The international creation of typefaces after 1950 was decisively influenced by the Swiss type designer Adrian Frutiger. His Univers typeface and the machine-reada-ble font OCR-B, which was adopted as an ISO standard, are milestones, as is his type for the Paris airports, which set new standards for signage types and evolved into the Frutiger typeface. With his corporate types, he helped to define the public profiles of companies such as the Japanese Shiseido line of cosmetics. In all he created some fifty types, including Ondine, Méridien, Avenir, and Vectora.
Based on conversations with Frutiger himself and on extensive research in France, England, Germany, and Switzerland, this publication provides a highly detailed and accurate account of the type designer’s artistic development.
All of his types – from the design phase to the market-ing stage – are illustrated and analyzed with reference to the technology and related types. Hitherto unpub-lished types that were never realized and more than one hundred logos complete the picture.
Now available as a study edition: the reference work on Frutiger‘s accomplishments
Extensive image material and detailed background information on the typeface canon of the Swiss designer

the nature of rules, regularities and units in languageA Network Model of the Language System and of Language Use
Comprehensive networks of language make use of structures that go beyond the basic associative connections that can be found in the brain. The present study is an attempt to provide an account of language that restricts itself to structures of a neu-rophysiological kind, i.e. simple nodes, excitatory and inhibitory connections.

demokratiege-schichte als Zäsurgeschichte[The History of Democracy as a Series of Interruptions: Discourses in the Early Weimar Republic]
Diskurse der frühen Weimarer Republik
By combining historiography and linguistic discourse analysis, this volume documents the productive use of transdisciplinary collaboration in the humanities and the interdisciplinary affinity between linguistic, discursive and conceptual historiography, and language history. The essays all address subject matter in the context of the political upheaval of the early Weimar Republic.

handbook of JaPanese Psycholinguistics
Studies of Japanese language and linguistics have advanced quite significantly in the last half century due to progress in the study of the cognitive pro-cesses and brain mechanisms underlying language use, language acquisition, and language disorders. Thanks to technological developments, experimen-tal techniques employed in psycholinguistic studies have also advanced and a large body of new knowl-edge has accumulated. The current volume brings these state-of-art findings together and discusses our brain functions, in particular, the process of Japanese language acquisition and the mechanism of Japanese language perception and production.

Pragmatics of discourse
Discourse is language as it occurs, in any form or context, beyond the speech act. It may be written or spoken, monological or dialogical, but there is always a communicative aim or purpose. The pres-ent volume provides systematic orientation in the vast field of studying discourse from a pragmatic perspective. It first gives an overview of a range of approaches developed for the analysis of discourse, including, among others, conversation analysis, genre analysis, functional discourse grammar and corpus-driven approaches. The focus is furthermore on functional units in discourse, such as discourse markers, speech act sequences, interactional moves and phases, and also silence. Finally, the volume examines different types of discourse (e.g. narra-tives, service encounters, press releases) in various discourse domains (e.g. medical contexts, the media, education). Each article surveys the current state of the art of the respective topic area while also presenting new research findings.

Eine sprachtypologisch-kontrastive Analyse
This study examines the issue of substantive deter-mination in German and Hungarian from a perspec-tive that contrasts typologies. Starting from the semantic-pragmatic functions of the determinative, the author describes its use in these two languages as an expression of definiteness, indefiniteness, and genericity.

segmental structure and tone
This volume seeks to reevaluate the nature of tone-segment interactions in phonology. The contribu-tions describe and discuss data that indicate some kind of relationship of tone with vowels and/or con-sonants, from a synchronic and from a diachronic perspective. The papers incorporate data from various types of languages where tonal information plays a lexically distinctive role, from classical tone languages to so-called tone accent systems.

the emergence of creole syllable structureAn Empirical Investigation of Six Caribbean Creoles
This book presents an empirical study of syllable structure and phonotactic restructuring in six Carib-bean creoles with Dutch, English and French as main lexifier languages. It is shown that, although some structures are more commonly permitted than others, there is considerable cross-creole variation, especially with respect to word-final structures. The findings provide support for recent SLA approaches to the emergence of creole phonology.

