Reason and Will in the Philosophical Thought of Thomas Aquinas
Cilj je ovoga rada analizirati čovjeka prema tomističkoj antropologiji, prikazujući jasnu sliku razuma i volje kao njegovih dviju specifičnih moći, te prema hijerarhijskom poretku materijalnih bića uspoređujući čovjeka s drugim živim bićima. U ovom radu korištena je metoda analize. U prvom poglavlju riječ je o Tominom životu i djelu, dok u drugom poglavlju analiziramo različite vrste duša: biljnu, životinjsku i ljudsku, te njihovu međusobnu razliku prema njima svojstvenim moćima. Nakon toga smo izložili razum kao važnu čovjekovu moć, dvije vrste spoznaje: osjetilnu i razumsku, te njihove međusobne razlike i proces apstrakcije u kojem obje sudjeluju. U posljednjem poglavlju analiziramo razumsku težnju, ispravan način korištenja volje, te slobodnu volju.This work aims to analyse man according to Thomistic anthropology, showing a clear picture of reason and will as his two specific faculties and according to the hierarchical order of material beings, comparing man with other living beings. In this paper the method of analysis is used. First chapter deals with the life and work of Thomas Aquinas, while in the second chapter we analyse different kinds of souls: vegetative, animal and human, and their mutual differences according to their inherent faculties. The following chapter is dedicated to reasearch of reason as an important human faculty, two types of cognition, sensory and rational, and their mutual differences and process of abstraction in which both of them participate. The last chapter analyses the will as rational appetitive faculty and the free will
A Forgotten cultural heritage: The Garagnin-Fanfogna park in Trogir
Park Garagnin-Fanfogna u Trogiru smatran je jednim od prvih botaničkih vrtova u Hrvatskoj. Nastao je prema ideji poznatog trogirskog plemića Ivana Luke Garagnina na samom početku 19. stoljeća. Za arhitektonski projekt, velikim dijelom zaslužan je venecijanski arhitekt Giannantonio Selva. Kompleks se sastojao od četiri arhitektonska dijela, a to su središnji vrtni casinetto, oranžerija, sjeverna gospodarska građevina (vrtlareva kućica) te južna gospodarska građevina (barchessa). Budući da se Ivan Luka bavio gospodarstvom i konzervacijom, u park je dopremio preko 350 biljnih vrsta, a zatim je postavio i antičke lapide iz obiteljske zbirke koji su dijelom pronađeni na njegovim iskopima u Saloni. Završetkom Drugog svjetskog rata obitelj Garagnin-Fanfogna odlazi u Italiju, a park postaje vlasništvo općine Trogir. Park je 2008. godine zaštićen kao kulturno dobro no, danas je u potpunosti zapušten. Rad objašnjava proces od gradnje pa do današnjeg izgleda parka. Objedinjuje posljednje poznate prijedloge obnove te ih na kritički način sagledava.The Garagnin-Fanfogna park in Trogir is considered one of the first botanical gardens in Croatia. It was created based on the idea of the well-known Trogir nobleman Ivan Luka Garagnin at the very beginning of the 19th century. The architectural project is largely credited to the Venetian architect Giannantoni Selva. The complex consisted of four architectural parts: the central garden casinetto, the orangery, the northern utility building (gardener's house), and the southern utility building (barchessa). Since Ivan Luka was involved in agriculture and conservation, he brought over 350 plant species to the park and then placed ancient lapidary stones from the family collection, some of which were found during his excavations in Salona. After World War II, the Garagnin-Fanfogna family moved to Italy, and the park became the property of the municipality of Trogir. In 2008, the park was protected as a cultural heritage site, but today it is completely neglected. The paper explains the process from the park's construction to its current state and it also reviews the most recent known renovation proposals and critically assesses them
The discursive analysis of the speech General Policy Statement delivered by the Prime Minister Mr. Jean Castex on July 15, 2020 in the French National Assembly
