Dear Friends and Colleagues, We are delighted to share our new Rights Catalogue Spring 2018 with you.

In a most fascinating and intriguing study, Simonetta Sanna analyzes Hanna, the female protagonist in Bernhard Schlink’s international bestseller The Reader, and other Nazi Women Perpetrators in German Literature (p. 3). Besides Schlink’s famous novel, the author examines works by Stephan Hermlin, Hans Lebert, Lukas Hartmann and Helga Schneider and encourages us to see not only the impossibility of forgiveness, but also the interweavement between good and evil, victim and perpetrator. Simonetta Sanna is a Professor for German Literature at the University of Sassari in Sardinia, Italy. She has published numerous monographs, e.g. on Lessing, Thomas Mann and Alfred Döblin.

Franziska Schößler’s study Femina Oeconomica: Work, Consumption and Sex in Literature (p. 5) closes a gap in Cultural Gender Studies. Analyzing select European and American literary works from the age of Goethe until today, Professor Schößler examines the discursive link between gender and the ability to work. She also explains why «women’s work» is often considered to be more fragile and unreliable, why it is less valued and remunerated, and often informal and invisible. Franziska Schößler is a Professor of Modern German Literature at the University of Trier, Germany. She has published almost a dozen monographs, including introductory textbooks on Cultural and Literary Studies, Gender Studies and Drama.

In his compelling publication Napoleon’s Other War (p. 27), Michael Broers explores the «dirty wars» of ambushes, night raids and plunder fought by bandits and rebels during the Napoleonic Wars behind the battle lines, which spread across the whole western world from Constantinople to Chile. Everywhere, they threw up unlikely characters – ordinary men who emerged as leaders, bandits who became presidents, priests who became warriors, lawyers who became murdering criminals. In studying these fortunes, Professor Broers provides an insight into a lost world of peasant life, a world Napoleon did so much to sweep away. Michael Broers is a Professor of Western European History at the University of Oxford and the author of nine books, including Napoleon: Soldier of Destiny (Faber & Faber).

The Catholic Revival in Modern European Literature (1890–1945) Translated by Dustin Langan From 1890 to 1945, Europe was shaken by political, social, and cultural revolutions brought about by the crisis of modernity. Marx, Nietzsche, and Freud stoked the yearnings of a convulsed era, devastated by the First World War. It was a time when all kinds of alternative and radical models of modernity were erected in pursuit of a new world: from the exasperation of communist and fascist totalitarianism to the frenzy of the artistic avant-gardes and biopolitics. Hungry for transcendence and tormented by hope, this passionate age also gave rise in Europe to a Catholic revival in literature. Writers such as G. K. Chesterton, Evelyn Waugh, and Graham Greene in England; Charles Péguy, Paul Claudel, and Georges Bernanos in France; and Ramiro de Maeztu and José Bergamín in Spain found that Catholicism was the key to coping with the enigmas and paradoxes of modern man. At the same time, by injecting the political and artistic principles of modernity into the Christian tradition, they transformed a reactionary Catholicism into the paradigm of ultramodernity.

This book explores the intellectual history of a European cultural phenomenon that has thus far been left out of most works of criticism, despite its magnitude. Moreover, it does so through vibrant prose that makes this work of research read like a novel.

The Epistolary Muse Women of Letters in England and France, 1652–1802 Epistolary fiction was in full flower during the period from 1652 to 1802, featuring the masterworks of Guilleragues, Richardson, Rousseau and Laclos. This study traces the development of the art of letter-writing and familiar correspondence and its adaptation by women writers into a remarkable range of literary genres, both fictional and non-fictional. In addition to the better known categories of the monodic love-letter sequence and the polyphonic epistolary novel, these sub-genres include letter miscellanies, essays, travelogues, educational novels and verse epistles. To all these, women writers made a valuable, and sometimes totally original, contribution. Indeed, it could be said that it was essentially through letter-writing that women achieved literary recognition. This volume examines each of these epistolary categories in turn, revealing how women writers from either country excelled in a particular genre: the French, for example, in the epistolary monody and fictional foreign correspondence, the English in the miscellany and verse epistle, and both in the polyphonic letter-novel. Finally, the study notes how, despite the rapid decline of epistolary fiction in the nineteenth century, a select number of letter-novels by American, English and French women writers still continue to be published.

Nazi Women Perpetrators in German Literature The Challenge of Evil

This study, with the thematization of the National Socialist extermination machine and women who played an active role in it, links twin stumbling blocks. The author examines the works of Stephan Hermlin, Hans Lebert, Bernhard Schlink, Lukas Hartmann and Helga Schneider. These hold guilty women to account retrospectively, but nevertheless credit them with a non-exclusive sense of justice. From the narrative point of view, it is precisely the impossibility of forgiveness that arouses interest in the interconnections between good and evil, victim and perpetrator. This demands comprehensive cognitive faculties in the reader too. In conclusion, the book summarizes the contribution of the novel to reappraisal of the past. The author pursues the question of how far negative experiences contribute to human self-knowledge and hence also to positive relationships with other people.

CONTENTS: Bernhard Schlink, «Der Vorleser» (The Reader): the reappraisal of guilt • Lukas Hartmann, «Die Frau im Pelz» (The Woman in Fur): in «Niemandsland des Zweifels» (The No-Man’s-Land of Doubt) • Stephan Hermlin, «Die Kommandeuse» (The Commanderess): into the most causal sources of violence • Helga Schneider, «Lass mich gehen» (Let Me Go): individual fate and collective dimension • Hans Lebert, «Der Feuerkreis» (The Circle of Fire): the «Polemos» principle • Three theses on the novel and violence.

Anne-Marie Storrs

Loving’s the Strange Thing Jungian Individuation in the Fairy Tales of Carmen Martín Gaite This groundbreaking volume argues that Carmen Martín Gaite and Carl Jung form an ideal combination. All the main features of the Jungian individuation process are present in the Spanish writer’s fairy tales: dreams, shadow figures, wise men and women, the Self, anima and animus. Martín Gaite has been described by the critic Salustiano Martín as trying to offer human beings a different way. In this accessible new study, Anne-Marie Storrs claims that this way is found through the process of individuation – the psychological development of a unique individual – and that aspects of the process are imaginatively depicted in the three shorter fairy tales, El castillo de las tres murallas, El pastel del diablo and Caperucita en Manhattan, and in the novel so closely linked with Hans Christian Andersen’s tale, La reina de las nieves. Drawing on the work of Jungian writers to clarify and illuminate its argument, this book takes an entirely new perspective on Martín Gaite’s work and, in doing so, challenges the prejudice and suspicion that too many in the humanities and beyond continue to experience when they come face to face with Jung.

