    Abstract: In The Digital, a Continent?, the author argues in favor of a way of thinking about digital technology that draws on the new materialism. She uses photosynthesis and nuclear fission as examples of processes that are as artificial as they are natural to explain how digital technology can be viewed within the paradigm of a ""communicative physics"" in which poetics interacts with mathematical thinking. The author concludes that we can better understand ourselves and digital technology by developing notions of the multifaceted ways energy, form, and intellect interact in global architectonics.

    Abstract: Die Autorin erörtert eine Denkweise über digitale Technik, die sich auf den neuen Materialismus stützt. The Digital, a Continent? verwendet dabei beispielhaft die Photosynthese und die Kernspaltung als ebenso künstliche wie natürliche Prozesse, um zu erklären, wie die digitale Technik im Paradigma einer „kommunikativen Physik"" gesehen werden kann und in der Poetik mit mathematischem Denken zusammenspielt. Die Autorin schlussfolgert, dass wir uns selbst und die digitale Technik besser verstehen können, wenn wir Vorstellungen davon entwickeln, wie Energie, Form und Intellekt in einer Architektonik von Welt in vielfältiger Weise zusammenspielen.

    Abstract: In his 1979 essay The Postmodern Condition: A Report on Knowledge philosopher Jean-François Lyotard noted that the advent of the computer opened up a stage of progress in which knowledge has become a commodity. Modernity and postmodernity appear as two stages of a process resulting from the conflict of science and narrative. As science attempts to distance itself from narrative, it must create its own legitimacy. This paper takes up this challenge with a focus on the question of imagery. The image is precisely what modern science seeks to free itself from in its quest for absolute transparency. This transparency is examined from the perspective of architecture, drawing on arguments from philosophy, quantum mechanics, theology and information theory.

    Abstract: Naturwissenschaft im Zeichen der Postmoderne Quantenmechanik und Informationstheorie Neuer Band der Reihe Applied Virtuality Book Series In seinem 1979 erschienenen Essay Das postmoderne Wissen stellte Jean-François Lyotard fest, dass die Einführung des Computers ein Stadium des Fortschritts definiert, in dem Wissen zur Ware wird. Moderne und Postmoderne erscheinen als zwei Stadien eines Prozesses, der aus dem Konflikt der Wissenschaft mit den Narrativen resultiert: Während die Wissenschaft versucht, sich vom Narrativen zu distanzieren, muss sie ihre eigene Legitimation schaffen. Die vorliegende Abhandlung greift die Herausforderung im Zeichen des Bildes auf. Das Bild ist genau das, wovon sich die moderne Wissenschaft auf der Suche nach absoluter Transparenz zu befreien versucht. Diese Transparenz wird unter architektonischen Gesichtspunkten untersucht, die von der Philosophie bis zur Quantenmechanik, von der Theologie bis zur Informationstheorie reichen

    Abstract: The use of natural raw materials is today more significant in architecture than ever before. While timber construction is already firmly established in the field of architecture, there is an increasing focus on alternative construction materials such as clay, straw, cork or bamboo, along with their application features. In full alignment with sustainable construction, they make it possible to plan energy-optimised, recyclable and climate-friendly buildings for the future. The book shows how this can be achieved based on 30 projects of all sizes. The buildings present the entire spectrum of natural materials. They show numerous construction and application methods of the different building materials. This book manifests what is possible using natural construction materials in great detail
    Abstract: Der Einsatz von natürlichen Rohstoffen ist heute in der Architektur bedeutender denn je. Während der konstruktive Holzbau bereits fest in der Architektur verankert ist, rücken immer mehr alternative Baustoffe wie Lehm, Stroh, Kork oder Bambus ins Blickfeld.

    Abstract: This book offers a systematic account of the process of designing in architecture. Design thinking can be regarded as a fundamentally different way of knowing the world and a particular form of addressing creative problems. In this publication, the authors undertake to explore multiple and often controversial theoretical stances on the topic. Underlying principles of inquiry are present in all designing and a process takes place involving empathy or listening carefully before storytelling. Prototyping and testing of solutions are illustrated in the book with many examples, seen from different vantage points. In short, design thinking is a way of knowing and enabling being in the world and leads to a better understanding of architecture. Brilliant tour de force through several centuries of design thinking Peter G.

    Abstract: Dieses Buch bietet eine systematische Darstellung des Entwurfsprozesses in der Architektur. Entwurfsdenken (""Design Thinking"") kann als eine besondere Herangehensweise an gestalterische Fragen, betrachtet werden. In dieser Publikation erkunden die Autoren die vielfältigen und oft kontroversen theoretischen Standpunkte zu diesem Thema. Allen Entwürfen liegen Untersuchungsprinzipien zugrunde und es findet ein Prozess statt, der Empathie oder aufmerksames Zuhören vor dem Erzählen von Geschichten beinhaltet. Das Testen von Lösungen wird in dem Buch mit Beispielen veranschaulicht, die aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln beleuchtet werden. ""Design Thinking"" ist eine grundlegende Art, die gebaute Umgebung zu begreifen und zu gestalten, und führt zu einem besseren Verständnis von Architektur. Brillante Tour de Force durch mehrere Jahrhunderte des Entwurfsdenkens Peter G.

    Abstract: Gibt es überzeugende Überforderungseinwände gegen anspruchsvolle moralische Auffassungen? In der vorliegenden Abhandlung werden Überforderungseinwände sorgfältig charakterisiert, systematisch eingeordnet und argumentativ verteidigt. Unter Berücksichtigung der wichtigsten Beiträge zum Thema wird gezeigt, dass gewisse Moraltheorien oder -prinzipien zurückgewiesen werden können, weil sie zu viel von einzelnen Personen verlangen. Wenn moralische Forderungen die Grenzen dessen übersteigen, was vernünftigerweise von Menschen erwartet werden kann, dann lassen sie sich als zu anspruchsvoll kritisieren. Im Hinblick darauf, was für eine erfolgreiche Verteidigung von Überforderungseinwänden erforderlich ist, werden intuitionen-, theorie- und erklärungsbasierte Strategien geprüft. Dabei wird die These vertreten, dass Überforderungseinwände verteidigt werden können, wenn sich eine grundlegende und eigenständige Erklärung dafür finden lässt, weshalb anspruchsvolle moralische Auffassungen überfordernd sein können. In Auseinandersetzung mit den Ansätzen von Bernard Williams, Douglas W. Portmore und Samuel Scheffler wird daher ein entsprechender Vorschlag ausgearbeitet, der weder zu schwach noch zu stark oder zu wenig gut begründet ist

