        Knowledge, mediation and empire

        James Tod's journeys among the Rajputs

        by Florence D'Souza, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie

        This study of the British colonial administrator James Tod (1782-1835), who spent five years in north-western India (1818-22) collecting every conceivable type of material of historical or cultural interest on the Rajputs and the Gujaratis, gives special attention to his role as a mediator of knowledge about this little-known region of the British Empire in the early nineteenth century to British and European audiences. The book aims to illustrate that British officers did not spend all their time oppressing and inferiorising the indigenous peoples under their colonial authority, but also contributed to propagating cultural and scientific information about them, and that they did not react only negatively to the various types of human difference they encountered in the field.

        Die verborgene Tradition

        Die verborgene Tradition

        Essays

        by Hannah Arendt

        Innerhalb der lebenslangen Auseinandersetzung Hannah Arendts mit der ›jüdischen Frage‹ kommt der Verborgenen Tradition eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Hannah Arendt versammelte in diesem Band sieben in den dreißiger und vierziger Jahren verfaßte Essays: Über den Imperialismus – Organisierte Schuld – Die verborgene Tradition – Juden in der Welt von gestern – Franz Kafka – Aufklärung und Judenfrage – Der Zionismus aus heutiger Sicht. Jeder dieser Essays ist, wie sie in der vorausgestellten ›Zueignung an Karl Jaspers‹ ausführt, im Bewußtsein des jüdischen Schicksals in diesem Jahrhundert geschrieben. Sich kurz nach der Shoah in Deutschland, in deutscher Sprache zu politischen, historischen und literarischen Themen aus jüdischer Perspektive zu äußern ist für sie keineswegs selbstverständlich. Der Essayband ist das Zeugnis ihrer frühen Entscheidung, dennoch von jüdischer Seite aus zu der nach 1945 in Deutschland beginnenden Auseinandersetzung mit der Vergangenheit beizutragen. Die verborgene Tradition erschien erstmals 1976 im Suhrkamp Verlag. Die Sammlung geht zum größeren Teil zurück auf die erste Buchveröffentlichung Hannah Arendts im Nachkriegsdeutschland, Sechs Essays (1948).

        Die philosophische Aktualität der jüdischen Tradition
        October 2000

        Die philosophische Aktualität der jüdischen Tradition

        by Werner Stegmaier

        In diesem Band, in dem alle relevanten geisteswissenschaftlichen Disziplinen vertreten sind, wird das Denken der jüdischen Tradition nicht mehr wie gewohnt an den Rationalitätskriterien des philosophisch-wissenschaftlichen Denkens gemessen, unter denen es dann willkürlich und irrational erscheint, sondern selbst zum Horizont der Kritik gemacht. Ziel ist es, von den namhaftesten Vertretern der jüdischen Tradition her das europäische Denken zur Besinnung über seine Grundentscheidungen zu bringen.

        Die verborgene Tradition

        Acht Essays

        by Hannah Arendt, Friedrich Griese

        Kurz nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg erschienen sechs Essays von Hannah Arendt über politisch-soziologische und philosophisch-literarische Themen, geschrieben im Bewußtsein der Zeit, das ein Bewußtsein des jüdischen Schicksals war: Über die organisierte Schuld, den Imperialismus, die Existenzphilosophie, über die verborgene Tradition eines Heine, Kafka, Chaplin oder Stefan Zweig. »Es fällt heute einem Juden nicht leicht, in Deutschland zu veröffentlichen, und sei er ein Jude deutscher Sprache. Angesichts dessen, was geschehen ist, zählt die Verführung, seine eigene Sprache wieder schreiben zu dürfen, wahrhaftig nicht, obwohl dies die einzige Heimkehr aus dem Exil ist, die man nie ganz aus den Träumen verbannen kann«, so definiert Hannah Arendt in einer dem Band vorgestellten Zueignung an ihren Lehrer Karl Jaspers die Situation, aus der heraus sie spontan und zwingend Stellung bezieht. Die Aufsätze dieses bisher nicht mehr erschienenen »Buches seiner Zeit« sind für die vorliegende Ausgabe um zwei Aufsätze über die Aufklärung und die Jugendfrage (in neuer Übersetzung aus dem Englischen) erweitert.

        Riddles at work in the early medieval tradition

        Words, ideas, interactions

        by Megan Cavell, Jennifer Neville

        Capitalising on developments in the field over the past decade, Riddles at work provides an up-to-date microcosm of research on the early medieval riddle tradition. The book presents a wide range of traditional and experimental methodologies. The contributors treat the riddles both as individual poems and as parts of a tradition, but, most importantly, they address Latin and Old English riddles side-by-side, bringing together texts that originally developed in conversation with each other but have often been separated by scholarship. Together, the chapters reveal that there is no single, right way to read these texts but rather a multitude of productive paths. This book will appeal to students and scholars of early medieval studies. It contains new as well as established voices, including Jonathan Wilcox, Mercedes Salvador-Bello and Jennifer Neville.

        The Irish in Manchester c.1750–1921

        Resistance, adaptation and identity

        by Mervyn Busteed

        This book examines the development of the Irish community in Manchester, one of the most dynamic cities of nineteenth-century Britain. Based on research into a wide variety of local sources, it examines the process by which the Irish came to be blamed for all the ills of the Industrial Revolution and the ways in which they attempted to cope with a sometimes actively hostile environment. It discusses the nature and degree of residential segregation in one notable Irish district and the role of the Catholic Church as a source of spiritual comfort and the base for a dense network of mutual aid and social and cultural organisations. It also examines how the Irish community allied itself with local campaign groups and political parties and organised celebrations and processions that simultaneously expressed its evolving sense of Irishness but fitted in with local traditions and customs.

