    Structural and Spectroscopic Properties of Benzoylpyridine‐Based Hydrazones

    No full text
    Photochromic hydrazones are attracting the attention in the field of photochromic systems especially due to their P-type character. To understand the structural features and their correlation with the spectroscopic data, UV-Vis, vibrational and ellipsometry spectroscopic techniques are employed with the support of density functional theory (DFT) calculations to three hydrazone derivatives based on benzoylpyridine. Interestingly, analysis of the structure shows the presence of two distinct rotamers around the pyridine ring with different energy and the well-defined conjugation path that changes due to E to Z isomerization especially in the hydrazone -C=N-NH part of the skeleton. IR and Raman spectra are analyzed, showing a higher selectivity in the Z form; moreover, the comparison with the normal modes proves the effect of the reaction on the backbone structure. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions, especially in the case of the Raman spectrum. The molecular polarization also changes from E to Z forms as predicted by DFT calculations. Spectroscopic ellipsometry on thin films of TOPAS doped with 10%wt of the dimethylamino hydrazone derivative is used to prove such change at the molecular level. A modulation of the refractive index is observed, and it is correlated with the concentration of the active moiety and the calculated electronic polarizabilities

    Unsymmetrical benzothiazole-based dithienylethene photoswitches

    Herein, we investigate the structure–property relationships in a new series of benzothiazole based unsymmetrical hexafluorocyclopentene dithienylethenes (DTEs) and compare the results with the known facts for symmetric diarylethenes (DAEs). We reveal high photocyclization efficiency resulting from a significant shift of ground state equilibrium to the antiparallel conformation and a barrierless excited state pathway to conical intersection, which remains unperturbed even in polar solvents for most of the prepared DTEs. Furthermore, we uncover that the rate of back thermal cycloreversion correlates clearly more with the central C–C bond-length in the transition state than with the central C–C bond-length in the ground state of the cyclic form. Finally, our detailed vibrational spectral analysis of studied DTEs points out significant changes in Raman and infrared spectra during photoswitching cycles which pave the way for a non-destructive readout of stored information

    Razmatra se jezik teksta prve poznate glagoljičke početnice (transkribirane latinicom), što ju je krajem 14. st. u jednom svom latinskom kodeksu zapisao tadašnji profesor pariške Sorbonne Juraj iz Slavonije. Svojim se jezičnim crtama početnica uklapa u korpus tekstova pisanih hrvatskim tipom crkvenoslavenskoga jezika, što ga obilježavaju neki čakavski elementi.The author analyses language characteristics of the first known Glagolitic Primer that has been recorded in the Latin manuscript codex of the end of the 14th century by the professor of the Sorbonne (Paris) Juraj of Slavonia (Georgius de Sclavonia, Georges d 'Esclavnie). The primer contains the Glagolitic alphabet with the names and numerical value of the letters as well as the most important Christian prayers. All texts have been transcribed in the French Latin script of the time. The prayers are written in a typical Croatian Church Slavonic recension and some obvious traits of the Čakavian substrate. Other records by Juraj in this codex point to its non-Čakavian origin

    JURAJ KRIŽANIĆ’S SLAVIC IDEA

    No full text
    This contribution by the prominent historian among those dealing with life and work of Juraj Križanić presents the text the author read at the scientific gathering held in USA on November 6, 1981. Here it is published together with the accompanying notes. The main point of the paper is presentation of Križanić’s »Slavic ideology«, its »roots, parallels, and scope«. The latter should return to the enslaved South Slavs, with the help of the Russian czar, their state independency and free them all from foreign influences, mostly German. The utmost aim would be that Russia, after establishing church unity with Rome, engages in restoring also the Greek church to this unity

    U ovome se radu autor bavi velečasnim Andrijom Marijićem, sinovcem svećenika Jurja Zubine, koji je od pokojnoga strica, popa glagoljaša, naslijedio obilno imanje. Službovao je u crkvi sv. Šime i sv. Marije te također bio kanonikom kaptola zadarske katedrale. Bio je i “mansionarius” u katedrali. Ubirao je desetine u župi Blato i raspolagao većim bogatstvom. Vrijedno bi bilo tragati i dalje za podatcima o, bez sumnje, vrijednom svećeniku Andriji Marijiću, sinovcu Jurja Zubine, svećenika “hrvatske knjige”.On the basis of archival sources the author presents minute facts about the priest Andrina Marijić. Andrija’s father was Radoslav the brother of the priest Juraj Zubina. Juraj Zubina, the Glagolitic priest’s grandfather’s brother Peter was also a priest. This is proof that already in the Middle Ages it was a common practice that within certain families some of the children were chosen to enter the clergy and become priests. Andrija Marijić lived in the city of Zadar and served as priest in various churches. He was accepted as a good confessor. He had a solid grounding in material goods and on a number of occasions he showed special gratitude towards his uncle the late Juraj Zubina, the priest “of the Croatian book”. Like his grand-grandfather’s brother Peter and his uncle Juraj Zubina he made a solid income collecting tithes

