Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans le contexte environnemental des hautes-terres et des iles écossaises, la relation entre l'homme et la faune fut très étroite ; les premiers groupes néolithiques s'installèrent en Ecosse, accompagnés de la plupart de leurs animaux domestiques et se virent rejoints par diverses ethnies, le plus souvent continentales (celtes, scandinaves). La structure sociale originale des highlands and islands, connue sous le nom de clan, entretint des liens particuliers, souvent en étroite interdépendance, avec ses animaux domestiques, sur lesquels reposait toute son economie pastorale, mais aussi avec les représentants de la faune sauvage (chasse et pêche) et certains animaux mythiques qui survivent encore de nos jours par l'intermédiaire des légendes. L'importance de l'économie pastorale dans la vie quotidienne des clans et la dépendance de l'homme par rapport a ses animaux domestiques furent telles que les bouleversements sociaux du 18e siècle entrainêrent la disparition des originalités de la société traditionnelle clanique des hautes-terres et iles d'Ecosse
Download or read book L Animal exemplaire au moyen ge Ve XVe si cle written by Jacques Berlioz and published by PU Rennes. This book was released on 1999 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Les animaux sont au Moyen Âge l'objet "d'attentions et de réflexions constantes" (J. Le Goff). Domestiqués, ils sont les auxiliaires essentiels de la vie matérielle et économique. Sauvages, ils alimentent l'imaginnaire. Les études sur les animaux au Moyen Âge se sont, ces dernières années, multipliées. Mais un aspect des rapports entre l'homme et l'animal demandait à être approfondi. Celui de "l'animal exemplaire". Comment les animaux furent-ils mis, au Moyen Âge, au service d'un discours didactique et moral ? Quels étaient leurs atouts dans l'économie de la persuasion ? Bref pourquoi une véritable ménagerie fut-elle convoquées quand il s'agissait de convaincre ? Autant de questions auxquelles veut répondre cet ouvrage. Sont interrogés pour cela les anecdotes exemplaires, les vies de saints, les textes encyclopédiques, la scolastique, les recueils de 'Distinctiones' (ou mots clés bibliques commentés) destinés aux prédicateurs, les textes juridiques. L'animal est aussi concrètement montré à l'œuvre, à travers le chat, le singe, l'escargot et le crapaud. Sont ici pris en compte la réalité historique et le rapport effectif, quotidien, entre homme et animal, loin de l'étude d'une symbolique animale détachée de toute historicité. Avec l'ouverture à d'autres cultures et religions, comme l'islam médiéval."
Download or read book Conceptual Basis Formalisations and Parameterization of the Stics Crop Model written by Nadine Brisson and published by Editions Quae. This book was released on 2009-01-19 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The STICS crop model has been developed since 1996 at INRA in collaboration with other research and technical institutes. The model syntheses, illustrates and concretizes an important part of the French agronomic knowledge as a point of view on the field and cropping systems working. The formalisations of the STICS crop model presented in this book can be considered as references used in the framework of crop sciences. The book arrangement relies on the way the model designs the crop-soil system functioning, each chapter being devoted to a set of important functions such as growth initiation, yield onset, water uptake, transformation of organic matter etc. One chapter deals with the cropping system and long term simulations and the final chapter is about the involvement of the user in terms of option choices and parameterization. If this book is mainly intended for scientists who use the STICS model, it can also be useful for agronomists, crop modellers, students and technicians looking for elementary formalizations of the crop-soil system functioning.

Download or read book Historical Archaeologies of Transhumance across Europe written by Eugene Costello and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transhumance is a form of pastoralism that has been practised around the world since animals were first domesticated. Such seasonal movements have formed an important aspect of many European farming systems for several thousand years, although they have declined markedly since the nineteenth century. Ethnographers and geographers have long been involved in recording transhumant practices, and in the last two decades archaeologists have started to add a new material dimension to the subject. This volume brings together recent advances in the study of European transhumance during historical times, from Sweden to Spain, Romania to Ireland, and beyond that even Newfoundland. While the focus is on the archaeology of seasonal sites used by shepherds and cowherds, the contributions exhibit a high degree of interdisciplinarity. Documentary, cartographic, ethnographic and palaeoecological evidence all play a part in the examination of seasonal movement and settlement in medieval and post-medieval landscapes. Notwithstanding the obvious diversity across Europe in terms of livestock, distances travelled and socio-economic context, an extended introduction to the volume shows that cross-cutting themes are now emerging, including mobility, gendered herding, collective land-use, the agency of non-elite people and competition for grazing and markets. The book will appeal not only to archaeologists, but to historians, geographers, ethnographers, palaeoecologists and anyone interested in rural lifeways across Europe.

Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

Download or read book Water Heritage written by Willem Willems and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-15 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water is vital for life, and its availability has been a concern for mankind throughout the ages. Its presence has always been ascertained in a variety of ways and the development of human society everywhere is connected with various forms of water management. Man also needed to manage water to find protection from its dangers and the need for that is increasing. In the coming decades, the impact of climate change is expected to intensify floods and droughts, affect groundwater resources, raise sea levels, increase pollution and enhance the frequency and magnitude of disasters. Societies around the world are challenged to adapt to these threats to ensure water security, economic prosperity and environmental and cultural sustainability. This book deals with the heritage of water management and the use that was made of water, as well as the impact of water management on heritage. An example of the former may be an ancient irrigation system in the Filipines or in the Middle East that still functions today, while the latter may reflect the importance of maintaining groundwater levels for the preservation of organic remains on archaeological sites or of wooden piles underneath standing buildings. In either case the papers in this book reflect the dynamic nature of water, and hence the equally dynamic relation between water management and heritage. This publication follows up on a Heritage and Water conference in Amsterdam, the first of its kind. Its main purpose is to credibly present the importance and value of heritage and historical experience for water and sustainable development, and vice versa, present the importance of water management for the protection of heritage. It presents evolving insights and concepts about Water and about Heritage from a variety of disciplines, policy and public perspectives illustrated with cases studies and aims to connect decision makers with experts such as engineers, archaeologists, historians, geographers, ecologist and landscape architects

Download or read book Images in Mind written by Deborah Tarn Steiner and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In archaic and classical Greece, statues played a constant role in people's religious, political, economic, aesthetic, and mental lives. Evidence of many kinds demonstrates that ancient Greeks thought about--and interacted with--statues in ways very different from our own. This book recovers ancient thinking about statues by approaching them through contemporary literary sources. It not only shows that ancient viewers conceived of images as more operative than aesthetic, but additionally reveals how poets and philosophers found in sculpture a practice ''good to think with.'' Deborah Tarn Steiner considers how Greek authors used images to ponder the relation of a copy to an original and of external appearance to inner reality. For these writers, a sculpture could straddle life and death, encode desire, or occasion reflection on their own act of producing a text. Many of the same sources also reveal how thinking about statues was reflected in the objects' everyday treatment. Viewing representations of gods and heroes as vessels hosting a living force, worshippers ritually washed, clothed, and fed them in order to elicit the numinous presence within. By reading the plastic and verbal sources together, this book offers new insights into classical texts while illuminating the practices surrounding the design, manufacture, and deployment of ancient images. Its argument that images are properly objects of cultural and social--rather than purely aesthetic--study will attract art historians, cultural historians, and anthropologists, as well as classicists.