The book is the first substantial description of Tundra Nenets, a Uralic language spoken in Western Siberia and the north of European Russia. It provides a lasting piece of documentation of this highly endangered language. For a language as little researched as Nenets, any aspect of grammar may prove to be of potential significance for the field of linguistics and turn out to be theoretically challenging.

Dhivehi, the language of the Maldives, has received little attention in the linguistic literature, and no other comprehensive grammar of the standard lan-guage has yet been published. This work describes the phonology, unique orthography, morphology, and syntax of standard Dhivehi. Plentiful examples with native orthography, Roman transliteration, and morpheme-by-morpheme glossing illustrate the various features of the language. This grammar will be of use both to linguists and to students of Dhivehi.

changes between the linesDiachronic contact phenomena in written Pennsylvania German
The book examines the diachronic dimension of contact-induced language change in Pennsylvania German (PG), a variety of German in long-term contact with English. Previous investigations of PG have drawn a more or less static, rather than dynamic, picture of this contact variety. The present study explores the dynamics of selected semantic and syntactic changes in Pennsylvania German, based on local print media from 1868 to 1992.

reconstruction and resumPtion in indirect a’-dePendenciesA Comparative West-Germanic Perspective on Relative Clauses and the Proleptic Construction
This monograph investigates A’-dependencies in Standard German, Alemannic and Dutch where the dislocated constituent is indirectly, i.e. not transformationally, related to the position where it is interpreted. The study focuses on relative clauses and shows that an important part of the relativiza-tion system in these languages involves a hitherto ignored construction termed resumptive prolepsis. With its detailed examination of reconstruction effects and the properties of resumption in these constructions, the book makes an important contri-bution to the study of A’-syntax.

blending sPacesThe Interplay of Languages, Cultures and Minds in Second Language Learning
This book comprehensively analyzes the develop-ment of interculturally blended third spaces by the second language learner, beginning with the linguistic and sociocultural imprints of the first language and culture on the mind and culminating in a phase-model of the development of intercul-tural competence. The focus of the book is on the gradual development of interculturally blended third spaces in the mind of the learner as genuinely new bases for construction.

Jean Paul is one of the great classics of German literature. This new historical-critical edition of part of his works presents the core area of Jean Paul’s output for the first time from a consideration of the process of composition; it not only presents the texts in what the author regarded as their final form, but also allows the reader access to versions of the works never previously edited and to preliminary handwritten studies on a large scale. The commen-tary sets out the rich variety of Jean Paul’s meta-phors using previously inaccessible posthumous collections and presents a new view of an author long regarded as difficult to understand.

For the first time, this study offers a detailed analysis of the translations of Paul Celan’s poetry published in French from 1971 to 2010. In addition, the author proposes a new model for translating poetry and analyzing poetic translation that extends beyond the work of Celan and engages critically with existing methods. As a result, it becomes pos-sible to read Paul Celan’s poetry from an entirely new, foreign, and yet familiar perspective.

With the medicalization of governance, the figure of the doctor came into focus, and the doctor‘s diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic procedures became a model for governmental ac-tion, one that helped shape the discourse of political crises, uprisings, and epidemics.

Schreibsprachliche und textstrukturelle Varianz in der “Melusine” des Thüring von Ringoltingen (1473/74-1692/93)
This study examines the Early New High German prose romance “Melusine” by Thüring von Ringolt-ingen to explore the relationship between the practice of printing and language change. Based on a corpus of over 30 print editions of the “Melusine” (published from 1473/74 to 1692/93), the study analyzes factors favoring variance and consistency in print editions, written language, and changes at the textual level.

literarische säkularisierung im mittelalter[Literary Secularization in the Middle Ages]
This work explores the historical signature of secu-larization phenomena in literature between the 11th and 15th centuries. Various analyses explore the ways that the aesthetic and the religious overlapped in the literature of the Middle Ages, but also began to diverge from each other. A focus is placed on secularization strategies in different textual genres.

