    The paper aims to illustrate the “Onomasticon” database – Onomasticon (unipg.it) –, delving into both its scientific underpinnings and technical intricacies. Initially, a brief overview of the project\u27s genesis, its scientific rationale, and its envisioned applications will be provided. Subsequently, attention will be directed towards the technical aspects of the database, tracing its evolution from an informatics perspective. Lastly, perspectives between the historical investigation and computational resources will be offered. The "Onomasticon" database, started in 2008 for the occasion of the 700th anniversary ceremony of the University of Perugia, serves as a repository of research findings pertaining to the institution\u27s history of the University of Perugia and the students and professors who studied and taught there.With a focus on prosopographical studies, the database encompasses data on professors, students, courses, and the university\u27s evolution between the Middle Ages and the modern age. From a technical point of view, the essay will explain the transition from Onomasticon 1.0 to Onomasticon 2.0, which involved the transition from a relational data model to a graph structure, which improves flexibility and performance and offers the possibility of integrating historical data with external resources like authority files and online databases enriches its utility. Challenges for the future include ensuring data reliability, addressing interpretative aspects, and enhancing the linkage with external resources. In the current research context that increasingly focuses on interdisciplinarity, the Onomasticon project stands as a testament to the fruitful collaboration between historical research and computational resources, offering valuable insights into the longstanding history of the University

    Master P. and Dares the Phrygian: Is Prince Álmos The Hungarian Equivalent of Aeneas? The Gesta Hungarorum and the Troy-Romances in the Light of an Analysis of Some Textual Paralells

    This study examines Master P.’s use of two Latin Troy-romances: the “De Excidio Troiae Historia” attributed to the fictious Dares the Phrygian, and the so-called “Excidium Troiae”. Our purpose is to understand better the Notary’s attitude towards the Troy-romances. We make our observations via an analysis of certain quotations from these romances. We begin our paper with an introduction, which describes the context of these two romances, in the contemporary historical literature, and discusses their place and role, among the known written sources of the Anonymous Notary. Then, in the first chapter, we examine two citations in the Notary’s Prologus, which are adopted from the Prologus of the work of “Dares”. Their role is primarily to emphasize the Notary’s definition of the place of his work in the context of historiography of his age, but they also increase the credibility of his Gesta, as they call upon the authority of the prestigious Dares. In our second chapter, we analyse two textual borrowings from the Excidium Troiae. The first one takes place in the description of the election of Prince (“dux”) Álmos. The Notary quotes verbatim the text of the proclamation of Aeneas as a leader (“dux”), to describe the proclamation of Álmos. The use of this citation clearly alludes to the similarity of the two elections. Moreover, it supposes a parallel between the foundation of the Hungarian and Roman polities. It alludes also to the ancient Hungarians’ equality to the Trojans, and to the contemporary Hungarians’ equality to the Latin Christian peoples (for example the Franks), who had prestigious Trojan ancestry. The second borrowing from the Excidium Troiae is an allusion, in which little textual analogy can be observed. It draws parallel between the siege of the castle of Bihar [Bihor, RO], which concludes the Hungarians’ conquest of Pannonia, and the siege of Laurentina, which concludes Aeneas’ conquest of Latium. Its role is clearly to draw parallel between the conquests of the Hungarians and that of the Trojans. It supposes the same allusions as the quotation in the story of Álmos’ election. We make remarks on the fact, that Master P. uses allusions to, and quotations from the Excidium Troiae only up to a certain limit. We suppose that its cause is his deliberation to preserve the autonomy of his story, and emphasize the Hungarians’ own, independent values. Our main conclusion, is, that the Notary’s aim may have been to create a Hungarian prehistory, appropriate to the standards of “national” prehistories of his time. The use of the allusions to the Trojans and to Troy-romances was part of his efforts to reach this purpose. However, he wanted to create a history of the ancient Hungarians, who had had their own values in his eyes. So, he did not allow his story to become a Troy-romance of Hungarian subject