Monograph, English

Sicilian writer Goliarda Sapienza (1924–1996) is increasingly regarded as a central figure in modern Italian literature, especially with the international success of her masterpiece L’arte della gioia [The Art of Joy]. This book offers an in-depth analysis of Sapienza’s major works, identifying their main themes and central poetics, and establishing her originality and significance within the context of twentieth-century Italian literature. The study follows Sapienza’s autofictional journey from the painful reconstruction of the self in Lettera aperta [Open Letter] and Il filo di mezzogiorno [Midday Thread], to Modesta’s rebellious adventure in L’arte della gioia, to the playful portrayal of childhood in Io, Jean Gabin [I, Jean Gabin] and, finally, to the representation of prison life and queer desire in L’università di Rebibbia [Rebibbia University] and Le certezze del dubbio [The Certainties of Doubt].

Themes of freedom, the body, nonconformist gender identities and sexuality, autobiography and political commitment are explored in connection to a variety of philosophical discourses, including Marxism, feminism, psychoanalysis and queer theory. From a position of marginality and eccentricity, Sapienza gives voice to a radical aspiration to achieve freedom and social transformation, in which writing and literary communication are conferred a fundamental role. This book was the winner of the 2015 Peter Lang Young Scholars Competition in Women’s Studies.

ALBERICA BAZZONI is British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Warwick.

She completed her PhD in Italian Literature at the University of Oxford. Her main areas of research are modern Italian literature, literary theory and gender and sexuality studies.

Femina Oeconomica: Work, Consumption and Sex in Literature From Goethe to Händler

This study fi lls a lacuna in Gender Studies in the science of culture: starting from Goethe and continuing up to the present, exemplary readings examine what propositions in literary texts relate to the discursive relationship of sex and work capacity. The author enquires what gender stereotypes correspond to (literary) occupational images, what models of emotional, aesthetic and precarious work the texts develop and why they conceive of consumption as non-work. The literature of Europe and the United States of America analysed here gives some indication of why «women’s work» is in general seen as less stable and reliable, why it is lower paid, remains unformulated and invisible, and above all why it is obstinately paired with sexuality or the typology of sexual character.

CONTENTS: Literature and the sociology of work • Entrepreneurship, «inner» calling and social work in Goethe and the Romantics • Womanhood as a creative resource • «Sex work» and the resource of beauty in early socialism and in socialist autobiography • The courtesan in Daniel Defoe, Honoré de Balzac and Émile Zola • Consumption and gender stereotypes in Gustave Flaubert, Erich Köhrer and Theodore Dreiser • The governess as hetaera in Arthur Schnitzler • Emotional and aesthetic work of the secretary in the period between the wars • Housework and depression in Gisela Elsner • Women entrepreneurs and creation myths in Ernst-Wilhelm Händler.

Vladimir Nabokov and the Ideological Aesthetic A Study of his Novels and Plays, 1926–1939 This book argues that ideology is a prism through which the work of Vladimir Nabokov needs to be considered. It is thus the first attempt to foreground questions of ideology and politics within a field that has historically been resistant to such readings. The perception of Nabokov as an apolitical writer is one which the author encouraged throughout the latter part of his career in his non-fictional writings and in the small number of well-rehearsed interviews that he gave. When questions of ideology and politics have arisen in scholarship, they have only been featured in passing or have merely re-confirmed the author’s self-designation as an «old-fashioned liberal». When we consider that Nabokov lived through some of the most traumatic historical ruptures of the past century then this lack of reference to ideology in the critical literature appears quite revealing. Through the analysis of works which have previously received little attention as well as new perspectives on better known works, this book demonstrates how ideology and politics were ever-present and had an indelible effect on Nabokov’s literary aesthetics.

Thomas Grob

Russian Post-Romanticism Baron Brambeus and the Divisions of Romantic Authorship So much has been written about European romanticism, but it is so rarely considered that its «dwindling» and the breakaway around 1830 form a European paradigm. This volume seeks a new understanding of Russian literature in the 1830s in its own temporal character and literary history concepts for the radical upheavals. Such an understanding has to link the contemporary scorn of its supposed cultural demise with its objective productivity and originality. The author analyses the revolutions in the literary scene and in the literary understanding through the Orientalist, publicist and author Osip Senkovskij as the most defining figure of the time as well as its greatest bogeyman.

THOMAS GROB is Professor of Slavic and General Literature at the University of Basel. His work focuses, among other fields, on Slavic romanticism, avant-garde and contemporary literature and fantasy fiction. He is the publisher of a German edition of the work of Iwan Bunin.

Mo Yan Thought Six Critiques of Hallucinatory Realism This book analyzes Mo Yan’s writings as well as other scholarly interpretations of his writings. When Mo Yan from China was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, the term «hallucinatory realism» was invented to describe his storytelling as a «merging» of folk tales, history, and the contemporary. The author stakes out a Marxist approach to theorizing the class ideology that underwrites what Mo Yan says he «knows» of the «nebulous terrain» where one supposedly experiences moments of «transcending» or going «beyond» class and politics in literary sensibility.

A Study of Hypertexts of Kuunmong 九雲夢, Focusing on Kuullu 九雲夢 / Kuun’gi 九雲夢 Nine Clouds in Motion This case study deals with late Chosŏn dynasty works of narrative fiction modelled after Kuunmong (A Dream of Nine Clouds) by Kim Manjung (1637–1692). The focus lies on a novel extant in two manuscripts: Sinjŭng Kuullu (Revised augmented edition of the Nine Cloud Tower) and Sinjŭng chaeja Kuun’gi (Revised augmented caizi edition of the Story of Nine Clouds), short Kuullu/Kuun’gi. While this study specifically discusses late premodern hypertexts of Kuunmong, it is also concerned with a set of broader questions regarding the diff usion, circulation, reception, and creative transformation of literary products of different languages on the eve of modernity in Sino-centric East Asia.