This book integrates discursive, cognitive and social approaches in order to better understand processes of memory-making in real-world activi-ties. It investigates discursive acts of remembering that are related to periods of political violence in Argentina to examine how individual and collective remembering work in both institutional settings (e.g. commemorative speeches in public memori-als) and private settings (e.g. family conversations).

miniature monumentsModeling German History
This study takes a material object as its starting point: small-scale models of bombed out cities. Created between 1946 and the present, these plastic renderings of places provide eerie glimpses of destruction and devastation resulting of war. This study considers these “miniature monuments” in a deep cultural history that interlaces the 16th, 18th, and 20th centuries. Miniature Monuments thus tackles a haunting paradox: building ruins.

“if then the world a theatre Present…”Revisions of the Theatrum Mundi Metaphor in Early Modern England
To picture the world as a theatre has been a com-mon procedure since antiquity. In early modernity, however, the theatrum mundi became a particularly prominent topic, and most intensely so in England where this metaphor was used by playwrights as well as by theologians bitterly opposed to the professional theatre. The anthology examines how and why the uses of the theatrum mundi metaphor changed at that time, drawing on plays, pamphlets, epics, treatises, legal proclamations and pictorial sources.

The aesthetic categories “outline” and “con-tour” are of central importance in the history of literature on art. The problematic history of these categories furnishes insight into the evolution of aesthetic thinking in its continuities, fissures, and mechanisms of change. This study traces significant moments in the history of “outline” and “contour” from antiquity through the beginning of the 20th century.

ironie, Polemik und ProVokation[Irony, Polemics, and Provocation in Arthu-rian Romance]
This work explores varying concepts of irony in Arthurian romance. It looks at the places where irony is linked to other forms of improper speech and criticism, is transformed into polemic or serves to provoke, and where it suggests a social function of the literature. The volume thus casts new light on medieval narrative as well as on the “modern” literary phenomenon of irony.

oaths and swearing in ancient greece
The oath was an institution of fundamental impor-tance across a wide range of social interactions throughout the ancient Greek world, making a crucial contribution to social stability and harmony; yet there has been no comprehensive, dedicated scholarly study of the subject for over a century. This volume of a two-volume study explores the nature of oaths as Greeks perceived it, the ways in which they were used (and sometimes abused) in Greek life and literature, and their inherent binding power.

schweigen in Versen[Silence in Verse: Text, Translation, and Studies on Gregory of Nazianzus’s Poetry of Silence (II,1,34A/B)]
Text, Übersetzung und Studien zu den Schweigegedichten Gregors von Nazianz (II,1,34A/B)
The little–researched poetry of Gregory of Nazian-zus reflects a remarkable interweaving of Judeo–Christian thought and the Greek–Pagan poetic tradition. This book includes a bilingual edition and analysis of the imagery in the double–poem “On Silence During Lent” (Carm. II,1,34A/B), a work that offers an especially vivid illustration of the often innovative interposition of different traditions.

strategie und PhilosoPhie bei seneca[Strategy and Philosophy in Seneca: Studies on Therapeutic Technique in the „Epistulae morales“]
Untersuchungen zur therapeutischen Technik in den “Epistulae morales”
How seriously are we to take Seneca’s philosophiz-ing in the Epistulae morales? Much of their content seems inconsistent and designed for mere effect. This study reveals how Seneca’s choice of words and intellectual acuity are subordinated to the pedagogical aim of gradual persuasion. It becomes apparent that Seneca‘s formulation is tactical and that his statements must be interpreted in terms of their specific psychological intent.

