The study aims to understand the traditional context of the social policies in Germany by reviewing the course of transition of the traditional, ancient and/or medieval social policies or ideas of social policy in the country as a typical example of such transitions, which started being passed over to the modern civic society at the end of the medieval age, that is, during the 15th and 16th centuries. One of the reasons why the domestic interest in the German social policy is higher than the actual research achievements and frequently discussed seems explainable because a social security or welfare policy through a social insurance was initiated in Germany for the first time over the world in the 19th century. Notwithstanding, however, that all of us know that such a policy was not made in a day, cases are sometimes visible where focuses are easily drawn only to the periodic and economical phenomena in the 19th century and the strategic option of Preussen. Moreover, no literature which integrates thoroughly or publicly the social policies in Germany has been introduced at home, and some research books or study papers, if any, are inclined to concentrate merely on the social policies after the 19th century. Indeed, there are views, not rare, that a social policy of a national dimension was initiated along with the establishment of capitalism or an industrial society. According to such views, an industrial society or capitalism was begun to shape in the 19th century, and it is accordingly so national to lay our focuses on the social policies after the century. But from the fact that a national social policy existed much farther before the capitalism was established, it can be inferred that such policies were inevitable in all societies where a social issue existed. In the case of our country which experienced a more serious separation from the tradition than other countries by her rapid industrialization and Westernization, it is true that some traditional traces remain still regardless of their actual realization.

Hitherto there have been by and large three different approaches to the installation works of Olafur Eliasson; a soma-aethetic, politico-aesthetic and techno-aesthetic. But none of these provides us with the aesthetic descriptions of the light effect. This failure seems to arise from the lack of the conceptual tools suit for describing the atmospheric effect of 'light'. The symbolism of light, or the theological optics of Middle Age may help us to compensate for the lack of appropriate concepts needed for theorizing the effect of light used very frequently by contemporary installation artists. And this medieval aesthetics of light can also of service to elucidate some essential characteristics of the digtal visual culture in general.

The purpose of this paper is to reinterpret and visualize the medieval Arab's studies on the geometric methods of solving the cubic equation by utilizing Apollonius' symptom of the parabola. In particular, we investigate the results of $Kam{\bar{a}}l$ $al-D{\bar{i}}n$ ibn $Y{\bar{u}}nus$, Alhazen, Umar al-$Khayy{\bar{a}}m$ and $Al-T{\bar{u}}s{\bar{i}}$ by 4 steps(analysis, construction, proof and examination) which are called the complete solution in the constructions. This paper is available in the current middle school curriculum through dynamic geometry program(Geogebra).

This study was carried out to understand the characteristics of stairs in Palladio's villa. The subject of study are selected the twenty two villas with drawing in his book ‘The four books of Architecture’. Their cases are represented the characteristics of stair in architectural composition. Accordingly, it was analyzed and classified the architectural characteristics into space, form and plan at a villa. In conclusion, in aspect of spacial plan, staircases of Palladio's villa was presented more open and light in comparison with darked space of the medieval age. And it was intended to the connection or division between spaces of different character In an aspect of formal plan, dynamic form of stairs was divided into the two types. First, it was represented the effect of articulation in form. Second, stairs were represented the diagonal with the shape of itself. In an aspect of plan, his idea is coexisted with traditional thought and rational idea through the arrangement of symmetry md asymmetry. But at any rate, his concern was sought for the reasonable position. Also, he had represented the various characteristics in stairs such as his works in Renaissance period.

The scope of the study involves comparison of theaters in the west and those in the east, which experienced almost no exchange between them in the past, due to diverse restrains including a geographical one. The focus was put on the two types of these theaters whose similarities are meager historically and technologically, and whose link was not verified yet. However, similarities ,if any, will be identified among characteristics of these theaters so that the links such as liberalism, nomadic and participatory nature, non-linear space, ambivalence, mobile space-which are modern characteristics- could be connected from the past to the present, and those modern characteristics can be studied as a process where they could be sensed from the past structure or from each different target.

The word 'urbanity' literally means 'quality or state of being urban' where the criterion of urban economic and civic culture is assumed despite the general celebration of cultural uniqueness of urban centers. The narratives celebrating the uniqueness of urban centers since the ancient past till recent times could not get rid of the broad categorization of the urban models depending on their contextual networks of trade, mobility and culture. This paper attempts to explore whether the urban cultures in South Asia even preceding a global phenomenon like colonialism were actually reflecting an idea of urbanity where the urban culture, including planning and architecture reflected a trans-national model. This paper particularly concentrates on the medieval period when a pattern of urbanity took shape in this subcontinent under the influence of Islam, which could be explained by its particular idea of urban model, cultural exchange and vibrant trade networks.

It is quite common today for bride to wear white-colored wedding-dress in wedding ceremony. When does the color date back to? What does the “white” mean? Which other colors had been used for wedding dress and why? This research paper aims to answer those historical questions through literature review. It is found here that the “white” began to be generally accepted for a wedding dress color in the 18th century, and that the color became an official one since the marriage of Queen Victoria's (i.e. 1840). Prior to that, other colors were taken rather than the “white”. In ancient Greece and Roma, “Red” and “Yellow” were used to remove devils or to bring fortune. In medieval society, luxurious wedding dresses were popular and various colors were adopted in order to show up family power among leading classes. The “White” has meant purity of bride since the 18th century. However, two world wars in the 20th century happened to lead some brides in economic difficulty wear “black” colored wedding dress for a practical reason. After the world wars, some light colors such as white, beige, ivory are to be used in wedding dress.