Ce travail se concentre sur l'analyse du discours politique, en prenant comme étude de cas le discours du Premier ministre français Jean Castex, prononcé le 15 juillet 2020 à l'Assemblée nationale. Le travail adopte une approche interdisciplinaire, intégrant la linguistique du discours, l'analyse critique du discours et la sémiotique sociale, pour explorer comment le discours est utilisé comme un outil pour façonner la perception publique, établir le pouvoir et reproduire les idéologies sociales. Les théories et les concepts développés par Sylvia Bendel Larcher, notamment dans son ouvrage « Diskurslinguistik », constituent la base théorique de ce mémoire. Bendel Larcher propose un cadre méthodologique complet pour l'analyse du discours, qui intègre diverses disciplines et permet une compréhension approfondie des structures linguistiques et de leurs fonctions sociales. Son travail est fondamental pour la méthodologie utilisée dans cette étude, qui inclut l'analyse textuelle, syntaxique, lexicale et pragmatique, ainsi que l'analyse contextuelle reliant le discours à des cadres sociaux, politiques et culturels plus larges. L'analyse est structurée en plusieurs niveaux : le niveau textuel, où sont examinées la structure du discours, le choix des mots et la syntaxe ; le niveau discursif, qui analyse les schémas récurrents dans le discours ; et le niveau social, qui explore comment le discours reflète et influence les relations de pouvoir dans la société. Une attention particulière est accordée aux stratégies utilisées par les leaders politiques pour façonner le discours public et orienter les changements sociaux en fonction de leurs objectifs politiques. L'objectif de ce travail est de contribuer à une meilleure compréhension du rôle du langage dans les processus politiques, en montrant que le discours politique n'est pas seulement un moyen de communication, mais aussi un puissant outil de façonnage social et de contrôle. Le mémoire conclut que l'analyse du discours est essentielle pour comprendre la dynamique du pouvoir dans la société et le rôle que le langage joue dans la construction des réalités sociales.Ovaj diplomski rad bavi se analizom političkog diskursa, s posebnim fokusom na govor francuskog premijera Jean Castexa, održan 15. srpnja 2020. godine u francuskoj Nacionalnoj skupštini. Rad koristi interdisciplinarni pristup, koji uključuje lingvistiku govora, kritičku analizu govora i socijalnu semiotiku, kako bi se istražilo kako se govor koristi kao alat za oblikovanje javne percepcije, uspostavljanje moći i reprodukciju društvenih ideologija. Kao teorijska osnova, rad se oslanja na radove Sylvia Bendel Larcher, posebno njeno djelo "Diskurslinguistik". Bendel Larcher razvija sveobuhvatan metodološki okvir za analizu diskursa, koji integrira različite discipline i omogućava dubinsko razumijevanje jezičnih struktura i njihovih društvenih funkcija. Njen rad je bio ključan za razvoj metodologije korištene u ovom radu, koja obuhvaća analizu tekstualnih, sintaktičkih, leksičkih i pragmatičkih aspekata diskursa, kao i kontekstualnu analizu koja povezuje diskurs sa širim društvenim, političkim i kulturnim okvirom. Analiza u radu obuhvaća nekoliko razina: tekstualnu razinu, na kojoj se ispituju struktura govora, izbor riječi i sintaksa; govorna razina, gdje se analiziraju ponavljajući obrasci u govoru; i društvena razina, gdje se ispituje kako diskurs reflektira i utječe na društvene odnose moći. Posebna pažnja je posvećena strategijama koje politički lideri koriste kako bi oblikovali javni diskurs i usmjerili društvene promjene u skladu sa svojim političkim ciljevima. Cilj rada je doprinos boljem razumijevanju uloge jezika u političkim procesima, pokazavši kako politički diskurs nije samo sredstvo komunikacije, već i moćan alat za društveno oblikovanje i kontrolu. Rad zaključuje da je analiza govora neophodna za razumijevanje dinamike moći u društvu i uloge koju jezik ima u oblikovanju društvenih realnosti.This thesis focuses on the analysis of political discourse, using as a case study the speech delivered by French Prime Minister Jean Castex on July 15, 2020, at the National Assembly. The work adopts an interdisciplinary approach, integrating discourse linguistics, critical discourse analysis, and social semiotics, to explore how discourse is used as a tool to shape public perception, establish power, and reproduce social ideologies. The theories and concepts developed by Sylvia Bendel Larcher, particularly in her book "Diskurslinguistik," form the theoretical basis of this thesis. Bendel Larcher proposes a comprehensive methodological framework for discourse analysis, which integrates various disciplines and allows for an in – depth understanding of linguistic structures and their social functions. Her work is fundamental to the methodology used in this study, which includes textual, syntactical, lexical, and pragmatic analysis, as well as contextual analysis that links the discourse to broader social, political, and cultural frameworks. The analysis is structured on several levels: the textual level, where the structure of