The Praecepta Tonica by John of Alexandria (5th-6th cent. AD) is one of our richest sources for an-cient Greek accentuation and an indispensable tool for reconstructing Herodian’s famous De prosodia catholica. Despite its importance, it is available only in a seriously flawed edition brought out by Karl Wilhelm Dindorf in 1825. The new edition offers an authoritative new critical text based on a thorough review of the manuscript evidence and the modern scholarship, and includes a rich collection of parallel passages intended to place the treatise in its grammatical context.

In recent years, the methods of modern narrative theory have become essential tools for researching ancient texts. This work analyzes figural perspec-tives in the Civil War epic Pharsalia by the Roman poet Lucan (39-65 AD), and describes their func-tion in communicating the overall message of the text. The author demonstrates unique elements in Lucan’s figural perspective through a comparison with Virgil’s Aeneid.

logos und Praxis[Logos and Praxis: Spartan Paradigms in Isocrates]
Sparta als politisches Exemplum in den Schriften des Isokrates
This book explores the contradictory images of the Spartan polis presented in the work of Isocrates. Countering the belief that presentation is always subordinate to rhetorical persuasion, the author shows that Isocrates actually presented different types of argumentation. Isocrates distanced himself from many arguments, calling for a discourse based on morality. His work is a critical commentary on the rhetorical practices of his times.

An important element of social identity can be found at this crossroads, however, an insight that facilitates proper assessment of the importance of Greek historical writing, thus casting an entirely new light on a key phenomenon of ancient culture.

Addressing the relationship between religion and ideology, and drawing on a range of literary, ritual, and visual sources, Beate Pongratz-Leisten argues that Assyria as a polity was as much exposed to (and influenced by) Babylonia in the south as it was to the Hittite and Hurrian cultural horizon in the north, and that this exposure was clearly reflected in the formulation and development of Assyria‘s royal ideology.

The archaeology of Greece remains ensconced in traditional discourses of classics and art history. In recent decades, fieldwork has led to new research directions, allowing us to reevaluate classical archaeology as a distinct field generating its own research questions. This book compiles case studies of current fieldwork in the Greek world (ca. 800-100 B.C.), considering new data and approaches in shaping a discourse in Greek archaeology.

greek theatre in the fourth century bc[Greek Theatre in the Fourth Century BC]
Past scholarship described the fourth century BC as an age of theatrical decline. This book, the first to explore all aspects of fourth-century theatre, reveals it to be an epoch of unparalleled expansion and in-novation. 19 leading scholars evaluate the evidence for fourth-century drama to become the pre-emi-nent cultural institution of the ancient world.

submerged literature in ancient greek cultureAn Introduction
Illuminating the ways ancient Greek culture placed different texts at edge of transmission remains a desideratum. Intended as a new hermeneutics to study the whole range of texts that were produced for socially relevant events in ancient Greece and to investigate the dynamics behind their inclusion or exclusion from production, diffusion and transmis-sion, this book offers fresh approaches to ancient Greek literature and cultural history.

biblical lexicology: hebrew and greekSemantics – Exegesis – Translation
Editor Romina Vergari
Lexicography, together with grammatical studies and textual criticism, forms the basis of biblical exegesis. Recent decades have seen much progress in this field, yet increasing specialization also tends to have the paradoxical effect of turning exegesis into an independent discipline, while leaving lexi-cography to the experts. The present volume seeks to renew and intensify the exchange between the study of words and the study of texts.

“to teach” in ancient israelA Cognitive Linguistic Study of a Biblical Hebrew Lexical Set
Numerous studies have sought to understand the nature of education and the extent of literacy in ancient Israel, but none has asked what the ancient Israelites thought about teaching. This study is the first to ask how they conceived of the teaching pro-cess. It furthers our understanding of the ancient Is-raelites’ concept of teaching, and provides a model for semantic studies of ancient texts grounded in cognitive linguistic theory.

les leçons et les énigmes du PasséUne exégèse intra-biblique des psaumes historiques
A significant part of Biblical literature is the result of a process involving the reception and revision of earlier texts and traditions contained in the Bible it-self, among them the historical psalms. An analysis of the intertextuality present in these psalms sheds light not only on their meaning and compositional purpose, but also on the redaction and composition of the Pentateuch.

