Svetovna zgodovina na »mrgoleči sliki«: Stephan Kessler in Rešitev Dunaja leta 1683
No full textThe representation of battle panoramas was a widespread genre in 17th-century painting when skilled artists became sought-after specialists working for many courts in Central Europe. Throughout the 17th century, continual Otto- man aggressions gave a new actuality to the battle genre. Stephan Kessler, a late 17th-century artist from the South Tyrolean town of Brixen, who lived far away from the great artistic centres, but was well informed of developments there, successfully made his way in this field, depicting the liberation of Vienna in 1683 on colourful, multi-figured canvasses in the tradition of 16th-century ‘Wimmelbilder’. As an artist of modest talents, Kessler regularly referred to Rubens, whose compositions came to new life through well-known reproductive prints. A representation of the Vienna battle from 1683 held at the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum, Vienna, was attributed to Kessler, as well as a stylistically closely related painting of the same motif at Schloss Friedenstein, Gotha. Recent research of the Viennese canvas confirmed this hypothesis when Kessler’s monogram came to light.Panoramske upodobitve bitk so bile v slikarstvu 17. stoletja zelo razširjen žanr; v njem izurjeni slikarji so postali iskani specialisti, delujoči za številne srednjeevropske dvore. Zaradi stalnih turških napadov so postale upodobitve bitk v 17. stoletju ponovno aktualne in dosegle visoko kakovostno raven. Kljub oddaljenosti od velikih umetnostnih središč, a dobro seznanjen z njihovimi dosežki, si je Stephan Kessler, slikar poznega 17. stoletja iz južnotirolskega Briksna, uspešno utrl pot na tem področju z upodobitvama osvoboditve Dunaja leta 1683 na barvitih mnogofigu- ralnih platnih v tradiciji »mrgolečih slik« (Wimmelbilder) 16. stoletja. Kot umetnik skromnih talentov se je Kessler redno opiral na Rubensa, čigar kompozicije so na novo zaživele s pomočjo dobro znanih prevodnih grafik. Kesslerju sta bili pripisani upodobitev bitke pred Dunajem leta 1683 v Vojnozgodovinskem muzeju na Dunaju in sli- ka istega motiva v gradu Friedenstein v Gothi, ki je dunajskemu platnu tudi slogovno zelo blizu. Atribucijo je potrdil Kesslerjev monogram, najden med nedavno raziskavo na dunajski sliki
Contributions to Baltic-Slavonic Relations in Literature and Languages
No full textAs much as scholars of Baltic Studies always claim independence for the languages and literature it involves, it is evident that the Baltic and Slavic languages and literature have been and still are in latent contact and exchange. The historical processes had led to interwoven but distinct cultural spheres `on the border.' Our interdisciplinary collection of essays follows several borderlines: Teresa Dalecka (University of Vilnius) discusses the Polish literature in Lithuania since 1990 and the environment that created it. Stephan Kessler (University of Greifswald) sketches a framework of narration and applies it to a story written by Maks Fraj who lives in Lithuania but is from Odessa by origin. Anna Stankeviča, Inna Dvorecka, and Jekaterina Gusakova (each from the University of Daugavpils) give an overview of Latvia's Russophone book market and analyse Vadim Vernik's formula fiction. Sergei Kruk (Stradiņš University in Rīga) discusses the Latvian concept of linguistic integration that roots in the romantic notions of social homogeneity and language as being a shibboleth for successful integration. Nicole Nau (University of Poznań) highlights four techniques for the integration of Slavic verbs and verbal derivational affixes into Latgalian, based on material from the 19th to the 21st century. Anastasija Kostiučenko (University of Greifswald), investigates how the concept of hybridity can be used to describe and better understand the language area and identity issues in Southeast Lithuania

Materials for: Assessing Epistemic Beliefs Regarding the Co-construction of Knowledge: Implications for Team Science.
No full textScientific collaboration is necessary as research grows increasingly more complex. Research focusing on the Science of Team Science (SciTS) seeks to better understand and facilitate collaborative research in science. The current work provides new empirical understandings on epistemic beliefs about group knowledge or how a group collectively comes to know something through the development of the Epistemic Beliefs about the Co-Construction of Knowledge (EB-CCK) inventory. Using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, the present study established an 18-item inventory composed of two factors: one capturing a more collaborative mindset and one capturing a more individual mindset about the co-construction of knowledge.

Der Südtiroler Barockmaler Stephan Kessler in Schwaben: Zwei biblische Gastmähler und eine Arche Noah
No full textDas sog. "Neue Schloss" in Westheim (Stadt Neusäß, Kreis Augsburg) beherbergt zwei zusammengehörige Bilder mit biblischen Gastmählern (Gastmahl im Haus des Pharisäers Simon; Christus im Haus der Schwestern Martha und Maria), die mit der Jahreszahl 1669 und den Initialen SK versehen sind. Karl Kosel glaubte 1988, in den Bildern die Hand der Johanna Sibylla Küsel erkennen zu können, die einer namhaften Augsburger Kupferstecherfamilie angehörte. Stil und Bildanlagen sprechen aber eher dafür, von den Initialen SK auf Stephan Kessler zu schließen, geboren 1622 in Donauwörth und von 1643 bis zu seinem Tod 1700 in Brixen ansässig. Auch der von Kosel mit den Westheimer Bildern in Verbindung gebrachte und ebenfalls für Küsel beanspruchte "Einzug in die Arche Noah" im Bischöflichen Ordinariat in Augsburg kann Kessler bzw. seiner Werkstatt zugeschrieben werden. Während über die Provenienz der Westheimer Bilder nichts bekannt ist, handelt es sich beim "Einzug" um eines der Bilder, die der Augsburger Domherr Johann Martin Miller in den 1690er Jahren bei der von ihm gestifteten Kreuzkapelle des Augsburger Doms hatte aufhängen lassen

Comparison of the double loop knot stitch and Kessler stitch for Achilles tendon repair: A biomechanical cadaver study.
No full textTendon elongation after Achilles tendon (AT) repair is associated with the clinical outcome. Reliable suture techniques are essential to reduce gap formations and to allow early mobilization. Cyclic loading conditions represent the repetitive loading in rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to compare the Kessler stitch and double loop knot stitch (DLKS) in a cyclic loading program focussing on gap formation. Sixteen human cadaveric ATs were transected and sutured using either the Kessler stitch or DLKS (eight matched pairs). The suture-tendon configurations were subjected to cyclic loading and additional ultimate load to failure testing using the Zwick 1446 universal testing machine. Each AT survived cyclic loading, with a mean gap formation less than 5 mm after 1000 cycles. The mechanical properties of the Kessler stitch and DLKS were not significantly different after cyclic loading with a mean displacement of 4.57 mm (± 1.16) for the Kessler stitch and 4.85 mm (± 1.14) for the DLKS (P = .76). There were no significant differences in the ultimate load testing (P = .85). Both bioprotective techniques prevent excessive gaping in cyclic testing when tendon loading is moderate. Our data and those from literature of gap formation in cyclic and ultimate loading allow the conclusion, that early aggressive AT loading after repair (e.g. full weightbearing) overstrain simple as well as complex suture configurations. Initial intraoperative tightening of the knots (preloading) before locking is important to decrease postoperative elongation
