No full textThe EU Strategy for the Danube Region: What Potential Contribution to Regional Stability and Co-operation? Bruges Regional Integration & Global Governance Paper 4/2011, September 2011
No full textThe European Union Strategy for the Danube Region is a recent initiative that aims to enhance sub-regional co-operation through collaboration on a series of crossborder projects. In this paper, I present an analysis of the strategy’s preparation and consultation stages in order to assess the extent to which it incorporates an effective external dimension, capable of enhancing regional stability and cooperation. In order to identify a set of common indicators that are indicative of successful sub-regional policy, I begin my research with an analysis of three existing sub-regional frameworks: the European Union Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region, the Northern Dimension and the Black Sea Economic Co-operation. On the basis of this analysis, I identify indicators of successful sub-regional policy as: equal partnership, joint ownership, diverse stakeholder involvement, adequate funding and
institutional capacity, strong level of commitment and common interests and objectives. When applied to the external dimension of the European Union Strategy
for the Danube Region, the indicators reveal several weaknesses that may serve to reduce the strategy’s overall effectiveness. By identifying areas for improvement,
this research aims to make a contribution to progressive sub-regional policy, while providing a comprehensive case study that may be subject to analysis within a broader theoretical framework
Short story by Mojca Kumerdej
No full textPričujoče diplomsko delo podaja značilnosti sodobne slovenske kratke proze, proučuje izbrano sodobno slovensko avtorico in njeni kratkoprozni zbirki Fragma in Temna snov ter prinaša zapis o značilnostih literature, ki jo pišejo ženske.
Slovenska pisateljica Mojca Kumerdej sodi v obdobje slovenske literarne postmoderne. Za to obdobje sta značilni izrazita heterogenost in pluralnost. Znotraj dobe opazimo več literarnih smeri, ki se medsebojno prepletajo, včasih opazimo celo več literarnih smeri znotraj istega dela: neorealizem, postsimbolizem, magični realizem, neodekadenco, minimalizem, postmodernizem. Za literaturo je nemogoče najti skupno imerečemo lahko, da je obdobje slovenske postmoderne obdobje »avtopoetik«. Med literarnimi ustvarjalci je v omenjenem obdobju najpriljubljenejša kratka proza. Obseg pojma kratka proza je skrajno nejasen, zato največkrat nedoločen. Tradicionalna literarna teorija navaja več sinonimnih izrazov, kljub temu pa si sodobna literarna veda prizadeva za vrstno razločevanje znotraj področja kratke proze: kratka zgodba (short story), novela, črtica. Literarni znanstveniki (Blanka Bošnjak) razlikujejo več tipov slovenske kratke proze: postmodernističnega, ultramodernističnega, iracionalno-mističnega in neorealističnega.
Neorealistični prozni pisavi sledi Mojca Kumerdej, umetnostna kritičarka in kulturna kronistka, in sicer v svoji prvi zbirki kratke proze Fragma. Literarni opus Mojce Kumerdej obsega tri dela – roman Krst nad Triglavom (2001) ter dve kratkoprozni zbirki, že omenjeno Fragmo (2003) in Temno snov (2011), ki sta osrednji predmet diplomskega dela.
V Fragmi gre za prikaz neznanih, skrajnih, celo zločinskih vidikov iz življenja navidez običajnega človeka. Fragma je simbol za duševni zapredek, ki v določenem trenutku poči in privede v nepričakovana dejanja (detomor, samomor, sadomazohizem, pedofilija idr. patološkosti). Jezikovno-slogovno so besedila zaznamovana s pogovornimi in slengovskimi izrazi, pojavljajo se tudi angleški citati.
Temna snov podaja zgodbe iz življenja v sodobnem svetu. Njene osrednje teme so sodobnikove frustracije, prekrite travme, spolne zlorabe, zločini, čudodelstva, izključevalnost do drugačnih, materializem. Naslov simbolizira skrite, zamolčane globine v človeku, za katere je le vprašanje časa, kdaj bodo prišle na dan. Besedila se ukvarjajo z vprašanjem, kaj se skriva za videzom, za navidez urejeno vsakdanjostjo. Napisana so v nezahtevnem, komunikativnem slogu.
Mojca Kumerdej se s svojima zbirkama kratke proze nesporno uvršča med najkakovostnejše sodobne slovenske avtorice, a je treba opozoriti na dejstvo, da literarna zgodovina in kritika ženski ustvarjalnosti še vedno ne namenjata dovolj pozornosti oziroma jo puščata v ozadju.This diploma paper examines the characteristics of Slovenian short prose and focuses on a contemporary Slovenian author and her two collections of short prose: Fragma and Temna snov. Furthermore, it also considers the characteristics of women’s writing.