the discourse, word choice, and syntax are examined; the discursive level, which analyses recurring patterns in the discourse; and the social level, which explores how the discourse reflects and influences power relations in society. Particular attention is given to the strategies used by political leaders to shape public discourse and guide social change according to their political objectives. The goal of this work is to contribute to a better understanding of the role of language in political processes, demonstrating that political discourse is not just a means of communication but also a powerful tool for social shaping and control. The thesis concludes that discourse analysis is essential for understanding the dynamics of power in society and the role that language plays in constructing social realities
Photography of Brkan brothers
Ovaj se rad bavi analizom stilskih i sadržajnih kvaliteta fotografije braće Brkan. Autor u njemu pokušava povezati opći likovni i duhovni kontekst Zapadne Europe sa poslijeratnim Zadrom kao pojedinačnim ishodištem tog konteksta. Rad započinje kratkim izlaganjem koje polazi od samih početaka tehnološke evolucije na Zapadu, nastavlja opisom razvoja fotografije sa tehnološkog stajališta te obuhvaća povijest fotografije u Hrvatskoj. Posljednji je dio zaokupljen izlaganjem biografskih podataka o Anti i Zvonimiru Brkanu te posrijedi morfološkom analizom pojedinačnih fotografskih uradaka braće Brkan u kontekstu poslijeratnog Zadra. Zahvaljujući zajedničkom organizacijskom djelovanju Ante i Zvonimira Brkana, utemeljen je međunarodni trijenale fotografije Čovjek i More. Spomenuta je izložba postavila grad Zadar, gotovo pola stoljeća na kartu najvažnijih kulturnih sjecišta u Europi kada je u pitanju umjetnička fotografija.This thesis is an analysis of stylistic and substanial qualities about photography works by Brkan brothers. Author tries to connect the overall artistic and political context of twentieth century Europe, with consequences that directly emerged in post-war city of Zadar. Thesis starts at the very beginnings of western technological evolution, proceeds with the development of photographic technology and history of photographic activity in nineteenth and twentieh century Croatia. Furthermore, thesis proceeds with biographical factography of Ante and Zvonimir Brkan. Latter part is mainly concerned with art historical analysis of particular photographs by the two, in cultural context of post-war Zadar
The Family Role in the Development of Emotion Regulation
Unatoč tome što se kao društvo sve više osvještavamo po pitanju emocija i dalje imamo tendenciju izbjegavati one neugodne, što može biti štetno za dobrobit pojedinca, a i društva u cjelini. Emocije imaju velik utjecaj na kvalitetu naših života, stoga je važno naučiti kako ih učinkovito regulirati, a ključnu ulogu u tome ima obitelj. Koliko je ova uloga značajna, saznalo se provodeći dubinske polustrukturirane intervjue s osam sugovornika. Razgovore su usmjeravala četiri zadatka istraživanja, vezana uz njihovu trenutnu sposobnost emocionalne regulacije, kontekst njihova odrastanja i odrastanja njihovih roditelja, načine na koje je obitelj podržavala i kočila razvoj njihove sposobnosti regulacije emocija te uz utjecaj njihove sposobnosti emocionalne regulacije na kvalitetu njihova života. Cilj ovog rada bio je čuti različite priče sugovornika putem kojih će se definirati neki obiteljski čimbenici koji su podržavali ili kočili razvoj njihove sposobnosti emocionalne regulacije.Despite the fact that, as a society, we are becoming more aware of emotions, we still tend to avoid the uncomfortable ones, which can be harmful to the well-being of both individuals and society as a whole. Emotions have a significant impact on the quality of our lives, so it is important to learn how to regulate them effectively, and the family plays a key role in this. I discovered how significant this role is by conducing in-depth semi-structured interviews with eight participants. The conversations were guided by four research tasks related to their current ability to regulate emotions, the context of their upbringing and that of their parents, the ways in which the family supported or hindered the development of their emotion regulation skills, and the impact of their ability to regulate emotions on the quality of their lives. The aim of this paper is to hear the different stories of the participants in order to define certain family factors that supported or hindered the development of their emotion regulation skills
