Salgótarján, 04. – 06. 2012 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A1muel_Mikoviny; cf. also the rest of the cited Internet resources). The public image of S. Mikoviny The public image of S. Mikoviny in Slovakia is restricted to scholarly circles. Perhaps due to the fact that two nations consider him as belonging to them (Slovaks and Hungarians), his image is not that dominant. In Slovakia, the name is spelled as Mikovíni or Mikovíny. His descendants use the “Mikovíny” form (see Fig.3a; Timčák 1985). In some Slovakian cities (at least 7 cities) there is a street named after him. There is a Hotel Academy in Bratislava and a vocational school named after him in B. Ńtiavnica. He has one commemorating table in B. Ńtiavnica and one statue in Bratislava (Fig.3b, situated at nábr. L. Svobodu). One commemorative 500 SKK coin was issued in 2000 with his image on the obverse (Fig. 4). There have been a number of conferences devoted to his legacy and a number of papers was devoted to his maps and surveying activity. A few books (printed or electronic) analyzed his life. Fig. 3a Dr. Mikovinyová addressing the 1985 conference devoted to Mikoviny and Higher Education. The public image of Mikoviny in Hungary is a bit brighter, mainly due to the cultural habit of recognizing the outstanding figures of science and technology. In Hungary his name is spelled as Mikoviny. At the Miskolc University there is the portrait of him (Fig.1a) executed in oil, then a bust (Fig. 5) of his likeliness. There was a commemorative medal issued with his image (Fig. 6). One bust is located in Tata. There is a prestigious Learning Institution “Sámuel Mikovíny earth science doctoral study School” at the Miskolc University. The number of conferences and science papers devoted to his legacy is considerable. Even with all this recognition of Mikoviny´s achievements, the public image in Slovakia and Hungary is low profile and does not significantly influence tourism on a national or regional scale. It has to be mentioned though, that in Hungary there is a fluvial trail: “Által ér” on a segment of Danube near Almásfüzitő devoted to Mikoviny´s memory. 94
