tax and charitable presentation to institutions, insurance, buying and selling, and estate requirements. Some of the criteria used to determine whether it is worthwhile to obtain an appraisal of a book collection are: age, content, illustrations, place of publication, publisher, condition of the items, marginal notes, and previous owners. The evaluation of various items that may be donated to a synagogue or center library—English-language Judaica, Hebrew and Yiddish books, archival and primary source material—is also discussed.

AbstractThe idea of ecological boarding school is actually not a new idea in the of Islamic boarding school. Islamic boarding schools as the oldest educational institutions in Indonesia are already familiar with ecological studies, both in the fields of interpretation of the Qur'an, Hadith, Fiqh, and the yellow book which become the basis of their knowledge. However, it is still theoretical and has not yet fully implemented. This study uses library research in the form of searching the latest books, books and journals. This paper concludes that it is time for Islamic boarding schools to transform their scientific treasures, especially those related to ecology, into a real movement. Islamic boarding schools must return to their identity as agents of social change by utilizing the scientific treasures, their community and human resources they have by creating ecological boarding schools.

Abstract:
Modern and contemporary books, easily replaceable in the internet age, are weeded from collections and disposed of because of their poor quality materials and construction. For an art library, where obsolescence is rarely an issue, the 20th- and 21st-century book can be a problem. Rare and seminal works in our collections are crumbling because they are acidic or perhaps they just cannot withstand the handling (and photocopying). We have become alert to the conservation of books from the hand-press period, but do not always know what to do with recent publications, or we cannot afford to undertake the measures necessary. As the artist’s book as an art form reaches its 50th birthday, we highlight the conservation of one such volume, in hopes of opening up discussion about the care of our contemporary treasures.

Abstract:
Fool’s Gold is a collection of handmade books that illustrate selected Grimms’ fairy tales and offer an unexpected interpretation of the actions of the heroes. Each book displays a unique cover decoration, inspired by medieval European treasure bindings. Treasure bindings incorporate dimensional decorative elements such as gems, gold or other metalwork and often depict Christ's suffering. In a similar way, Fool's Gold beautifies the suffering of the protagonists using gold leaf, glass beads and lush illustrations. A traditional hidden fore-edge painting technique is used to reveal more scenes from each story. When the pages are fanned opened, the fore-edge paintings display the gruesome revenge the perceived heroes take upon the villains.

Abstract:
The things we have an intimate connection to, handle, collect, and move around with us, are treasures that we need to hold on to. They are important in coping with the balance of movement and stability in a fast-changing world. This project is an investigation of the relationship between people and objects through the making and handling of stones. I explore why and how we connect intimately with physical objects, how they become treasures to us and what it means. Through digging into the stones, connecting to their story of endurance, change and solidity, and eventually letting them go, I explore the role of touching and paying attention, in making and relating to objects and transformation. The stone objects are made from pieces of rock I have collected while travelling. All of them have been transformed by human hands before I picked them out, and many have been given out and then returned to me. Through this ongoing process of transformation and physical encounters, it is becoming clear to me that connection is not only about solidity and stillness, but also about being part of the transformation. Stone as a material is both solid and changing. I aim to make objects of stone that attract and encourage people to engage with them – to experience the pleasure and groundedness that slowing down, zooming in and getting in touch can offer.

Full text
Abstract:
Museums around the world possess hundreds of thousands of priceless objects, which have stories to tell about human history. While students and scholars study them, even the general public is interested in these stories. If there is a way to automate the information delivery system about these objects it will be of immense value, e.g. it will support students to study these objects and speed up research. Adaptive blended learning options are conceivable, which can perfectly merge digital analysis and onsite viewing. Thus, the preparation and post-processing of studied objects is just as conceivable as the adequate acquisition of information for on-site studies. Examples of such solutions would be mobile apps and computer software that can be used for history and archaeology education as well. However, it is important to identify these objects correctly in order to build such solutions. Computer vision technologies in artificial intelligence (AI) can be used for this. Therefore, this paper will show how AI-algorithms can be used for digital humanities in novel ways, such as for detecting museum treasures.