the roman army and the exPansion of the gosPelThe Role of the Centurion in Luke-Acts
What is the literary function of centurions in the story of Luke-Acts? To answer this question, the book considers these NT texts alongside the Greco-Roman and Jewish sources that offer insights into the Roman military. It demonstrates a common perception of centurions as principal representa-tives of the imperial power and views their role in Luke-Acts as prototypical Gentile believers in anticipation of the Christian mission to the Empire.

second temPle songs of ZionA Generic Analysis of the Apostrophe to Zion (11QPsa XXII 1-15); Tobit 13:9-18 and 1 Baruch 4:30-5:9
Although in Second Temple literature we find a variety of songs concerned with the future of Jerusalem, little attempt has been made to analyse these comparatively as a generic group. In this study, three songs have been selected on the basis of their similarity in style, ideas and their apparent original composition in Hebrew. The texts have been subjected to a literary analysis both individu-ally and then comparatively.

This work closely examines Bonaventura’s († 1274) philosophical-theological concept of time and eternity. It focuses on the important notions of tempus and aevum (created eternity) and on Bonaventura‘s position within Augustinian and Aristotelian lines of speculation about time. The study also considers questions of God’s uncreated eternity (aeternitas), the eternity of the world, and links to Bonaventura’s theology of history.

What is the significance of sustainable resource management for the functioning of Mediterranean island societies? How do human-environment rela-tions reflect in a multi-ethnic religious landscape? This book poses these questions in the context of the Ottoman, British, and modern history of Cy-prus. It explores the socio-ecological dimension of the Cyprus Conflict and considers the role of local environmental practices for historical coexistence and modern division. The book synthesizes theo-retical approaches from the research on ‚religion and ecology‘ with the anthropology of Cyprus, with the goal to develop and establish an ecologi-cal perspective on coexistence and conflict in the Mediterranean.

the scientification of religionAn Historical Study of Discursive Change, 1800–2000
The enigmatic relation between religion and sci-ence still presents a challenge to European societies and to ideas about what it means to be ‘modern.’ This book argues that secularism, rather than push-ing back religious truth claims, in fact has been religiously productive itself. A historical analysis demonstrates that religious discourses have been re-configured in the secular sciences, thus prolonging the relevance of religion in new constellations.

Zone Morality describes systems – families and businesses – created by the causal reciprocities of their members. These relations embody the duties and permissions of a system’s moral code. We move easily among core systems, though interests and moral demands may vary. Procedural democracy promises equity to people or systems having diverse interests when society fails to create a public that governs for the common interest.

the teleology of reasonA Study of the Structure of Kant’s Critical Philosophy
This work argues that teleological motives lie at the heart of Kant’s critical philosophy and that a precise analysis of teleological structures can both illuminate the basic strategy of its fundamental arguments and provide a key to understanding its unity. It thus provides, through an examination of Kant’s major writings, a detailed interpretation of his claim that philosophy in the true sense must consist of a teleologia rationis humanae.

der wert der Vagheit[The Value of Vagueness]
In classical logic, vagueness is an undesirable property for predicates. However, this study sug-gests for the first time the benefits of vagueness in natural language. Communicating through vague predicates is usually successful. They enable effi-cient, economical, and flexible communication. The study examines whether vagueness in the law has positive aspects and discusses a number of practical implications for everyday life.

sPace and timeA Priori and A Posteriori Studies
In the current debate on the nature of space and time there is sometimes a tendency to separate too rigidly between a priori and a posteriori approaches to the relevant issues. The papers collected in this volume aim at contributing to the goal of bridging the gap between these two perspectives, thereby showing the fruitfulness of combining them as much as possible.

Induction is the logical process we use to arrive at general claims, scientific laws, definitions, and predictions. This book offers state-of-the-art essays by experts who argue against the prevailing Hu-mean view of inductive reasoning as an unreliable, enumerative argument. They present alternative accounts in line with an on-going tradition that includes authors such as Socrates, Aristotle, the Scholastics, Goethe, Lonergan, and Rescher.