From Tahrir Square to Ferguson Social Networks as Facilitators of Social Movements The last several years have seen mass uprisings and dynamic social movements across the globe, from the onset of the Arab Spring in 2011, to the Black Lives Matter movement following Michael Brown’s death in Ferguson, Missouri in 2014. There is no doubt that social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter accelerated and facilitated these uprisings, providing a way for people to organize and express themselves despite government repression. From Tahrir Square to Ferguson: Social Networks as Facilitators of Social Movements attempts to answer the question of whether these movements could have succeeded before the advent of the Internet age. From political protest to regime change, social movements have become increasingly digital. Taking on the current political climate from an international perspective, From Tahrir Square to Ferguson: Social Networks as Facilitators of Social Movements attempts to address the issues of a growing social media audience facing a wide variety of social and political issues.

Media and Transnational Climate Justice captures the intriguing nexus of globalization, crisis, justice, activism and news communication, at a time when radical measures are increasingly demanded to address one of the most pressing global issues: climate change.

Anna Roosvall and Matthew Tegelberg take a unique approach to climate justice by focusing on transnational rather than international aspects, thereby contributing to the development of theories of justice for a global age, as well as in relation to media studies. The book specifically explores the roles, situations and activism of indigenous peoples who do not have full representation at UN climate summits despite being among those most exposed to injustices pertaining to climate change, as well as to injustices relating to politics and media coverage. This book thus scrutinizes political and ideological dimensions of the global phenomenon of climate change through interviews and observations with indigenous activists at UN climate summits, in combination with extensive empirical research conducted on legacy and social media coverage of climate change and indigenous peoples. The authors conclude by discussing transnational solidarity and suggest a solidarian mode of communication as a response to both the global crisis of climate change and the broader issues of injustice faced by indigenous peoples regarding redistribution, recognition and political representation.

ANNA ROOSVALL received her PhD at Stockholm University, where she is Professor in the Department of Media Studies. In 2016 she was Visiting Fellow at LSE, London (Department of Media and Communications). Her publications include Communicating the Nation (2010, Inka Salovaara-Moring, co-editor).

The Mourning News Reporting Violent Death in a Global Age

A conventional wisdom in media studies is that «when it bleeds it leads». The media love violence and from the newsroom perspective, negative news is good news. Violent death often makes it to the headlines, and mass violent death events often become media events that receive immediate continuous attention worldwide. However, reporting violent death is not only about sending information, but also about the maintenance of society. News about violent death functions as media rituals which elicit grief and inform a sense of care and belonging. Accordingly, this book takes a broader sociological and anthropological approach to considering the role of death and the media in organising social life in a global age. Based on literature on solidarity and social cohesion, death rituals, media rituals, and journalism studies, this book examines whether and how the performance of the media at the occurrence of mass violent death events informs solidarity and interconnectedness on a cosmopolitan level. The book develops the analytics of grievability as an analytical framework that unpacks the ways in which news about death constructs grievable death and articulates relational ties between spectators and sufferers. The book employs the analytics of grievability in a comparative manner and analyses the coverage of three different case studies (terror attack, war and natural disaster) by two transnational news networks (BBC World News and Al-Jazeera English). This comparative analysis showcases the centrality of news media in selectively cultivating a sense of cosmopolitan solidarity in a global age.

Spiritual News Reporting Religion Around the World The media’s coverage of religion is an important question for academic researchers, given the central role which news media play in ensuring that people are up-to-date with religion news developments. Not only is there a lack of treatment of the subject in other countries, but there is also the absence of comparative study on news and religion. A key question is how the media, the political system, the religions themselves, the culture, and the economy influence how religion is reported in different countries. Spiritual News: Reporting Religion Around the World is intended to fill this gap.

What Is Sustainable Journalism?

Integrating the Environmental, Social, and Economic Challenges of Journalism This edited volume, which elaborates on the idea and concept of sustainable journalism, is the result of a perceived lack of integral research approaches to journalism and sustainable development. Thirty years ago, in 1987, the Brundtland Report pointed out economic growth, social equality and environmental protection as the three main pillars of a sustainable development. These pillars are intertwined, interdependent, and need to be reconciled. However, usually, scholars interested in the business crisis of the media industry tend to leave the social and environmental dimensions of journalism aside, and vice versa.

What Is Sustainable Journalism? is the first book that discusses and examines the economic, social and environmental challenges of professional journalism simultaneously. This unique book and fresh contribution to the discussion of the future of journalism assembles international expertise in all three fields, arguing for the necessity of integral research perspectives and for sustainable journalism as the key to long-term survival of professional journalism. The book is relevant for scholars and master’s students in media economy, media and communication, and environmental communication.

This guide focuses on the dissertation work as a step-by-step process and details the structure and the content of dissertation chapters. Unique to this edition is its conception of the dissertation in optimistic, realistic, and symbolic terms, which altogether provide theoretical basis and practical advice to students who are beginning their dissertation process. The guide features the personal accounts of doctoral students who have gone through the experience, which makes this edition stand out among other similar books on the market.

Dissertation is the work of a laborer, a craftsman, and an artist. Long hours of hard labor with our hands and head go into developing ideas, planning, and implementing research projects such as dissertations. But what ultimately drives our academic pursuits and, therefore makes them successful and enjoyable is inspiration that sets our hearts on fire and makes it impossible not to venture on the journey. The uncharted territories of the dissertation process – life events and happenings – make the path toward the highest academic degree attainment both exciting and challenging. Just like life itself with its unplanned and unpredictable twists and turns, the dissertation journey requires strength of character and an unwavering faith in one’s self and in the ultimate value of the pursuit of knowledge. So, why merely survive? Let’s enjoy the dissertation journey!

The guide is intended primarily for doctoral students pursuing dissertations in social sciences, as well as for faculty who teach doctoral-level research courses and seminars and supervise doctoral dissertations.