    Keywords: Australasian & Pacific history ; Indigenous peoples ; Second World War
    Abstract: War at the Margins offers a broad comparative view of the impact of World War II on Indigenous societies. Using historical and ethnographic sources, Lin Poyer examines how Indigenous communities emerged from the trauma of the wartime era with social forms and cultural ideas that laid the foundations for their twenty-first century emergence as players on the world's political stage. With a focus on Indigenous voices and agency, a global overview reveals the enormous range of wartime activities and impacts on these groups, connecting this work with comparative history, Indigenous studies, and anthropology. The distinctiveness of Indigenous peoples offers a valuable perspective on World War II, as those on the margins of Allied and Axis empires and nation-states were drawn in as soldiers, scouts, guides, laborers, and victims. Questions of loyalty and citizenship shaped Indigenous combat roles-from integration in national armies to service in separate ethnic units to unofficial use of their special skills, where local knowledge tilted the balance in military outcomes. Front lines crossed Indigenous territory most consequentially in northern Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands, but the impacts of war go well beyond combat. Like others around the world, Indigenous civilian men and women suffered bombing and invasion, displacement, forced labor, military occupation, and economic and social disruption. Infrastructure construction and demand for key resources affected even areas far from front lines. World War II dissolved empires and laid the foundation for the postcolonial world. Indigenous people in newly independent nations struggled for autonomy, while other veterans returned to home fronts still steeped in racism. National governments saw military service as evidence that Indigenous peoples wished to assimilate, but wartime experiences confirmed many communities' commitment to their home cultures and opened new avenues for activism. By century's end, Indigenous Rights became an international political force, offering alternative visions of how the global order might make room for greater local self-determination and cultural diversity. In examining this transformative era, War at the Margins adds an important contribution to both World War II history and to the development of global Indigenous identity

    Abstract: In his letters, the church scholar Jerome describes a deep inner rift between Virgil and the gospels, between Cicero and the apostles. This volume traces late ancient processes of cultural hybridization using methods from digital quote analysis. By looking at quotes from the Aeneid, it examines the narrative strategies employed by Jerome to process the tension-filled relationship between classical antiquity and Christianity
    Abstract: In seinen rhetorisch äußerst versierten Briefen thematisiert der Kirchenlehrer Hieronymus eine tiefe innere Zerrissenheit zwischen Vergil und den Evangelien, zwischen Cicero und den Aposteln. Der vorliegende Band spürt diesen kulturellen Transformationsprozessen anhand der Intertextualitätsstrategie des Hieronymus nach. Das Erkenntnisinteresse ist dabei zweigeteilt in einen methodischen und einen inhaltlichen Teil. Einerseits werden digitale Verfahren der Zitatanalyse (weiter)entwickelt und evaluiert. Mit den computergestützten Verfahren wird der Bestand an Zitaten am Beispiel der Aeneis um mehr als ein Drittel deutlich erweitert und dabei zugleich das theoretische Zitatkonzept maßgeblich geschärft. Andererseits wird mit hermeneutischen Verfahren eine Zitattypologie erstellt, mittels derer nicht nur die ‚Grenze‘ der Textinterpretation aufgezeigt, sondern auch ein differenzierteres Bild der Zitiertechnik des Hieronymus gezeichnet wird. Die Arbeit legt eine sprachlich-stilistische Hybridisierung offen, die eine modifizierte und vertiefte Einsicht in die tatsächlichen, untergründigen Anverwandlungen des klassisch-heidnischen Literaturerbes durch den frühchristlichen Autor ermöglicht

    Abstract: In this book, the author develops a theory of metaphors according to which metaphorical interpretations result from an interaction between certain linguistic properties of expressions and similarity-based processes of interpretation. Besides avoiding problems of other available theories of metaphor, his approach also provides valuable insights about other tropes such as irony or metonymy as well as about the relationship between semantics and pragmatics

Metaphorische Interpretation liegen gemäß diesem dann vor, wenn Ausdrücke bestimmte, in dieser Arbeit spezifizierte, linguistische Eigenschaften besitzen und zugleich auf der Basis von Ähnlichkeitsüberlegungen interpretiert werden.

    Iconographies of Occupation : Visual Cultures in Wang Jingwei’s China, 1939–1945 (2021)

    Abstract: Iconographies of Occupation is the first book to address how the “collaborationist” Reorganized National Government (RNG) in Japanese-occupied China sought to visualize its leader, Wang Jingwei (1883–1944); the Chinese people; and China itself. It explores the ways in which this administration sought to present itself to the people over which it ruled at different points between 1939, when the RNG was first being formulated, and August 1945, when it folded itself out of existence. What sorts of visual tropes were used in regime iconography and how were these used? What can the intertextual movement of visual tropes and motifs tell us about RNG artists and intellectuals and their understanding of the occupation and the war? Drawing on rarely before used archival records relating to propaganda and a range of visual media produced in occupied China by the RNG, the book examines the means used by this “client regime” to carve out a separate visual space for itself by reviving pre-war Chinese methods of iconography and by adopting techniques, symbols, and visual tropes from the occupying Japanese and their allies. Ultimately, however, the “occupied gaze” that was developed by Wang’s administration was undermined by its ultimate reliance on Japanese acquiescence for survival. In the continually shifting and fragmented iconographies that the RNG developed over the course of its short existence, we find an administration that was never completely in control of its own fate—or its message. Iconographies of Occupation presents a thoroughly original visual history approach to the study of a much-maligned regime and opens up new ways of understanding its place in wartime China. It also brings China under the RNG into dialogue with broader theoretical debates about the significance of “the visual” in the cultural politics of foreign occupation

    Abstract: Poetas hispanoamericanas contemporáneas: poéticas y metapoéticas (Siglos XX–XXI) reúne estudios sobre las poéticas –fundamentalmente las «poéticas explícitas de poetas» (Demmers), con la inclusión de las artes poéticas–, en torno a otros poemas y textos metapoéticos, y sobre las poéticas implícitas. El aporte fundamental del libro radica en la valorización del elemento metapoético y autorreflexivo en las poetas hispanoamericanas, ya que la investigación en torno al arte poética y a la metapoesía se ha centrado ante todo, hasta hoy, en autores masculinos. Con sus acercamientos a Gabriela Mistral, Claribel Alegría, Ana Enriqueta Terán, Carilda Oliver, Amanda Berenguer, Fina García Marruz, Rosario Castellanos, Susana Thénon, Carmen Ollé, Cristina Peri Rossi, Reina María Rodríguez, Tamara Kamenszain, Cristina Rivera Garza, entre otras, el libro pretende contribuir a abrir el canon metapoético a la escritura de las mujeres

    Poetas hispanoamericanas contemporáneas : Poéticas y metapoéticas (siglos XX–XXI) (2021)

    Keywords: Literature: history & criticism
    Abstract: Poetas hispanoamericanas contemporáneas: poéticas y metapoéticas (Siglos XX–XXI) reúne estudios sobre las poéticas –fundamentalmente las «poéticas explícitas de poetas» (Demmers), con la inclusión de las artes poéticas–, en torno a otros poemas y textos metapoéticos, y sobre las poéticas implícitas. El aporte fundamental del libro radica en la valorización del elemento metapoético y autorreflexivo en las poetas hispanoamericanas, ya que la investigación en torno al arte poética y a la metapoesía se ha centrado ante todo, hasta hoy, en autores masculinos. Con sus acercamientos a Gabriela Mistral, Claribel Alegría, Ana Enriqueta Terán, Carilda Oliver, Amanda Berenguer, Fina García Marruz, Rosario Castellanos, Susana Thénon, Carmen Ollé, Cristina Peri Rossi, Reina María Rodríguez, Tamara Kamenszain, Cristina Rivera Garza, entre otras, el libro pretende contribuir a abrir el canon metapoético a la escritura de las mujeres

