Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - There is no shortage of urgent, complex problems that mathematics education can and should engage with. Pandemics, forest fires, pollution, Black Lives Matter protests, and fake news all involve mathematics, are matters of life and death, have a clear political dimension, and are interdisciplinary in nature. They demand a critical approach. The authors in this volume showcase new insights, teaching ideas and new and unique ways of applying critical mathematics education, in areas as diverse as climate change, obesity, decolonisation and ethnomathematics. This book demonstrates that there is plenty to be done with critical mathematics education. Contributors are: Annica Andersson, Tonya Gau Bartell, Richard Barwell, Lisa Lunney Borden, Sunghwan Byun, Anna Chronaki, Brian Greer, Jennifer Hall, Victoria Hand, Kjellrun Hiis Hauge, Beth Herbel-Eisenmann, Rune Herheim, Courtney Koestler, Kate le Roux, Swapna Mukhopadhyay, Aldo Parra, Anita Rampal, Sheena Rughubar-Reddy, Toril Eskeland Rangnes, Ulrika Ryan, Lisa Steffensen, Paola Valero and David Wagner.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The main gaol of this book is to discuss the place and role of video games in contemporary societies and their impact on individual relationships. It analyses how the development of video games is a sign of and a factor in the democratization of modern societies. Judit Vari explores how video games contribute to the moral and political socialization of children and teenagers. The book is structured into two parts. The first explores the methodological, ethical and epistemological implications of Games Studies, and shows how the development of an independent field of research on video games can be analyzed as a sign of democratization. The second part focuses on youth identity experimentations and how video games can contribute to the democratization of social relations. She discusses play inequalities, but also how video games are reconfiguring family and peer relationships, thereby influencing the movement of democratization of societies. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Threading the Sovereign's Needle: A Philosophical Deconstruction of an Investor-State Tribunal's Authority to Award Interim Relief in Relation to Criminal Proceedings, Alexander G. Leventhal draws from a rich compendium of investor-State case law deciding on requests for provisional measures in relation to criminal measures. Leventhal shows that, rather than a diffuse set of contradictory decisions, these cases obey a coherent philosophy. He lays out in detail the criteria that these tribunals have considered - the basis of the tribunal's jurisdiction, the rights whose protection compels interim relief, tribunals' considerations of the criteria for interim relief, and the binding nature and enforceability of an order for interim relief. More than that, however, he explains the reasons behind the results, making this work a must-read for practitioners and academics alike.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Fragments of the Sixteenth-Century Nahuatl Census from the Jagiellonian Library: A Lost Manuscript provides a missing chunk of the sixteenth century Marquesado census--one of the earliest known texts in Nahuatl. In the critical edition of this manuscript, Julia Madajczak, Katarzyna Granicka, Szymon Gruda, Monika Jaglarz, and José Luis de Rojas reveal how it traveled across the Atlantic only to be lost during World War II and then rediscovered at the Jagiellonian Library, Poland. When connected to other surviving fragments of the Marquesado census, now held in Mexico and France, the Jagiellonian Library manuscript sheds new light on pre-contact and early colonial Nahua society. The authors use it to discuss the concept of calpolli, family life, and the production of administrative documentation in the early colonial Tepoztlan of today's Morelos.…

Gongga Laoren's life, actions and achievements show the fundamental elements behind the successful implementation of Tibetan Buddhism in a Han cultural environment and highlights a process that has created new expectations within communities, either Tibetan or Taiwanese, working in political, economic, religious and social contexts that have evolved from martial law in the 1960s to democratic rule today. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In The Life and Work of Ernesto de Martino: Italian Perspectives on Apocalypse and Rebirth in the Modern Study of Religion, Flavio A. Geisshuesler offers a comprehensive study of one of Italy's most colorful historians of religions. The book inserts de Martino's dramatic life trajectory within the intellectual climate and the socio-political context of his age in order to offer a fresh perspective on the evolution of the discipline of religious studies during the 20th century. Demonstrating that scholarship on religion was animated by moments of fear of the apocalypse, it brings de Martino's perspective into conversation with Mircea Eliade, Claude Lévi-Strauss, and Clifford Geertz in order to recover an Italian approach that promises to redeem religious studies as a relevant and revitalizing field of research in the contemporary climate of crisis.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In this biography of Johann Ernst Gerhard (1621-1668) Asaph Ben-Tov offers a study of a now forgotten yet unusually well documented seventeenth-century orientalist. Gerhard, the son of the famous Lutheran theologian Johann Gerhard, is not a towering figure but rather a fascinating representative of the academic culture of his day, especially of seventeenth-century oriental studies. His extant Nachlassallows a close scrutiny of the life and work of an early modern scholar, focussing on his training, travels, the ambitious Harmonia linguarum orientalium (1647) and other works, and the interests he fostered as a professor of history and theology in Jena. It aims to shed light on the broad and understudied field of oriental studies in seventeenth-century Germany.…

