Stellar Evolution from Historical Data: J. Hearnshaw (New Zealand)
The Problem of "Red" Sirius- Evolutionary or Spurious? K. Brecher (USA)

Because of the the severe time limitations of this JD, some important
topics could not be included. To help alleviate this problem and to
broaden the scope of the JD, there will be a poster session connected with
this meeting. Papers are invited on topics that relate to the theme of
observational and theoretical aspects of stellar evolution that can be
discerned from the scrutiny of historical data as well as telescopic
observations made over the last 200 yrs. In particular papers on historic
supernovae and novae, the problem of the "Red Sirius", Eta Carinae, P
Cygni, and related topics, as well as solar variability will be especially
welcome. An appreciation of the poster papers will made during the oral
sessions.

Dear Colleagues,
Over the past two decades we, the Europeans, as well as their guests from
other continents had had many opportunities, apart from the Oxford
International Conferences, to meet together to present results of their
work and discuss them in numerous cities and countries, originally solely
on the private and independent initiatives of various organizers. Let us
recall here at least a few of those events:
* 1988: The First National Symposium on Archaeoastronomy, Academy
of Sciences, Tolbukhin, Bulgaria
* 1989: Archeologia e Astronomia, Institute of Archaeology and Oriental
Studies, University of Venice and Astronomical Observatory in
Padova, Italy
* 1990: Current Problems and Future of Archaeoastronomy, State
Archaeological Museum and Department of the Historical
Anthropology, Warsaw, Poland
* 1991: Archaeoastronomy, Lorand Eotvos Astronomical Observatory,
Budapest and King Stephan Museum, Szekesfehervar, Hungary
* 1992: Time and Astronomy at the Meeting of Two Worlds (conference
on the 500th anniversary of the "discovery" of America), Warsaw
University and Town of Frombork, Poland
* 1994: The Inspiration of Astronomical Phaenomena, The Vatican
Astronomical Observatory, Castel Gandolfo, Italy
* 1994: Archeologia e Astronomia, Academia dei Lincei, Rome, Italy
* 1996: Problems of Archaeoastronomy, Academy of Sciences, Moscow,
Russia
However, Prof. Carlos Jaschek who, having already since 1986
established succesfully the regular conferences being held at Strasbourg
Observatory under name of Astronomie et Sciences Humaines, had put
forward many years ago the idea to bring into life an association which
would be able to unite all the hitherto dispersed efforts in order to
preserve records of our past achievements as well as to facilitate current
exchange of thoughts and regular publication of the works of all our
colleagues. For this purpous, he called at Strasbourg for an enlarged
meeting in 1992 where were established the basis of SEAC. That is why,
although it was not until during the next meeting in Bulgaria in 1993
when the said association became officially constituted under the french
name of Societe Europeenne pour l'Astronomie dans la Culture (SEAC)
with the votes of its founding members, we shall justly consider Prof. C.
Jaschek as the founder of our society and the meeting of 1992 at
Strasbourg as the 1st SEAC Conference.
It was our intention to hold conferences each year in different country,
alternatively in the West or in the East, to facilitate contacts between
scholars of the both parts of the continent, so long separated.
* 1992: Astronomie et Sciences Humaine, the 1st founder's SEAC
conference, Strasbourg Observatory and the European Science
Foundation, Strasbourg, France
* 1993: Astronomical Traditions in Past Cultures, the 2nd SEAC
conference, Smolyan Astronomical Observatory, Smolyan, Bulgaria
* 1994: SEAC `94, Astronomy and Culture, the 3rd SEAC conference,
Ruhr University, Bochum, Germany
* 1995: SEAC `95, the 4th SEAC conference, Sibiu University, Sibiu,
Romania
* 1996: SEAC `96, the 5th SEAC conference, Salamanca University,
Salamanca, Spain
* 1997: SEAC `97, the 6th SEAC conference is to be held in Gdansk,
Poland on initiative of Dr. Mariusz Ziolkowski of the Department
of Historical Anthropology, Warsaw University and the Central
Maritime Museum in Gdansk
We invite you to take part in that meeting and present the most recent
results of your work in that area. Due to the location and time of our
conference (Gdadsk, the great harbour on the Baltic Sea, will celebrate in
1997 a millenium anniversary of its foundation and of the martyrdom of
St. Adalbertus, the baptist of that land), we believe it only right to
focus its scope on the three principal subjects:
* the stars and the sea
* the celestial maps from antiquity to Johan Hevelius
* medieval astronomy
Of course, the papers on other subjects referring to the astronomy in
culture will also be accepted and located separately in the special session.
As in all previous cases, the conference proceedings will be published.
The conference will be held in english and french.
* the deadline for applications is March 31, 1997
* the confirmations will be mailed back together with a provisional
invitation, necessary for the candidates in their applying for grants or
other sources of financing
* the final approval will be decided upon by the Organizing Committee
and communicated to all the concerned before April 15
* the approval shall not come into effect until reception of the inscription
fee (25 Ecus or equivalent) which should reach us before May 15, the
final date to confirm the hotel reservations.