    Language and Truth in North Korea (2021)

    ISBN: 9780824888718 , 9780824886288
    Language: Undetermined
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource
    Keywords: Historical & comparative linguistics ; Central government policies ; Asian history ; Media studies
    Abstract: In this innovative and persuasive volume, Sonia Ryang offers new ways to think about North Korea and how truth emerges over decades from within a dominant discourse. It explores four discrete yet mutually related domains of discourse: North Korea's literary purge of the 1950s-1960s; its state-initiated linguistic reforms of the 1960s-1980s; stories from a people's chronicle, more than one hundred volumes in length, documenting interactions with the Great Leader, Kim Il Sung; and the multivolume memoirs of the Great Leader himself, published in the 1990s. These texts are heterogeneous in terms of authorship, style, purpose, and genre, and many have never before been explored in Anglophone studies of North Korea. All have contributed to consolidating a North Korean regime of truth, bringing into existence a set of assumptions and shared understandings that have been regarded as true over the last half century. Basing her work on a study of these linguistic and discursive domains, Ryang explores the ways in which power, truth, and self are indissolubly connected by function as well as efficacy and how language plays a key role in sustaining their validity. The Kim Il Sung era, from 1945 to Kim's death in 1994, forms the basis of the book, but the way truth emerged and was sustained during these decades provide important insight into how we can comprehend North Korea today. Rather than view the country as an ideological entity in order to expose its falsehood, so to speak, thinking critically about what it sees as true yields a far more productive outcome for scholarly analysis as well as general understanding. Language and Truth in North Korea will find a ready audience among those interested in North Korea from a wide variety of disciplines, including the social sciences, history, philosophy, and theology

    Abstract: The monograph presents the complex analysis and evaluation of the changes of the social-spatial genotype of the large Lithuanian cities (Kaunas, Klaipėda and Vilnius) determined by the modernist urbanization of the Soviet era using the interdisciplinary theory of networks and mathematical network models as the main methodological tools. The idea behind the monograph is the following: the modernistic urbanism not only introduced the new spatial configurations in specific location of a city with a specific social scenario of public space usage, but essentially affected how city is functioning as a whole. Soviet transformations of three Lithuanian cities from 1939 till 2016 are used as a good example of above mentioned revolutionary processes

    Abstract: Der öffentliche Meinungsstreit, ob der Islam inzwischen zu Deutschland gehört oder nicht, ist trotz präsidialer Stellungnahmen nicht abschließend entschieden. Kaum bewegen sich Positionen aufeinander zu, reißen politische Ereignisse Gräben auf, die gerade erst zugeschüttet schienen. Dabei sind die gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen hoch: Nicht weniger als kulturelle Synthesen werden als Chance für Fremdverstehen und das „Zugehörigkeitsprojekt Deutschland“ eingefordert. Durch wechselseitige Schuldzuweisungen geraten jedoch die Grundlagen für einvernehmliches Zusammenleben leicht aus dem Blick, und dies schadet der Bildung von sozialen Identitäten von Nichtmuslimen wie Muslimen in Deutschland. Die Autorinnen und Autoren dieses Sammelbandes leisten einen Beitrag, die Diskussion zu versachlichen, indem sie aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven Denkanstöße zum Thema „Islam“ geben. Sie argumentieren aus ihrer Arbeit in der Kinder- und Jugendhilfe, an Universitäten, Akademien, wissenschaftlichen Instituten

    Abstract: This study proposes a revised interpretation of Foucault’s views on literature. It has been argued that the philosopher’s interest in literature was limited to the 1960s and of a mostly depoliticized nature. However, Foucault’s previously unpublished later works suggest a different reality, showing a sustained interest in literature and its politics. In the light of this new material, the book repositions Foucault's ideas within recent debates on the politics of literature

    Abstract: In zahlreichen Städten Deutschlands mit Zuzug und besonders in Berlin hat sich der Kampf um die Wohnungspolitik in den letzten Monaten zugespitzt. Dabei sind die denkbaren Handlungsinstrumente vielschichtig – vom jüngst in Berlin eingeführten sogenannten „Mietendeckel bis hin zu den ebenfalls in Berlin durch ein entsprechendes Volksbegehren geprüften Enteignungen privater Wohnungsbaugesellschaften. Mit diesen beiden Vorschlägen ist eine Verschärfung der politischen Diskussion zu beobachten, die in ihrer Radikalität die Frage aufwirft, ob hier die rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen nicht nur ohne ökonomischen Sachverstand, sondern auch ohne Beachtung der rechtsstaatlichen Leitplanken modifiziert werden sollen. Ausgehend von einer knappen Skizze der ökonomischen Charakteristika von Wohnungsmärkten, klassifiziert dieser Beitrag die bereits vorhandenen und diskutierten Maßnahmen, um sodann deren verfassungsrechtliche Grenzen aufzuzeigen

    Series Statement: Beyond Boundaries
    Abstract: This conference volume unites a wide range of scholars working in the fields of history, archaeology, religion, art, and philology in an effort to explore new perspectives and methods in the study of primary sources from premodern South and Southeast Asia. The contributions engage with primary sources (including texts, images, material artefacts, monuments, as well as archaeological sites and landscapes) and draw needed attention to highly adaptable, innovative, and dynamic modes of cultural production within traditional idioms. The volume works to develop categories of historical analysis that cross disciplinary boundaries and represent a wide variety of methodological concerns. By revisiting premodern sources, Asia Beyond Boundaries also addresses critical issues of temporality and periodization that attend established categories in Asian Studies, such as the “Classical Age” or the “Gupta Period”. This volume represents the culmination of the European Research Council (ERC) Synergy project Asia Beyond Boundaries: Religion, Region, Language and the State, a research consortium of the British Museum, the British Library and the School of Oriental and African Studies, in partnership with Leiden University

    Keywords: linguistics
    Abstract: Semantics is one of the core disciplines of philosophy of language. There are basically two strands of established theories: use-based and truth-conditional, with the latter being the dominant variety. This dominance has been questioned recently by linguists who embrace a research paradigm that is known as construction grammar. As construction grammar is use-based, it seems natural to suppose that its success is indirect support for use-based semantics in philosophy. This is true. But there's still a lot to do. Although there are use-based theories that fit quite well with current research in linguistics, they are far from being perfect. In particular, the most popular theory in that area is still tied to some of the main motivations behind truth-conditional semantics. ‘Constructions in Use’ offers an alternative by proposing to let this legacy go. Instead, it argues that philosophical semantics is best off if it goes for an entirely use-based theory

