Description:
Monitoring of tectonic movements along three active faults of Dinaric (NW-SE trending) fault system in W Slovenia using TM 71 extensiometers was set up in 2004. After two and a half years of measurements clear trends of displacement were recorded. The average left-lateral displacement along a crack in the inner fault zone of the Idrija fault in Učja valley was reading 0.38 mm/year. Short term (10 months) rates were even greater and reached the value of 0.54 mm/year. Since the Idrija fault is considered generally to be dextral strike-slipping, the observed left-lateral displacement can be explained by variations in principle stress. Raša fault monitoring site at the foot of Vremščica Mt. established an average reverse uplift of hanging wall (SW) block of 0.24 mm/year and left-lateral displacement of 0.16 mm/year. Short term (9 months) vertical displacements reached the value of 0.53 mm/year. The inclined displacement is in agreement with geological and seismological observations. In the Postojna cave system two instruments were installed at the fault which extends parallely to Predjama fault zone. The average vertical displacement rate at Postojna 1 site was 0.01 mm/year. Both devices recorded similar reaction which can be attributed to 12 July, 2004 (Mw=5.2) earthquake with an epicentre 70 km away from the measuring site. Since there were no other stronger earthquakes in the vicinity and time span of monitoring, no other correlations were established with earthquake activity. The observed displacement rates along all three monitored faults of up to 0.5 mm/year are consistent with the regional deformation rate in W Slovenia established from GPS measurements which is of the order of 2 mm/year., Andrej Gosar, Stanka Šebela, Blahoslav Košťák and Josef Stemberk., and Obsahuje bibliografii

Description:
UK-Slovenian collaborative research connected to EU COST-Action 625 began in 2003 and has involved interdisciplinary research into the current activity, structural architecture and landscape expression of the Ravne and Idrija strike-slip fault systems in NW Slovenia. The Ravne fault may be the best exposed actively propagating strike-slip fault system in Europe and through combined structural fieldwork, earthquake seismology and airborne LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) surveys, a new understanding of the fault’s along-strike segmentation, three dimensional geometry and stepover zone kinematics has been gained. The Idrija Fault in contrast, is poorly exposed, but defines a regional lineament with an intensely brecciated fault core; it may have been responsible for the largest historical earthquake to have ever affected the region. High-resolution LiDAR images recently obtained for both fault systems allow for efficient focussed fieldwork and future work will be devoted to documenting the timing of previous earthquakes and the connectivity and displacement transfer between active faults at the NE corner of the Adria microplate., Dickson Cunningham, Andrej Gosar, Vanja Kastelic, Stephen Grebby and Kevin Tansey., and Obsahuje bibliografii

Description:
At the end of 2010 seven TM 71 extensometers, installed at or near the active faults in Slovenia, were in operation. Three of them are on the surface and four inside karst caves. The highest rates with stable sense of movements were observed on the Idrija fault. Average horizontal displacement rate was 0.24 mm/year. Short term rates were even greater and reached 0.54 mm/year. The Raša fault first experienced an uplift of the SW block of 0.16 mm/year, which was followed by a short-term down-slip of the same block at the rate of 0.37 mm/year. Later the sense of movement returned to uplift with a rate of 0.05 mm/year. The average horizontal displacement was 0.07 mm/year. The Kneža fault experienced very small average displacements (y=0.035 mm/year, z=0.03 mm/year and x=0.02 mm/year). Similar rates were observed in nearby Polog cave (y=0.015 mm/year, z=0.027 mm/year and x=0.016 mm/year), which is located close to the seismically active Ravne fault. For Kostanjevica cave, located near the Brežice fault, small average rates are characteristic (y=0.006 mm/year, z=0.017 mm/year and x=0.012 mm/year). In Postojna cave, located close to the Predjama fault, two monitoring sites are very stable with small tectonic movements, including general dextral horizontal movement of 0.05 mm from 2004 to 2010 (Postojna 1) and two significant short-term peaks of 0.08 mm (Postojna 1-y and Postojna 2-z)., Andrej Gosar, Stanka Šebela, Blahoslav Košťák and Josef Stemberk., and Obsahuje bibliografii

15. Scraps of the history of ethnology in Slovenia

Subject:
ethnology, Slovenia, 20th century, and history of ethnology
Language:
Czech
Description:
This paper summarizes the discussion of ethnology in Slovenia between ‘narodopisje’ and anthropology from the point of view of its theoretical and methodological issues. At the same time it delineates some characteristics of ethnology and folklore studies in Slovenia in the 20th century, whereby the discussion on the wider social implications is omitted. Considerations put forward here are limited to those disciplinary issues which are the fruit of self-reflexive and critical insights in ethnology, which enable to highlight the origins, the formation and changes of research patterns from predominant philological and cultural-historical roots of ‘narodopisje’ to anthropologically oriented contemporary research. Some general observations, a retrospective view of the status of theory and methodology, the tradition of ‘narodopisje’, the ‘farewell to folk life’, the new methodological horizons, the predicament of the ‘two-headed ethnology’ and recent anthropologization are considered. and Článek shrnuje debaty o etnologii ve Slovinsku, její vývoj od „národopisu“ {narodopisje) k antropologii, se zvláštním zřetelem k teoretickým a metodologickým problémům. Nastiňuje některé charakteristiky etnologie a folkloristiky ve Slovinsku ve 20. století, vyhýbá se ale diskusi o širších sociálních souvislostech. Omezuje se pouze na ty problémy disciplíny, které jsou produktem sebereflexe a kritického přístupu k etnologii, což umožňuje zdůraznit její počátky, formování a změny stylu výzkum, od převážně filologických a kulturně-historických kořenů „národopisu“ k antropologický orientovanému výzkumu v současnosti. Připojeny jsouněkteré obecné postřehy, a také retrospektivní pohled na status teorie a metodologie, úvahy o tradici „národopisu“, „rozloučení s lidovým životem“, o nových metodologických horizontech, dilematu „dvouhlavé etnologie" a aktuální antropologizaci.

17. The role of gender in accusations of witchcraft: the case of eastern Slovenia

Subject:

Language:
Czech
Description:
The paper deals with the role of gender in the context of witchcraft. It focuses on the situation in a rural area in eastern Slovenia, where the author and her students researched witchcraft in 2000 and 2001. The meaning of a gender in witchcraft accusations is presented with respect to various levels and types of witch (social level - neighborhood witches, village witches; supernatural level – night witches; counter witches). Among neighborhood witches (about whom people believe that they perform some kind of magic: placing eggs etc. in the hope that they will hurt neighbors; intentional praise), women are typically assumed to be guilty; men appear only in the subcategory of people with evil eye. Similar holds for all the subcategories of village witches, except for those who earned their reputation because of the assumption of their possession of a book of magic (where men predominate). Night witches (in the form of lights or vague presences which make it difficult for people to find their way) are always female (they are spoken about using the feminine gender; when they are recognized as people from the village, they are always women). In contrast, the ratio of men to women among counterwitches, to whom people turned for help against witches, rises dramatically. The most influential counterwitch whom people visited in this area was a men. The relationship between the sexes can also be seen through an analysis of (migratory) legends about witches whereby many of them reveal a concealed misogyny.
