Prefatory Note.—My interest in Pavia goes back at least to 1951 when I was elected Rome Scholar in Medieval Studies. I began seriously to collect material for the history of the city in the early Middle Ages in the winter and spring of 1953 when I enjoyed the warm hospitality of the Collegio Ghislieri, thanks to the efforts made on my behalf by the late Hugh Last, to whose memory this article is dedicated. The published proceedings of the Reichenau and Spoleto congresses on ‘The early medieval town’ in the 1950s clearly underlined the need for detailed studies of particular towns; but the lack of adequate archaeological evidence discouraged me from attempting such a study of early medieval Pavia. In 1964, however, Dr. A. Peroni, Director of the Museo Civico invited me to read a supplementary paper on this topic to the Convegno di Studio sul Centro Storico di Pavia held in the Università degli Studi at Pavia on July 4th and 5th of that year. The present article is an amplified and corrected version of that paper: I have made no substantial alterations to my account of the ‘urbanistica’ of early medieval Pavia—written for an audience of architects and art-historians as well as of historians—but have dealt more fully with the social history of the city in this period. Professor Richard Krautheimer read a draft of the revised version and made some pointed and helpful comments. I am greatly indebted to Dr. Peroni, not merely for the invitation to present the original paper but also for supplying illustrations and answering queries at a time when he and his staff were engaged in helping to repair the ravages of the Florence floods.

Realizing an increasing contribution of the tourism sector to global economies, this study intends to enrich the existing tourism literature by empirically exploring the short- and long-run dynamic causalities between tourism and economic growth in Indonesia over the period 1995 to 2017. For these purposes, cointegration, Fully Modified Least Squares (FMOLS), and Granger causality techniques are adopted. The study found a cointegration between tourism and economic growth, indicating the existence of a long-run relationship between the tourism sector and economic growth. In the long-run, tourism has contributed to the promotion of economic growth. Finally, both in the short- and long-run, the study found a unidirectional causal relationship running from tourism to economic growth, confirming the tourism-led growth hypothesis. To enhance Indonesia's economic growth, the tourism sector should be further promoted by making it more attractive, supported by advanced IT facilities, warm hospitality, and diversified tourism objects.

In the article the Russian films of the period 1920-1940 are considered, the image of Moscow is analyzed in the context of the concept of city text. The concept city text sprang into being as a certain sample of the supra text concept, a complex set of semantically bound texts. This issue is underexplored in the Russian film studies. The urgency of the investigation is stipulated by the fact, that under cultural dissimilation reflection of the separate text integrity, the capitals cityscape expressed in cinema terms in particular, will contribute to the perception of ways of urbanization on socio-cultural level as well as peculiarities of city culture shaping Three concepts of Moscow are specified: Moscow as a Third Rome, with prevaing symbols of power, Moscow as a new Kitezh with bi-worldness images, and Moscow as a new Babylon paralleling the Russian capital with the Bible city. Also such concepts as Moscow as a female protagonist and festive Moscow, rendering the mood of warm hospitality, friendship and cordiality are considered. Different manifestations of all three concepts are displayed in the 1920-s cinema: novelized images of Moscow as a reborn symbol of power, as a two-layered city and as a new Babylon. In the 1930-s the capital in the cinema is represented by comedies, showing Moscow as a dream-city, where all wishes come true, as a conflict-free space with the female protagonist delivering the key semantics of festive Moscow. In the 1940-s the continuation of the previous years tendency is traced - the war themes dont emerge, but the idea of dream city is still popular, elaborated by the ideas of power and domination, materialized in the images of the parades. Next decades the idea of the Moscow as a dream city will be changed, but the power of its influence will reveal itself, whereas the idea of bi-worldness starts to develop in completely different facets.

The Kinship of the English-speaking peoples, our common heritage of democratic ideals, and our close military alliance have created a unique relationship between the British Commonwealth and the United States. I know we both value it highly.I am mindful of this in, saying that I feel that I am among friends here and that I appreciate your warm hospitality. Incidentally, my father received the same warm hospitality from you a quarter of a century ago when he delivered the twenty-third Wilbur Wright Memorial Lecture in 1935.

This study explored the relationships between destination attractiveness, satisfaction, the sense of reliving, and loyalty among American tourists who had experienced Silk Road tourism in Uzbekistan. In addition, this study investigated the mediating role of the sense of reliving with regard to satisfaction and loyalty. A total of 477 respondents participated and were used for the final analysis. The results suggest that destination attractiveness includes multidimensional constructs consisting of five dimensions, namely, cultural attractiveness, natural attractiveness, the local people and superstructure, infrastructure, and price attractiveness. Cultural attractiveness, the warm hospitality of local people, and the superstructure appear to be the competitive attributes of Silk Road tourism in Uzbekistan affecting tourist satisfaction. Furthermore, the results reveal that tourist satisfaction increases loyalty. A mediating role of the sense of reliving with regard to satisfaction and loyalty was also confirmed. Tourists remember their travel experiences upon returning home, relive Silk Road travel experiences, and demonstrate their behavioral intentions. These findings can provide a deeper understanding of destination attractiveness and memorable experiences for increasing loyalty to destinations related to Silk Road tourism in Uzbekistan.

It gives me particular pleasure to participate in this ceremony today because of personal associations with the two men we are honoring by it. When, in 1946, as a very green convert to pediatrics, in my fourth year of on the job training at the Children's Hospital, I found myself about to take over the responsibility for a distinguished academic department, Dr. Richard M. Smith, knowing full well the deficiencies in my pediatric training, wisely told me that I ought to go to Rochester, Minnesota and see what Andy Aldrich was doing in his comprehensive child health care project there. For nearly a week I enjoyed the warm hospitality of the pediatric staff at the Mayo Clinic, particularly the Helmholtzes and the Aldriches, and spent my days with Dr. Aldrich, watching him as he made his rounds in the newborn nursery or counselled mothers in the child health clinic. It was a rare privilege to be able to sit at the feet of a great master, and learn from him in the one-to-one relationship which has always been the basis of the best in education. I remember well his infectious enthusiasm for detecting temperamental differences in babies in their first few days of extrauterine life. He used to carry a spring scale for weighing fish in his pocket, with a loop at its end which he'd put around the baby's ankle, in an effort to quantitate the differences in muscle tone, which might, at some later date, be correlated with motor development or emotional responses in the growing child.