Many of the contributions take the framework of Role and Reference Grammar as a point of reference, either by applying it to the analysis of linguistic data or by discussing, extending, and challenging some of its assumptions. The topics of the articles range from general questions concerning the relation of meaning and its syntactic realization to the study of specific grammatical phenomena in a number of typologically diverse languages, including Yucatec Maya, Kabardian, Tagalog, Murik-Kopar, Avatime, Whitesands, Tundra Yukaghir, and various Indo-European languages. The articles will be of interest to researchers and advanced students working on the interface between syntax, semantics and pragmatics

    Abstract: Gradation is usually considered to be a property of adjectives. Examples like 'The boy loves his mother very much' and 'The boy has grown a lot' reveal that gradation is not limited to adjectives but verbs are gradable too. Verb gradation has received considerably less attention in the literature than gradation of adjectives. The aim of the current volume is to explore the notion of verb gradation in more detail. The book presents a semantic as well as a syntactic analysis of verb gradation and combines three case studies with a general perspective on the phenomenon. Issues addressed in the volume cover, among others, the notion of scalarity in the verbal domain, the interaction of verb gradation with grammatical as well as lexical aspect and verb gradation as a subcompositional phenomenon. These topics are investigated from a cross-linguistic perspective. The languages of investigation include, among others, German, Russian and French

    Abstract: The articles in this volume present contemporary and original research on linguistic meaning, concept formation and conceptual analysis. A central theme across the articles is the question of how concepts are structured, how they are represented in the mind, and how they are expressed in language. Two introductory papers on concept types and frames set out the crucial role of attributes and frames for the representation of concepts. The topics of the contributions range from the interrelation between determination and reference of nominal expressions, the verbal and adjectival expression of attributes, and the analysis of metonymy to the frame-based representation of action-related concepts and the classification of mental disorders in psychiatry. The collection of articles provided by this volume will be of interest to researchers and advanced students in the fields of semantics, pragmatics, philosophy of mind, and the cognitive sciences

    Abstract: The comparison of sound sequences (words, morphemes) constitutes the core of many techniques and methods in historical linguistics. With the help of these techniques, corresponding sounds can be determined, historically related words can be identified, and the history of languages can be uncovered. So far, the application of traditional techniques for sequence comparison is very tedious and time-consuming, since scholars have to apply them manually, without computational support. In this study, algorithms from bioinformatics are used to develop computational methods for sequence comparison in historical linguistics. The new methods automatize several steps of the traditional comparative method and can thus help to ease the painstaking work of language comparison

    Definiteness in a Language without Articles – A Study on Polish (2021)
    [Erscheinungsort nicht ermittelbar] : De Gruyter
    Details

    Series Statement: Dissertations in Language and Cognition 3
    Keywords: linguistics
    Abstract: The aim of this book is to investigate how definiteness is expressed in Polish, a language which is claimed to have no definite and in-definite articles. The central question is how the difference in definiteness is indicated between 'a woman' and 'the woman' in Polish. In English, the definite article 'the' and the indefinite article 'a' express the category of definiteness explicitly. Since definiteness is also relevant in articleless languages, there are other means to indicate that a nominal phrase is definite or indefinite. This study is delimited to four means for expressing definiteness in Polish, which are demonstratives, aspect, case alternation, and information structure. Each strategy is investigated independently from the others, although they interact in a complex way, which is shown at the end of this book resulting in a decision tree. Polish is not investigated in isolation, however, the study is complemented by comparisons with other Slavic languages and also with a Polish dialect called 'Upper Silesian', which differs from Polish. The analysis in this book is based on Löbner’s theory of 'Concept Types and Determination' (CTD). Löbner’s distinction of the four concept types (sortal, relational, functional, individual) is crucial since definiteness phenomena under discussion can be explained. Therefore, the interaction of the four concept types with the four definiteness strategies plays a central role in this book

    Iconographies of Occupation : Visual Cultures in Wang Jingwei’s China, 1939–1945 (2021)
    [Erscheinungsort nicht ermittelbar] : University of Hawai'i Press

    ISBN: 9780824887711
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource
    Keywords: Political structure & processes ; Asian history ; Political control & freedoms
    Abstract: Iconographies of Occupation is the first book to address how the “collaborationist” Reorganized National Government (RNG) in Japanese-occupied China sought to visualize its leader, Wang Jingwei (1883–1944); the Chinese people; and China itself. It explores the ways in which this administration sought to present itself to the people over which it ruled at different points between 1939, when the RNG was first being formulated, and August 1945, when it folded itself out of existence. What sorts of visual tropes were used in regime iconography and how were these used? What can the intertextual movement of visual tropes and motifs tell us about RNG artists and intellectuals and their understanding of the occupation and the war? Drawing on rarely before used archival records relating to propaganda and a range of visual media produced in occupied China by the RNG, the book examines the means used by this “client regime” to carve out a separate visual space for itself by reviving pre-war Chinese methods of iconography and by adopting techniques, symbols, and visual tropes from the occupying Japanese and their allies. Ultimately, however, the “occupied gaze” that was developed by Wang’s administration was undermined by its ultimate reliance on Japanese acquiescence for survival. In the continually shifting and fragmented iconographies that the RNG developed over the course of its short existence, we find an administration that was never completely in control of its own fate—or its message. Iconographies of Occupation presents a thoroughly original visual history approach to the study of a much-maligned regime and opens up new ways of understanding its place in wartime China. It also brings China under the RNG into dialogue with broader theoretical debates about the significance of “the visual” in the cultural politics of foreign occupation

    Abstract: Krankenhäuser sind und bleiben perspektivisch mit 50% aller Todesfälle der häufigste Sterbeort in Deutschland. Und obwohl der Nutzen einer palliativmedizinischer Versorgung im gesamten Behandlungsverlauf wissenschaftlich gezeigt wurde, gibt es eine Forschungslücke hinsichtlich der organisatorischen und sozialen Bedingungen der Integration bzw. der Gründe für ihr Misslingen. Der Titel dieser qualitativen Untersuchung, „Sterben dürfen im Krankenhaus, beinhaltet keinen Aufruf zur aktiven Sterbehilfe. Vorgestellt werden vielmehr Studienergebnisse, die Widersprüche zwischen gesundheitspolitischen Überlegungen, ethisch-moralischem Anspruch, normativen Erwartungen und klinischer Praxis in der Behandlung Schwerstkranker und Sterbender aufzeigen: Im Kontext eines Akutkrankenhauses mit einer ökonomisierten „Durchlaufmedizin und routinierten „Arbeit im Akkord verunsichern Sterbende oder Langlieger als nicht heilbare Patient*innen den medizinischen Enthusiasmus. Zudem erschüttert die Behandlungspraxis im Krankenhaus die ärztlichen Ideale von Zeit und Raum für die Sterbebegleitung. Die vielfache Fehlversorgung Sterbender im Krankenhaus ist verbunden mit einer prekären Arbeitssituation – nicht nur im Hinweis auf den Pflegekräftemangel. Um den zentralen Behandlungsauftrag der Akutbehandlung bzw. Heilung im Krankenhaus aufrechtzuerhalten, lassen sich verschiedene ärztliche Strategien rekonstruieren: eine begriffliche Erweiterung der Akut- und/oder Heilungsorientierung um eine „formal kurative Behandlung, eine diffuse, vermeidende oder einseitig auf Heilung ausgerichtete ärztliche Aufklärung von Patient*in und Angehörigen trotz Verschlechterung der Erkrankungssituation, eine Priorisierung von kurativen vor palliativen Patient*innen bei der Aufnahme, eine schnelle Verlegung Schwerstkranker oder Sterbender aus dem eigenen Arbeitsbereich, oder aber die paradoxe Nicht-Nutzung eines Palliativkonsildienstes trotz formuliertem Unterstützungsbedarf.