Comparison of 2D and 3D laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in general hospital Zadar
Cilj ovog istraživanja je istražiti epidemiološka obilježja bolesnika oboljelih od karcinoma bubrega te usporediti razlike u kliničkim parametrima između 2D i 3D laparaskopske parcijalne nefrektomije. U ovom presječnom istraživanju, bilo je uključeno 33 bolesnika koji su u razdoblju od 01. siječnja 2015. do 31. prosinca 2020. godine hospitalizirani na Odjelu za urologiju OB Zadar te imali dijagnozu karcinoma bubrega. Ispitanici koji su imali dijagnozu tumora bubrega koji je liječen kirurškim putem u periodu od šest godina ispunjavali su kriterij uključenja u istraživanje. Hospitalizirani pacijenti su uz to raspodijeljeni prema spolu, životnoj (kronološkoj) dobi, županiji, vremenskom trajanju operacije, trajanju staze ishemije, veličini tumora, tipu tumora, resekcijskom rubu, vrsti operativnog zahvata te danima boravka na odjelu. Podatci su prikupljeni iz bolničkog informacijskog sustava i dokumentacije Odjela za urologiju OB Zadar. Kako bi se prikupili podaci za potrebe ovog presječnog istraživanja, korišten je bolnički informacijski sustav. Kako bi utvrdili deskriptivne parametre korištenih varijabli, korištena je aritmetička sredina (AS). Rezultati su pokazali da je u ovom istraživanju muški spol bio češći. Prosječna dob pacijenata u razdoblju od 2015. do 2017. godine bila je 59 godina, a u razdoblju od 2018. do 2020. godine 58,3 godina. Prosječno trajanje operativnog zahvata u razdoblju od 2015. do 2017. godine bilo je 2 sata i 10 minuta, dok je u razdoblju od 2018. do 2020. godine operativni zahvat trajao prosječno 1 sat i 52 minute. Prosječno trajanje hemostaze u razdoblju od 2015. do 2017. godine bilo je 24 minute a u razdoblju od 2018. do 2020. godine 21,1 minutu. Prosječna veličina tumora u razdoblju od 2015. do 2017. godine iznosila je 2,1 cm a u razdoblju od 2018. do 2020. godine 2,6 cm. Udio maligniteta u patohistološkim nalazima u razdoblju od 2015. do 2017. godine iznosio je 50%, a u razdoblju od 2018. do 2020. godine iznosio je 66%. Prosječno vrijeme boravka na odjelu u razdoblju od 2015. do 2017. godine bilo je 6,6 dana a u razdoblju od 2018. do 2020. godine 5,7 dana. Prosječno procijenjen gubitak krvi za vrijeme operativnog zahvata u razdoblju od 2015. do 2017. godine bio je 90 mililitara, dok je u razdoblju od 2018. do 2020. godine prosječni gubitak krvi iznosio 50 mililitara. Usporedba navedenih čimbenika i dobivenih rezultata pruža izuzetan uvid kod oba kirurška pristupa glede pozitivnih i negativnih strana. Prednosti 3D su kraće trajanje operativnog zahvata, kraće trajanje arterijske staze što je bitno za bolje očuvanje bubrežne funkcije te kraće trajanje hospitalizacije. Gubitak krvi u obje populacije je klinički zaista malen te je zanemariva razlika među njima. Kontinuirano praćenje pacijenta postoperativno s namjerom pravovremenog uočavanja komplikacija te uspješna reakcija s pravom terapijom u skladu s aktualnim potrebama je ključna kako bi ostvarila najbolji mogući ishod. Kljuĉne riječi su laparaskopija, nefrektomija, usporedba, tumor bubrega, liječenjeThe aim of this study is to investigate the epidemiological characteristics of patients with kidney cancer and to compare the differences in clinical parameters between 2D and 3D laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. In this cross-sectional study, 33 patients were included who were hospitalized at the Urology Department of the OB Zadar between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2020 and were diagnosed with kidney cancer. Respondents who had a diagnosis of a kidney tumor that was treated surgically within a period of six years met the criteria for inclusion in the study. In addition, hospitalized patients were divided according to gender, chronological age, county, duration of surgery, duration of ischemia, tumor size, tumor type, resection margin, type of surgery, and days spent in the ward. The data were collected from the hospital information system and documentation of the Department of Urology, OB Zadar. In order to collect data for the needs of this cross-sectional study, the hospital information system was used. In order to determine the descriptive parameters of the used variables, the arithmetic mean (AS) was used.The results showed that the male gender was more common in this study. The average age of patients in the period from 2015 to 2017 is 59 years, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 it is 58.3. The average duration of the operation in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 2 hours