Researching the Writing Center is the first book-length treatment of the research base for academic writing tutoring. The book reviews the current state of writing center scholarship, arguing that although practitioner-researchers continue to value anecdotal and experiential evidence, they must also appreciate empirical evidence as mediating theory and practice. Readers of this revised edition will discover an evidence-based orientation to research and be able to evaluate the current scholarship on recommended writing center practice. Chapters examine the research base for current theory and practice involving the contexts of tutoring, tutoring activities, and the tutoring of specific populations. Readers will investigate the sample research question «What is a ‘successful’ writing consultation?» Researching the Writing Center concludes with an agenda for future questions about writing center practice that can be researched empirically. This revised edition of the text is intended for writing center professionals, researchers, graduate students in English, composition studies, and education, and peer tutors in training. It is also suitable for courses in writing center theory and practice, learning center theory and practice, composition studies, education, and learning assistance.

Empowerment An Educational Book

How does it come about that human beings – as regards highly developed productive agents – once again permit the denial of good sense and freedom?

What mentalities do they need to avoid shrinking from demands for freedom, reject dominance myths and involve themselves effectively in their own affairs? The author analyses the antics of the zeitgeist and advanced practices of bio-political interference with the body and mind. She develops 6 basic dimensions of education – independent thinking, self-will, experience of the dynamics of social systems, autonomous morality, eloquence, humour. Virtues rich in prerequisites, but which nevertheless themselves constantly generate the social climate and lifestyles in which they thrive best. Leading educational agencies are criticised, and possible educational approaches indicated. Gender-based viewpoints point to patriarchal entanglement in an essayistic existence.

CONTENTS: A world of potential and its renewed restriction • qualification for the demands for freedom • independent thinking, reflection • will • action • stories and numbers • self-will • alienation • bio-power • constitution • phantasms of domination • free will • dynamics of social systems • power • dominance • resistance • liberation • autonomous morality • moral development • moral methods • eloquence • humour • educational approaches • omnipotence • learning • educational institutions • living environments.

Vygotsky and Creativity A Cultural-historical Approach to Play, Meaning Making, and the Arts Second Edition

The second edition of Vygotsky and Creativity: A Cultural-historical Approach to Play, Meaning Making, and the Arts presents an enriched Vygotskian perspective on children’s and adults’ symbolic engagement with imagination, artistic expression, and multi-modal forms of expression. Artists, psychologists, and educators present their research and practice in different learning environments and analyze their findings with a reliance on cultural historical activity theory. The connections between creative expression, learning, teaching, and development are situated in a theoretical framework that emphasizes the social origins of individual development and the arts. The authors share a view of learning as an imaginative process rooted in our common need to communicate and transform individual experience through the cultural lifelines of the arts. Vygotsky and Creativity, Second Edition includes the additional work of internationally known Vygotskian scholars whose contributions enhance theoretical, expressive, and pedagogical views on creativity, play, and the social construction of meaning making.

Edited collection, English

Bruno Munari was one of the most important and eclectic twentieth-century European artists. Dubbed the «Leonardo and Peter Pan» of contemporary art, he pioneered what would later be labelled kinetic art, playing a key role in the constitution and definition of the aesthetic programmes of groups such as Movimento Arte Concreta and Programmed Art. He became an internationally recognized name in the field of industrial design, winning the prestigious «Compasso d’Oro» prize four times, while also being a prominent figure in Italian graphic design, working for magazines such as Tempo and Domus, as well as renowned publishing companies such as Einaudi and Bompiani. He left an indelible mark as an art pedagogue and popularizer with his famous 1970s artistic laboratories for children and was the author of numerous books, ranging from essays on art and design to experimental books. Capturing a resurgent interest in Munari at the international level, the exceptional array of critical voices in this volume constitutes an academic study of Munari of a depth and range that is unprecedented in any language, offering a unique analysis of Munari’s seven-decade-long career. Through original archival research, and illuminating and generative comparisons with other artists and movements both within and outside Italy, the essays gathered here offer novel readings of more familiar aspects of Munari’s career while also addressing those aspects that have received scant or no attention to date.

Nadia Radwan

The Modernists of Egypt A Transnational Renaissance of Fine Art and the Applied Arts In this book, Nadia Radwan explores a key moment of the development of modern Egyptian art, when the foundations of a new artistic practice are defined in the early 20th century. Based on field work and unexplored archival material, this work focuses on a generation of painters and sculptors commonly referred to as the pioneers (al-ruwwad). Trained in institutions, such as the School of Fine Arts in Cairo, their production is inscribed in a project of artistic renaissance and reflects multiple transcultural interactions between Egypt and Europe. This publication thus re-evaluates these artists that opened the path to Egyptian modernism and sheds light their yet understudied production. While art history is now approached in the perspective of circulations, exchange and networks, this book offers a background to a better comprehend the dynamics and stakes of contemporary art in the Middle East and intends to contribute to the cartographic constellation of a world art history.

Spirituality and Music Education Perspectives from Three Continents This book is the product of a long journey by a company of academics and practitioners sharing a common interest, titled the Spirituality and Music Education Group (SAME). It started at the International Society for Music Education Conference in Bologna in 2008, with its first gathering in Birmingham in 2010. This book is a product of the various meetings of this group. Since the group formed, the notion of spirituality has been struggling to find a way through the dominant ideology of secularisation in the West to a place in a post-secularising world. This book concentrates on examining this issue from the position of music educators on three continents. This process can be defined as both separate from as well as part of the dominant Christian and humanist traditions, whatever is appropriate in a particular culture. The book represents a fascinating array of lenses through which to examine the many and complex strands within the concept of spirituality.

Aristoxenos and Pythagoras A Basic Foray into the History of Musical Scales and Intervals Reflections upon music have been bound up with mathematics since ancient times. In this interdisciplinary foray into the common history of the two disciplines, this book does not restrict itself to Pythagoras and the Platonic tradition, but also integrates Aristoxenos and the Aristotelian tradition into its investigations on equal terms. This foray, which also aims to convey a historical overview, begins in antiquity and ends in the baroque period with Werckmeister’s reflections on tuning and temperament. Several important historical works on musical theory are subjected here to critical examination, notably with respect to computation. In the process, not only musical theory but at times the history of mathematics too appear in an unaccustomed light.