This volume demonstrates that most verbs have different interpretations with different valency frames and specific conditions for omission. Accordingly, statements about omission and their semantic consequences must be applied to the interpretations of a verb."--Publisher's website

    Lived Religion in the Ancient Mediterranean World : Approaching Religious Transformations from Archaeology, History and Classics (2020)

    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (605 p.)
    Keywords: Regional studies ; History of religion ; Ancient religions & mythologies
    Abstract: The Lived Ancient Religion project has radically changed perspectives on ancient religions and their supposedly personal or public character. This volume applies and further develops these methodological tools, new perspectives and new questions. The religious transformations of the Roman Imperial period appear in new light and more nuances by comparative confrontation and the integration of many disciplines. The contributions are written by specialists from a variety of disciplinary contexts (Jewish Studies, Theology, Classics, Early Christian Studies) dealing with the history of religion of the Mediterranean, West-Asian, and European area from the (late) Hellenistic period to the (early) Middle Ages and shaped by their intensive exchange. From the point of view of their respective fields of research, the contributors engage with discourses on agency, embodiment, appropriation and experience. They present innovative research in four fields also of theoretical debate, which are “Experiencing the Religious”, “Switching the Code”, „A Thing Called Body“ and “Commemorating the Moment”

    Tempi der Bewegung – Modi des Gefühls : Expressivität, heitere Affekte und die Screwball Comedy (2020)

    Language: German

    Keywords: Films, cinema ; Film theory & criticism ; Media studies
    Abstract: Wie ist die zeitliche Gestaltung audiovisueller Bilder mit den verschiedenen Modi des Zuschauergefühls verbunden? Am Gegenstand der Screwball Comedy wird diese Frage erörtert: Die Filme des klassischen Hollywood-Genres der 1930er und 1940er präsentieren rasante Gespräche, Schlagabtausch, Wortwitz und Sprachakrobatik einer Paarinteraktion. Komik und Heiterkeit werden in erster Linie dadurch gestaltet, wie Gesten, Mimiken, Stimmen und Redeäußerungen zeitlich in das filmische Bild eingebettet sind. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird erörtert, welcher grundsätzliche Zusammenhang zwischen Bewegungsqualitäten und Affektivität besteht bzw. wie die zeitliche Gestaltung audiovisueller Bilder mit den verschiedenen Modi des Zuschauergefühls verbunden ist. In den Screwball Comedies ist das Empfinden oftmals kontrastiv-komisch gestaltet: Interaktionen von Streit und Wut werden als eleganter Tanz einer Paarbewegung wahrnehmbar. Durch diese Perspektive wird das Verhältnis von Sprachäußerung, Schauspiel und Filmbild sehr grundsätzlich befragt. Das heitere Zuschauergenießen ist weniger an narrative Handlungen gebunden als an ästhetisch-expressive Orchestrierungen, Taktungen und verkörperte Bedeutungen

    Abstract: Begründet von Michael Schmaus †, Werner Dettloff † und Richard Heinzmann Fortgeführt unter Mitwirkung von Ulrich Horst Herausgegeben von Isabelle Mandrella und Martin Thurner Das Grabmann-Institut ist eine im deutschsprachigen Raum einzigartige Einrichtung zur Erforschung und Lehre der Theologiegeschichte. Es wurde 1953 von Michael Schmaus als Institut zur Erforschung der mittelalterlichen Theologie und Philosophie gegründet, das die Forschungen und die Tradition des Vorgängers von Schmaus auf dem Münchener Lehrstuhl für Dogmatik, Martin Grabmann, fortführen soll. In der Reihe "Veröffentlichungen des Grabmann-Instituts" werden Editionen und Studien publiziert, die entweder am Grabmann-Institut selbst entstanden sind oder einen wertvollen Beitrag zu dessen Forschungsschwerpunkten beinhalten. Das Schwergewicht der Publikationsreihe liegt auf der mittelalterlichen Theologie und Philosophie, wobei sich der zeitliche Bogen aber von der ausgehenden Antike bis in die Neuzeit spannt. Das historische Interesse verbindet sich mit dem systematischen Blickwinkel. In den Bänden werden Themen aus allen systematischen Bereichen der mittelalterlichen Theologie und Philosophie behandelt sowie herausragende und bisher weniger bekannte Theologen mit ihren Werken und ihrem Einfluss vorgestellt. Gebührende Berücksichtigung finden auch die Gebiete Mystik und Spiritualität, die wesentlich zur mittelalterlichen Theologie und Philosophie gehören.

    Turning toward Edification : Foreigners in Chosŏn Korea (2020)

    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (296 p.)
    Keywords: Asian history
    Abstract: "Turning toward Edification discusses foreigners in Korea from before the founding of Chosŏn in 1392 until the mid-nineteenth century. Although it has been common to describe Chosŏn Korea as a monocultural and homogeneous state, Adam Bohnet reveals the considerable presence of foreigners and people of foreign ancestry in Chosŏn Korea as well as the importance to the Chosŏn monarchy of engagement with the outside world. These foreigners included Jurchens and Japanese from border polities that formed diplomatic relations with Chosŏn prior to 1592, Ming Chinese and Japanese deserters who settled in Chosŏn during the Japanese invasion between 1592 and 1598, Chinese and Jurchen refugees who escaped the Manchu state that formed north of Korea during the early seventeenth century, and even Dutch castaways who arrived in Chosŏn during the mid-1700s. Foreigners were administered by the Chosŏn monarchy through the tax category of “submitting-foreigner” (hyanghwain). This term marked such foreigners as uncivilized outsiders coming to Chosŏn to receive moral edification and they were granted Korean spouses, Korean surnames, land, agricultural tools, fishing boats, and protection from personal taxes. Originally the status was granted for a limited time, however, by the seventeenth century it had become hereditary. Beginning in the 1750s foreign descendants of Chinese origin were singled out and reclassified as imperial subjects (hwangjoin), giving them the right to participate in the palace-sponsored Ming Loyalist rituals. Bohnet argues that the evolution of their status cannot be explained by a Confucian or Sinocentric enthusiasm for China. The position of foreigners—Chinese or otherwise—in Chosŏn society must be understood in terms of their location within Chosŏn social hierarchies. During the early Chosŏn, all foreigners were clearly located below the sajok aristocracy. This did not change even during the eighteenth century, when the increasingly bureaucratic state recategorized Ming migrants to better accord with the Chosŏn state’s official Ming Loyalism. These changes may be understood in relation to the development of bureaucratized identities in the Qing Empire and elsewhere in the world during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and as part of the vernacularization of elite ideologies that has been noted elsewhere in Eurasia."

