Livre - Jarmi = Yokes

Z veseljem predstavljamo novo knjigo iz naše zbirke Knjižnica Slovenskega etnografskega muzeja z naslovom Jarmi - Yokes: Upokojena kustosinja muzeja, etnologinja mag. Inja Smerdel je napisala študijo Jarmi = Yokes (Slovenski etnografski muzej, 2024). Knjiga je rezultat dolgoletnega proučevanja razmerja med ljudmi in delovnimi voli. Uvodni študiji, skozi "nemo govorico jarmov, ki s svojo obliko in površino sporočajo številne sestavine svoje pojavnosti" (regionalne tipike in vidne znake skrbi za živali), sledi katalog jarmov, ki jih hrani SEM. Kot pravi avtorica, so za njimi ostale "vznemirljive, večplastno povedne snovne kulturne sledi". We are pleased to present a new book from our collection Library of the Slovenian Ethnographic Museum entitled Jarmi - Yokes: Retired museum curator, ethnologist Inja Smerdel wrote the study Jarmi = Yokes (Slovenian Ethnographic Museum, 2024). The book is the result of many years of studying the relationship between people and working oxen. The introductory study, through the "silent language of yokes, which with their shape and surface communicate numerous components of their appearance" (regional typologies and visible signs of care for animals), is followed by a catalog of yokes kept by SEM. As the author says, they left behind "exciting, multi-layered, telling material cultural traces".