The Slovenian writer Mojca Kumerdej is an author of the Slovenian postmodern literature. The distinctive features of this period include heterogeneity and plurality. There are several intertwining literary tendencies, sometimes even within the same piece of writing: neorealism, post-symbolism, magic realism, neo-decadence, minimalism, and postmodernism. It is impossible to find a common name for this literatureit can only be said that the Slovenian postmodern period is a period of “Autopoetics”. The most popular literary genre among the authors from this period is short prose. The definition of short prose is extremely vague, therefore for the most part undetermined. Traditional literary theory lists several synonyms, but literary theory insists on the following type classification within short prose: short story, novella, sketch story. Literary theorists (Blanka Bošnjak) define several types of Slovenian short prose.
In the period after Slovenia\u27s independence, the prevailing tendency would be neorealism, which Mojca Kumerdej, the author of two collections of short prose, Fragma (2003) and Temna snov (2011), also subscribes to.
In her first collection, Fragma, she deals with unknown, extreme, even criminal aspects in the life of a seemingly ordinary human being. The word “fragma” is a symbol of a mental cocoon that suddenly bursts and leads to unexpected events (infanticide, suicide, sadomasochism, paedophilia and other pathological states). In terms of language and style, the texts contain colloquial and slang terms and occasional English quotations.
The author\u27s second collection, Temna snov, contains stories about the life in the modern world. The main themes include contemporary frustrations, concealed traumas, sexual abuse, crime, miracles, social exclusion, and materialism. The title Temna snov (Dark matter) symbolises hidden, concealed depths in a person, where it is only a matter of time when it all bursts into the open. The texts pose the question what is hidden behind the appearance, the seemingly tidy every-day life. The style of writing is unpretentious and communicative.
On the basis of her two collections of short prose, Mojca Kumerdej unquestionably deserves her place among the best contemporary Slovenian authors. It should be noted, however, that literary history and literary critique still do not pay enough attention to female creativity
PICTURE BOOKS WRITTEN AND ILLUSTRATED BY MOJCA OSOJNIK
No full textNamen moje diplomske naloge je bil predstaviti Mojco Osojnik kot avtorico in ilustratorko njenih štirih avtorskih slikanic. Ker je slikanica likovno-tekstovna celota, sem v vsaki slikanici analizirala likovni in tekstovni del. Pri besednem delu so me zanimale morfološke značilnosti besedila, pri likovnem delu sem se osredotočila na likovne značilnosti ilustracij. Podrobna analiza posameznih slikanic mi je pomagala ugotoviti, ali so moje hipoteze, ki sem jih postavila na začetku diplomskega dela, pravilne ali nepravilne.
Besedila Mojce Osojnik so pravljična, in sicer gre za kratke sodobne pravljice s poosebljeno živaljo. V teh pravljicah so glavni literarni liki poosebljene živali. V njih opazimo dvoplastnost dogajanja, ki se odvija v enem samem svetu. Irealno raven vzpostavljajo poosebljene živali, ki pa so postavljene v realni svet (sodobno okolje). Prevladuje vsevedi pripovedovalec. Besedila imajo leposlovno vsebino in poučno tematiko (na slednjo opozarjajo pregovori na koncu zgodbe)izjema je slikanica z naslovom Hiša, ki bi rada imela sonce. V tej pravljici je glavni literarni lik poosebljen predmet, zato jo štejemo pod kratko sodobno pravljico s poosebljenim predmetom. Besedila so namenjena in razumljiva otrokom, ki ne znajo brati (otrokom v predšolskem obdobju) in otrokom, ki samostojno berejo.
Da bi bolje razumela in opredelila značilnosti ilustracij Mojce Osojnik, sem dodatno analizirala tri slikanice, v katerih je Mojca le ilustratorka. Ugotovila sem, da je likovni izraz Mojce Osojnik zelo kompleksen. V svoje ilustracije rada vključuje kolaž, fotografijo in druge likovne tehnike, ki jih med seboj kombinira. Ilustracije so polne različnih prostorskih pogledov in filmskih rezov. Ilustracije dopolnjujejo in se logično vežejo na pripoved. V njih najdemo vrhunsko oblikovane rešitve, zato so zanimive tudi za odrasle. Zaradi drobnih humorističnih detajlov živih barv pa so ilustracije privlačne tudi za otroke.SUMMARY
The main aim of the assignmnet is to present Mojca Osojnik as a writer and as an illustrator of her four authorial picture books. A picture book consists of a drawing-verbal unit, so I decided to analyse both - drawing and verbal part. At the verbal part I focused my interest on morphological characteristics of the text whereas at the drawing part I centred on characteristics of the illustrations themselves. Detailed analysis of the individual picture books helped me to confirm or to reject my hypothesis.
