Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Romantik. Journal for the Study of Romanticisms' is a multidisciplinary journal dedicated to the study of romantic-era cultural productions and concepts. The journal promotes innovative research across disciplinary borders. It aims to advance new historical discoveries, forward-looking theoretical insights and cutting-edge methodological approaches. The articles range over the full variety of cultural practices, including the written word, visual arts, history, philosophy, religion, and theatre during the romantic period (c. 1780-1840). But contributions to the discussion of pre- or post-romantic representations are also welcome. Since the romantic era was characterized by an emphasis on the vernacular, the title of the journal has been chosen to reflect the Germanic root of the word. But the journal is interested in all European romanticisms - and not least the connections and disconnections between them - hence, the use of the plural in the subtitle. Romantik is a peer-reviewed journal supported by the Nordic Board for Periodicals in the Humanities and Social Sciences (NOP-HS).…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Amateur film and amateur media practices have attracted increasing interest in recent decades in the context of the 'visual turn'. Questions of agency, participatory and political/militant film practices, and of representations of 'self' and 'other' are of interest as well as the institutions and networks of amateur productions. This special issue of 'zeitgeschichte' contributes to this field of research by examining international and transnational developments of amateur films in the period after the Second World War. The collected contributions analyze national specifics and regional shapings of practices as well as cultural constructions in amateur film and video, they trace transnational entanglements of amateur media and tackle cross-border amateur filmmaking and internationally and globally shared discursive references and uses of metaphors in video activism. The authors elaborate parallels to organizational structures in amateur film practices in specific sociopolitical and cultural contexts and discuss aspects of memory and the appropriation of hegemonic visual cultures in individual film practices.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Trauma and Meaning Making highlights multiple practices of meaning making after traumatic events in the lives of individuals and communities. Meaning making consists both in a personal journey towards a new way to exist and live in a world shattered by trauma and in public politics locating and defining what has happened. In both perspectives, the collection evaluates the impact achieved by naming the victim/s and thus the right of the victim/s to suffer from its aftermath or by refusing to recognise the traumatic event and thus the right of the victim/s to respond to it. A range of paradigms and techniques invite readers to consider anew the specificities of context and relationship while negotiating post-traumatic survival. By delineating how one makes sense of traumatic events, this volume will enable readers to draw links between practices grounded in diverse disciplines encompassing creative arts, textual analysis, public and collective communication, psychology and psychotherapy, memory and memorial.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Wozu braucht der Mensch, das aristotelische animal rationale, eigentlich Affekte Was ermöglichen uns Emotionen wie Freude, Wut und Glück, Stimmungen wie Verzweiflung, Gereiztheit oder Euphorie oder existenzielle Gefühle wie Entfremdung und Vertrautheit, was wir nicht auch ohne sie bewerkstelligen könnten - und womöglich sogar, befreit von der anarchischen Irrationalität unserer Leidenschaften, besser Haben Gefühle einen eigenen Erkenntniswert, zum Beispiel im Bereich des Sozialen oder des Politischen, die einem »Animal emotionale« gegenüber einem »bloßen« Animal rationale Vorteile verschaffen Wie lassen sich tiefgreifende Veränderungen im emotionalen Erleben der Welt und der eigenen Verfasstheit, wie sie zum Beispiel im Zusammenhang mit psychiatrischen Störungen auftreten, beschreiben und ausgleichen oder zumindest auffangen Können Gefühle auf dieselbe oder zumindest ähnliche Art und Weise »unangemessen« sein, wie etwa Überzeugungen falsch sein können, oder gilt De affectibus non est disputandum Fragen wie diese standen und stehen im Zentrum der Forschung des Philosophen und Kognitionswissenschaftlers Achim Stephan. Anlässlich seiner Emeritierung beziehen Weggefährtinnen und Weggefährten in dieser Festschrift Stellung zu den Leitfragen interdisziplinärer Emotionsforschung.