The long-term principle concept is based on setting and achieving a vision for the future of coastal zone management. The vision for the sustainable development of coastal zone management includes utilizing new advances in scientific, technical, social and economic understanding of coastal sustainability. The coastal environment, dunes and beaches are outstanding natural assets. Their wildlife, cultural, historical and archaeological resources should be passed on to future generations in similar or better conditions than they are currently. The principle of long-term management can be analyzed according to these definitions (economics, ecology, ethics) concepts: comprehensive overview of systems, detailed investigation of issues, and the planning development of management practices that have a positive effect on the future.

2016-ųjų rudens tarptautinėse etnomuzikologų konferencijose svarbios buvo etnoinstrumentologinės temos. Rugsėjo 20–25 d. Sardinijoje vyko Kaljario universiteto Istorijos, kultūros ir teritorinio paveldo katedros ir Santu Lussurgiu miestelio bendruomenės surengta XXXII Europos etnomuzikologų seminaro (ESEM) konferencija „Muzikos, muzikų, muzikologų migracijos“ (angl. ‚Musics/ Music makers/ Musicologistsʼ transhumance‘). Jos pavadinime visų pasaulio šalių muzikinių migracijų, įvairių kelionių ir persikėlimų formoms ir temoms aprėpti simboliškai taikytas terminas transhumansas. Jis reiškia sezoninį kalnų regionų piemenų migravimą kartu su ganomomis gyvulių bandomis: išgynimą pavasarį į kalnų ganyklas ir sugrįžimą rudenį į slėnius. Kaip žinoma, visose šalyse piemenys ganydami mėgdavo dainuoti ar groti, turėdavo sau būdingus, dažniausiai pučiamuosius, muzikos instrumentus. Todėl šios konferencijos moksliniuose pranešimuose, neretai iliustruojamuose vaizdo siužetais, ir pačių autorių komentuojamuose etnografiniuose filmuose daug dėmesio skirta ne tik vokaliniam, bet ir instrumentiniam tradiciniam muzikavimui.

The appearance of portrait miniature is traditionally dated back to the 16th century when the miniature became a portrait genre. The Reformation processes occurring in Europe at the time also influenced the genesis of forms, technique and style of portrait miniatures. This paper focuses on the factors (related to the Reformation) which affected the formation of new images embodied in H. Holbein’s and N. Hilliard’s works. The rise of the portrait miniature as a new type of portrait, its features, and uniqueness of its properties are explained through the study of certain political, social, and cultural aspects of the Reformation movement in the context of English art.

Šioje etnomuzikologinėje knygoje apžvelgiama lietuvių muzikos kaita nuo XX a. pradžios, kai Lietuvos kaimuose dar tebegyvavo ir buvo iš kartos į kartą perduodamos polifoninės giesmės sutartinės, iki XXI a. pradžios, kai sutartines ėmė puoselėti miestiečių bendruomenė, jos tapo nebe paveldimos, o išmokstamos. Šią kaitą, liaudies muzikos persikėlimą į miestą, jos gyvavimą urbanistinėje aplinkoje greta daugybės kitų muzikos stilių ir reiškia knygos pavadinimas „Nuo tradicinės polifonijos iki polifoninės tradicijos“.

This article deals with the study of Armenian anthroponymic system, particularly, with the morphological structure and etymological semantic of proper names. The aim of this article is to explore derivative models of proprial word formation in order to show the transformation of lexical units and grammatical units into proprial word formation morphemes. The question of interpretation of morphological structure of foreign proper names becomes actual by their rendering in other languages. A common rendering difficulty is caused by almost lack of any explicitly grammatical gender designation in Armenian personal names and surnames. Commen suffixes serve as proprial signals.