Ausstellungen
-------------
Till 26 March 1997 the Museum of the History of Science at Oxford, UK,
displayed the exhibition "The Noble Dane: Images of Tycho Brahe". It was
centred on an historical genre painting from the mid-nineteenth century,
recently restored, but moved on to consider the image of Tycho in a
variety of forms and senses.
An on-line Web version is still availabe at http://www.mhs.ox.ac.uk/tycho/
The celebration of the Three Galileos will continue through June 15, 1997,
with an exhibition, "Voyage to the Cosmos", in Padua, Italy. The
exhibition is housed in the 13th century Palazzo del Raggion, a medieval
hall with walls covered by an astrological cycle painted in the 15th
century. The show covers our astronomical conquests from the first
telescopic observations by Galileo Galilei, to the technological wonders
of the TNG and other modern telescopes, up to the last astounding feats of
space exploration with spacecraft and probes. Informatics and virtual
reality also have a major role in the exhibition, as well as real-time
connections with astronomical sites for remote conferences. Highlights of
the exhibition include a replica of Galileo's telescope, a 1/10th scale
model of the Galileo spacecraft and a book of Galileo's results, printed
in 1630.
Additional information in Italian about the exhibition is available at
http://tregalilei.interbusiness.it/.
An exhibition based on the pioneering voyage of Captain Cook in the
Endeavour opens at the Queen's House in the grounds of the National
Maritime Museum, Greenwich (London, UK) at Easter 1997. The exhibition -
"Captain Cook and the Endeavour" (24 March to 21 September 1997) - is a
blend of original artefacts used by Cook on his first voyage of discovery
and stunning paintings of newly discovered lands by British artist and
draughtsman, William Hodges. - In July 1768, Cook set sail in Endeavour to
observe the Transit of Venus on Tahiti, but also with secret instructions
to investigate the existence of the Great South Land. By 1769, Cook had
reached New Zealand, where he charted the north and south islands before
continuing west. In April 1770, he sighted the east coast of what we now
know as Australia, anchoring in Botany Bay. Cook was the first European to
accurately chart the Pacific and to open up Australia and New Zealand to
later settlement. His navigational skills were exceptional, even before
the invention of Harrison's chronometer. His concern for the health of his
crew ensured no one died of scurvy and in choosing to convert a Whitby
collier he made a sound decision - Endeavour proved an excellent vessel
for exploration. - Among the exhibits in Cook and the Endeavour are Cook's
personal journal of the voyage; charts so accurate that they can still be
used today; an intricate scale model of Endeavour featuring each crew
member and the stores taken on board. Additional navigational instruments
will be on display at the Old Royal Observatory. - The exhibition
coincides with the arrival at Greenwich of the full-size working replica
of HM Bark Endeavour. The ship will be on display and open for visitors at
Greenwich Pier from 28 March to 13 April 1997, before beginning a 14-port
tour of the UK. Endeavour is currently bound for Britain, sailing from
Australia via South Africa. To mark the opening of Cook and the Endeavour,
a statue of Captain Cook by sculptor Anthony Stones will be unveiled by a
special guest in the Museum grounds.