and 10 minutes, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 it was 1 hour and 52 minutes. The average duration of hemostasis in the period from 2015 to 2017 is 24 minutes, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 it is 21.1 minutes. The average tumor size in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 2.1 cm, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 it was 2.6 cm. The share of malignancy in pathohistological findings in the period from 2015 to 2017 is 50%, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 it is 66%. The average length of stay in the department in the period from 2015 to 2017 is 6.6 days, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 it is 5.7 days. The average estimated blood loss during surgery in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 90 milliliters, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 it was 50 milliliters. The results showed that the male gender was more common in this research. The average age of patients in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 59 years, and in the period from 2018 to 2020 it was 58.3 years. The average duration of the operation in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 2 hours and 10 minutes, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 the operation lasted an average of 1 hour and 52 minutes. The average duration of hemostasis in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 24 minutes, and in the period from 2018 to 2020, 21.1 minutes. The average tumor size in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 2.1 cm and in the period from 2018 to 2020 it was 2.6 cm. The share of malignancy in pathohistological findings in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 50%, and in the period from 2018 to 2020 it was 66%. The average length of stay in the department in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 6.6 days, and in the period from 2018 to 2020, 5.7 days. The average estimated blood loss during surgery in the period from 2015 to 2017 was 90 milliliters, while in the period from 2018 to 2020 the average blood loss was 50 milliliters. The comparison of the mentioned factors and the obtained results provides an exceptional insight into the positive and negative aspects of both surgical approaches. The advantages of 3D are a shorter duration of the operative procedure, a shorter duration of the arterial path, which is essential for better preservation of renal function, and a shorter duration of hospitalization. Blood loss in both populations is clinically really small and the difference between them is negligible. Continuous monitoring of the patient postoperatively with the intention of timely detection of complications and a successful response with the right therapy in accordance with the current needs is essential in order to achieve the best possible outcome
Association between the quality of health care and health outcomes in patients treated at the Dementia and Palliative Care Department of the Ugljan Psychiatric Hospital in the period from 2018 to 2023.
Uvod: Produljeni životni vijek te porast incidencije kroničnih bolesti rezultiraju većom potrebom za palijativnom skrbi. Cilj rada je ispitati povezanost indikatora kvalitete zdravstvene njege i zdravstvenih ishoda. Metode: U ovom retrospektivnom istraživanju analizirali su se zdravstvenih ishodi u pacijenata s dijagnozom Z51.5 preminulih u Psihijatrijskoj bolnici Ugljan u razdoblju od 2018. do 2023.godine. Ispitanici su podijeljeni u dvije skupine: pacijenti s demencijom (N=100) i pacijenti s drugim dijagnozama (kronične, maligne i psihičke bolesti) (N=97). Za ispitivanje razlika među skupinama korišten je Mann-Whitneyev U test i Hi-kvadrat test. Multivarijatna linearna regresija korištena za analizu povezanosti među varijablama. Rezultati: U ispitanika s demencijom (Me=46,0; IQR=75,0) zabilježen je dulji boravak u bolnici u odnosu na one s drugim dijagnozama (Me=26,0; IQR=86,0), p=0,014. Nije pronađena razlika u trajanju dijagnoze Z51.5 među skupinama (p=0,102). Ispitanici s drugim dijagnozama (54,6%) su češće razvijali nepokretnost (76,3%; p=0,043) i dekubitus (45,4%; p=0,017). Nije pronađena razlika u pojavnosti otežanog hranjenja (p=0,772), uroinfekcija (p=0,652) i pneumonija (p=0,383). Pronađena je povezanost između duljine hospitalizacije i dijagnoze Z51.5 (β=0,49; p<0,001) te nepokretnosti s duljinom hospitalizacije (β=-0,27; p<0,001) i dijagnozom Z51.5 (β=0,20; p=0,005). Starija dob bila je povezana s kraćom hospitalizacijom (β=-0,17; p=0,016). Ostale