    The Power of Urban Water : Studies in Premodern Urbanism (2020)

    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (280 p.)
    Keywords: Classical Greek & Roman archaeology
    Abstract: Water is a global resource for modern societies - and water was a global resource for pre-modern societies. The many different water systems serving processes of urbanisation and urban life in ancient times and the Middle Ages have hardly been researched until now. The numerous contributions to this volume pose questions such as what the basic cultural significance of water was, the power of water, in the town and for the town, from different points of view. Symbolic, aesthetic, and cult aspects are taken up, as is the role of water in politics, society, and economy, in daily life, but also in processes of urban planning or in urban neighbourhoods. Not least, the dangers of polluted water or of flooding presented a challenge to urban society. The contributions in this volume draw attention to the complex, manifold relations between water and human beings. This collection presents the results of an international conference in Kiel in 2018. It is directed towards both scholars in ancient and mediaeval studies and all those interested in the diversity of water systems in urban space in ancient and mediaeval times.

    Keywords: 20th century history: c 1900 to c 2000 ; The Holocaust ; Second World War ; Migration, immigration & emigration ; Fascism & Nazism
    Abstract: After World War II, tracing and documenting Nazi victims emerged against the background of millions of missing persons and early compensation proceedings. This was a process in which the Allies, international aid organizations, and survivors themselves took part. New archives, documentation centers and tracing bureaus were founded amid the increasing Cold War divide. They gathered documents on Nazi persecution and structured them in specialized collections to provide information on individual fates and their grave repercussions: the loss of relatives, the search for a new home, physical or mental injuries, existential problems, social support and recognition, but also continued exclusion or discrimination. By doing so, institutions involved in this work were inevitably confronted with contentious issues—such as varying political mandates, neutrality vs. solidarity with those formerly persecuted, data protection vs. public interest, and many more. Over time, tracing bureaus and archives changed methods and policies and even expanded their activities, using historical documents for both research and public remembrance. This is the first publication to explore this multifaceted history of tracing and documenting past and present

    Abstract: Die 1992 gegründete Buchreihe ist interdisziplinär ausgerichtet; sie umfasst wissenschaftliche Monographien, Aufsatzsammlungen und kommentierte Quelleneditionen vom 18. Jahrhundert bis zur Gegenwart. Der Begriff deutsch-jüdische Literatur bzw. Kultur verweist auf Werke jüdischer Autoren in deutscher Sprache, insoweit jüdische Aspekte erkennbar sind. Aber auch das häufig vom Antisemitismus geprägte Judenbild nichtjüdischer Autoren wird zu einem Faktor der literarisch vermittelten deutsch-jüdischen Beziehungsgeschichte. Der Erforschung des gesamten Problemfelds bietet die Reihe ein angemessenes Forum

    Abstract: Gefördert durch die Klasse der Literatur und der Musik der Akademie der Wissenschaften und der Literatur | Mainz Mehr als vierzig Jahre hat sich der Sprachwissenschaftler und Mediävist Uwe Pörksen mit der Geschichte der deutschen Wissenschaftssprachen beschäftigt. Seine Arbeiten umfassen den Zeitraum vom 16. Jahrhundert bis zur Gegenwart und widmen sich einem thematisch breiten Spektrum, das in unterschiedlichen Gattungen – vom wissenschaftlichen Aufsatz und Überblicksartikel zum Vortrag und Essay – erschlossen wird. Der Band versammelt zwanzig in fünf Jahrzehnten verstreut publizierte Beiträge. Die Vielfalt von Wissenschaftssprachen, ihr Wandel und zugleich ihre beständige Aufgabe, Erkenntnisse über Wirklichkeit in Sprache zu fassen, wird an Autoren wie Paracelsus, Leibniz, Jochmann, Darwin, Linné oder Freud erörtert, aber auch an Problemen wie der Sprachenwahl (Latein, Deutsch, Englisch), der Rolle von Metaphern im wissenschaftlichen Denken oder dem Verhältnis von Sprache und Bild. Erstmals publiziert ist Pörksens Habilitationsschrift Erkenntnis und Sprache in Goethes Naturwissenschaft (1974), in der zahlreiche Aspekte seines Denkens und Forschens bereits enthalten sind. In seiner Zusammenstellung sucht der Sammelband Impulse zur weiteren Erforschung des aktuellen, über die Fachgrenzen hinaus relevanten Themas „Wissenschaftssprachen“ zu geben

    The Value of Hawaiʻi 3 : Hulihia, the Turning (2020)

    Keywords: Indigenous peoples ; Regional studies ; History of the Americas
    Abstract: "Hulihia" refers to massive upheavals that change the landscape, overturn the normal, reverse the flow, and sweep away the prevailing or assumed. We live in such days. Pandemics. Threats to ʻāina. Political dysfunction, cultural appropriation, and disrespect. But also powerful surges toward sustainability, autonomy, and sovereignty.The first two volumes of The Value of Hawaiʻi (Knowing the Past, Facing the Future and Ancestral Roots, Oceanic Visions) ignited public conversations, testimony, advocacy, and art for political and social change. These books argued for the value of connecting across our different expertise and experiences, to talk about who we are and where we are going.In a world in crisis, what does Hawaiʻi's experience tell us about how to build a society that sees opportunities in the turning and changing times? As islanders, we continue to grapple with experiences of racism, colonialism, environmental damage, and the costs of modernization, and bring to this our own striking creativity and histories for how to live peacefully and productively together. Steered by the four scholars who edited the previous volumes, The Value of Hawaiʻi 3: Hulihia, the Turning offers multigenerational visions of a Hawaiʻi not defined by the United States. Community leaders, cultural practitioners, artists, educators, and activists share exciting paths forward for the future of Hawaiʻi, on topics such as education, tourism and other economies, elder care, agriculture and food, energy and urban development, the environment, sports, arts and culture, technology, and community life.These visions ask us to recognize what we truly value about our home, and offer a wealth of starting points for critical and productive conversations together in this time of profound and permanent change

    Tanna Times : Islanders in the World (2020)