        Biografía de un cimarrón

        By Miguel Barnet and Esteban Montejo

        by Catherine Davies, William Rowlandson

        This Biography of a runaway slave is arguably the best-known book to have been written and published in revolutionary Cuba, being the testimonial narrative of Esteban Montejo, a former slave, runaway, and soldier in the Cuban wars of independence. The text is the collaboration between ethnographer Miguel Barnet and Montejo, the result of three years of tape-recorded interviews, transcribed, edited and annotated by Barnet. Montejo provides a first-hand account of slavery in nineteenth-century Cuba - the language, religion, music, and customs - and describes life in the sugar plantations and mills and as a runaway slave. Montejo's text also covers key historical moments, from slavery to Abolition, the Ten Years War, the Spanish American War, and US intervention in the new republic. Reflecting the growing interest in Latin American and Cuban Studies, this student edition includes the complete text in Spanish, notes in English, a time-line of Cuban history and themes for debate and discussion. The extensive introduction focuses on three main areas: an overview of Cuban history featuring slavery, wars of independence and the new republic; an overview of the genre of the testimonial narrative as it emerged as an important literary style in revolutionary Cuba; and an analysis of the relationship between the Cuban Revolution and the publication of the text. There is also an extensive bibliography. ;

        Medication Analysis

        Basic principles and case examples

        by Pharm. D. Ina Richling

        Several different pills prescribed by many different physicians: pharmacists encounter patients in this situation every day!

The authors guide their readers step by step through the discussions with the patient, the stages of the analysis, and the clear documentation. Case examples reflect on the content and illustrate implementation. The launch of pharmaceutical services enables an improvement in the safety and efficacy of customers‘ drug therapy in the pharmacy by means of the service „Extended medication counselling for polymedication“. Everything pharmacists need to know for the necessary medication analysis can be found in this book. This completely revised 2nd edition includes: - Important information on pharmaceutical services - Illustrative case examples on many indications - QR codes that lead to additional digital material Whether it is a detailed adjustment or a major change to medication: every patient benefits from the intervention.

        Realist film theory and cinema

        The nineteenth-century Lukácsian and intuitionist realist traditions

        by Ian Aitken

        'Realist film theory and cinema' embraces studies of cinematic realism and 19th century tradition, the realist film theories of Lukács, Grierson, Bazin and Kracauer, and the relationship of realist film theory to the general field of film theory and philosophy. This is the first book to attempt a rigorous and systematic application of realist film theory to the analysis of particular films. The book suggests new ways forward for a new series of studies in cinematic realism, and for a new form of film theory based on realism. It stresses the importance of the question of realism both in film studies and in contemporary life. Aitken's work will be of interest to scholars and advanced students of film studies, literary studies, media studies, cultural studies and philosophy.

        Political responsibility and the European Union

        by Myrto Tsakatika

        This book addresses the question of political legitimacy in the European Union from the much neglected angle of political responsibility. It develops an original communitarian approach to legitimacy based on Alasdair MacIntyre's ethics of virtues and practices, that can be contrasted with prevalent liberal-egalitarian and neo-republican approaches. Tsakatika argues that a 'responsibility deficit', quite distinct from the often discussed 'democratic deficit', can be diagnosed in the European Union. This is documented in chapters that provide in-depth analysis of accountability, transparency and the difficulties associated with identifying responsibility in European governance. Closing this gap requires going beyond institutional engineering. It calls for gradual convergence towards certain core social and political practices and for the flourishing of the virtues of political responsibility in Europe's nascent political community. Throughout the book, normative political theory is brought to bear on concrete dilemmas of institutional choice faced by the EU during the recent constitutional debates. 'Political responsibility and the European Union' will be of interest to specialists and postgraduate students of political theory, constitutional law and European Union Studies. ;

        T wie Tessa - Codewort Lotusblüte (Band 2)

        by Frauke Scheunemann

        T for Tessa - Codeword Lotus Flower (Vol. 2) From Hamburg Harbour to Rotterdam - Tessa topsecret!Shooting training, karate, heart palpitations and band rehearsals - Tessa Neumann's comfortable life has finally come to an end since she "accidentally" became an agent of the internationally operating secret service R.I.N.G. Now she's out to put a stop to the masterminds of organized crime.And it’s Tessa's first mission to be involved from the very beginning! Quite stressful but usually absolutely okay, if not now of all times Timo Erhardt, the crush of her sleepless nights, would show interest in her. How can fate throw such lousy timing at her? Actually, Tessa would really like to take a break, but evil never sleeps, as we all know. The scene of the crime in this mission is the port of Hamburg. Here, the customs investigation has uncovered 16 tons of cocaine in the container of a cargo ship. A remarkable catch! But one thing soon becomes clear to Tessa, her band mates and the Mongolian gerbil Hector: the real culprits are not in Hamburg, but in Rotterdam. There a cat-and-mouse game begins, in which the girls have to show what they are made of. With their combined forces, they manage to lure the criminals into a trap so that the Dutch police can arrest them. But mousy Hector discovers that drugs are not the only commodity being smuggled across Europe via Rotterdam: In fact, one of the smugglers is also dealing in exotic animals, animals listed as Endangered Species, so they can't be imported. But be assured, Hector wouldn't be Hector if he didn't do everything he could to save the animals!