Carefully edited and extensively contextualised, they document Beach's unwavering, all-embracing support for Joyce's art by publishing his controversial Ulysses in Paris in 1922 and other efforts such as getting fragments of Work in Progress published. They also reveal her difficulties with his uncompromising and demanding personality, as it is vividly illustrated in the Frankfurter Zeitung affair. The edition moreover includes all extant letters to Paul Léon, her successor after their break-up following severe disagreements over the American edition of Ulysses. Joyceans and scholars of modernism will find this an indispensable resource for further research.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In International Law and Transition to Peace in Colombia, César Rojas-Orozco analyses the role of international law in transition from armed conflict to peace, by using the analytical framework of jus post bellum and Colombia as a case study. While contemporary attention to jus post bellum has focused on its theoretical development and regarding international warfare, this book is the first work to comprehensively assess the concept in practice and in the context of a non-international armed conflict. Discussing the creative formulas adopted in Colombia to conciliate international legal requirements and the practical needs of peace, the book offers concrete elements to understand the concept of jus post bellum as a framework to guide other transitions around the world.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A sense of loss is a driving force in most nationalist movements: territorial loss, the loss of traditions, language, national virtues or of a Golden Age. But which emotions charged the construction of loss and how did they change over time To what objects and bodies did emotions stick How was the production of loss gendered Which figures of loss predated nationalist ideology and enabled loss within nationalist discourse 13 scholars from different backgrounds answer these questions by exploring nationalist discourses during the long nineteenth century in the Baltic Sea region through political writings, lectures, novels, letters, paintings, and diaries.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Recent research has established the continued importance of engagement with the classical tradition to the formation of scholarly, philosophical, theological, and scientific knowledge well into the eighteenth century. The Worlds of Knowledge and the Classical Tradition in the Early Modern Age is the first attempt to adopt a comparative approach to this phenomenon. An international team of scholars explores the differences and similarities - across time and place - in how the study and use of ancient texts and ideas shaped a wide range of fields: nascent classics, sexuality, chronology, metrology, the study of the soul, medicine, the history of Judaeo-Christian interaction, and biblical criticism. By adopting a comparative approach, this volume brings out some of the most important factors in explaining the contours of early modern intellectual life. Contributors: Karen Hollewand, Dmitri Levitin, Jan Machielsen, Ian Maclean, C. Philipp E. Nothaft, Cesare Pastorino, Michelle Pfeffer, Jetze Touber, Timothy Twining, and Floris Verhaart.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Working with a data set accounting for 13,000 auction sales results, Anne-Sophie V. Radermecker explores what contemporary buyers value when purchasing paintings of unknown or uncertain authorship, and which variables influence price formation mechanisms in this market segment. The principle finding of this book is not only that historical names matter in the art market, but so do all other alternative identification strategies that art market players use to label anonymous paintings. Indirect names, provisional names, and spatiotemporal designations function as substitutes for real names that simulate identities, create ex-post stories around the artworks offered for sale, and, consequently, reduce information asymmetry about an artist's identity, with, at time, quite unexpected effects on price.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book analyzes the evolving interaction between court and media from an understudied perspective. Eight case studies focus on different European Empress consorts and Queen regnants from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries, using a comparative, cross-media, and cross-period approach. The volume addresses a multitude of questions, ranging from how dynastic women achieved public prominence through their portraits; how their faces and bodies were moulded and rearticulated to fit varying expectations in the courtly public sphere; and the degree to which they, as female actors, engaged with or had agency within the processes of production and reception. In particular, two types of female rulership and their relationship to diverse media are contrasted, and lesser-known and under-researched dynastic women are spotlighted.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This volume offers the first comprehensive account of the monetary logic that guided the payment of wergild and blood money in early medieval conflict resolution. In the early middle ages, wergild played multiple roles: it was used to measure a person's status, to prevent and end conflicts, and to negotiate between an individual and the agents of statehood. This collection of interlocking essays by historians, philologists and jurists represents a major contribution to the study of law and society in Western Europe during the early Middle Ages. Contributors are Lukas Bothe, Warren Brown, Stefan Esders, Wolfgang Haubrichs, Paul Hyams, Tom Lambert, Ralph W. Mathisen, Rob Meens, Han Nijdam, Lisi Oliver, Harald Siems, Karl Ubl, and Helle Vogt.