The article studies the commemorative medal for the centenary of the Imperial St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences as a part of the Academy’s jubilee. Preserving memory of significant events is one of key aspects of culture. Jubilees and jubilee-related artifacts, i.e. commemorative medals, have their place among so called commemorative practices. Scientific community uses such practices make appeals to the authorities, to enhance its prestige, and to consolidate itself. The 1826 commemorative medal appeared to be a part of the jubilee events. The large-scale celebrations seemed to be a landmark in the history of the Academy of Sciences. Its President, Sergey Uvarov, used the opportunity to appeal to the Emperor and to show the Academy in all its glory. Medallionist Fyodor Tolstoy created for the occasion a jubilee commemorative medal, which was presented to the members of the Imperial family and other notable guests. That event was the climax of the celebration. The medal was authorized by the Emperor. Its creation therefore proved that the authorities recognized the import of the Academy of Sciences, the worth of science for state, its military power and its political reputation. The 1826 commemorative medal symbolized Imperial favor towards the Academy of Sciences; it bears the names of three monarchs: Peter I, its founder, Alexander I, its protector at the close of its first hundred years, and Nicholas I, its hope for the new era. Several drafts of the medal prove that academician experts in numismatics participated in its creation. The authors consider the commemorative medal an important historical source and a set of symbols to be explained. The article analyses art media and studies the evolution of medal inscriptions (they were first made in Latin, but later re-written in Russian on the Emperor’s orders).

The paper demonstrates the significance of commemorative and anniversary philosophical medals that are seen as a special visual aid for problematic issues in the history of philosophy specification. The author puts forward the thesis that such medals can clarify the perception of philosophical doctrine and the context of philosophical doctrine consideration at a particular time. So, they greatly assist as an additional historical and philosophical source, but they can hardly be helpful with the interpretation of either various aspects of a philosophical doctrine or a particular statement of a particular philosopher. The rationale for the thesis presents the analysis of four philosophical medals: the medal commemorating the foundation of the alethophile society (1740), A. Abramsonʼs medal in honor of I. Kantʼs sixtieth anniversary (1784), A. Abramsonʼs medal for the death of I. Kant (1804), A.L. Heldʼs medals in honor of the sixtieth anniversary of G.W.F. Hegel (1830). If the first three medals contribute to a better understanding of the philosophical traits of the German Enlightenment, the reasons for appealing to Horace's words “sapere aude”, Kant's peculiarity as an Enlightenmentist, philosophical meaning of the Kantian Copernican Revolution and the transformation of the perception of the “Critique of Pure Reason” in the late 18th century, expectations regarding the fourth medal has proved misplaced. It cannot clarify the Hegelian phrase about reason as a rose on the cross of modernity and reconciliation with reality. In addition, in the course of clarifying the meaning of the four aforementioned medals, the author also turns to the commemorative medal of Chr. Wolff by J. Dassier (c. 1733), the medal for the return of Chr. Wolff to Halle by J.Chr. Koch (1740) and the medal for Kantʼs death by F.W. Loos (1804).

This diploma thesis deals with Czech portrait medals in the past and present. The aim was to map Czech medal portrait work from its origins in the Renaissance to the present. At the beginning, the work is focused on the precious metals from which the medals are made, gold and silver. The history of gold and silver is included in the theory. The concepts of numismatics or commemorative medals made of gold and silver as investment preservation of real value are clarified. We were interested in the overall artistic process of producing portrait medal into the final product. The historical development of medals in the Czech lands followed. In each period, important artists, medalists, and their work are mentioned. All chapters contain pictorial materials. The practical part is devoted to all existing mintages of Karel Gott, which is a unique medal investment. Along with him, contemporary medal artists are characterized in more detail. In the end, the first findings about the portrait medal are summarized. The work brings an overall view of portrait medal work. Medal making represents a specific area of fine and sculptural art. It is an artistic artifact that reflects our history. KEYWORDS medal, gold, silver, portrait medal, commemorative medal, numismatics, art mintage, collecting

