Résumé en anglais
An insight into the contents of the Spirit of Place is possiblethrough recognition of heritage components of environmental factors in
the past and present times. The holistic methodology treats theenvironmental factors as subjects with their own special features and
heritage needs and as objects reliant upon recognisable possibilities ofother factors. The inductively gathered components of the factors are
arranged into a qualitative structure of the place, composed of externalcomponents (the quality of the material and the quality of its
organisational arrangement) and internal components (the quality of thecontents of the thought and its organisational quality). From the
stipulations of the evaluation qualitative theory it stems that the materialqualities and the qualities of thought are autonomous, while the
qualities of organisational arrangement of materials and organisationalqualities of thought must be implicitly interconnected if we wish to get
an insight into them. Their interconnection delineates the quality ofplace, i.e. the link between tangible and the intangible that enables
transformation of material into quality and perception of Place intorecognition of the Spirit of Place. The quality coefficients of the
exterior, interior and their organisational arrangement are equivalent.The inductively established qualities enable a deductive qualitative
implementation of the contents in deficitary components. In this mannerthe methodology systematically enables the understanding of the Spirit
of Place in a given environment.
