Google odnedavno ima vrlo ceremonijalne hrvatske prijevode svojih porukica i naslova (Google Scholar = Google znalac? mo-lim??). To se zove, valjda, "lokalizacija". Blogger ga pokušava slijediti.

Iz Klaića ("Prilog II. Transkripcija izprava", p. XI.)



Pismo sigetskomu kapitanu Marku Horvatu (Stančiću), 14. kolovoza 1556.




Egregie domine et amice nobis honorande, salutem et nostri commendationem. Conservationi arcis Zygeth et omnium in ea existentium valde gratulor, sed tanto magis, quia Do(minationem) vestram videmus esse florem nostrae nationis, eo quod eadem Croata est. Decoravit enim Dominatio vestra non solum se hoc suo celebri facto, sed et nos omnes Croatas. Quamobrem cum Deus optimus maximus eandem huc adtulerit, si qua in re eadem nostra opera uti voluerit, nos semper sibi paratissimos habebit, quęque eiusdem causa subire. Quam una cum reliquis isthic existentibus feliciter conservari optamus. Datum Viennę 14 Augusti 1556.

Vestre dominationis
frater et amicus

Klaiću je ovo bilo jako važno. Poslije i Johnu V. A. Fineu, Jr.

Meni (koji pabirčim škakljive sitnice za Croatiae auctores Latini) je interesantno što imam i sliku i prijepis. I da je Klaić na archive.org. A Marko Horvat kojemu Juraj Drašković čestita ima knjigu u Digitale Bibliothek.

Ragusium



Anno mundi 5656 — Anno Christi 457. Ragusium autem Dalmatie ciuitas ab Epidaurensibus Epidauro a Gotthis euerso auspicaci loco hoc quoque tempore et anno condita; quae prae ceteris Dalmatie urbibus publicis et priuatis opibus magnifice est extructa. Habet et ipsa naualia et portum optimum cathena clausum: cuius ciues ceteros Dalmatas opibus et reliquis bonis atque virtutibus superant: qui cum liberi sint legibus moribusque instructi Venetorum more senatum et magistratum ac patriciorum ordinem habent a plebe distinctum. Patricij soli rempublicam ipsam administrant: plebs tantum suis rebus studet: et uero publicis minime curiosa est.

Dubrovnik



At the time of our experiments, there were only 58,000 images of Dubrovnik on Flickr. For this city we were able to experiment with the entire collection. Matching took only 5 hours on 352 compute cores. The largest and most interesting component corresonds to the old city. It is interesting that the reconstruction time for Dubrovnik is so much more than that for Rome. The reason lies in how the data sets are structured. The Rome data set is essentially a collection of landmarks which at large scale have a simple geometry and visibility structure. The largest connected component in Dubrovnik on the other hand captures the entire old city. With its narrow alley ways, complex visibility and widely varying view points, it is a much more complicated reconstruction problem, and this is reflected in the time it took to solve it.

Dic, pater, quid est lamella?


Elias Magnus Fries (1794–1878), the "founder of modern systematic mycology", tells a little about his own education in his Historiola Studii mei mycologici (1857). At the age of twelve when gathering strawberries in a wood he found an unusually large specimen of a fungus (Hydnum coralloides), which induced him to begin the study of fungi. He tried to ascertain its name with the aid of Liljeblad's Utkast til en Svensk Flora (1792 and 1798), but was soon tripped up by an unknown word lamella. "Shortly afterwards, when out walking with my father, I asked: Dic, Pater, quid est lamella? (with my father I was allowed to talk only in Latin, whereby I learned Latin before Swedish). Lamella, he replied, est lamina tenuis, which explanation given made this term for the fructification of agarics seem particularly apt.

Braudelov pepeo


Mais faut-il le dire, au risque de paraître ingrat à l'égard de nos devanciers, cette masse de publications écrase le chercheur comme une pluie de cendres. Trop de ces études parlent un langage d'hier, désuet à plus d'un titre.
