        Das Alltagsleben

        Versuch einer Erklärung der individuellen Reproduktion. Autorisierte Übersetzung von Peter Kain

        by Agnes Heller, Hans Joas, Peter Kain

        Das Interesse an Theorien über das Alltagsleben hat bisher hauptsächlich zu »kulturrevolutionären« Proklamationen und zu einer Rezeption der modernen phänomenologischen Soziologie geführt. In beiden Fällen bleibt es mit der Entfaltung der marxistischen Gesellschaftstheorie unverbunden. Die Studie der ungarischen Philosophin Agnes Heller, einer der engsten Mitarbeiterinnen des späten Georg Lukács, leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Überwindung dieses Dilemmas. Ihr Ausgangspunkt ist ein emphatischer Begriff des »totalen Menschen«, der durch eine Interpretation philosophischer Schriften von Marx erarbeitet und zu einer geschichtsbezogenen Typologie menschlicher Sozialformen entwickelt wird. Das Alltagsleben wird als Gesamtheit der Aktivitäten des Einzelnen zu seiner Reproduktion begriffen. Es ist Anfang und Ende jeder menschlichen Tätigkeit. Die Institutionen, materiellen Werke und umfassenden Deutungssysteme werden in ihrer Entstehung aus den konkreten Bedürfnissen und Akten der Subjekte erfaßt. Der Kern des Buchs ist eine materialreiche Analyse der gemeinsamen Eigenschaften alltäglicher Handlungen, Verkehrsformen, Bewußtseins- und Wahrnehmungsstrukturen.

        Scottishness and Irishness in New Zealand since 1840

        by Angela McCarthy, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie

        This book examines the distinctive aspects that insiders and outsiders perceived as characteristic of Irish and Scottish ethnic identities in New Zealand. When, how, and why did Irish and Scots identify themselves and others in ethnic terms? What characteristics did the Irish and the Scots attribute to themselves and what traits did others assign to them? Did these traits change over time and if so how? Contemporary interest surrounding issues of ethnic identities is vibrant. In countries such as New Zealand, descendants of European settlers are seeking their ethnic origins, spurred on in part by factors such as an ongoing interest in indigenous genealogies, the burgeoning appeal of family history societies, and the booming financial benefits of marketing ethnicities abroad. This fascinating book will appeal to scholars and students of the history of empire and the construction of identity in settler communities, as well as those interested in the history of New Zealand.

        J. M. W. Turner

        The making of a modern artist

        by Sam Smiles, Alan Rutter

        Alone of his contemporaries, J.M.W. Turner is commonly held to have prefigured modern painting, as signalled in the existence of The Turner Prize for contemporary art. Our celebration of his achievement is very different to what Victorian critics made of his art. This book shows how Turner was reinvented to become the artist we recognise today. On Turner's death in 1851 he was already known as an adventurous, even baffling, painter. But when the Court of Chancery decreed that the contents of his studio should be given to the nation, another side of his art was revealed that effected a wholescale change in his reputation. This book acts as a guide to the reactions of art writers and curators from the 1850s to the 1960s as they attempted to come to terms with his work. It documents how Turner was interpreted and how his work was displayed in Britain, in Europe and in North America, concentrating on the ways in which his artistic identity was manipulated by art writers, by curators at the Tate and by designers of exhibitions for the British Council and other bodies. ;