povezanosti između duljine hospitalizacije, dijagnoze Z51.5, indikatora kvalitete zdravstvene njege i negativnih zdravstvenih ishoda nisu pronađene. Zaključak: Povezanost između duljine trajanja hospitalizacije, dijagnoze i nepokretnosti, uz izostanak povezanosti s negativnim zdravstvenim ishodima ukazuje da učinkovite preventivne mjere mogu pozitivno utjecati na zdravstveno stanje pacijenata. Edukacija o značaju prevencije može značajno doprinijeti kvaliteti zdravstvene njege u ustanovama palijativne skrbi.Introduction: Increased life expectancy and the rising incidence of chronic diseases result in a greater need for palliative care. The aim of this study is to examine the association between healthcare quality indicators and health outcomes. Methods: In this retrospective study, health outcomes were analyzed in patients with a diagnosis of Z51.5 who passed away at the Psychiatric Hospital Ugljan between 2018 and 2023. The subjects were divided into two groups: patients with dementia (N=100) and patients with other diagnoses (chronic, malignant, and psychiatric diseases) (N=97). The Mann-Whitney U test and Hi-square test were used to assess differences between the groups. Multivariate linear regression was used to analyze the associations between variables. Results: Dementia patients (Me=46.0; IQR=75.0) had a longer hospital stay compared to those with other diagnoses (Me=26.0; IQR=86.0), p=0.014. No difference was found in the duration of the Z51.5 diagnosis between the groups (p=0.102). Patients with other diagnoses (54.6%) more frequently developed immobility (76.3%; p=0.043) and bedsores (45.4%; p=0.017). No difference was found in the incidence of feeding difficulties (p=0.772), urinary infections (p=0.652), or pneumonia (p=0.383). An association was found between the length of hospitalization and the Z51.5 diagnosis (β=0.49; p<0.001), as well as between immobility and the length of hospitalization (β=-0.27; p<0.001) and the Z51.5 diagnosis (β=0.20; p=0.005). Older age was associated with a shorter hospital stay (β=-0.17; p=0.016). No other associations were found between the length of hospitalization, the Z51.5 diagnosis, healthcare quality indicators, and negative health outcomes. Conclusion: The association between the length of hospitalization, diagnosis, and immobility, along with the absence of a connection with negative health outcomes, suggests that effective preventive measures can positively influence the health status of patients. Education on the importance of prevention can significantly contribute to the quality of healthcare in palliative care facilities
Restoration and Conservation of the Old Bridge in Mostar
Stari most prvenstveno je izveden 1566. godine od strane turskog zanatlije Hayreddina. Ratnim stradanjima uništen je 1993. godine, uronivši u hladnu rijeku Neretvu. Zahtjevi stanovništva grada Mostara rezultirali su obnovom Starog mosta završenom 2004. godine pod pokroviteljskom UNESCO – a. U radu su prikazana dva segmenta: obnove i zaštite. Poglavlja o obnovi donose preglede iscrpnih terenskih radova i procesa obnove, dok drugi dio rada predstavlja teoriju zaštite koja je primijenjena na primjeru Starog mosta. Svaki dio donosi nove činjenice i saznanja ne samo o slojevitosti lokaliteta, nego i o identitetu naroda. Rad je obogaćen i kratkom anketom koju je autorica samostalno izvela s nadležnim tijelima zasluženim za očuvanje i zaštitu povijesnog spomenika, Starog mostaThe Old Bridge was originally constructed in 1566 by the Turkish craftsman Hayreddin. It was destroyed in 1993 during the war. The demands of the citizens of Mostar led to the bridge's restoration, which was completed in 2004 under the support of UNESCO. This master's thesis presents two key aspects: restoration and protection. The chapters on restoration provide detailed overviews of the extensive fieldwork and the restoration process, while the second part of the master's thesis focuses on the theory of protection applied to the example of the Old Bridge. Each section offers new insights not only into the complexity of the site but also into the identity of the local population. The master's thesis includes also short survey conducted by the author, in collaboration with the authorities responsible for the conservation the Old Bridg
Traditional Children's Musical Games from the Lika Region