Texts of Mojca Osojnik are fairy – they are short contemporary fairy-tales with a personified animalthe main characters are animals.
In fairy-tales of Mojca Osojnik we meet two layers of the events taking place in one single world: unreal layer is presented by personified animals which are set in the real world (modern world). So called »all-knowing« author prevails in her tales. The stories of her fairy-tales consist of instructive elements, too (we can notice them as proverbs in the end of the tales)but there is one single exception - the picture book Hiša, ki bi rada imela sonce. The main character in the last mentioned picture book is a personified object, so we classify this picture book as a short contemporary fairy-tale with a personified object. The texts are meant and intelligible for unliterate children (preschool children) as well as for literate children.
Due to better understanding and definition of the characteristics of illustrations of Mojca Osojnik, I additionally analysed three of her picture books where she appears only as an illustrator. I found out that her artistic image as an illustrator is very complex. She likes to include and combine different artistic techniques, photos and patchwork. Her illustrations are full of different space looks and film cuts. Her illustrations logically complete her stories. We can meet there brilliant solutions, that is why they are attractive for adults, too. Tiny humourous details of glaring colours drag children to admire the illustrations of Mojca Osojnik

No full textMetals are naturally present in surface waters. By considering the bioavailability of a metal in an aquatic environment, we can more precisely predict the effect of a selected metal on aquatic organisms. This enables us to make a more reliable assessment of the compliance of the metal\u27s concentration in inland surface waters with the environmental quality standard for that metal. In addition to complex-forming inorganic and organic ligands, the bioavailability of metals in water is also influenced by physicochemical conditions in the water. Metals occur in different concentrations and in different forms in aquatic environments. This is referred to as metal speciation. The bioavailability of a metal in water depends mainly on its speciation. Normally, a dissolved free metal ion is more bioavailable than a metal ion bound in a complex. The risks posed by given metals to aquatic environments are addressed under EU legislation in the Water Framework Directive (Council of the European Union, 2000) (WFD). The WFD’s purpose is to direct Member States to protect and improve the status of all water bodies throughout the European Union. Directive 2013/39/EC (Council of the European Union, 2013), which refers to priority substances as regards water policy, supplements the WFD and the Directive on environmental quality standards (Council of the European Union, 2008). For nickel and lead, Directive 2013/39/EC sets the annual average environmental quality standards (AA-EQS) for inland surface waters, which refer to biologically available concentrations of metals (AA-EQSbioavailable). In this way, uniform environmental quality standards for the entire European Union are determined for metals, allowing for a compliance assessment of metals for surface waters. In the article, we have presented an analysis of inland surface water monitoring data for nickel and lead, examining how the introduction of AA-EQSbioavailable affects the consistency of monitoring data for these metals. We used monitoring data from 2018 to 2021. To calculate bioavailable concentrations for nickel and lead, we used the bioavailability assessment model bio-met bioavailability tool v.2.3 (Bio-met, 2017). Additionally, for lead, we used equations (1), (2), and (3) to calculate the bioavailable concentration (European Commission, 2019). Based on the analysis conducted, we recommend the utilization of the bio-met model instead of the equations for calculating the concentration of bioavailable lead in the context of the annual compliance assessment of inland surface water monitoring data carried out by ARSO. Using the mentioned bioavailability assessment model, we have provided an upgrade in the methods used to assess metal’s concentration compliance with the EQS for that metal for surface waters. As a result, the requirements of Directive 2013/39/EC relating to biologically available concentrations of metals could be transferred to the Slovenian legal system.Kovine so naravno prisotne v površinskih vodah. Z upoštevanjem biorazpoložljivosti izbrane kovine v vodnem okolju lahko bolj natančno predvidimo, kakšen učinek ima kovina na organizem. To nam omogoča, da izvedemo bolj zanesljivo oceno skladnosti koncentracije kovine v notranjih površinskih vodah z okoljskim standardom kakovosti za to kovino. Na biorazpoložljivost kovine v vodi poleg anorganskih in organskih ligandov, ki tvorijo komplekse, vplivajo tudi fizikalno-kemijski pogoji v vodi. Kovine se v vodnem okolju pojavljajo v različnih koncentracijah in oblikah. To se imenuje speciacija kovin. Biorazpoložljivost kovine v vodi je odvisna predvsem od speciacije. Običajno je raztopljeni prosti ion kovine bolj biorazpoložljiv kot ion kovine, vezan v kompleks. Tveganja, ki jih kovine predstavljajo za