Allan Langdale: Cyprus Archive
September 28, 2011 by artstor
St George of the Greeks; Interior apses and vaulting, 14th century. Famagusta (Ammochostos, Gazimagusa), northern Cyprus. Allan Langdale Digital Archive of Cypriot Art and Architecture. © Allan Langdale 2008.
ARTstor is sharing more than 3,300 images of the historical architecture of Cyprus by Allan Langdale in the Digital Library. This collection was compiled between 2006 and 2008 and focuses on the lesser known and, in some cases, endangered architecture and archaeological sites of northern Cyprus. The archive includes Bronze Age sites such as Enkomi and the Tombs of the Kings, and the early Christian basilicas of Salamis. A significant portion of the collection is dedicated to the Byzantine architecture of the region, including examples that have received less attention from researchers since the embargo imposed on North Cyprus in 1974. There are very detailed sets of images of the better-known buildings, such as the Panagia Kanakaria. The Gothic monuments of the region are also well represented in the collection, including the medieval churches of Nicosia/Lefkoşa—such as the St. Sophia Cathedral and St. Nicholas Bedestan—and the Abbey of Bellapais. The most comprehensive portion of the collection focuses on the Lusignan Gothic churches of Famagusta, including St. Nicholas cathedral, St. George of the Greeks, St. George of the Latins, and Saints Peter and Paul.
Allan Langdale is an art historian, photographer, and filmmaker whose current research interests are in Cyprus, where he has done work on the medieval and Venetian monuments of Famagusta. He also has interests in the theory and methodology of art history and film theory.
View the collection in the ARTstor Digital Library.

QuarryScapes: conservation of ancient stone quarry landscapes in the Eastern Mediterranean
The QuarryScapes Project: conservation of ancient stone quarry landscapes in the Eastern Mediterranean
The spectacular monuments and cities of the ancient Near East are testament to an industrial past where large-scale stone procurement remains unsurpassed. Yet, stone quarries are forgotten as key archaeological sites, rich in material remains of crucial significance if we are to understand the social and technological practices of an age when stone was quarried and transported par excellence. Largely invisible, undocumented and unprotected, these ancient quarry landscapes are being destroyed from actions such as modern development and quarrying.
The inspiration for the ‘QuarryScapes' project comes from the necessity to put these ancient industrial landscapes on the map before it is too late and to raise awareness of their research potential across a broad spectrum of audiences, from archaeological researchers to the interested public. The ‘QuarryScapes' project drew together professionals from academic and other institutions in Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, UK, Belgium, Italy and Norway to focus specifically on documentation, conservation and heritage management of these fragile quarry landscapes within the first collaborative and innovative project of its kind.

Trismegistos News: Trismegistos People
Trismegistos People
Beta Version September 2011AWOL's entry for Open Access Library: Trismegistos
Introduction
Trismegistos People is a tool dealing with personal names of non-royal individuals attested as living in Egypt in documentary texts between BC 800 and AD 800, including all languages and scripts written on any surface. Not included are pharaohs, emperors, and saints; people attested in texts outside Egypt (with the exception of some Prosopographia Ptolemaica entries) or people living outside Egypt (no consuls!); and names from non-documentary texts (e.g. narratives).
Trismegistos People consists of a complex set of prosopographical and onomastic databases. At the heart of the structure is the REF database, which lists attestations of people identified by personal names. It is linked to PER, a database of individuals, and to NAMVAR, a database of personal name variants which is in turn linked to NAM, a database of names.

Portada de la Publicación del IPCE Informes y trabajos
La Subdirección General del Instituto del Patrimonio Cultural de España, adscrita a la Dirección General de Bellas Artes y Bienes Culturales del Ministerio de Cultura, es la institución estatal dedicada a la conservación y restauración de los Bienes Culturales que conforman el Patrimonio Histórico Español.
Para realizar esta labor, el IPCE desarrolla una serie de funciones otorgadas por Real Decreto de Fundación 565/1985 y mantenidas según el Real Decreto 1132/2008, entre las que destacan:
Para dar a conocer los proyectos que el IPCE lleva a cabo, tanto a investigadores y especialistas, como al público en general, el centro desarrolla una línea editorial integrada por publicaciones monográficas y tres revistas de aparición periódica. De estas últimas cabe reseñar, en primer lugar, la denominada Patrimonio Cultural de España. Tiene unaperiodicidad cuatrimestral y el soporte en el que se difunde es el papel. Su objetivo principal es potenciar las diferentes líneas de investigación del IPCE en el exterior, abordando ampliamente temas de carácter general pero incluyendo también el análisis de destacadas intervenciones de recuperación del Patrimonio Cultural, permitiendo, de esta forma, el debate entre especialistas. Las otras dos publicaciones periódicas que edita el IPCE tienen formato digital y pueden ser consultadas en su página Web. Son el Boletín Digital, que de forma resumida pretende dar a conocer los proyectos de conservación y restauración de mayor relevancia que han sido realizados por el Instituto, así como divulgar las noticias y actividades generadas por la actividad del IPCE, y la revista Informes y Trabajos.
- La elaboración y ejecución de planes para la conservación y restauración de bienes culturales constitutivos del Patrimonio Español.
- El establecimiento de líneas de investigación, criterios, métodos y técnicas de conservación y restauración de dicho patrimonio.
- La formación de técnicos y especialistas que desarrollen esta labor.
- El archivo de la documentación generada por cada intervención. La difusión y divulgación de dichas actividades.
Esta última publicación, tiene aparición semestral, y su contenido gira en torno al Patrimonio Histórico. De sus dos números anuales, el primero se dedica a la difusión de las Campañas arqueológicas llevadas a cabo en el exterior durante al año anterior, financiadas con cargo al Programa de Ayudas para Proyectos Arqueológicos en el Exterior, que anualmente instrumenta la Dirección General de Bellas Artes y Bienes Culturales del Ministerio de Cultura a través de la Subdirección General del Instituto del Patrimonio Cultural de España.
El segundo se destina a las intervenciones que realizan las diferentes áreas del IPCE. Son proyectos de Investigación, Conservación y Restauración, todos ellos tratados en profundidad, con una temática heterogénea, como corresponde a las diferentes tareas que se llevan a cabo desde el IPCE.

Submitted by Serge Rosmorduc on Mon, 09/19/2011 - 13:50. Bug fixes, and improvement
- Keyboard shortcuts for "insert space" and "insert half space" are back due to popular demand
- Fixed a problem with Unicode transliteration font. Also use the correct font when copy/pasting as RTF text (works in Mellel and OpenOffice at least)
- clear all/select all should work
- Direct copy paste on windows If you select "EMF" as clipboard format on Windows, you will be able to paste your JSesh text directly in softwares like PowerPoint
- some changes in preferences were not always taken into account on Mac OS X. Solved.
- Alas, still no version for Mac OS X Tiger.