Esta dissertação estabelece um percurso regressivo desde as recentes polê-micas em torno da suposta censura de Caçadas de Pedrinho pelo Conselho Na-cional de Educação e até as primeiras histórias infantis escritas pelo escritor na década de 1920. A primeira parte do percurso esboça as tensões e conflitos em torno da imagem póstuma de Monteiro Lobato e do valor (positivo ou negativo) na segunda metade do século XX. Regredindo, a narrativa ultrapassa a morte do escritor (1948), enfoca sua relação com o público leitor e seu projeto para a litera-tura infantil brasileira no contraste com escritores contemporâneos como Adelina Lopes Vieira e Júlia Lopes de Almeida, Olavo Bilac, Coelho Neto e Manuel Bon-fim, Viriato Corrêa e João do Rio. Finalmente, analisa em detalhes algumas das principais reformulações nas histórias reunidas em Reinações de Narizinho. Du-rante o percurso constata-se a ausência de um estatuto literário consolidado para os livros infantis, a indistinção entre livros escolares e livros para crianças, e o conflito entre dois conceitos distintos de infância: um que valoriza a imaginação e a fantasia e outro que suprime esses aspectos dado o imperativo da colonização da alma infantil pelos valores morais e cívicos do mundo adulto. Concomitantemen-te, todo o trabalho se subordina à discussão central sobre os modos pelos quais os livros infantis se constituem em instrumentos de negociação da infância, e não apenas representações diretas da realidade social.
This dissertation establishes a regressive course from the recent controver-sies about the supposed censorship of the Caçadas de Pedrinho by the National Council of Education even the first children’s stories written by the author in the 1920’s. A first part of the trajectory sketch’s the tensions and conflicts about the post morten image of Monteiro Lobato and the value (positive or negative) on the second half of the 20th century. Going back, the narrative surpasses the death of the author (1948), focus the relationship with the readers and his project for a Bra-zilian infantile literature in a contrast with contemporary writers as Adelina Lopes Vieira and Júlia Lopes de Almeida, Olavo Bilac, Coelho Neto and Manuel Bonfim, Viriato Corrêa and João do Rio. Finally, analyses in detail some of the main reformulations in the assembled stories of Reinações de Narizinho. Along the way it is noticed the absence of a consolidated literary statute for children’s books, the indistinction between school’s and children’s books, and the conflict between two different concepts of infancy: one that values the imagination and fantasy and another that conceals these aspects given the imperative of coloniza-tion of the children’s souls by civic and moral values of the adult world. At the same time, all the work subordinates a central discussion about the ways children books constitutes in instruments of social negotiations of infancy, and not only representations of the same thing.

Abstract:

The relationship to food, whether on an individual or societal basis, carries with it potential for nourishment on multiple levels. A mindful, healthy connection to the sourcing, preparation, serving, and enjoyment of food can become a catalyst for inner transformation, psychologically and physiologically. Utilizing hermeneutic methodology, this thesis explores food in relation to the soul by examining historical and cultural practices and beliefs about food. Various works of literature and the writings of culinary aficionados are discussed, giving examples of savoring food and receiving deep nourishment. In addition, a heuristic approach is undertaken to demonstrate the influence food has had on this researcher by recording personal reflections on her life and on literature that include memorable stories about the healing power of food. Depth psychological practices and theory may be positively impacted by the results of this research, due to the far-reaching implications for both mind and body.

Abstract:
Museums are institutions that carry on the cultural and artistic treasures of societies to future generations. Economic social, cultural and philosophical thoughts in the world have changed the understanding of museology. At the beginning of the 20th century, modern architects brought new expansions to classical museum typology. In the 1970s, museums began to draw attention as the city's landmark and meeting points. Along with the museums, courtyards, squares and gardens, which are open spaces of museums, have also changed. By joining the city life, they became new social attraction centers. Museums and museum open space from Turkey and the world in the study areas, classified under the headings of traditional and contemporary, will be analyzed under the headings of form, style, material, elements of boundry, planting design, activities area, urban furniture, and function. In order to demonstrate the changing today’s museum’s open space; an analysis will be made using spatial experiences, observations, syntactic analysis technique. Study’s contribution to the literature will be determined by the design approaches of contemporary and traditional museum open spaces. As part of the museum identity and character, it will be pointed out that the open spaces of the museum are as important as the design of the museum buildings.