    U ovome se radu pokušava dati pregled mnogobrojnih i raznolikih odraza svetačkog imena Juraj u hrvatskome antroponimijskom sustavu s osobitim naglaskom na područje Zažablja (prostora između rječice Misline, istočno od Metkovića, i zapadnih granica nekadašnje Dubrovačke Republike, a danas općine Dubrovačko primorje, te prostora od Hrasna na sjeveru do Neuma na jugu) i Popova (jugozapadne Hercegovine). Na temelju odabrane literature i autorova terenskog istraživanja nastoje se iznijeti i neke izvanjezične (poglavito povijesne i sociolingvističke) činjenice koje su uzrok takvu stanju.The author tries to give an overview of different reflections of the saint’s name Juraj in Croatian anthroponimy on the basis of sources and data collected during fieldwork (sometimes even in the name formula of a single person, e.g. Zȍran Etẽrović Kalajūrȅ Zȗra). Special emphasis is given to the Zažablje-Popovo Area. The popularity of St. Juraj, the position of Croatia on the borderline between the Christian West and East (the relationship of personal names Juraj and/or Đur[a]đ with the names Georgije and Đorđe), different substrate and adstrate elements and migrations (Zorzi, Đerđa, Jorga, Kalađurđ, Jurađ) as well as the interfusion of early Croatian beliefs and Christianity (the relationship of St. Juraj – Perun) caused very early (from the 11th century), numerous and heterogeneous reflections of this Saint’s name in the Croatian anthroponimic system

    Rad donosi kratak uvod u život i značenje srednjovjekovnoga hrvatskoga svećenika, teologa i književnika europskoga glasa Jurja iz Slavonije (rođen oko 1355. i 1360. u Brežicama [današnja Slovenija], a umro 1416. u Toursu [Francuska]). Humanističku i teološku izobrazbu stekao je u Parizu, gdje je predavao na Sorboni i u Toursu. Zatim se daje kratak uvid u latinsku i francusku inačicu najvažnijeg Jurjeva djela, koje u hrvatskom prijevodu glasi »Dvorac djevičanstva«. U prilogu se donosi prvi hrvatski prijevod trećeg poglavlja spomenutog djela.Georges the Slav, who was also known by his Latin name Georgius de Sclavonia or his French name Gorges d’Escavonie, was born in the mid fourteenth century (between 1355 and 1360) in Brežice – presently in the Republic of Slovenia. Although he mostly lived in France, where he died in 1416, his work as priest and writer is not very well known. In this contribution author implies several possible variations of his name (Juraj Slovinac, Juraj Hrvatin, Juraj Hrvatinić etc.). Moreover, the article covers his humanistic education in Paris, his scientific work at Sorbonne and his literate, cultural and pastoral work in Tours. His most important literate work is »Castle of virginity«, which was originally written in Latin in 1411 under the title »De virginitate tuenda«. After this Georges has translated his work in French under the title »Le chasteau de virginite«. The French edition was published only in 1505 and was considered as a considerable contribution to the French literature and theology. In the appendix of this article author delivers a Croatian translation of the third chapter of this Georges tractate

    Autor na temelju arhivskih podataka iznosi u kratkim crtama zanimljiv tijek života svećenika Jurja Zubine, glagoljaša. Brat njegova djeda bio je svećenik don Petar koji je službovao u Blatu pokraj Zadra, a njegov sinovac, sin Radoslava, brata Jurjeva, bio je svećenik Andrija Marijić. Juraj Zubina isticao se svojim svećeničkim radom, a i neobično bogatim materijalnim položajem. Pomagao je vjernicima, napisao je barem dvije vlastite oporuke i bilježio oporuke vjernika. Rado je prihvaćan kao ispovjednik vjernika, hodočastio je za sebe i za druge u udaljena hodočasnička svetišta. Posuđivao je novac i davao zemlje na obradu, te se isticao se materijalnim stanjem. Vrlo se često u dokumentima navodi da je “de littera sclava” – glagoljaš, ali ima i dokumenata koji ne upotrebljavaju taj termin. Juraj Zubina, svećenik glagoljaš, živio je u Zadru cijeli svoj, po svemu izgleda, dug život. Grad Zadar nam se i kroz tu osobu pokazuje kao glagoljaški centar.On the basis of archival data the author briefly outlines the interesting course of life of the priest Juraj Zubina, a Glagolitic priest. Juraj Zubina’s grandfather’s brother was the priest don Peter who served in Blato nearby Zadar. His nephew, the son of Radoslav who was Juraj’s brother, was the priest Andrija Marijić. Juraj Zubina was remarkable not only for his pastoral work but also because of his unusually rich material position. He helped his parishioners, he wrote at least two of his own wills and he recorded the wills of his parishioners. He was readily accepted as a confessor, made pilgrimages for himself and for others to faraway pilgrimage destinations. He lent money and leased land to be tilled. His material wealth was exceptional. In various documents he is referred to as “de littera sclava” – a Glagolitic priest, whereas there are a number of documents which do not employ this term. Juraj Zubina, the Glagolitic priest, lived all his life (a long life indeed) in Zadar. The city of Zadar turns out to be a Glagolitic center

    Relationship Author, Actor and Character

    No full text
    The work deals with the relationship between author, actor and character. The whole piece is divided into three major chapters; each of them discusses one of the constituent elements of this relationship. The analysis is based on the Charlie Kaufman?s film and screenplay Synecdoche, New York and, also, works with Six Characters in Search of an Author and Zeno's Conscience. The aim of this work is to get the final form of the character captured by the author, and interpreted by the actor in front of the camera. I am searching for the perfect character, if that exists. I write about the subtle movement of a character from the world of fantasy to our real world and also about the dialogue held between the character with both author and actor