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Hundert Jahre nach dem Untergang Galiziens als territoriale Verwaltungseinheit der Habsburger Monarchie geht dieser Band der Frage nach, was von dem knapp 150 Jahre bestehenden Kronland und seiner multikulturellen Lebenswelt geblieben ist, was durch historische Wandlungsprozesse verloren ging und welche neuen Perspektiven in der Forschung zu Galizien eingeschlagen werden können.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Pedagogies of magic have their own cocooned metaphors waiting to hatch. In literature and the arts, magic ties its practitioners to systems of learning and methods of becoming. Enchanted Pedagogies, edited by Kari Adelaide Razdow, is a collection of essays by artists and writers who reflect on archetypes and tropes of enchantment, intertwining elements such as transformation, imagination, creativity, and empathy. These essays evoke shapeshifters, witches, ghosts, fools, fairies, hags, gnomes, selkies, and more, exploring multi-disciplinary artistic practices. Enchanted Pedagogies presents ways to expand, imagine, and circumvent modes of creativity and pedagogies through personal, theoretical, practice based, and hybrid explorations. The fantastic and poetic intertwine in a space of reflexive storytelling, renewing significant transformational elements of the arts and education.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - How did overseas Europeans participate in the two world wars' effort Which were the tensions around mobilization How did the war affect their identity and their descendants What were their mobilization's effects on the relationship with the adopted homelands These closely intertwined issues connect to the central argument of the book: war exerted a crucial influence on the configuration - and reconfiguration - of those European communities' national or ethnic identities and made evident their transnational nature. Through different case studies, this volume approached the multi-faceted, complex, and fluid nature of immigrant collective identities under the pressures and challenges of total wars. Contributors are: Juan Pablo Artinian, Juan Luis Carrellán Ruiz, Hernán M. Díaz, Norman Fraser Brown, Marcelo Huernos, Milagros Martínez-Flener, Norman Fraser Brown, Germán C. Friedmann, María Inés Tato, and Stefan Rinke. Transatlantic Battles: European Immigrant Communities in South America and the World Wars is now available in paperback for individual customers.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Between Freedom and Security' is an attempt at an interdisciplinary, humanistic-technical consideration of the problem of the need of the self-realizing human being to meet the requirements imposed on him by, among other things, technical norms and legal regulations, which in a certain sense form the framework for his functioning (in a sense the limitation of the individual) and his subjective reception of freedom. Recognizing that the need for freedom and the need for security are constitutive for the self-realizing subject, the contributors present the different aspects of security and the constraints associated with it, and make suggestions for bridging the existing dissonance between what is objectively necessary and what is subjectively and individually justified. …

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Ein aktueller Überblick zur Ideen- und Missbrauchsgeschichte eines schillernden Schlagworts, aber auch zu seinen Potenzialen als philosophisches Analysewerkzeug.Die Wortgeschichte von 'Weltanschauung' ist kurz: Zwischen seinem ersten, eher beiläufigen Auftauchen bei Kant 1790, subjektivierenden Aufladungen in der Romantik und den inflationären Ideologisierungen und Politisierungen von 'Weltanschauung' im späten 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhundert liegen nur 150 Jahre. Besonders sein Missbrauch durch NS-Ideologen hat das Wort in Verruf gebracht, es lebt aber u.a. im juristischen Sprachgebrauch fort und erlebt in der gegenwärtigen Religionskritik wieder etwas Konjunktur: Dort wird z.T. wieder eine naturalistische 'wissenschaftliche Weltanschauung' in Aussicht gestellt. Als philosophisches Analysewerkzeug hat das Wort aber Potenzial: 'Weltanschauung' könnte nicht nur für religiös-politische Bewertungen stehen, sondern auch für jenes implizite theoretische Koordinatensystem, das jeden Menschen in seinem Verstehen, Denken und Handeln leitet.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Establishing truly respectful, mutually beneficial, and equitable knowledge creation partnerships with diverse communities poses significant challenges for academia. Bridging Knowledge Cultures provides valuable insights into the dynamics involved and the obstacles encountered when attempting to establish meaningful research partnerships between different knowledge domains. This book goes beyond exploration by offering practical recommendations to overcome these challenges and forge effective collaboration between mainstream research institutions and community groups and organizations.