THESIS ABSTRACT Graduate Institute Of International Business National Taiwan University Name：Chang , Wan-Tang Month / Year：January , 2002 Adviser：Prof. Jaw , Yi-Long A Study on Foreign Firms Enter the Market of Commemorative Coins and Medals in Taiwan Since that the circulation coin is being gradually replaced by the plastic currency and mint-related business are on the decline in recent years, many foreign Mints have changed their production policy by increasingly producing and selling the commemorative coins and medals to overseas markets. Taiwan now has become one of the foreign Mints’ target markets in commemorative coins and medals for the following two main reasons: 1.The Taiwan Government has opened door on the gold-importing and free-trading to the public since 1986. 2.The consuming power in Taiwan has been getting stronger after 1991. In this study, I would like to discuss these causative factors why these foreign Mints consider getting into the commemorative coins and medals market in Taiwan by the different Entry Modes. The causative factors are divided into the interior and exterior factors. Interior factors include the product specialty factor, the resources devoting factor and the suppliers’ global strategic factor. Exterior factors include the local market factor, local environment factor and cooperators factor. Due to the special characters of commemorative coins and medals industry, the present Entry Modes could be divided into several ways such as direct export, indirect export, agent＋design, agent＋co-production, agent＋co-development and indirect export ＋ indirect co-development Besides, there will be an interview with seven main co-partners individually to verify the operating modes of importing the foreign commemorative coins and medals into Taiwan market. Lately, there are six suggestions to the Mint industry as follows: 1.For maintaining the competitive advantage in the foreign market, Mints have to create and adjust the designs of products to fit local customers. 2.Mints shall provide special local commemorative coins and medals for different areas; otherwise, they cannot keep their competition in that market even they have already won prominent reputation there. 3.To apply the new technology on the traditional commemorative coins and medals such as laser and color printing; it not could add product value but also create new business for Mint self. 4.Most of the customers on the commemorative coins and medals are old generation. For the best future, Mints have to innovate the other new products to fit for the fashion of young generations as well as to encourage their interests in collecting commemorative coins and medals. 5.Due to the huge potential market in China, Mints have to position the China market as early as possible. 6.The aspect on the production technology and marketing strategy in China has been an aggressive improvement. Our Mint has to learn his advantages then has a better chance to enter the China market in the future.

In the product development process, the marketing personnel and the R&D engineers usually rely on their past vague experience to analyze the relationship between product attributes and engineering design attributes. This may often result in the problem that the engineering attributes can not properly respond to customer requirements. Therefore, in order to achieve the economic goal, both customer requirements and engineering design attributes must be taken into consideration in the evaluation of a new product. Also the ability to confirm the final requirements needs to be developed for the purpose of rapidly creating the needed product. In order to achieve this purpose, it’s not only the problem of marketing or the problem of design or manufacturing, it’s a task which requires the cooperation of different functional departments. This study tries to combine the QFD method and fuzzy theory to treat customer requirements and to establish the relationship between product attributes and engineering attributes. Finally, using the relationship between customer requirements and engineering requirements, the optimal engineering design requirements can be found, the importance factors can be given, and the most appropriate engineer design requirements can be selected. The proposed method can be used in the design and construction of a new product. In order to verify the practicability of the method, the development of commemorative medals of the Central Mint in Taiwan is taken as an example, the steps of the proposed method were followed. The result shows that the proposed method can effectively help the development of a new product.

Annotation:
An informative example of the conscious act of naval hero-making are the commemorative medals struck in 1768 by the brother of George Anson. Anson had died in 1762, so these medals were not only a memorial to his life, but also a deliberate attempt to control his legacy. What the medals include, and omit, offers a fascinating opportunity to examine what some thought worthy of commemoration in eighteenth-century British culture. This chapter uses the medals as a prism through which to examine the interconnections between naval careers, material culture, and the process of commemoration. In addition, the paper offers a revaluation of the historiographical role of exploration in the eighteenth century and re-positions exploration as an explicitly naval activity in the British context.