Ovaj diplomski rad istražuje dječje tradicijske glazbene igre ličkoga kraja, analizirajući njihov povijesni, kulturni i društveni značaj. Cilj rada je prikazati kako ove igre, kao oblik nematerijalne kulturne baštine, doprinose očuvanju lokalnog identiteta i tradicije te kako utječu na socijalni i edukativni razvoj djece. Istraživanje je provedeno kroz analizu dostupne literature, usmene predaje te terenski rad, uključujući intervjue sa starijim članovima zajednice. Poseban naglasak stavljen je na igre koje su djeca izvodila za vrijeme čuvanja stoke, što je bio čest zadatak u ruralnim dijelovima Like. Igre poput "Piljkanja", "Frulaške igre" i "Pastirska kola" predstavljene su kao primjeri bogate tradicijske prakse. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da su ove igre integrirale elemente glazbe, plesa i socijalne interakcije, pružajući djeci priliku za učenje i razvoj kroz igru. Igre su također služile kao način prenošenja kulturnih vrijednosti, normi i znanja s jedne generacije na drugu. Kroz jednostavne, ali duboko simbolične aktivnosti, djeca su učila o ritmu, melodiji, koordinaciji pokreta te zajedništvu i suradnji. Rad naglašava da dječje tradicijske glazbene igre imaju potencijal za jačanje lokalnog identiteta i pružanje autentičnih kulturnih iskustava, što može doprinijeti i razvoju kulturnog turizma.This graduate work investigates traditional children's musical games from the Lika region, analyzing their historical, cultural and social significance. The aim of the paper is to show how these games, as a form of intangible cultural heritage, contribute to the preservation of local identity and tradition and how they affect the social and educational development of children. The research was conducted through the analysis of available literature, oral tradition and field work, including interviews with older members of the community. A special emphasis was placed on the games that children performed while herding cattle, which was a common task in the rural parts of Lika. Games like "Piljkanje", "Flute game" and "Shepherd's cart" are presented as examples of rich traditional practice. Research results show that these games integrated elements of music, dance and social interaction, providing children with the opportunity to learn and develop through play. Games also served as a way to transmit cultural values, norms and knowledge from one generation to another. Through simple but deeply symbolic activities, the children learned about rhythm, melody, movement coordination, togetherness and cooperation. The paper emphasizes that traditional children's musical games have the potential to strengthen local identity and provide authentic cultural experiences, which can also contribute to the development of cultural tourism
Glamor versus groceries: the emotional and aesthetic work of saleswomen in luxury stores and food stores
Ovo istraživanje usmjereno je na radne svakodnevice prodavačica zaposlenih u luksuznim trgovinama i dućanima prehrane. Provedeno istraživanje utemeljeno je na pregledu literature o zanimanju prodavačice, emocionalnom i estetskom radu, zadovoljstvu poslom te ravnoteži privatnog i poslovnog života. Za svrhe ovog istraživanje provedeno je sedam polu-strukturiranih intervjua. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju na univerzalnost iskustva rada prodavačica u pogledu stigmatizacije tog zanimanja, te važnosti organizacije i raspodijele rada za zadovoljstvo poslom te ravnotežu privatnog i poslovnog života. Također se pokazalo da postoje specifičnosti u pogledu emocionalnog i estetskog rada ovisno o tipu trgovine jer se prodavačice u luksuznim trgovinama susreću sa strogim pravilima izražavanje emocija te striktnim pravilima uljepšavanja i odijevanja, dok se ta pravila u dućanima prehrane svode na efikasnost, funkcionalnost i higijenu.This research is focused on the everyday working life of saleswomen employed in luxury stores and food stores. The conducted research is based on a review of the literature on saleswomen's occupation, emotional and aesthetic work, job satisfaction and the balance of private and business life. For the purposes of this research, seven semi-structured interviews were conducted. The results of the research indicate the universality of saleswomen's work experience with regard to the stigmatization of that occupation, and the importance of organization and distribution of work for job satisfaction and the balance of private and business life. It has also been shown that there are specifics in terms of emotional and aesthetic work depending on the type of store, because saleswomen in luxury stores face strict rules for expressing emotions and strict rules for beautifying and dressing, while these rules in food stores are reduced to efficiency, functionality and hygiene