The overarching goal of this book is to inspire the next generation of researchers and professionals to embrace the richness of diverse perspectives and knowledge cultures. By advocating for the construction of 'bridges' through practical approaches, the book encourages a shift from competition to collaboration in research. Ultimately, it aims to foster an environment where different forms of knowledge can intersect and thrive, leading to a more inclusive and comprehensive understanding of the world around us.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Translating Technology in Africa brings together authors from different disciplines who engage with Science and Technology Studies (STS) to stimulate curiosity about the diversity of sociotechnical assemblages on the African continent. The contributions provide detailed praxeographic examinations of technologies at work in postcolonial contexts. The series of 5 volumes aims to catalyse the development of a field of research that is still in its infancy in Africa and promises to offer novel insights into past, present, and future challenges and opportunities facing the continent. The first volume, on 'Metrics', explores practices of quantification and digitisation. The chapters examine how numbers are aggregated and how the resulting metrics shape new realities. Contributors include Kevin. P. Donovan, Véra Ehrenstein, Jonathan Klaaren, Emma Park, Helen Robertson, René Umlauf and Helen Verran.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The island has historically played a special role in the cultural imagination - sometimes as a place of promise of tranquillity; at other times the remoteness has seemed attractive for more sinister reasons. Using islands for extreme exclusion has a long history and remains important for understanding the complexities of inclusive education. This volume presents new case studies of island exclusion of prisoners, people with disability, and refugees in the Global North and South. It also offers reflections on practices of re-inclusion and the larger issues of inclusive education.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - This volume contributes to the advancement of comparative education in the world, more specifically in expanding understandings of the discourse of comparative education vis-à-vis educational transformation. Throughout the text, three critical elements that reflect comparative education as an open, inconclusive discourse come up: (1) There is sufficient pedagogical space for dissonance. It is always possible to compare one's own authenticity with the epistemological position others hold dear and argue for. (2) The contributions in this book should not be read as absolute pieces of writing as that would undermine the flexible nature of education. It is important to point out that the opinions of the authors are temporary moments of attachment to persuasive claims. However, these claims are not cast in stone as new views continue to emerge from epistemological (re)positioning. (3) Our own reading of the book corroborates our interest in comparative education as a continuous discourse in the making. The contributions of scholars at the third symposium organized by WCCES provided a platform for them to pursue their knowledge interests. In addition, these interests have and will or ought never to be homogenous for that would be incommensurate with a defensible practice of comparative education.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Sociology for Durkheim was by no means a knowledge closed in its specificity. It was rather an open science, permeable to contributions coming from other disciplines. For him, the task of sociology was to study what held societies together, giving place to reflective change and progressive development. This is an epistemological and political model that still retains all its relevance today: an example to be rediscovered against any reductionist conception of the vocation and object of social sciences; an encouragement to see sociology as an indispensable protagonist for an authentic interdisciplinary dialogue in the field of humanities. It is one of the best legacies Durkheim left us, that this book attempts to illustrate. \*Émile Durkheim: Sociology as an Open Science is now available in paperback for individual customers.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Henry Longueville Mansel (1820-1871), Anglican theologian and philosopher, has wrongly been remembered as a Kantian agnostic whose ideas led to those of Herbert Spencer. Francesca Norman's book provides a thorough revisioning of Mansel's theology in context and reveals the personal basis of Spencer's animus towards Mansel. Mansel is revealed as an orthodox Anglican theistic personalist whose ideas inspired Newman to write his Grammar of Assent. Located in context, Mansel's personal connections with leading Tory figures such as Lord Carnarvon and Benjamin Disraeli are explored. Key controversies with Frederick Denison Maurice and John Stuart Mill are interpreted with reference to the party political elections of 1859 and 1865. Norman offers a vital vision of nineteenth-century theology, philosophy, and politics.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Latin love elegy's flourishing concurrent with Rome's transition from Republic to Principate has remained an issue central to scholarship on the genre since the turn of the last millennium. This book addresses the Greco-Roman literary inheritance and Augustan socio-political context that paved the way for that flourishing, while examining the genre's key elements and characters as illustrated in the poetry of Propertius, Tibullus, Ovid, and Sulpicia. Special attention is paid to the gendered dynamics that govern the relationship between 'poet-lover' (amator) and beloved and to the role of the poet as artist and creator of a 'written girl' (scripta puella).