La villa imperial de Potosí. Wirtschaftliche, politische und kulturelle Verflechtungen einer frühneuzeitlichen Weltstadt im Hochandenraum (16.-17. Jahrhundert)
No full textDie Minenstadt Potosí, auf 4000 Metern im kargen Hochgebirge des heutigen Bolivien gelegen, erreichte in der ersten Hälfte des 17. Jahrhunderts eine Bevölkerungszahl von 160.000 und war damit eine der größten Städte weltweit. Angesichts seiner reichhaltigen Silbervorkommen entwickelte sich der Silberberg ab der Mitte des 16. Jahrhunderts zum Lebensnerv der kolonialen Wirtschaft und zum Inbegriff imperialer Machtfülle der Spanischen Monarchie. Der Aufsatz untersucht zunächst die Entfaltung der miteinander verwobenen südamerikanischen, transatlantischen und globalen Handelsbeziehungen. Anschließend wird die Entwicklung und Verwaltung der europäische Siedler, amerikanische Ureinwohner und afrikanische Sklaven bevölkernden Kolonialgesellschaft untersucht. In einem letzten Schritt werden Architektur und Kunstschaffen in der Stadt als Zeugnisse transkultureller Verflechtung dargestellt.The mining town of Potosí, located at an altitude of 4000 meters in a rugged landscape of the Bolivian Andes, reached a population of 160.000 during the first half of the 17th century and was therefore one of the largest cities in the world. Due to its rich deposits of silver, the mine became the lifeblood of the colonial economy and the imperial reputation of the Spanish Monarchy. Firstly, this paper addresses Potosí’s role in the unfolding of close-knit commercial ties in South America, the transatlantic trade and the global economy. Secondly, it portrays the development and administration of the colonial society, composed of European settlers, indigenous people, and African slaves. Thirdly, the city’s architecture and art production will be examined as witnesses of transcultural entanglements
Characteristics of fragmented aurora-like emissions (FAEs) observed on Svalbard
Full text linkThis study analyses the observations of a new type of small-scale aurora-like feature, which is further referred to as fragmented aurora-like emission(s) (FAEs). An all-sky camera captured these FAEs on three separate occasions in 2015 and 2017 at the Kjell Henriksen Observatory near the arctic town of Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway. A total of 305 FAE candidates were identified. They seem to appear in two categories-randomly occurring individual FAEs and wave-like structures with regular spacing between FAEs alongside auroral arcs. FAEs show horizontal sizes typically below 20 km, a lack of field-aligned emission extent, and short lifetimes of less than a minute. Emissions were observed at the 557.7 nm line of atomic oxygen and at 673.0 nm (N2; first positive band system) but not at the 427.8 nm emission of NC 2 or the 777.4 nm line of atomic oxygen. This suggests an upper limit to the energy that can be produced by the generating mechanism. Their lack of field-aligned extent indicates a different generation mechanism than for aurorae, which are caused by particle precipitation. Instead, these FAEs could be the result of excitation by thermal ionospheric electrons. FAE observations are seemingly accompanied by elevated electron temperatures between 110-120 km and increased ion temperatures at F-region altitudes. One possible explanation for this is Farley-Buneman instabilities of strong local currents. In the present study, we provide an overview of the observations and discuss their characteristics and potential generation mechanisms.</p

Šime Budinić in Zadar, 1556-69: The Topography of Everyday Life of a Renaissance Humanist
Full text linkU ovom radu ispituju se obiteljske veze i svakodnevne interakcije Šime Budi¬nića (1530/35-1600) od 1540-ih do 1565. Do sada je pozornost proučavatelja bila usmjerena na njegova kasnija teološka i humanistička nastojanja, a malo je bilo poznato o njegovim formativnim godinama i desetljeću koje je proveo radeći kao bilježnik. Na temelju novih arhivskih podataka uvećava se naše znanje o njemu i pružaju se novi uvidi u rano razdoblje života toga dalmatinskog humanista.
