Dear all In issue 312 I was asked to formulate an example to be used in the definition of E4 Period:
Subclass of: E2<file:///C:/data/cidoc-crm/2016/Berlin%20desember/CIDOC%20CRM%206.2.2(current%20since%202-12-2016)(site).docx#_E2_Temporal_Entity> Temporal Entity Subclass of E92<file:///C:/data/cidoc-crm/2016/Berlin%20desember/CIDOC%20CRM%206.2.2(current%20since%202-12-2016)(site).docx#_E91_Co-Reference_Assignment> Spacetime volume Geopolitical units exist in time and may vary in spatial extent and can be modeled as instances of E4 Period. I was asked to formulate a Scandinavian example. First some background for those of you not very familiar with Nordic history: In 1397 the Kalmar Union consisting of Denmark, Norway and Sweden, was established. Sweden finally broke out in 1522. Norway became a de facto part of Denmark from the Lutheran reformation in 1537 until the Kiel Peace Treaty between Denmark and Sweden was signed in 1814. The original intention of the treaty was to give Sweden the area of Norway. For some unknown reasons the Swedish crown prince and former French general Jean-Bapstiste Bernadotte intervened and insisted that Norway should be considered to be a separate kingdom in a personal union (under him) with Sweden. The reason is unclear but it may have been a way to secure his position in case the Swedes rejected him (Norway was larger than the tiny Principality of Pontecorv o given him by Napoleon). Somewhat surprisingly, the very liberal Norwegian constitution stemming from the short period of Norwegian independence in 1814 was accepted by Bernadotte. (It is speculated that this was done as a PR-action to appear more liberal and thus increase his odds to become the king of France, after an advice from Madame de Staël ). In any case, Norway and Sweden was in a so called personal union under one king, and a single administration of foreign policy (by the King/Swedish government) The example: The union of Norway and Sweden under a common king from 1814 to 1905 Best Christian-Emil? ________________________________ From: Chryssoula Bekiari <[email protected]> Sent: 16 January 2017 13:32 To: Christian-Emil Smith Ore Cc: George Bruseker Subject: Fwd: HW reminder: issue 312 Dear Christian Emil I would like to remind you the homework about examples of Period as geopolitical unit from Norway/Sweden best wishes Chryssoula -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: HW reminder: issue 312 List-Post: [email protected] Date: Mon, 16 Jan 2017 14:24:15 +0200 From: Chryssoula Bekiari <[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]> To: Gerald Hiebel <[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]>, Dominic Oldman <[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]>, Wolfgang Schmidle <[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]> CC: George Bruseker <[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]> Dear All I would like to remind you the homework @ Gerald and Wolfgang: about revision of the scope note of E4 the period considering that a E4 Period maybe a geopolitical unit: a real phenomenon, claim of power / jurisdictional area . @Dominic: provide examples about modern and ancient periods. all the best Chryssoula -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Chryssoula Bekiari Research and Development Engineer Center for Cultural Informatics / Information Systems Laboratory Institute of Computer Science Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas (FORTH) N.
