        Textbook of Korean Medicine

        Medicinal drugs and formulations

        by Dr. Kenny Kuchta, Prof. Dr. Hans Wilhelm Rauwald, Hans Rausch and Dr. Raimund Royer

        The consistent and evidence-based development of Korean medicine in many clinical application areas has significantly improved its international status in recent years. The basis for this development is one of the most important medical books in Korea, the „Donguibogam“, a clinical lexicon of applications compiled about 400 years ago; at that time the traditional work also enjoyed the highest recognition in China. In 2009 it was included in the „Memory of the World“ register of UNESCO. Even now after 400 years, it still serves as a manual for writing prescriptions for many physicians in Korea, and testifies that the understanding of nature and human disease patterns is still current and clinically applicable even in the modern industrialised world. This work provides ■ understanding for Korean medicine, ■ many selected medicinal formulations and their fields of application, ■ the description and evaluation of important traditional single remedies, ■ the corresponding drug monographs with information on analytical testing

        The Renaissance text

        Theory, editing, textuality

        by Andrew Murphy

        This collection of essays focuses attention on the broad issue of Renaissance textuality. It explores such topics as the position of the reader relative to the text; the impact of editorial strategies and modes of presentation on our understanding of the text; the complexities of extended textual histories; and the relevance of gender to the process of textual retrieval and preservation. The essays, whilst informed by contemporary theory, are not dominated by a single programmatic viewpoint. Reflecting the multiplicitous nature of Renaissance textuality, the collection provides space for a variety of different positions and lines of analysis and enquiry. The Renaissance text will be of interest to those with specialist concerns in editing, textuality and bibliography, and will also be of interest to those more generally concerned with Renaissance literature or with textual or literary history. ;

        Beyond text?

        Critical practices and sensory anthropology

        by Rupert Cox, Andrew Irving, Christopher Wright

        This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons () open access license. Beyond text? Critical practices and sensory anthropology is about the relationship between anthropological understandings of the world, sensory perception and aesthetic practices. It suggests that if different sensory experiences embody and facilitate different kinds of knowledge, then we need to develop new methods and more creative forms of representation that are not based solely around text or on correspondence theories of truth. The volume brings together leading figures in anthropology, visual and sound studies to explore how knowledge, sensation and embodied experiences can be researched and represented by combining different visual, aural and textual forms which it demonstrates through an accompanying DVD. The book and DVD make an argument for a necessary, critical development in anthropological ways of knowing that take place not merely at the level of theory and representation but also through innovative fieldwork methods and media practices.

        Martha Gellhorn: The war writer in the field and in the text

        by Kate McLoughlin, Martin Hargreaves

        Martha Gellhorn was the doyenne of twentieth century war correspondence. Opinionated, honest and unafraid, she covered conflicts from the Spanish Civil War to Reagan's wars in Central America in the 1980s. Martha Gellhorn: the war writer in the field and in the text is the first critical study of her Second World War fiction and journalism. Often overlooked in accounts of war literature is the writer's precise position in relation to battle and his or her resultant standing in the text. Kate McLoughlin traces Gellhorn's daring attempts to access the war zone and her constructions of the woman war correspondent in her despatches, novels, short stories and play. Drawing on unpublished letters, close attention is given to Gellhorn's rivalry with Ernest Hemingway (the two were married from 1940 to 1945) over reaching the Normandy beaches on D-Day and its textual outcome in the pages of Collier's magazine. McLoughlin goes on to examine Gellhorn's increasingly negative portrayals of the glamorous female war reporter and to suggests why such disillusionment might have set in. ;

        Text und Geschlecht

        Mann und Frau in Eheschriften der frühen Neuzeit

        by Rüdiger Schnell

        Während neueste Untersuchungen im 15./16. Jahrhundert einen Wandel der Geschlechterbeziehungen erkannten und ihn durch sozial- und mentalitätsgeschichtliche Veränderungen zu erklären suchten, halten die Autoren der in diesem Band enthaltenen Texte in erster Linie nicht nach historischen Veränderungen und epochengeschichtlichen Zäsuren Ausschau, sondern erproben die Tragfähigkeit einer textwissenschaftlichen Analyse der Kategorie Geschlecht. Unterschiede in den Geschlechterprojektionen werden nicht vorschnell auf außertextuelle Erklärungsmomente zurückgeführt, sondern auf literarische Faktoren und rhetorische Strategien, auf wechselnde Kommunikationssituationen und Gebrauchsfunktionen.