WALTER BÜHLER studied mathematics and physics in Tübingen and has recently been teaching computer studies in secondary schools in Berlin. In parallel and after work, he has tackled musical theory in the work of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz and other scientists.

Gender and Violence in Spanish Culture From Vulnerability to Accountability For the true exercise of citizenship to occur, gender violence must be eradicated, as it is not an interpersonal problem, but an attack on the very concept of democracy. Despite increasing social awareness and legal measures taken to fight gender violence, it is still prevalent worldwide. Even in a country such as Spain, praised in the UN Handbook for Legislation on Violence Against Women (2010) for its advanced approach on gender violence, the legal framework has proved insufficient and deeper sociocultural changes are needed.

This book presents, in this respect, groundbreaking investigations in the realm of politics, activism, and cultural production that offer both a complex picture of the agents involved in its transformation and a nuanced panorama of initiatives that subvert the normative framework of recognition of victims of gender violence. As a result, the book chapters articulate a construction of the victim as a subject that reflects and acts upon his/her experience and vulnerability, and also adopt perspectives that frame accountability within the representational tradition, the community, and the state.

Sylvain Guyot

Nature, the «Other Frontier» Ecological Frontiers in the South (South Africa, Argentina, Chile) The purpose of this work is to provide a territorial interpretation of the power and domination relationships of societies with respect to nature. Sylvain Guyot presents an in depth formulation of the concept of the ecological frontier, designating the territorial (re)conquests made in the name of nature. Contemporary globalization of issues relating to ecology and the protection of nature yields a set of dynamics capable of validating the capacity for planetary clarification of the ecological fronts (environmental NGOs, IGOs, private protection of nature, ecosystemic services, eco-tourism, back-to-nature movements, etc.).

The author repositions international issues in their national and local contexts, either political or historical, with a pioneering comparison of the three cases of South Africa, Argentina and Chile, true ecological and political laboratories of the southern hemisphere.

Revelation, History, and Truth A Hermeneutics of Dogma The general topic of this book concerns the ontology, epistemology, and teleology of the hermeneutics of dogma. In particular, the author addresses contemporary challenges faced by the necessity of maintaining the integrity of dogmatic truth of the Christian faith, of divine revelation and its transmission through tradition, particularly with respect to the relationship between history and doctrinal truth. The author integrates a theological hermeneutics, namely, the Lérinian hermeneutics of Vatican II, with a historically conscious hermeneutics. His aim is to show how we can consider the historical and contextual nature of dogmas, creeds and confessions while at the same time honoring their assertions of dogmatic truth that are permanent, valid and binding for all times.

Dead Sea: New Discoveries in the Cave of Letters is a multidisciplinary study of the Cave of Letters in the Nahal Hever of the Judean desert, a site reputed for having contained the most important finds evidencing the Bar Kokhba revolt, including the cache of bronzes found buried there and the papers of Babatha, one of the few direct accounts of the context of the Bar Kokhba revolt in the second century CE. Chapters by diverse scholars report on and discuss the ramifications of the 1999–2001 expedition to the site, the first organized archaeological activity there since the expeditions at Nahal Hever by Yigal Yadin in 1960–1961. Using advanced technological methodologies alongside more «traditional» archaeological techniques, the team explored several research hypotheses. The expedition sought to determine whether the material collected in the cave could substantiate the hypothesis that the cave was a place of refuge during both the Bar Kokhba revolt and the earlier Great Revolt against the Roman Empire.

The expedition also researched the viability of a relatively long-term occupation of the cave while under siege by Roman forces, questioning whether occupants would have been able to cook, sleep, etc., without severely degrading the cave environment as a viable place for human habitation. The individual chapters represent the result of analysis by scholars and scientists on different aspects of the material culture that the expedition uncovered.

Studies on the Language of Eike von Repgow Origin – Form – Effects This work was awarded the Christian Wolff prize of Martin Luther university in Halle-Wittenberg in 2016 and the Theodor Frings prize of the Saxon Academy of Sciences in Leipzig and the university of Leipzig in 2017. Eike von Repgow is generally considered to be the author of the most important book of German law. In the context of philological examination, however, it becomes clear that the authorship of those parts of the «Sachsenspiegel», compiled between 1220 and 1235, that relate to feudal law is uncertain. This study aims to discover, by reference to the land-law sections, whether the language of the work can be more precisely localized and where it arose. The focus here is on the relationship of linguistic characteristics of the oldest textual witnesses to further sources which can be ascribed to the environment in which the author lived. On this basis, the degree to which the linguistic individuality of the author, by reason of wide reception of his book, left traces in later linguistic stages of the German language.

Inclusion in the Theatre Surtitles between Aesthetics and Translation Surtitling or sign-language interpreting on the stage can lower communicative barriers for the hearing-impaired in an audience. If these forms of translation are aesthetically done, they make possible inclusive productions that address a deaf, hearing-impaired and hearing audience in equal measure. A prerequisite is the inclusion of the translation process in the preparation of the production at an early stage: «co-translation», as it is called.

Traditional technical concepts in translation technique such as source and target text, but also production processes, are rethought. The book associates theoretical reflections on theatrical translation with their practical application in two innovative projects and the evaluation of related empirical studies.

NATHALIE MÄLZER is Professor of Transmedial Translation and an initiator of the Inclusive Theatre project. Maria Wünsche is a scientific collaborator and participated in the project. They both work for the Institute for Translation Studies and Specialist Communication at University of Hildesheim. Their research fields include barrier-free communication and media translation.

Cryptographic Crimes The Use of Cryptography in Real and Fictional Crimes

This book examines the use of cryptography in both real and fictional crimes— a topic that is rarely broached. It discusses famous crimes, such as that of the Zodiac Killer, that revolve around cryptic messages and current uses of encryption that make solving cases harder and harder. It then draws parallels with the use of cryptography and secret writing in crime fiction, starting with Edgar Allan Poe and Arthur Conan Doyle, claiming that there is an implicit principle in all such writing—namely, that if the cryptogram is deciphered then the crime itself reveals its structure. The general conclusion drawn is that solving crimes is akin to solving cryptograms, as the crime fiction writers suggested. Cases of cryptographic crime, from unsolved cold cases to the Mafia crimes, are discussed and mapped against this basic theoretical assumption. The book concludes by suggesting that by studying cryptographic crimes the key to understanding crime may be revealed.