vodno okolje, so v okviru zakonodaje EU obravnavana tudi v Vodni direktivi (Council of the European Union, 2000), katere naloga je usmerjanje držav članic pri izboljšanju oziroma ohranjanju stanja vseh vodnih teles znotraj EU. Direktiva 2013/39/ES (Council of the European Union, 2013) v zvezi s prednostnimi snovmi na področju vodne politike dopolnjuje Vodno direktivo in Direktivo o okoljskih standardih kakovosti (Council of the European Union, 2008). Direktiva 2013/39/ES za nikelj in svinec okoljski standard kakovosti za letno povprečje (LP-OSK) v celinskih površinskih vodah zamenjuje z OSK za biološko razpoložljive koncentracije (LP-OSKbiorazpoložljiv). Na ta način je za celotno Evropsko unijo predpisan enotni okoljski standard kakovosti. To omogoča enotno ocenjevanje skladnosti za kovine za vodno okolje. V članku smo prikazali analizo podatkov monitoringa celinskih površinskih voda za nikelj in svinec ter preverili, kako uvedba LP-OSKbiorazpoložljiv vpliva na skladnost podatkov monitoringa za ti kovini. Pri tem smo izhajali iz podatkov monitoringa med letoma 2018 in 2021. Za izračun biorazpoložljivih koncentracij za nikelj in svinec smo uporabili model za oceno biorazpoložljivosti bio-met bioavailability tool v.2.3 (Bio-met, 2017). Za svinec smo za izračun biorazpoložljive koncentracije uporabili tudi enačbe (1), (2) in (3) (European Commission, 2019). Na osnovi izvedene analize priporočamo, da se za letno oceno skladnosti spremljanja celinskih površinskih voda, ki jo izvaja ARSO, namesto enačb za izračun koncentracije biološko razpoložljivega svinca uporabi model bio-met. Z uporabo omenjenega modela za oceno biorazpoložljivosti smo na področju vrednotenja okoljskih standardov kakovosti za kovine in njihove spojine zagotovili nadgradnjo ocene skladnosti kovin za površinske vode. To je omogočilo prenos zahtev Direktive 2013/39/ES, ki se nanašajo na biološko razpoložljive koncentracije kovin, v slovenski pravni red
POETICS OF VIOLENCE IN LITERATURE BY MOJCA KUMERDEJ
No full textV zaključnem magistrskem delu z naslovom Poetika nasilja v literaturi Mojce Kumerdej smo se osredotočili na pisateljičin literarni opus. V delo smo vključili štiri njena do sedaj izdana dela, in sicer: dva romana Kronosova žetev in Krst nad Triglavom ter dve zbirki zgodb Temna snov in Fragma prav tako pa tudi avtoričine objave posameznih zgodb. Osredotočili smo se predvsem na motivno-tematsko analizo njenih del, v ospredje smo postavili tematizacijo nasilja. V teoretičnem delu smo naredili kratek pregled pisateljičine biografije, največ pozornosti pa smo namenili oblikam in vrstam nasilja. S pomočjo motivno-tematske analize proznih del Mojce Kumerdej smo ugotovili, da se v njenih delih pogosto pojavlja tako psihična kot fizična tematizacija nasilja. Slednja se velikokrat dogaja znotraj družine oziroma med osebami, ki se med seboj dobro poznajo. V romanu Krst nad Triglavom tematizacija nasilja ni tako izrazita kot v kratkih zgodbah, kljub temu pa najdemo pojavnost psihičnega nasilja. Literarne osebe za dosego svojih ciljev uporabljajo manipulacijo, grožnje, poniževanje, zaničevanje. V romanu Kronosova žetev smo opazili tematizacijo psihičnega in fizičnega nasilja, slednjega v precej skrajnih, nečloveških oblikah. Z motivno-tematsko analizo smo ovrgli oziroma potrdili hipoteze, ki smo jih navedli v uvodu zaključnega dela, prav tako pa smo naredili primerjalno analizo tematizacije nasilja med vsemi izbranimi deli ter prikazali, kako lahko pojavnost kraja in časa vplivata na tematizacijo nasilja.In the final master thesis Poetics of Violence in Literature by Mojca Kumerdej we focused on the writer\u27s literary oeuvre. We have included four of her so far published works: two novels The Harvest of Chronos and The Baptism Over Mount Triglavtwo collections of short stories Dark substance and Fragma, as well as the author\u27s publication of individual stories. Our primary focus was a motif-thematic analysis of her works and the topic of violence. In the theoretical part of the thesis we made a brief overview of the writer\u27s biography, with the greatest attention dedicated to the forms and types of violence. With the help of a motif-thematic analysis of Mojca Kumerdej\u27s short prose we have found, that both psychological and physical thematisation of violence are common. Previously mentioned often happen within the family or between people who know each other well.. In the The Baptism Over Mount Triglav novel, the theme of violence is not as pronounced as in short prose. However psychic forms of violence are found where people use manipulation, threats, humiliation and contempt to achieve their goals. In the The Harvest of Chronos novel we notice the incidence of psychological and physical violence in rather extreme, brutal forms. With the motif-thematic analysis we rejected oppositely confirmed the hypotheses given in the introduction to the final thesis. Moreover we made a comparative analysis of the thematisation of violence among all selected works and showed how the occurrence of place and time can influence the thematisation of violence
Multilingual dataset of COVID tweets for relation-level metaphor analysis TCMeta 1.0
No full textTCMeta is a dataset of noun phrase constructions from COVID-related tweets, annotated for relation-level metaphor.