    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (200 p.)
    Keywords: Anthropology ; Australasian & Pacific history
    Abstract: "Anthropologists like to tell other people’s stories but local experts tell them even better. This book introduces the vibrant living culture and fascinating history of Tanna, an island in Vanuatu, Melanesia, through the stories of a dozen interconnected Tanna Islanders. Tracing the past 250 years of island experiences that cross the globe, each of these distinctly extraordinary lives tells larger human narratives of cultural continuity and change. In following Tanna’s times, we find that all of us, even those living on seemingly out-of-the-way Pacific Islands, are firmly linked into the world’s networks. Each chapter opens with a telling life story then contextualizes that biography with pertinent ethnographic explanation and archival research. Since 1774, Tanna Islanders have participated in events that have captured global anthropological and popular attention. These include receiving British explorer James Cook; a nineteenth-century voyage to London; troubled relations with early Christian missionaries; overseas emigration for plantation labor; the innovation of the John Frum Movement, a so-called Melanesian “cargo cult”; service in American military labor corps during the Pacific War; agitation in the 1970s for an independent Vanuatu; urban migration to seek work in Port Vila (Vanuatu’s capital); the international kava business; juggling arranged versus love marriages; and modern dealings with social media and swelling numbers of tourists. Yet, partly as a consequence of their experience abroad, Islanders fiercely protect their cultural identity and continue to maintain resilient bonds with their Tanna homes. Drawing on forty years of fieldwork in Vanuatu, author Lamont Lindstrom offers rich insights into the culture of Tanna. His close relationship with the island’s people is reflected in his choice to feature their voices; he celebrates and recounts their stories here in accessible, engaging prose. An ethnographic case study written for students of anthropology, the author has included a concise list of key sources and essential further readings suggestions at the end of each chapter. Tanna Times complements classroom and scholarly interests in kinship and marriage, economics, politics, religion, history, linguistics, gender and personhood, and social transformation in Melanesia and beyond."

    Abstract: In the Middle Ages, rolls were ubiquitous as a writing support. While scholars have long examined the texts and images on rolls, they have rarely taken the manuscripts themselves into account. This volume readdresses this imbalance by focusing on the materiality and various usages of rolls in late medieval England and France. Researchers from England, France, Germany and Singapore demonstrate in 11 contributions how this approach can increase our understanding of the rolls and their contents, as well as the contexts in which they were produced and used

    Abstract: In the artistic / vocational academic education field, a phrase like “scientific research” generates several controversies; however, they can be the roots of interdisciplinary approaches, through which to build bridges between concern and research. The conference “Art and Research - contemporary challenges” aims, also through the published volume, to disseminate the results of research undertaken within the project Art and research - contemporary challenges (CNFIS-FDI-2020-0537). Held between the Doctoral Schools and Research Centers of George Enescu National University of Arts, from Iasi, the conference addresses doctoral students and doctoral coordinators, as well as all university teachers or masters interested in the topic of art interdisciplinarity, use of creative methods and critical tools. Three directions are pursued, namely Theater, Music and Visual Arts, out of the desire to find both common points and to create the possibility for young researchers to meet, to know the directions and concerns in the field of arts research and to realize on future teams. Both the Conference and the resulting volume of articles are aimed at international openness, being published on international databases. Therefore, the impact would be important and not limited to the local perimeter

    Abstract: The enviBUILD conferences are organized annually by one of the Central European universities. They are building on the legacy of the Buildings and Environment Conferences held by the Faculty of Civil Engineering of the Slovak Technical University. Since 2012 they have been carried out under the “enviBUILD” brand name. An overview of all previous conferences can be found at “www.cab.sk/pastevents.html”. The enviBUILD conferences seek to map the current situation in the field of sustainable construction in the Central European region. The fourteenth sequel organized 2019 in Bratislava, as a one-day event, focused on building physics and applied technology in architecture, building construction and environmental engineering, with the following themes and topics: Indoor Environment and its Hygienic Aspects Sustainable Buildings and Environmental Assessment Building Materials and Components Energy Performance of Buildings Hygrothermal Performance of Buildings Responsive and Adaptive Building Envelopes Ventilation of Buildings Daylighting Building Acoustic Energy and Indoor Environmental Simulation Of the seventy abstracts submitted, some fifty valuable scientific articles were produced, most of which were presented directly at the conference. The contributions came from eight countries and more than a dozen academic institutions. All published papers were peer-reviewed by at least two independent professionals. In this way they provide a relatively comprehensive overview of the research and development in the field of sustainable construction, especially in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, enriched with inspirations from Austria, France, Hungary and Ukraine

    Abstract: This publication seeks to endeavour the relationship between material artefacts and reading practices in ancient and medieval cultures.While the acts of reception of written artefacts in former times are irretrievably lost, some of the involved artefacts are preserved and might comprise hints to the ancient reading practices. In form of case studies, the contributions to this volume examine various forms of written artefacts as to their implications on modes of reading. Analyzing different Qumran scrolls, codices, Tefillin, Mezuzot, magical texts, tablets, bricks, and statues as well as meta-textual and iconographic aspects, the articles inquire the possibilities of how to correlate material aspects to assumed modes of reception and practices of reading. The contributions stem from Egyptology, Papyrology, Qumran Studies, Biblical Studies, Jewish Studies, Ancient Christianity, and Islamic Studies.In total, this volume contributes to the research on practices of reception in times past and demonstrates the potential hidden in text-bearing artefacts

    Abstract: This book focuses on the multiple and diverse masculinities ‘at work’. Spanning both historical approaches to the rise of ‘profession’ as a marker of masculinity, and critical approaches to the current structures of management, employment and workplace hierarchy, the book questions what role masculinity plays in cultural understandings, affective experiences and mediatised representations of a professional ‘career’

    The Poetry and Prose of Wang Wie. Volume 1 (2020)

    Series Statement: Library of Chinese Humanities
    Abstract: Wang Wei has traditionally been considered one of the greatest of Tang dynasty poets, together with Li Bo and Du Fu. This is the first complete translation into English of all of his poems, and also the first substantial translation of a selection of his prose writings. For the first time, readers encountering his work in English translation will get a comprehensive understanding of Wang Wei‘s range as a poet and prose writer. In spite of the importance of Wang Wei's poetry in the history of Chinese literature, no one has attempted a complete translation of all of his surviving poems moreover, even though he was known for his skill in composing prose pieces in the recognized genres of his day (especially as a writer of commissioned compositions), very little of his prose has been translated. This translation will enable students with limited or no knowledge of Chinese to get a full sense of Wang Wei's compositional range. Moreover, since Wang Wei was known for being a devout Buddhist, having the complete poetry available in reliable translation as well as all of the prose that is connected to the Buddhist faith will be useful to students of Chinese religion

    Fakes and Forgeries of Written Artefacts from Ancient Mesopotamia to Modern China (2020)