Aspects of Reference in Literary Theory Poetics, Rhetoric and Literary History

The book presents the various viewpoints that poetics, literary history and Western rhetoric have adopted throughout Western history. The aim of poetics is to render the specificity of the literary discourse by either highlighting the extra literary generative forces or by focusing on the intrinsic study of literary works. Rhetoric chiefly places emphasis on the verbal effects of discourses whereas literary history predominantly examines the temporal succession of the literary systems or of the literary institution. The author focuses on the three sections: poetics, rhetoric, and literary history and provides an introductory study on the subject of reference.

CONTENTS: Reference and reality • Poetic reflection • Meanings of poetics • Rhetoric, a millenary discipline • The specificity of rhetoric and its reference • The identity of the literary history • The literary history, a discipline of continuity • The variable reference

Scholastic Realism A Key to Understanding Peirce’s Philosophy

The aim of this work is to respond to the following question: how did Charles S. Peirce find unity for his pragmatist philosophy through the formulation of Scholastic Realism? The author proposes the said doctrine to be a reading guide, leading us through the different stages of Peirce’s work as a philosopher. By understanding his realist doctrine, we can see why he believed it was a viable theory for understanding the problem of Universals. This book demonstrates why, in Peirce’s mind, such a problem has pervaded the history of philosophy. The author’s line of argument reveals that Scholastic Realism is crucial to the understanding of his philosophy, which is a new approach in Peirce scholarship. It provides a useful framework for asking questions about reality in the same way that Peirce himself did. As a result, the author shows that Peirce’s realism addresses different yet related philosophical problems, leading Peirce to brand the final version of his philosophy as «Scientific Metaphysics». The conclusion offers an interpretation of the Scholastic Realism principle as a solution to Peirce’s concerns – a useful idea to achieve a better theory of reality in his struggle to realize metaphysics a posteriori. Peirce’s doctrine is presented alongside some of its uses, especially in the fields of abstraction theory, and also in the fundamental principles of mathematics. This work should advance our comprehension of the problems related to Peirce’s philosophy as well as shedding light on pragmatism and its origins as well as the battle between realism and nominalism.

Myth, Mind and Religion The Apocalyptic Narrative

The French anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss scoured the Amazon forest for the myths of its primitive peoples. He found that a certain logic governed the construction of these myths—his mythologique; he regarded this logic as innate in the human mind and thus universal. Despite this claim of universality, Lévi-Strauss deliberately sidestepped the myths of the biblical religions as well as the myths of modern societies. This proved to be a missed opportunity since these myths lend themselves very well to his mode of analysis.

The apocalyptic narrative is the ongoing myth of Western society. It makes its first appearance in the Bible in the story of the Exodus and in the Passion of Christ. Its characteristic feature is its opening scenario of one or another form of unendurable oppression— whether the Pharaoh in Egypt for the Jews or the bondage of the body for Christians. “Lord and servant” is the binary pair that prevails and through a process of inversion leads to the Kingdom of Heaven (celestial or terrestrial). The work of Augustine and Luther follow suit as surprisingly enough, do the Lutheran Hegel and the Hegelian Marx. In every case, the initial oppression is inverted and a sublime destination ensues.

A demonic version of the same apocalyptic narrative appears in the 1930s. The Nazis point to their own tale of ‘oppression’ of the German people and in the same fashion proclaim the Dritte Tausendjährige Reich. It is a terrible irony but perhaps Lévi-Strauss’s mythologique may help us to see through the ‘glass’ a little less darkly.

He was a renowned Canadian intellectual who engaged with the great issues of his era; a brilliant educator who inspired generations of students at the University of Toronto and received their highest ratings; a kind, elegant and witty person who refused to despair when the time had not as yet come for the causes he espoused.

Paul’s Community Formation Preaching in 1 Thessalonians An Alternative to the New Homiletic This book increases awareness about Paul’s community formation preaching which has been widely ignored in the contemporary homiletical field where the New Homiletic has exerted a strong influence. By drawing on the sociological concept of symbolic boundaries, the author demonstrates that Paul in his preaching of 1 Thessalonians used three symbolic resources in order to create boundaries for the formation of the Thessalonian community: the kerygmatic narrative, local narratives, and ethical norms. This interdisciplinary study suggests that contemporary preachers, who face the task of forming Christian communities in a post-Christian society, should preach shared narratives and communal norms for the creation of boundaries as Paul did.

On Mysticism, Ontology, and Modernity A Theological Engagement with Secularity

This new study offers a serious and long-overdue examination of the unstable bifurcation between theology and secularity. Rather than understanding these two formative elements of culture to be in a constant state of opposition, the author chooses an alternative path toward their reconciliation. In this way, a constructive relationship is developed between secular and theological ideas wherein they symbiotically challenge one another in such a way as to create new and/or re-examined opportunities for thinking about God, the world, and, indeed, the self. The book first of all embarks upon a hermeneutical reading of Meister Eckhart’s defining statement that «Being is God» and ultimately arrives (via Kant, Hegel, Gadamer, Henry, and others) at a mystically informed understanding of God’s presence both in the world and in the «heart and mind» of the human experience – an understanding that defies conventional categories and static cultural identities. It is an important study of the history, the present, and the future of religious thought, presenting a hopeful image of unity and love in a world that has been for too long divided by difference.

The Safe House Down Under Jewish Refugees from Czechoslovakia in Australia 1938–1944 After the demise of Czechoslovakia in March 1939, the Jewish population fell victim to Nazi persecution. Hoping to find a safe haven elsewhere in the world, some Czechoslovak Jews turned to Australia to seek refuge. This book focuses on their struggles to survive in lifethreatening situations and their efforts to reach the safety of the distant continent. Although the German occupation of Czechoslovakia has been a subject of extensive academic debate, the role of the Australian government in this international event has thus far not been examined. This book evaluates the impact on Australia of policies pursued

by Europe’s leading politicians with regard to Czechoslovakia that ultimately failed to prevent the outbreak of the Second World War. Central to the book is a discussion of Australia’s policy towards the admission of Jewish refugees from Czechoslovakia. Drawing on archival sources as well as original interviews conducted with former refugees from Czechoslovakia, the author offers insights into the lives and experiences of these Jewish refugees down under. At the same time, the book sheds light on Australia’s involvement in one of the defining moments of the twentieth century.