    A könyvmolyok olvasási és könyvvásárlási szokásainak vizsgálata

    THE AIM OF THE PAPER Reading is still a popular leisure activity, and the industry provides a constant supply of active readers. In this study, focusing on bookworms, i.e. the most active group of readers, we tried to assess their habits, needs, and most important reading-related experiences. METHODOLOGY Interest in reading has increased in recent years, so we examined the attitudes of 588 regular readers using a target group-oriented questionnaire survey. The opinions of the current reading community were primarily mapped using descriptive and cross-tabulation analyses, and their responses to open questions were tabulated and organized into word clouds. THE MOST IMPORTANT RESULTS Based on our research, the printed book is not becoming a victim of digitization, its fans support and consume it. In the case of bookworms, our results revealed that individual preferences can develop along several background variables and that it is extremely important to consider the habits of the newly involved young generations. The literature supports the idea that successful books and entertainment literature have a positive effect on the expansion of the group of bookworms. RECOMMENDATIONS The most important task for book publishers and distributors (but even for education or parents) is to monitor and follow the current trends, thus attracting more readers. Furthermore, they should be present on the market by developing a precisely targeted marketing strategy according to the expectations of groups, and should not consider it as a mass. Use the right buzzwords to acquire and maintain the market.A TANULMÁNY CÉLJA Az olvasás ma is a népszerű szabadidős tevékenységek közé tartozik, maga az iparág pedig folyamatos kínálattal elégíti ki az aktív olvasókat. Jelen tanulmányban a könyvmolyokra, azaz a legaktívabb olvasói csoportra koncentrálva igyekeztünk felmérni szokásaikat, igényeiket és az olvasáshoz kapcsolódó legfontosabb élményeiket. ALKALMAZOTT MÓDSZERTAN Az elmúlt években az olvasás iránti érdeklődés megnőtt, így célcsoport-orientált kérdőíves felmérés segítségével vizsgáltuk meg 588 rendszeres olvasó attitűdjeit. A vizsgálat során az aktuális olvasóközösség véleményét elsősorban leíró és kereszttáblás elemzésekkel térképeztük fel, továbbá nyitott kérdésekre adott válaszaikat tabulálva rendszereztük és szófelhőkbe rendeztük. LEGFONTOSABB EREDMÉNYEK Kutatásunk alapján elmondható, hogy a nyomtatott könyv egyelőre nem válik a digitalizáció áldozatává, rajongói támogatják, fogyasztják. Bár a könyvmolyok esetében a különböző elemzések hajlamosak az általánosításra, eredményeinkből kiderült, hogy számos háttérváltozó mentén alakulhatnak az egyes preferenciák, és az újonnan bevont, fiatal generációk szokásainak figyelembevétele kiemelten fontos. Ezenkívül a szakirodalmi háttérrel egyhangúlag támogatható azon elképzelés, miszerint a sikerkönyvek és általában a szórakoztató irodalom pozitív hatással van a könyvmolyok táborának bővülésére. GYAKORLATI JAVASLATOK A legfontosabb teendő a könyvkiadók és -forgalmazók, (de még akár az oktatás vagy a szülők) számára is, hogy az aktuális trendeket figyeljék és kövessék. Továbbá a célcsoportok elvárásai mentén pontosan célzott marketingstratégia kialakításával legyenek jelen a piacon, és ne tekintsék azt homogén egészként, még a szórakoztató vagy a szépirodalom egyes szegmensei mentén se. Javasolt, hogy alkalmazzák a megfelelő hívószavakat a piacszerzéshez, -megtartáshoz

    Az „Új Európai Rend“ a japán jogtörténti kutatásokban

    Get PDF
    Since 1933, National Socialist jurisprudence had been the subject of much interest and controversy among Japanese legal scholars. Even the Japanese Ministry of Justice examined and translated a series of National Socialist legislation and literature for reference purposes. During the National Socialist era, a young Japanese professor of law named Satoshi Nishimoto visited Germany. While studying in Munich, this scholar witnessed unprecedented activity in the field of Germanic legal history, which at that time was combined with geopolitics. After returning to Japan, he attempted to apply this method of legal history to his own country. However, these efforts ended in failure

    Carl Schmitt utazásai Magyarországra és a magyar jogi gondolkodásba

    Get PDF
    The article explores Carl Schmitt’s influence on Hungarian legal science and political public opinion, especially before 1945. On the one hand, it analyses which elements of Schmitt’s theories were discussed in Hungary and why the ‘Großraumlehre’, in particular, attracted significant interest. On the other hand, Schmitt’s two visits to Budapest (1942 and 1943) are briefly described, especially regarding his lecture on ‘The State of European Legal Science’, which was first published in Hungarian and contained connections with conservative-traditionalist Hungarian legal theory

    Antiszemitizmus a két világháború közötti Közép-Európában : Szemantika, társadalmi gyakorlat, politikai program Ausztriában és Szlovákiában a magyarországi összefonódások figyelembevételével

    This article analyses the most important trends in the history of anti-Semitism in Central Europe in the interwar period, with a focus on Austria and Czechoslovakia (until 1938), supplemented by Hungarian connections and an excursus into the period of the Slovakian state (1939–1945). The focus is on the areas of semantics (‘Judeo-Bolshevism’ and ambiguities of racism), social practice (Numerus Clausus and cultural ‘Judaization’) as well as political and legal programmes (‘solution to the Jewish question’ in the context of Catholicism). Additionally, the relationship between autochthonous forms of anti-Semitism and the role model function of Nazi Germany are analysed