Abstract:
Cultural heritage represents a national treasure evolving from the culture and spirituality of people. Therefore, it must be continuously recovered, protected and developed by all generations as priceless heritage. Referring to the Romanian cultural heritage items that are placed in restoration, at present, some works have been done for partial or complete replacing of degraded materials, both as the result of ageing under atmospheric and biologic agents. The aim of this study is testing different samples of new leather and parchment under UV radiation in the 220-380nm domain, in order to simulate the accelerated destruction in photo-oxidative conditions. The following materials have been studied: book binding leather obtained from calf hide, tanned by different systems (vegetable or vegetable and chromium) and parchment obtained from different kinds of animals. The evolution of the chromatic characteristics (luminosity, shade and chroma) at different exposure time was quantified by the diffuse reflectance technique in visible domain range and CIE-Lab software. Based on the chromatic stability after UV exposure, the most stable types of leather and parchment have been selected for further applications in the restoration process of historical manuscripts and books' covers.

This paper presents an Academic Literacy course designed for first year students in our department. The course is based on a set of relevant reading materials and covers knowledge levels and classification systems, logical and physical library organization principles, physical and virtual search for publications, bibliographic citations and referencing methods and purposes. The paper describes two, out-of-class, activities related to the academic and public libraries in the information age. The first activity, the “Book Hunt”, organizes the students’ conceptions of the variety of functions being served and the impact of information technology on retrieving academic publications. Students’ response to a reflective assignment dealing with concepts and impressions is described. The second activity “Visiting a public library”, involves interviewing the librarian and writing a report on the structure and functions of the library. The paper discusses features of students’ reports and indicates the contribution of the activities to the students’ academic world view.

Abstract:
The tombs of the Pharonic kings in “valley of the kings”, Thebes, Egypt are famous for their unique wall paintings and structure. KV62, King Tutankhamen tomb, is the most famous because of the treasures it held intact for over three thousand years. This tomb originally designed for a non-royal personage nevertheless was used for royal burial, and possessed a nearly intact set of burial equipment. The tomb was forgotten and a group of Rameside workmen’s huts were built over it later in antiquity. The walls of the tomb were smoother but, except for burial chamber, were left undecorated. The burial chamber is decorated with scenes from the Opening of the Mouth ritual, Book of the Dead, and representations of the king with various deities. The current status of the tomb is very critical as pink stain and black fungus spots have spread over decorated walls due to excessive moisture content in the air. Small portion of this moisture came from the ancient offerings placed in the tomb such as vegetation, and also from the gypsum plaster on which the decoration was painted, which may not have been fully dry when the tomb was sealed, visitors activities led to extra moisture production inside the tomb, this would naturally lead to an increase of those pink spots and fungus activities. For this purpose and in pursue of restoration operation it was suggested to design and install a special ventilation system that would reduce the relative humidity inside the tomb to normally acceptable environment for artifacts. Since this situation is novel and unique, the present work pursues a research plan to design and utilize a CFD model to numerically model the flow pattern, heat transfer and humidity in the tomb. A commercial CFD codes are also used in order to simulate the indoor air conditions, air flow velocities, temperatures and relative humidity patterns. In the present investigation, this technique is used in a parametric study to select the most suitable airside system design that doesn’t affect the archaeological theme of the tomb and that provides lower air velocities around the wall paintings as well as lower air humidity all over the tomb.

Abstract:
This article is focused on analysis of the hypothesis of the local song folklore origins of the famous poetic phenomenon chuci (elegies/songs of Chu) that represents the literary heritage of the southern (Yangtze Basin) region of the Ancient China (the Zhou epoch, 11th–3rd centuries B. C.) and is associated with the emergence of the Chinese poetry. Although today the thesis about the folklore origins of chuci, or rather of the poetic pieces presented by the Chuci (Verses/Elegies of Chu, Songs of the South) collection, is generally accepted, the author argues that, first, during the 1st–7th centuries A. D. the chuci poetry was stable considered within the Chinese book knowledge to be created by exclusively the literary genius of Qu Yuan (4th–3rd centuries B. C.), the great poet of the Chu Kingdom (11th–3rd centuries B. C.). Secondly, the views on chuci as an autochthonous (“southern”) poetic tradition dating back to the local folk art emerged in the 12th–13th centuries and finally established itself in the Chinese literature studies of the first third of the 20th century, all these under the influence of the ideological processes, caused by synchronic historical and political events. Thirdly, although the existence of developed song-poetic folklore in Chu Kingdom seems quite permissible, it for some reason remained out of fixation by that day written sources, including transmitted texts and archaeological materials (epigraphic inscription and excavated manuscripts). Therefore, almost nothing is known as a matter of fact of the hypothetic Chu song folklore what makes it impossible to recognize its true influence on origins and further on evolution of the chuci tradition.