The Stolpersteine and the Commemoration of Life, Death and Government A Philosophical Archaeology Since the beginning of the 1990s, the German artist Gunter Demnig has been installing his Stolpersteine [Stumbling Stones] all over Europe – including Russia – to commemorate the victims of National Socialism. Today, the Stolpersteine constitute the world’s second largest Holocaust monument. In this book the author addresses some of the most crucial issues raised by these memorial stones. Taking as his point of departure the philosophy of Giorgio Agamben, Michel Foucault and Martin Heidegger, the author discusses the juridico-political structure of the Third Reich in which the victims lived and perished and identifies a new paradigm for the commemoration of Third Reich victims. The subject of commemoration is in fact not the dignified subject of law, but the naked life of the Muselmann: he who can neither live nor die. This book analyses the challenge of the problem of history that the Stolpersteine testify to, and it discusses whether a unique monument such as the Stolpersteine can somehow restore what was once taken from the victims.

Napoleon’s Other War Bandits, Rebels and their Pursuers in the Age of Revolutions

The wars of Napoleon are among the best-known and most exciting episodes in world history. Less well known is the uproar the armies stirred up in their path, and even more, the chaos they left in their wake. The «knock-on effect» of Napoleon’s sweep across Europe went further than is often remembered: his invasion of Spain triggered the collapse of the Spanish Empire in Latin America, and his meddling in the Balkans destabilised the Ottomans. Many places had been riven with banditry and popular tumult from time immemorial, characteristics which worsened in the havoc wrought by the wars. Other areas had known relative calm before the arrival of the French in 1792, but even the most pacific societies were disrupted by these conflagrations. Behind the battle fronts raged other conflicts, «little wars» – the guerrilla (the term was born in these years) – and bigger ones, where whole provinces rose up in arms. Bandits often stood at the centre of these «dirty wars» of ambushes, night raids, living hard in tough terrain, of plunder, rapine and early, violent death, which spread across the whole western world from Constantinople to Chile. Everywhere, they threw up unlikely characters – ordinary men who emerged as leaders, bandits who became presidents, priests who became warriors, lawyers who became murdering criminals. In studying these varying fortunes, Michael Broers provides an insight into a lost world of peasant life, a world Napoleon did so much to sweep away.

The Stated Motivations for the Early Islamic Expansion (622–641) A Critical Revision of Muslims’ Traditional Portrayal of the Arab Raids and Conquests

Monograph, English

What motivated the early Islamic conquests? Did the Arabs fight for Allah, or for wealth and dominance? Were the conquerors principally Arabs, or specifically Muslims? Were the Muslim believers motivated by religious zeal to proclaim Islam to the non-Muslims? Consequently, was Islam spread by the sword? This is a question that has crucial implications today. The Stated Motivations for the Early Islamic Expansion (622–641) extensively analyzes the earliest Arabic Muslim sources to answer these and other questions. It relies on over 400 works, including primary sources written by more than 90 medieval Muslim authors, Sunni, Shiite, Sufi, and Mu’tazilite. It explores how medieval Muslim writers represented the early Arab leaders, and how much we can trust their reports. It concludes with an examination of the Qur’ān’s commands regarding fighting and armed jihad, and questions what later commentators suggest about fighting the non-Muslims, specifically how radical Muslim interpretations match or violate Islam’s sacred scripture. This is the first scholarly analysis to focus on the stated motivations for the early Islamic expansion in the first two decades of Islam. It is a valuable resource for courses on Muslim history, introduction to Islam, Islamic origins and texts, classical and modern Islamic thought, Muhammad’s biography, Islamic Caliphates, Muslim-Christian relations, Jews in the Muslim world, Middle Eastern history, and world history. In the age of ISIS, Qaeda, and Boko Haram, this book reflects on how historiographical accounts can inform today’s multi-cultural and multi-religious societies on complex relations, mutual respect, and religious coexistence.

AYMAN S. IBRAHIM, Ph.D., was born and raised in Egypt. He has taught in various countries within the Muslim world, and in the West at undergraduate and graduate levels.

Short Fiction as a Mirror of Palestinian Life in Israel, 1944–1967 Critique and Anthology This volume seeks to document the development of the Palestinian short story between 1944 and 1967. This particularly significant phase that carried the seeds, from which the short story grew, was greatly influenced by the last years of the British mandate over Palestine in 1944, the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, and the subsequent changes that impacted Palestinian society in this country until the Arabs’ defeat in the Six Day War, 1967. Within the fold of this volume, the reader will find two parts: the first is a general account of the development of the genre of short fiction and the different approaches that characterized it along with a discussion of the language and an examination of the content. The second is an anthology of twenty-five stories published between 1944 and 1967 by Al-Ittih.ād, an Israeli Arabic-language daily newspaper.

Christians who did not Believe in Jesus Christ A Christianity Called «Geometry» in the Middle Ages Celtic Christianity, the origins of Freemasonry and certain inexplicable rites performed by the Templars are questions that have remained unanswered until now, and which are obstacles to our understanding of the Middle Ages. This book proposes solutions to these difficulties in the light of traditions holding that Jesus Christ was «no more than a man», inherited from the first Judaeo-Christian community in Jerusalem, led by the brother of Jesus. The author shows how this heresy was able to come down through the centuries until the Middle Ages. To some, it was the heir to the original Christian faith, while to others it provided the means to reconcile the religion of Christ with reason and logic. Thence it appears that the traditions born of this dissident faith are to be found in the founding manuscripts of mediaeval Freemasonry, which could shed fresh light, not only on the origins of Freemasonry, but also on those of Celtic religion, or even the rite, genuinely practised by the Templars, of spitting on the Cross, as well as on the very distinctive symbolism in some mediaeval cathedrals.