        Ich als Text

        Frankfurter Poetikvorlesungen

        by Thomas Meinecke

        »Meinecke baute einen Plattenspieler auf und legte zum Auftakt seiner Vorlesungsreihe den Song »False Start« von Bikini Kill auf. Anschließend zitierte er Texte über seinen Roman »Tomboy«. Konsequenter kann man die Erwartungen, die mit der Poetikdozentur verbunden sind, nicht enttäuschen. Ihre Spielregeln hat der Autor zwar mit der Annahme der Dozentur anerkannt. Allerdings steht er in der Tradition der Dekonstruktion: Es gilt, »mit« den Spielregeln »gegen« diese zu spielen. Meinecke macht sich in seiner Vorlesung zugleich zur erzählten Figur. Mit seiner Aneinanderreihung von Zitaten hat er eine brillante Performance zur Dekonstruktion des Autorbegriffs geliefert. Wer zwischen den Zeilen lesen kann, wird in den vorgetragenen Zitaten zugleich eine präzise Beschreibung von Meineckes Erzählweise erkannt haben.« Jesko Bender in der »Jungle World«

        On Geo-Analysis and the aesthetics of precarity

        by Sam Okoth Opondo, Michael J. Shapiro

        Passages: On geo-analysis and the aesthetics of precarity is a multi-genre and transdisciplinary text addressing themes such as colonialism, nuclear zones of abandonment, migration control regimes, transnational domestic work, the biocolonial hostilities of the hospitality industry, legal precarities behind the international criminal justice regime, the shadow-worlds of the African soccerscape, and immunity regimes related to the COVID-19 pandemic. This book invites inquiry into today's apocalyptic narratives, humanitarian reason, and international criminal justice regimes, as well as the precarity generated by citizen time and 'consulate time'. The aesthetic breaks emerging from the book's image-text montage draw attention to the ethics of encounter and passage that challenges colonial, domestic, and nation-statist sovereignty regimes of inattention.

        Adapting Frankenstein

        The monster's eternal lives in popular culture

        by Dennis R. Cutchins, Dennis R. Perry

        Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is one of the most popular novels in western literature. It has been adapted and re-assembled in countless forms, from Hammer Horror films to young-adult books and bandes dessinées. Beginning with the idea of the 'Frankenstein Complex', this edited collection provides a series of creative readings that explore the elaborate intertextual networks that make up the novel's remarkable afterlife. It broadens the scope of research on Frankenstein while deepening our understanding of a text that, 200 years after its original publication, continues to intrigue and terrify us in new and unexpected ways.

        Die Struktur des künstlerischen Textes

        Herausgegeben mit einem Nachwort und einem Register von Rainer Grübel. Vollständige, autorisierte, um ein neues Vorwort des Autors vermehrte Übersetzung aus dem Russischen von Rainer Grübel, Walter Kroll und Hans-Eberhard Seidel

        by Jurij M. Lotman, Rainer Grübel, Rainer Grübel, Rainer Grübel, Rainer Grübel

        Der literaturwissenschaftliche Strukturalismus findet allmählich auch in Deutschland breiteres Interesse. Im Anschluß an die Rezeption der Arbeiten der tschechischen Strukturalisten (Mukařovský, es 230 und 428) traten Fragen der Wirkungsgeschichte literarischer Texte sowie der literarischen Evolution in den Blickpunkt. Ein anderes Konzept der Forschung geht der Struktur der Texte selbst auf den Grund. Den Rahmen für derartige Untersuchungen bildet die Kommunikationstheorie: Kunst wird als eines der kommunikativen Medien begriffen, als eine Art Sprache mit einer bestimmten Organisation. Dieser Ansatz nähert die Kunstwissenschaft der Theorie des sprachlichen Zeichens an, wie sie heute von der Linguistik vertreten wird. Kunstwissenschaft und Linguistik bilden somit Teilgebiete einer allgemeinen Semiotik.