It contains 2,138 Slovene and 2,221 English instances in tab-separated tabular format .tsv, where each line presents a unique phrase under consideration, extracted from a COVID-related tweet. The primary annotations include the COVID metaphor label (whether the phrase expresses a metaphor relating to COVID), but also additional ones for idioms, metaphors not relating to COVID, or metaphors not evident on the relation-level.
The complete user tweet could not be published due to the ToS of the then Twitter platform. We recommend retrieving the text of the tweets via their IDs using the Hydrator tool [https://github.com/docnow/hydrator] or similar.
The dataset is further described in:

THE DEATH OF THE AUTHOR AND THE BIRTH OF THE SPECTATOR: AN EXAMPLE OF MINIMALISM
No full textPričujoče diplomsko delo je nastalo z namenom osvetliti obdobje minimalizma, ki s svojo estetsko enostavnostjo in čistostjo objektov odpira problematiko prostora umetnosti, njene izkušnje in, navsezadnje, tudi vprašanje pomembnosti avtorja, ki se zdi, da se v obdobju vedno večje redukcije in konceptualizacije umetnosti namerno izgubi. Z izhodiščem v novih radikalnih vzgibih, obravnavam na kratko – v primerih pojavov kot so: bela kocka, readymade, »smrt« avtorja, aktivacija prostora, participacija in položaj gledalca, umetniška neopredeljenost objektov – problematiko pomembnosti in moči razstavnega prostora, avtorstva in problema umetnosti same, originalnosti ter, končno, percepcije umetniškega dela, kjer je umetnost podana skozi teorijo Mauricea Merleau-Pontyja, kot dejanska resnica in kot najboljša možnost za njeno spoznanje in naše biti, ki se porodi iz prostora utelešenega bivanja. Vsi navedeni dejavniki so kot skupek neizbežno vodili v popolno ukinitev formalnih norm in v redukcijo, kjer se je zdelo, nasploh preseganje klasične tradicije, edino optimalno sredstvo za doseganje čimbolj neposredne in čiste izkušnje umetniškega objekta. Tako sem v osrednjem delu predstavila obdobje zvesto cilju redukcije v korist gledalčevi neposredni izkušnji resnice, ki je nastalo v 60.-tih letih prejšnjega stoletja, in bilo združeno pod imenom minimalizemnotranjo pestrost obdobja je prikazana z izhodišči, teorijami in umetniškimi deli Donalda Judda in Roberta Morrisa.The purpose of the following thesis was to shed light on the period of minimalism. With its aesthetic simplicity and purity of objects, minimalism problematizes space in art, the experience of art, and also the question of the significance of the author, which seems to be omitted intentionally in the period of reductive art. Based on new radical movements, I discuss in brief (with cases such as the White Cube, readymade, the death of the author, the activation of space, spectator participation and position, the artistic detachment of objects) the importance of the power of the exhibition venue, authorship, as well as the issue of art itself, its originality, and finally, the perception of a work of art. The theory of Maurice Merleau-Ponty was applied, where art represents the actual truth which arises from space, serving as the best chance for the realization of truth, as well as the realization of our own essence. As a set, all the stated factors inevitably led to the complete abolishment of nominal norms, as well as to reduction, where exceeding the classical period seemed as the only optimal means for reaching the utmost direct and pure experience of an art object. In the main part of the thesis, I presented minimalism, the period from the 1960s which was loyal to reduction in favor of the spectator’s direct experience of truth. I portrayed the inner diversity of the period with bases, theories, and works of art by Donald Judd and Robert Morris