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This study examines the motivations and doctrinal coherence of the Commentary on the Elements of Theology of Proclus written by Berthold of Moosburg, O.P. (+ c. 1361/1363). It provides an overview of Berthold's biography and intellectual contexts, his manuscript remains, and a partial edition of his annotations on Macrobius and Proclus. Through a close analysis of the three prefaces to the Commentary, giving special attention to Berthold's sources, it traces the Dominican's elaboration of Platonism as a soteriological science. The content of this science is then presented in a systematic reconstruction of Berthold's cosmology and anthropology. The volume includes an English translation of the three fundamental prefaces of the Commentary. The publication of this volume has received the generous support of the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme through the ERC Consolidator Grant NeoplAT: A Comparative Analysis of the Middle East, Byzantium and the Latin West (9th-16th Centuries), grant agreement No 771640 (neoplat.eu). 'This is, indeed, a precious insight into the spirit of Berthold's philosophical thinking. Overall, the monograph's ambition seems to be both to represent a starting point for new readers interested in Berthold, and to stress the philosophical value of the Commentary: both goals are most certainly reached.' -Giuseppe Thomas Vitale, Thomas-Institut der Universität zu Köln, Recherches de Théologie et Philosophie médiévales 89.2.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Urban Rituals in Sacred Landscapes in Hellenistic Asia Minor, Christina G. Williamson examines the phenomenon of monumental sanctuaries in the countryside of Asia Minor that accompanied the second rise of the Greek city-state in the Hellenistic period. Moving beyond monolithic categories, Williamson provides a transdisciplinary frame of analysis that takes into account the complex local histories, landscapes, material culture, and social and political dynamics of such shrines in their transition towards becoming prestigious civic sanctuaries. This frame of analysis is applied to four case studies: the sanctuaries of Zeus Labraundos, Sinuri, Hekate at Lagina, and Zeus Panamaros. All in Karia, these well-documented shrines offer valuable insights for understanding religious strategies adopted by emerging cities as they sought to establish their position in the expanding world.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Die Akteur-Netzwerk-Theorie (ANT) zählt zu den meistdiskutierten Theorie- und Methodenansätzen der Gegenwart. In historischen Fallstudien vom Mittelalter bis zum 20. Jahrhundert werden ihre Potentiale für die Geschichtswissenschaft ausgeleuchtet.Das über den Menschen hinaus erweiterte Akteurskonzept der ANT gilt vielen als epistemologische Provokation. Die Ansätze der ANT gehen jedoch weit darüber hinaus und lassen sich weder auf Geschichten vermeintlich zum Leben erweckter Objekte noch auf das Werk Bruno Latours reduzieren. Trotz der Analyse historischer Gegenstände durch einige Akteur-Netzwerk-Theoretiker bleibt die Historizität jedoch eine Art blinder Fleck des Ansatzes. Die Aufsätze des Bandes nehmen dies zum Anlass, um Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der ANT für die historiographische Praxis aufzuzeigen.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Im Zeitraum 2017 bis 2021 wurde dem hundertjährigen Bestehen des Frauenwahlrechts in mehr oder weniger breit gefächerter Form gedacht. Die wechselvolle Geschichte dieses Erinnerns sowohl seitens Aktivist\*innen der Frauenbewegungen und Historiker\*innen als auch seitens staatlicher Institutionen oder politischer Parteien wird hier am Beispiel ausgewählter europäischer Länder veranschaulicht. Die Beiträge zeigen, wie sehr fehlende Quellen, aber auch Stereotypen und Vorurteile Herausforderungen für ebendieses Erinnern bedeuteten. Zudem reflektieren sie das Spannungsverhältnis zwischen den unterschiedlichen Interessen der am Gedenken Mitwirkenden. Das Jubiläum hat nicht nur den Grundstein für eine Integration der Einführung des Frauenwahlrechts in die nationale politische Geschichte gelegt, sondern auch dazu beigetragen, das gesamte Thema aus neuen Perspektiven zu betrachten. Aus dem Inhalt: Die Erinnerung an das Frauenwahlrecht in Großbritannien und Irland / 100 Jahre Frauenwahlrechtsjubiläum in Deutschland / An Inside Reflection on the Dutch Centenary of Universal (Women's) Suffrage / Memory Work, Memory Politics and the Centennial of Women's Suffrage in Sweden / Frauenwahlrechtsjubiläen in zwei Nachfolgestaaten der Habsburgermonarchie / Ellen Carol DuBois interviewed by Mineke Bosch - Woman Suffrage in Times of Distress / Leben im Versteck. Annäherung an die Geschichte von Kindern ausländischer Arbeiter\*innen in der Schweiz der Hochkonjunktur / Die antifeministischen Geschlechterpolitiken der FPÖ Commemorations are currently remembering the centennial of women's suffrage in several European countries and the United States. While, on the surface, early historiography of the history of women's suffrage has opened the way for the discipline of women's and gender history since the 1970s, several concerns, such as the collection and preservation of suffrage heritage, stereotypes and prejudices, and political contextualization, have challenged ways and possibilities both to write this history and to remember women's equal inclusion in political participation. This issue seeks to explore the politics of suffrage memory, addressing both the historiography of women's suffrage and its impact on the commemoration of women's enfranchisement, especially also in relation to national celebrations of universal suffrage.…
