Paperback or Softback. Condición: New. Urban Life and Form in Ancient Egypt. Book.

Paperback. Condición: New. Taking into account archaeological and written sources, Egypt's urban past is remarkably evident throughout the pharaonic period, as can be demonstrated by a selection of relevant examples. There is also evidence of some unusual forms of towns and cities that do not readily fit into the common categories associated with urbanism. This Element aims to introduce ancient Egyptian urban society and form based on a theoretical framework that uses urban dimensions and attributes. This multi-faceted approach offers a degree of flexibility that is helpful for such an investigation because it can be adapted to the incomplete nature of the available evidence, which theories based on modern urbanism often lack. Additionally, it is important to highlight both commonalities and culture-specific traits of urban manifestations during the pharaonic period, which encompasses almost 3000 years. This longevity provides an exceptional opportunity to follow long-term trajectories and changes.…

Paperback. Condición: New. In this book, Nadine Moeller challenges prevailing views on Egypt's non-urban past and argues for Egypt as an early urban society. She traces the emergence of urban features during the Predynastic period up to the disintegration of the powerful Middle Kingdom state (c.3500-1650 BC). This book offers a synthesis of the archaeological data that sheds light on the different facets of urbanism in ancient Egypt. Drawing on evidence from recent excavations as well as a vast body of archaeological data, this book explores the changing settlement patterns by contrasting periods of strong political control against those of decentralization. It also discusses households and the layout of domestic architecture, which are key elements for understanding how society functioned and evolved over time. Moeller reveals what settlement patterns can tell us about the formation of complex society and the role of the state in urban development in ancient Egypt.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Neuere Deutsche Literatur, Note: 2,3, Universität Potsdam, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Neben seinem großen Einfluss auf die moderne Dichtung gilt Bertold Brecht als einer der bedeutendsten Dramatiker des 20. Jahrhunderts. Zeit seines Lebens standen Dramen im Mittelpunkt seines künstlerischen Schaffens. Das moderne Drama verdankt seine Entwicklung unter anderem Brechts Wirken rund um das experimentelle Theater. Bertold Brechts Werke sind bekannt für seine sehr ausdrucksvolle Sprache und behandeln fast immer gesellschaftliche Fragen seiner Zeit.So gestaltet 'Der gute Mensch von Sezuan' den Gegensatz von Markt und Menschlichkeit. Entstanden ist das Stück im Wesentlichen im Exil zwischen den Jahren 1939 - 1941.In seinem Drama, welches als Parabel angelegt ist, verarbeitet Brecht seine Erfahrungen mit dem aufkommenden Nationalsozialismus sowie der wirtschaftlichen Not in der Weimarer Republik. Kritiker Brechts sehen in dem Stück vor allem einen Angriff gegen die christliche Religion. Zu Beginn des Dramas kommen drei Götter auf die Erde, um den Klagen der Menschen an ihrer Weltordnung nachzugehen. In ihrem Beschluss heißt es, 'die Welt kann bleiben, wie sie ist, wenn genügend gute Menschen gefunden werden, die ein menschenwürdiges Dasein leben können.' Schnell wird deutlich, dass sie den Beschluss nicht erfüllen können, wodurch ihnen letztendlich ein Mensch genüge sein muss. In der Prostituierten Shen Te glauben die Götter ihren guten Menschen gefunden zu haben. Die Götter statten sie mit einem kleinen Kapital aus und ermahnen sie zum Gutsein. Doch gerade weil sie versucht, gut zu sein, droht sie zu scheitern. Nur dadurch, dass sie sich als ihr böser Vetter Shui Ta ausgibt, der mit Härte und unsauberen Mitteln agiert, gelingt es ihr, ihr Überleben zu sichern. Zum Ende des Dramas muss sie ihre Doppelrolle den Göttern preisgeben und bekennt:Euer einstiger Befehl / Gut zu sein und doch zu leben / Zerriß mich wie ein Blitz in zwei Hälften. Ich / Weiß nicht, wie es kam: gut sein zu andern / Und zu mir konnte ich nicht zugleich / [.] Für eure großen Pläne, ihr Götter / War ich armer Mensch zu klein. Das Drama spielt in der fiktiven Hauptstadt Sezuan, in der Arbeitslosigkeit und Verarmung allgegenwärtig sind. Bereits zu Beginn des Dramas wird die Stadt als halb europäisiert charakterisiert. Das erklärt auch, warum Rückständigkeit und Fortschritt nebeneinander existieren.…