    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (344 p.)
    Series Statement: Studies in Manuscript Cultures
    Abstract: Fakes and forgeries are objects of fascination. This volume contains a series of thirteen articles devoted to fakes and forgeries of written artefacts from the beginnings of writing in Mesopotamia to modern China. The studies emphasise the subtle distinctions conveyed by an established vocabulary relating to the reproduction of ancient artefacts and production of artefacts claiming to be ancient: from copies, replicas and imitations to fakes and forgeries. Fakes are often a response to a demand from the public or scholarly milieu, or even both. The motives behind their production may be economic, political, religious or personal – aspiring to fame or simply playing a joke. Fakes may be revealed by combining the study of their contents, codicological, epigraphic and palaeographic analyses, and scientific investigations. However, certain famous unsolved cases still continue to defy technology today, no matter how advanced it is. Nowadays, one can find fakes in museums and private collections alike they abound on the antique market, mixed with real artefacts that have often been looted. The scientific community’s attitude to such objects calls for ethical reflection

    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (267 p.)
    Abstract: The world we live in is unjust. Preventable deprivation and suffering shape the lives of many people, while others enjoy advantages and privileges aplenty. Cosmopolitan responsibility　addresses the moral responsibilities of privileged individuals to take action in the face of global structural injustice. Individuals are called upon to complement institutional efforts to respond to global challenges, such as climate change, unfair global trade, or world poverty.　 Committed to an ideal of relational equality among all human beings, the book discusses the impact of individual action, the challenge of special obligations, and the possibility of moral overdemandingness in order to lay the ground for an action-guiding ethos of cosmopolitan responsibility.　 This thought-provoking book will be of interest to any reflective reader concerned about justice and responsibilities in a globalised world.　 Jan-Christoph Heilinger is a moral and political philosopher. He teaches at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich, Germany, and at Ecole normale supérieure, Port-au-Prince, Haiti

    Series Statement: Library of Sinology
    Abstract: Since the beginning of the twentieth century, hundreds of thousands of documents of all sorts have been unearthed in China, opening whole new fields of study and transforming our modern understanding of ancient China. While these discoveries have necessarily taken place in China, Western scholars have also contributed to the study of these documents throughout this entire period. This book provides a comprehensive survey of the contributions of these Western scholars to the field of Chinese paleography, and especially to study of oracle-bone inscriptions, bronze and stone inscriptions, and manuscripts written on bamboo and silk. Each of these topics is provided with a comprehensive narrative history of studies by Western scholars, as well as an exhaustive bibliography and biographies of important scholars in the field. It is also supplied with a list of Chinese translations of these studies, as well as a complete index of authors and their works. Whether the reader is interested in the history of ancient China, ancient Chinese paleographic documents, or just in the history of the study of China as it has developed in the West, this book provides one of the most complete accounts available to date

    Aspectuality. An Onomasiological Model Applied to the Romance Languages (2020)

    ISBN: 9783110562088
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (281 p.)
    Abstract: This synchronic study presents a new onomasiological, frame-theoretical model for the description, classification and theoretical analysis of the cross-linguistic content category aspectuality. It deals specifically with those pieces of information, which, in their interplay, constitute the aspectual value of states of affairs. The focus is on Romance Languages, although the model can be applied just as well to other languages, in that it is underpinned by a principle grounded in a fundamental cognitive ability: the delimitation principle. Unlike traditional approaches, which generally have a semasiological orientation and strictly adhere to a semantic differentiation between grammatical aspect and lexical aspect (Aktionsart), this study makes no such differentiation and understands these as merely different formal realisations of one and the same content category: aspectuality

    Moral Foods : The Construction of Nutrition and Health in Modern Asia (2020)
    [Erscheinungsort nicht ermittelbar] : University of Hawai'i Press
    Details
    ISBN: 9780824887636
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource
    Keywords: Politics & government ; Diets & dieting ; Food & society
    Abstract: Moral Foods: The Construction of Nutrition and Health in Modern Asia investigates how foods came to be established as moral entities, how moral food regimes reveal emerging systems of knowledge and enforcement, and how these developments have contributed to new Asian nutritional knowledge regimes. The collection’s focus on cross-cultural and transhistorical comparisons across Asia brings into view a broad spectrum of modern Asia that extends from East Asia, Southeast Asia, to South Asia, as well as into global communities of Western knowledge, practice, and power outside Asia.The first section, “Good Foods,” focuses on how food norms and rules have been established in modern Asia. Ideas about good foods and good bodies shift at different moments, in some cases privileging local foods and knowledge systems, and in other cases privileging foreign foods and knowledge systems. The second section, “Bad Foods,” focuses on what makes foods bad and even dangerous. Bad foods are not simply unpleasant or undesirable for aesthetic or sensory reasons, but they can hinder the stability and development of persons and societies. Bad foods are symbolically polluting, as in the case of foreign foods that threaten not only traditional foods, but also the stability and strength of the nation and its people. The third section, “Moral Foods,” focuses on how themes of good versus bad are embedded in projects to make modern persons, subjects, and states, with specific attention to the ambiguities and malleability of foods and health. The malleability of moral foods provides unique opportunities for understanding Asian societies’ dynamic position within larger global flows, connections, and disconnections.Collectively, the chapters raise intriguing questions about how foods and the bodies that consume them have been valued politically, economically, culturally, and morally, and about how those values originated and evolved. Consumers in modern Asia are not simply eating to satisfy personal desires or physiological needs, but they are also conscripted into national and global statemaking projects through acts of ingestion. Eating, then, has become about fortifying both the person and the nation

    The Value of Hawaiʻi 3 : Hulihia, the Turning (2020)

    Keywords: Indigenous peoples ; Regional studies ; History of the Americas
    Abstract: “Hulihia” refers to massive upheavals that change the landscape, overturn the normal, reverse the flow, and sweep away the prevailing or assumed. We live in such days. Pandemics. Threats to ʻāina. Political dysfunction, cultural appropriation, and disrespect. But also powerful surges toward sustainability, autonomy, and sovereignty.The first two volumes of The Value of Hawaiʻi (Knowing the Past, Facing the Future and Ancestral Roots, Oceanic Visions) ignited public conversations, testimony, advocacy, and art for political and social change. These books argued for the value of connecting across our different expertise and experiences, to talk about who we are and where we are going.In a world in crisis, what does Hawaiʻi’s experience tell us about how to build a society that sees opportunities in the turning and changing times? As islanders, we continue to grapple with experiences of racism, colonialism, environmental damage, and the costs of modernization, and bring to this our own striking creativity and histories for how to live peacefully and productively together. Steered by the four scholars who edited the previous volumes, The Value of Hawaiʻi 3: Hulihia, the Turning offers multigenerational visions of a Hawaiʻi not defined by the United States. Community leaders, cultural practitioners, artists, educators, and activists share exciting paths forward for the future of Hawaiʻi, on topics such as education, tourism and other economies, elder care, agriculture and food, energy and urban development, the environment, sports, arts and culture, technology, and community life.These visions ask us to recognize what we truly value about our home, and offer a wealth of starting points for critical and productive conversations together in this time of profound and permanent change

The Japanese military forcefully mobilized about 80,000-200,000 Asian women to Japanese military brothels and forced them into sexual slavery during the Asian-Pacific War (1932-1945). The Japanese government has not made a sincere apology and compensation to the victims until today