Kombinirajući prethodno neiskorištene primarne izvore, tj. zapise Budinića i njegovih kolega bilježnika, ovaj se prilog koristi pristupima što su ih tijekom posljednje četvrtine 20. st. razvili društveni povjesničari (mikropovijest, All¬tagsgeschichte), da bi se na taj način rekonstruirali opseg i dubina Budinićeva obiteljskog naslijeđa, poslovnih veza i socijalne interakcije. Takvim pristupom došlo se do četiriju glavnih uvida. Prvo, prateći trag Budinićevih najbližih obi¬teljskih odnosa u bilježničkim zapisima, utvrđena je lokacija glavne kuće obitelji Budinić: ona se nalazila u neposrednoj blizini glavne zadarske ulice i katedrale. Drugo, osim takva, središnjeg smještaja u gradu, Budinić je bio blizak vodećim članovima zadarskog društva, među kojima su utjecajni posrednici u crkvenim poslovima, kao što je Sanctus de Sanctis, a važan je i utjecaj zadarskog odvjet¬nika Hieronymusa Cortesiusa, rodom Rabljanina, koji je u obitelji Budinić bio odgajatelj. Ovi aspekti upućuju na treći važan čimbenik, a to je uloga određenih pojedinaca, poput spomenutih Sanctusa de Sanctisa i Hieronymusa Cortesiusa. Sasvim je sigurno da su oni igrali veliku ulogu u životima članova obitelji Budinić, ali njihovi potencijalni utjecaji i dalje su nedovoljno istraženi. Napokon, pozorna i sustavna analiza dostupnih bilježničkih zapisa otkrila je jedinstveni slučaj u ko¬jem se Šime Budinić i Sanctus de Sanctis pojavljuju zajedno, pri čemu je njihov odnos označen latinskom riječi nepos. Iako ona može značiti ili nećaka ili unuka, sustavno proučavanje sačuvanih bilježničkih zapisa koji se tiču članova obitelji Budinić, tj. Klare i njezinih sinova Antuna i Stjepana, nije iznijelo nijedan slučaj u kojem se Šime Budinić spominje u kakvu obiteljskom odnosu. To sugerira da je Urlićev početni prijevod (»ujak«) možda bio bliži zbilji od Antoljakove reinter¬pretacije (»djed«) četrdeset godina kasnije. Istodobno, zbir prikupljenih podataka, poput preciznih naznaka o bračnom ugovoru Klare de Sanctis i Mihovila Budinića sklopljenom u Dubrovniku 1521. godine, nudi niz polazišta za buduća istraživanja.
Fokusirajući se na prostorni raspon, društvene odnose i odnose među sta¬novnicima Zadra, ovaj rad rekreira Budinićevu »topografiju svakodnevnog živo¬ta«, nudeći tako pragmatičan dalji put koji omogućuje cjelovitu rekonstrukciju aktivnosti pojedinca i ujedno otvara niz polazišta za buduća istraživanja unutar (i onkraj) mletačkoga Jadrana.This essay examines the everyday life of Šime Budinić (1530/35-1600) and his assumed family ties from the 1540s to 1565. Scholarly attention so far has focused on his later theological and humanistic endeavours, and little is known about his formative years and the decade he spent working as a notary. Based on new archival evidence, this essay adds to our knowledge about him and provides new insights into the early life and times of this Dalmatian humanist.
Combining previously unknown primary sources written by Budinić and his fellow notaries, the present contribution utilises approaches developed by social historians during the last quarter of the twentieth century (microhistory, Alltagsgeschichte) to reconstruct the extent and depth of Budinić’s interactions. This approach unearthed new evidence of the Budinić family’s possessions and ties to Zadar’s urban elites. Investigation of the notarial records revealed a complete absence of archival evidence linking Šime to the rest of the Budinić family, which suggests that Šime Urlić’s initial interpretation may be deemed more plausible than Stjepan Antoljak’s later amendments. In addition, this approach is used to reconstruct Šime Budinić’s »topography of everyday life«, his activities revealing a number of points of departure for future research within (and beyond) the Venetian Adriatic
