The ArtsSeptember 2021Building reputations
Architecture and the artisan, 1750–1830
by Conor Lucey
Taking a cue from revisionist scholarship on early modern vernacular architectures and their relationship to the classical canon, this book rehabilitates the reputations of a representative if misunderstood building typology - the eighteenth-century brick terraced house - and the artisan communities of bricklayers, carpenters and plasterers responsible for its design and construction. Opening with a cultural history of the building tradesman in terms of his reception within contemporary architectural discourse, chapters consider the design, decoration and marketing of the town house in the principal cities of the eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century British Atlantic world. The book is essential reading for students and scholars of the history of architectural design and interior decoration specifically, and of eighteenth-century society and culture generally.

Does Movement Really Make Us Smart?
by Petra Jansen, Stefanie Richter
Media reports often praise movement as a cure-all. But apart from its undisputed positive effect on health, does movement really make us smarter? Consider a national football team, for example – are these excessively sports-driven players automatically the smartest people? Should we simply replace all school subjects with sports? The authors provide a detailed summary of the latest scientific findings on the influence of movement on cognitive ability. They describe the effects of movement, on old age, embodiment, emotion, school as well as other factors that influence cognition. Target Group: teachers, lecturers, psychologists, psychiatrists, neurologists, psychotherapists, movement therapists.

Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre
by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Queenbe Monyei, Silke Kleemann
Schon als kleines Mädchen las Amanda alles, was ihr in die Finger kam, ob es nun ein Buch oder die Werbung auf der Cornflakes-Packung war. Da sie an einem Sprachfehler litt, schrieb sie ihre Gedanken lieber auf. Schon früh stand für sie fest: sie wollte Dichterin werden. Aber wie hätte sie ihre Gedichte vorlesen können, mit ihrem Handicap? Durch harte Arbeit überwand sie ihr Stottern, und im Januar 2021 trug sie bei der Amtseinführung von Präsident Joe Biden ihr weltberühmt gewordenes Gedicht »The Hill We Climb« vor, eine einzigartige Botschaft der Hoffnung und Zuversicht auf eine bessere Zukunft für Amerika – und die Welt. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Künstlerin, Pilotin oder Wissenschaftler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.

Literature & Literary StudiesDecember 2018Five Elizabethan progress entertainments
by Leah Scragg, Paul Edmondson
Designed to introduce the student or general reader to a largely unfamiliar area of Elizabethan theatrical activity, Five Elizabethan progress entertainments focuses on a group of entertainments mounted for the monarch in the closing years of her reign. Richly annotated, and prefaced by a substantial introduction, the texts enable an understanding of the motives underlying not only the progress itself, but the choice of locations the monarch elected to visit and the personal and political preoccupations of those with whom she determined to stay. Selected for their diversity, the entertainments exhibit the tensions underlying some royal visits, the lavish expenditure entailed for the monarch's hosts and the overlap in terms of both material and authorship between the progress entertainments and the more widely studied products of the sixteenth-century stage.

Humanities & Social SciencesSeptember 2021How to Build and Promote Social Competence
by Stenzel, Nikola M.; de Veer, Anna-Maria
Every person depends on communication with other people in everyday life. There is hardly any area of life that is not co-determined by interaction with others. The ability to shape relationships positively in the long term while achieving individualgoals plays a central role in human well-being. Accordingly, the promotion of social competence plays an important role in many psychotherapeutic contexts. This book provides information on scientifically established interventions as well as innovative concepts for building social competence. A practice-oriented guide primarily addresses the special therapeutic challenges that arise in the individual therapy setting for an interactive procedure such as social skills training: e.g., the practical implementation of role-playing and the difficulties that arise due to the dual role of “therapist - role-playing partner.” In addition, group therapy interventions are also described and numerous working materials are presented to support the implementation of the procedurein clinical practice. Target group: • medical and psychological psychotherapists• specialists working in psychiatry, psychotherapy,or psychosomatic medicine• clinical psychologists• training candidates (psychologists, physicians)in psychotherapy• lecturers of training courses and institutes forpsychotherapy

June 2016»Was ist ein Einbruch in eine Bank gegen die Gründung einer Bank?«
Das Brecht-Brevier zur Wirtschaftskrise
by Bertolt Brecht, Tom Kindt
Sieben Jahre Wirtschaftskrise. Sieben Jahre Beruhigungsrhetorik und Durchhalteparolen aus Politik, Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft. Höchste Zeit für einen neuen Blick auf die Erschütterungen, die Banken und Börsen, Währungen und Gesellschaften seit 2008 an den Rand des Abgrunds drängen. »Was ist ein Einbruch in eine Bank gegen die Gründung einer Bank?« zeigt, dass Bertolt Brechts Werk einen solchen Blick auf die Wirtschaftskrise bereithält. In sechs Lektionen versammelt das Brevier literarische, aphoristische und publizistische Texte Brechts, die – obgleich vor mehr als einem halben Jahrhundert entstanden – wie Analysen und Kommentare zu den ökonomischen Turbulenzen der Gegenwart erscheinen.

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2010Defeated flesh
Welfare, warfare and the making of modern France
by Bertrand Taithe
Defeated flesh dwells on the French defeat of 1870 and the socialist uprising of the Commune of Paris.. This is one of the first books to develop an in-depth, comparative analysis of the Franco-Prussian war and the Commune.. By looking at the history of the body and medicine it considers how the French people mobilised for the war effort and how their ultimate defeat had cultural and social consequences which led to the fin-de-siècle spirit.. Looking at the siege of Paris, the war suffering and rationing in an exceptionally harsh period of French history it revises the current debates on citizenship, centralisation and modern warfare.. Looking at many untouched sources, Taithe seeks to understand why 1870-1871 became such an important phase in the making of modern France. ;

August 1993Kalkül der Form
Herausgegeben von Dirk Baecker
by Dirk Baecker, Dirk Baecker
Der oder das Kalkül? Der Titel dieses Buches läßt die Frage bewußt offen. Der Kalkül stellt auf das von der Logik bereitgestellte Instrument zur Durchführung von Berechnungen ab. Das Kalkül meint die Berechnung selbst im Hinblick auf ein anderes, im Kalkül selbst nicht Erfaßtes. In den Beiträgen dieses Bandes geht es um G. Spencer Browns »Gesetze der Form« im doppelten Sinne der Form eines Kalküls, der eingesetzt wird und Berechnungen ermöglicht, in denen er selbst noch einmal vorkommt als das, was er nicht erfaßt. Der Band enthält die allererste Besprechung der »Gesetze der Form«, die Heinz von Foerster für die kalifornische Ökofibel »Whole Earth Catalog« geschrieben hat, sowie Beiträge, die Spencer Brown im Kontext des optionalen Konstruktivismus, der modernen sowohl zwei- wie mehrwertigen Logik und einer Theorie des Paradoxen lesen.