…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Faced with the migration crisis which has turned the sea into a graveyard for sea migrants, this book addresses the issue by examining the international legal framework which enjoins States and other actors at sea to come to the rescue of migrants in distress at sea. The book seeks to provide a legal argument which obliges the international community to protect even illegal migrants who willingly and intentionally endanger their lives at sea, while ensuring that these rights and obligations are not abused. Multifarious branches of International Law defend this position.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -New Testament letters are compared with private, business, and administrative letters of Greco-Roman antiquity and analyzed against this background. More than 11,800 Greek and Latin letters - preserved on papyrus, potsherds, and tablets from Egypt, Israel, Asia Minor, North Africa, Britain, and Switzerland - have been edited so far. Among them are not only short notes by writers with poor writing skills, but also extensive letters and correspondences from highly educated authors. They testify to the literary skills of Paul of Tarsus, who knew how to make excellent use of epistolary formulas and even introduced new variations. They also show that some New Testament letters clearly fall outside the framework of standard epistolography, raising new questions about their authors and their genre. The introductions and discussions offered in this volume reflect the current state of the art and present new research results. The volume also presents over 130 papyrus and ostracon letters newly translated in their entirety. 455 pp. Englisch. …

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The Platonic corpus is a collection of texts written under Plato's name. It is fairly inconvenient for us, modern readers, that it includes texts hardly authored by Plato, but we are normally able, or deem ourselves so, to tell the difference between spurious and authentic material. Yet that 'either-or' logic might be too simplistic to account for the specifics of 'school accumulation', which continued more or less till the end of the Hellenistic epoch and implied imitation rather than deception: the Platonic corpus was in the making as long as the Academy existed. And so were its separate components: authorial and editorial revisions and 'updates' of dialogues are signalled both by ancient sources and by modern computational techniques. In eleven chapters provided by twelve specialists in the field, this volume explores the Platonic corpus as a living whole in its dynamic and complex development. Two major sets of questions are addressed here. The first concerns the individual components of the corpus, the institutional and philosophical context of their emergence, and questions of authorship and revision. The second question has to do with the corpus as a whole, with the progressive organization of the dialogues into a recognized body of work, including both ancient and modern editions and classifications, as well as the formation and transformations of the canon.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Regeln sind allgegenwärtig. Sie leiten unser Handeln in den Wissenschaften ebenso wie in Recht, Politik, Wirtschaft und im alltäglichen Leben. Die vorliegende philosophische Analyse wirft einen genauen Blick darauf, wie Regeln funktionieren, wie sie Handeln koordinieren und wie sie beurteilt werden können. Eine Regelanalyseunter sprechakttheoretischen Voraussetzungen erlaubt es, die handlungsanleitende Kraft von Regeln zu erklären sowie Regeln argumentativ zu beurteilen. Mit der Bereitstellung eines grundlegenden und anwendungsbezogenen Rahmenwerks der Beurteilung können konkrete und begründete Beurteilungen (zum Beispiel in moralischer Hinsicht) vorgenommen werden. Die Anwendung des hier entwickelten Evaluationsinstrumentariums wird anhand der deutschen Düngeverordnung unter Bezug auf eine Nachhaltigkeitstheorieillustriert. Die gewonnenen Forschungsergebnisse sind auch für Nachbardisziplinen der Philosophie wie Rechts-, Sozial-, Wirtschafts-sowie Politikwissenschaft relevant.…

Neuware - This book is available in open access thanks to the generous support of the Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan This is the first monographic study of the reception of Herman Hugo's emblem book Pia desideria (1624) in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. It discusses ten different translations and adaptations, showing how the engravings, elegies and exegetical extracts of the original edition were used by Polish-speaking authors. Attention is also given to the reception of the engravings in paintings. Furthermore, the author examines the reasons for the book's popularity, proving that it was determined by the interest of women who did not know Latin, yet constituted the most important target group for the numerous and varied Polish adaptations.…

The authors consider what compliance means and whether it has been achieved in UNCLOS dispute settlement. We suggest what other outcomes have sometimes eventuated from UNCLOS dispute settlement and propose steps that may be taken to enhance judgment compliance.…