The book closes with a study of the only extant Nasrid account of the Alhambra, Ibn al-Khaṭïb's text on the mawlid, the commemoration of the birth of the Prophet. The chapter begins with a comparative analysis of mawlid celebrations in other medieval Muslim courts focusing on the role of processions and threshold spaces, such as discussed in chapter 2. Ibn al-Khaṭïb also describes a royal tent, now lost, but refrained here, in light of chapter 4, as a case of textile architecture. The key to the analysis of the text, then, is the inter-medial relationship between the temporary tent and the permanent buildings as a ceremonial setting. This temporal dimension was thematized in the "poems of the hours" recited to measure the time of the event, elucidated here in connection with the poetic figures studied in chapter 3; as an instance of the relationship between static and kinetic elements introduced in chapter 1 ; and, further, with respect to the political and ideological dimensions of the ceremonial. Ibn al-Khaṭïb's account thus testifies to the inter-medial conception of space: an integrated aesthetic experience of architecture, poetry and textiles in the court ceremonial of the Alhambra.

In 1546, the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V commissioned a tapestry series to commemorate his successful 1535 campaign against Sultan Suleiman I’s Ottoman forces in the North African trading city of Tunis. The Conquest of Tunis tapestries have been regarded as a metaphorical statement of Charles V’s role as the defender of Christendom against Ottoman encroachment. However, the history of their production undercuts any simplistic formulation of his empire, with the metal for threads arriving from the New World and silks procured from forcibly converted Muslim artisans in Granada. The seeming clarity of the tapestries’ meaning obscures the heterogeneity of Charles’s empire, as well as the tension, and potential for perceived contamination, between the materials and the iconography of the tapestry medium.

This chapter analyses the commodification of Massasoit over the long history of the project to commemorate the leader. Sculptor Cyrus Dallin's career coincided with major technological developments in metal casting, which made it possible to reproduce sculptures faster and cheaper. Indian statuary cast in bronze was a thriving business that appealed to individuals, institutions, and especially municipalities. The chapter begins with the fund-raising efforts of the Improved Order of Red Men and move to the present-day marketing of Massasoit in every size and form, from small charms to statuettes, and sold in tourist shops, fine art galleries, and online auctions. All of these commodified replicas are imbedded in the creation of Plymouth as a popular tourist destination that peddles itself as the origins of the nation. This story mobile - far beyond and outside of Plymouth - through the sale and acquisition of Massasoit products.

At dusk close to 100,000 people clad in black and white face paint and hand-made costumes emerge from all directions marching along a two-mile procession route from Hotel Congress in Tucson, Arizona to the finale site carrying puppets, banners, effigies, floats and posters with photographs of the dead of all shapes and sizes. Crowds of people line the streets; however unlike the Macy’s Day Thanksgiving Parade and other official processions, there are no street barriers separating those marching in the procession and those observing; the lines are porous and blurred. Participants move fluidly in and out of the procession between spectating and marching: dancing, drumming and walking. There is no clear distinction between sidewalk and street; between official performers and spectators—everyone is a participant. There is a somber sense of excitement and anticipation. A large-scale sculptural urn assisted by guardians from the performance troupe Flam Chen weaves through the dense crowd collecting hand-written prayers and offerings from passersby. Day of the Dead motifs of black and white skeletons, flowers, and masks dominate the visual landscape mixed with a fusion of hybrid imagery that evokes death, memory and celebration. Suspended weightlessly above a crowd of fire-lit faces, a figure moves gracefully without a safety net, wrapping her body in aerial silks tethered to helium balloon clusters. Stilted figures in ornate hand-constructed costumes twirl fire to the thundering beating drum. Costumed figures scale the metal tower with torches to light the large paper mache urn, which is filled with the prayers of the entire community. Flames lick up the sides of the urn transforming it into a ball of raging fire; the crowd cheers as they watch their prayers ascend into the darkness. This ritual burning of the urn signifies the culminating act of the Tucson All Souls’ Procession. Flam Chen, pyrotechnic performance troupe from Tucson and Many Mouths One Stomach, the organizers of the event, stage a fire aerial performance followed by the symbolic burning of the urn filled with the community’s prayers and wishes.
