Studie Jany Spáčilové se zabývá mešními kompozicemi hudebního skladatele Antonia Caldary, dochovanými v moravských hudebních sbírkách., This article is dedicated to the problem of the erroneous attribution of authorship of Masses to Antonio Caldara in Moravian collections of church music. It contains information about extant records of Masses by Caldara and methodological discussion concerning the reliability of sources with respect to authorship. Also included is an overview of Caldara sources of Moravian provenience, including both extant music and entries in period inventories. Attention is dedicated both to compositions by others regarded in Moravia as works by Antonio Caldara, and to works by Caldara under the names of other composers. Works identified as having been written by other composers are presented in the form of tables, including signatures of all concordant sources found so far in European libraries. The purpose of the article is to give an idea of the standing of Caldara’s works in the repertoire of Moravian church music and to prepare material for a future thematic catalog of Moravian sources of Masses by Caldara., Jana Spáčilová., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 75, anglický abstrakt 45.
Zcela jedinečný projev uměleckého prostředí na Moravě v poslední třetině 15. století představují dochovaná sochařská díla, jejichž slohové kořeny bezprostředně vycházejí z porýnské a rakouské tvorby vlámského sochaře Nicolause Gerhaerta z Leydenu (†1473). Skupina gerhaertovsky orientovaných sochařských děl v tomto regionu, patřící k nejkvalitnějším pracím pozdně gotického sochařství v českých zemích, dnes čítá přibližně dvě desítky soch dochovaných v oblastech především Brna, Jihlavy a Olomouce. Nepochybně představuje nejširší základnu tohoto sochařského proudu na našem území. Studie se zabývá dvěma dosud neznámými řezbami - Madonou ze hřbitovní kaple sv. Rocha ve Strážnici (dnes v kostele Nanebevzetí Panny Marie ve Strážnici) a Madonou z kostela sv. Petra a Pavla ve Svojanově (dnes v kostele sv. Mikuláše ve Starém Svojanově), které představují velmi cenné protějšky k nejvýznamnějším skulpturám celé skupiny, jako jsou známá Madona z Olomouce zvaná Primavesi, Madona z Brna (Moravská galerie v Brně) a sousoší Olivetské hory v Modřicích u Brna. Na základě stylového rozboru jsou naznačeny vazby těchto prací k domácím a zahraničním, především rakouským památkám gerhaertovského sochařství sedmdesátých let 15. století. Ve skupině těchto moravských soch jsou zřetelné velmi úzké vzájemné vazby a vývojové tendence, které svědčí o homogenním charakteru celé skupiny. Vznik těchto prací je situován do dílny anonymního řezbáře tzv. Mistra Madony z Olomouce zvané Primavesi, který patří k nejvýraznějším následovníkům Gerhaerta z Leydenu ve střední Evropě. Jeho činnost v moravském (brněnském) prostředí lze předpokládat od konce sedmdesátých do počátku devadesátých let 15. století. and A rather unique expression of the art sphere in Moravia during the last third of the 15th century is to be found in a group of preserved sculptural works whose stylistic roots derive directly from the Austrian Rhine Valley work of the Flemish sculptor Nicolaus Gerhaert of Leyden (†1473). The group of Gerhaert-oriented sculpture in the region, which represents the highest-quality workds of late Gothic sculpture in the Czech Lands, consists today of about two dozen statues preserved primarily in the areas of Brno, Jihlava and Olomouc. They doubtless represent the most extensive fount of this sculptural trend in the Czech Republic. This study deals with two heretofore unknown carvings - the Madonna from the graveyard chapel of St Roch in Strážnice (today the church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Strážnice) and the Madonna from the church of SS Peter and Paul in Svojanov (today the church of St Nicholas in Starý Svojanov), which represent valuable counterparts to the group's key sculptures, such as the well-known Madonna of Olomouc known as the Primavesi, the Madonna of Brno (Moravian Gallery in Brno) and the Mount of Olives sculptural group at Modřice u Brna. Based on a stylistic analysis, the study indicates the relationships between, on the one hand, these works and other domestic, and foreign - chiefly Austrian - works and, on the other, the artefacts of cultural heritage represented by the Gerhaert sculptures of the 1470s. In this group of Moravian sculptures, very close mmutual ties and developmental tendencies are evident, which testify to the homogeneous character of the entire group. These works are traced back to the workshop of an anonymous carver known as the Master of the Madonna of Olomouc, known as the Primavesi, who was one of the most distinctive artists following in the footsteps of Gerhaert of Leyden's art in Central Europe. His activities in the region of Moravia (Brno) may be inferred to have lasted from the late 1470s to the early 1490s.
The so-called “invariance under twisting” for twisted tensor products of algebras is a result stating that, if we start with a twisted tensor product, under certain circumstances we can “deform” the twisting map and we obtain a new twisted tensor product, isomorphic to the given one. It was proved before that a number of independent and previously unrelated results from Hopf algebra theory are particular cases of this theorem. In this article we show that some more results from literature are particular cases of invariance under twisting, for instance a result of Beattie-Chen-Zhang that implies the Blattner-Montgomery duality theorem.
This communication gives some extensions of the original Bühlmann model. The paper is devoted to semi-linear credibility, where one examines functions of the random variables representing claim amounts, rather than the claim amounts themselves. The main purpose of semi-linear credibility theory is the estimation of µ0(θ) = E[f0(Xt+1)|θ] (the net premium for a contract with risk parameter θ) by a linear combination of given functions of the observable variables: X ′ = (X1, X2, . . . , Xt). So the estimators mainly considered here are linear combinations of several functions f1, f2, . . . , fn of the observable random variables. The approximation to µ0(θ) based on prescribed approximating functions f1, f2, . . . , fn leads to the optimal non-homogeneous linearized estimator for the semi-linear credibility model. Also we discuss the case when taking fp = f for all p to find the optimal function f. It should be noted that the approximation to µ0(θ) based on a unique optimal approximating function f is always better than the one in the semi-linear credibility model based on prescribed approximating functions: f1, f2, . . . , fn. The usefulness of the latter approximation is that it is easy to apply, since it is sufficient to know estimates for the structure parameters appearing in the credibility factors. Therefore we give some unbiased estimators for the structure parameters. For this purpose we embed the contract in a collective of contracts, all providing independent information on the structure distribution. We close this paper by giving the semi-linear hierarchical model used in the applications chapter.
Since the 1950s Spain has developed a set of policies aimed at stimulating ownership through subsidies mainly in the form of interest rates or mortgage quotas to developers and households neglecting other forms of housing provision, for instance social rent. That system provided one off benefit to the developer and/or the purchaser and could not be reused to help other households. The financial crisis in 2008 evidenced the weakness of the Spanish housing system in providing affordable and secure shelter by means other than homeownership. The existent housing provision system failed to avoid the large number of evictions while simultaneously banks became owners of a large amount of empty dwellings. To some extent, the severity of the situation exerted considerable political pressure to devise a new framework for action to alleviate the housing problem in Spain. In this paper based on the post -crisis evidence we argue the need to reformulate approaches to provide adequate and affordable housing for certain collectives in Spain.
