Lase Induced Brakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) and Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) were utilized for microspatian nallyses of a fossil bear (Ursus arctos) tooth dentine. The distribution of selected trace elemnts (Sr, Ba, Fe) was measured on a 26 mm x 15 mm large and 3 mm thick transversal cross section of canine tooth, The Na and Mg content together with the distribution of matrix elemnts (Ca, P) was aslo monitored within this area. It is shown that LIBS, similarly to LA-ICP-MS can be successfully utilized for fast, spatially-resolved analysis of fossi teeth samples. Rate of Sr and Ca, Sr and Ba tracers were recognized and it is possible to say, thet these elemnts are changing its concentration in according to the seasonal increments of dentine. The concetration is lower in winter, when the bear is in his hibernation, contrary to summe, which is affuent for its substances. Secondly,concentration of Sr. shows us a seasonal migration between the place of hibernating and territory where bear searched for feed. From measurement of concentrations it is possible to claim, that the bear was hunted in his season of searching for feed, when he was ensuring his fat reserfe for winter. From archaeological pint of iew, on the base of these measurements it was possible to reconstract the ehtology of the fossil brown bear, i.e the nutrition, health and migration., Miriam Nývltová Fišáková ...

Postava baronky Sidonie Nádherné (1885–1950), mecenášky umění a přítelkyně literátů Karla Krause a Rainera Marii Rilka, jež byla spjata se zámkem ve Vrchotových Janovicích, vzbuzovala sice zájem literárních badatelů a historiků, donedávna však zůstávala ve stínu zejména obou slavných mužů. Spisovatelka a publicistka Alena Wagnerová podle recenzentky přináší nový pohled v tom, že žánr kulturněhistorické biografie propojuje s přístupem umírněného feminismu a svou hrdinku činí vskutku hlavním objektem zájmu. Její kniha, původně vydaná německy pod titulem Das Leben der Sidonie Nádherný: Eine Biographie (Hamburg 2003), je zároveň sondou do života společnosti, když prostřednictvím životního příběhu Sidonie Nádherné zachycuje dobové tendence, tužby a souvislosti., Sidonie Nádherná (1885–1950), a baroness and patroness of the arts and a love interest of the great writers Karl Kraus and Rainer Maria Rilke, has been closely linked to the manor house in Vrchotovy Janovice (Janowitz), central Bohemia. Though she has attracted the interest of scholars of literature and historians, she has until recently remained in the shadow of her two famous admirers. In the work under review (the Czech translation of Das Leben der Sidonie Nádherný. Eine Biographie, Hamburg, 2003), the writer Alena Wagnerová provides, according to the reviewer, a new view, combining the genre of cultural-historical biography with moderate feminism, truly making her protagonist the centre of interest. Her book is also a probe into a society, and by means of the life story of Sidonie Nádherná she depicts the trends, hopes, and context of the period., and [autor recenze] Milena Lenderová.