Memory as a Mobilization Resource Prior to Ethnicized Violent Conflicts The Example of North Ossetia – Ingushetia, 1989–1992 The author investigates the memory processes prior to the escalation of the conflict in Prigorodnyj Rajon (North Ossetia). In most communities, history and memory are contested: they become subjects of conflict and are used by conflict protagonists in support of their respective positions. This book links concepts of memory research with the approaches of peace and conflict research. Analysis of discourse in some 600 newspaper articles clarifies where and how relations with the past came to be vectors in the mobilization process. Narrative interviews make the views of the populations mobilized in the conflict visible. In the process, it becomes apparent that family memory in conjunction with limitations on information and emotions exercise a decisive influence on perceptions of publicly communicated memories.

Determinants, Consequences and Perspectives of Land Reform Politics in Newly Industrializing Countries A Comparison of the Indian and the South African Case This comparative case study addresses central determinants of inequalities that persist in India and South Africa. The particular focus of the study is on programs aiming at the redistribution of land to the landless poor and these programs’ consequences. The central question is why extreme inequalities persist despite land redistribution programs that have been in place for decades and what role different actors and dominant ideas play in this. Beyond this empirical focus, the study transcends theoretical cleavages in the social sciences by following the basic ideas of Giddens’ Structurational Theory. An actor-centred approach is chosen as the primary tool for analysis. It is complemented with a structurational approach to discourse analysis for a detailed analysis of actors’ preferences.

DAVID BETGE studied Political Science at the Freie Universität Berlin. He graduated with a study on the South African land reforms and finished his doctorate at the Otto Suhr Institut of the Freie Universität Berlin.

Albert Einstein The Roads to Pacifism

Albert Einstein (1879–1955) is universally known as the father of the theory of relativity; however, he was also one of the most eminent pacifists of the first half of the twentieth century. Through his active, pragmatic and nuanced breed of pacifism, he sought to confront the dilemmas and problems stemming from the unstable political conditions of his time: the beginning of the Great War, the creation and failure of the League of Nations, the emergence of totalitarian regimes, the outbreak of the Second World War, the dawn of the Atomic Age, the escalation of the Cold War, the establishment of the United Nations with its apparent institutional weakness and the need for a world government. His reflections on the subject of peace led him into dialogue with the most prestigious figures of the political and cultural world: from Romain Rolland to Bertrand Russell via Georg Friedrich Nicolai, Sigmund Freud, King Albert I of Belgium, Léo Szilárd, Emery Reves and Franklin Delano Roosevelt (amongst others). This dialogue is further emphasized by the book’s final section, an anthology of Einstein’s writings and speeches, which significantly enriches this study.

Market Entry Strategies for Innovations with Particular Emphasis on Price and Advertising Strategies By means of a control-theory simulation model, the author examines the strategic behaviour of newly created companies (innovators) that are expecting sectoral competition with established companies (imitators). As control variables, the innovator uses the sale price of the product innovations and advertising expenditure for each period. These two values operate as signals for the quality of the product offered and, in combination with interpersonal communication, reduce the uncertainty of potential consumers. The investigation takes a variety of market configurations into account. The imitator may be known or unknown by sight to the potential consumer. In the conclusion, optimum price and advertising strategies are identified and commercial recommendations derived.

CARSTEN LEGLER studied business management at the Martin Luther University HalleWittenberg. He subsequently worked there as a scientific collaborator for the professorship of accountancy and controlling.

Regulation of Cloud Services under US and EU Antitrust, Competition and Privacy Laws This book examines how cloud-based services challenge the current application of antitrust and privacy laws in the EU and the US. The author looks at the elements of data centers, the way information is organized, and how antitrust, competition and privacy laws in the US and the EU regulate cloud-based services and their market practices. She discusses how platform interoperability can be a driver of incremental innovation and the consequences of not promoting radical innovation. She evaluates applications of predictive analysis based on big data as well as deriving privacy-invasive conduct. She looks at the way antitrust and privacy laws approach consumer protection and how lawmakers can reach more balanced outcomes by understanding the technical background of cloudbased services.

Workaholism business risk Management challenges and practical action guidelines Workaholism is an underrated business risk in business and personnel management which can develop to become an existential threat to the business. This empirical study for the first time interrogates workaholics in the German-speaking world on workaholism indicators and effects on businesses. The author also surveys business framework conditions that influence the illness. A risk analysis is derived which clarifies the risk potential of workaholism and challenges it presents to management. The guidelines for practical action show the ways in which workaholics can be identified and gives pragmatic recommendations to managers for dealing with them. The phenomenon of workaholism is thus rendered comprehensible in everyday business life.

ULRIKE EMMA MEISSNER worked for many years in Germany as a personnel manager in the international field and subsequently taught Human Resources Management at Ostwestfalen-Lippe. Today she works as an international HR consultant and trainer in Europe and New Zealand.

What link can there be between the mining industry of France in the 1960s, the turning of the bones in Madagascar and witchcraft in the Congo in the 1970s, mass retailing in France, unrest in the ghettos, DIY in the United States in the 1990s, the rise of the Chinese middle class, use of SMS in Poland, shopping in Denmark, the economic crisis of 2008, the emergence of competitive convergence in the 21st century between the West and China since the turn of the century, etc.? Yet all these elements of the everyday life of consumers, companies, governments and citizens are linked by the invisible thread of globalization. All this takes on meaning when it becomes clear that a new worldwide middle class of consumers is in process of emerging and transforming the entire interplay of social forces that permeate all societies. This book presents an inductive method in action, as put into practice for nearly fift y years in qualitative surveys conducted on the ground in the fields, in offices, trains, kitchens, bathrooms or living rooms, and covering Europe, Asia, Africa, the United States and Brazil. The author advocates a new anthropology of modern times to show that all the things that go on in social life, the market, the family or the individual are impossible to observe at the same time. The scale of observation has to be adjusted so that they appear or disappear according to the focus selected. Understanding the world requires mobility of knowledge.

DOMINIQUE DESJEUX, who was born in 1946, is an anthropologist. He has worked with Michel Crozier, Alain Touraine and Georges Balandier, with whom he wrote his doctoral thesis on the Congo, and has also been a publisher for 30 years. He was appointed to a chair at the Sorbonne in 1988 (Paris Descartes University, USPC). Today, he conducts investigations on decisions, innovations and consumption in organisations and everyday life, in Europe, China, Brazil, Africa and the United States. He heads the professional network of socioanthropologists.