The Cartesian metaphysical background of most contemporary bio-scientists limits their ability to understand the uniqueness of biological processes. The authors of this volume explore the viability of process ontology for increasing our understand-ing of core concepts of biology such as organism, evolution, and teleology. The book presents a new philosophical approach to several dimensions of the phenomenon of life.

This volume is the first collection of articles dedicated to Wittgenstein’s thoughts on colour, focusing in particular on his so-called Remarks on Colour, a piece of writing that has received com-parably little attention from Wittgenstein scholars. The articles discuss why Wittgenstein wrote so intensively about colour during the last years of his life and what significance these remarks have for understanding his philosophical work in general.

denken über nichts – intentionalität und nicht-existenZ bei husserl[Thinking About Nothing: Intentional-ity and the Problem of Non-Existence in Husserl]
Ever since Parmenides, one of philosophy’s riddles has been how we are able to direct our thoughts to non–being. Erhard uses the problem of non-existence as the starting point for an analysis of Husserl’s phenomenology. He examines Husserl’s interpretation of judgments about non–being as judgments made “under assumption” and his analy-sis of “free fantasy.” Erhard thus demonstrates that Husserl is compatible with today’s non–relational theories.

What makes a property intrinsic? What exactly does the intrinsic/extrinsic distinction rest upon? These questions and the various problems associ-ated with them bear great importance on debates in such diverse fields as ethics, philosophy of mind or philosophy of science. The anthology provides a comprehensive overview of central facets of these debates, including both crucial earlier and impor-tant new contributions. It thus forms an indispen-sible component of any serious study of the topic.

Feeling, wanting, and acting are typically under-stood solely in terms of the individual. What does it mean, then, when we share feelings, have a com-mon goal, or act jointly? This volume addresses the social dimension of these phenomena from diverse philosophical perspectives and from a sociological viewpoint. It reveals that sociality plays a constitu-tive part in our feeling, wanting, and acting.

The sense of smell in animals is the initial well-spring of all intuitions of meaning. The first art form expressing such perception is divination, or mantics. The informal mental intuitions of today’s humans in the form of suspicions or guesses reveal traces of the ongoing presence of such original divination. The metaphysical aim to provide an eloquent voice for these traces may be understood as metaphysics from below.

Albrecht von Stosch (1818–1896) was an outstand-ing general during the Bismarck era, both as a mili-tary professional and a politician. After his military career, from 1872 to 1883 he served as the Minister of the Admiralty and was responsible for building up the fleet. His correspondence reveals the image of a very well connected liberal statesman with great loyalty to his Emperor who had a problematic relationship with the Imperial Chancellor.

Jugendbewegung, antisemitismus und rechtsradikale Politik[The Youth Movement, Anti-Semitism, and Right-Wing Extremism]
Vom „Freideutschen Jugendtag“ bis zur Gegenwart
The year 2013 marks the centennial of the first “Free-German Youth Day” that took place on the Meissner massif. Anti-Semitic outbursts erupted at the margins of this historical gathering. In its wake, a right-wing populist faction of the youth movement arose for the first time. This collected volume examines the interface between the youth movement, nationalism, and anti-Semitism.

Ein Beitrag zur Kulturgeschichte
In May 1924, the Soncino Society of the Friends of the Jewish Book was founded in Berlin. Named after the Soncinos, a 15th to 16th century Jewish-Italian family of printers, it was the first society of Jewish bibliophiles, and set the goal of publishing rare Jewish books and Hebrew printings. The eight essays in this volume explore the history of the So-ciety and its commitment to Hebrew book culture.

As an intellectual, industrialist, and minister as well as the author of numerous papers and letters, Walther Rathenau was an important figure of his times in business, politics, sociology, and art. The “classical” phase of the modern age in which he lived continues to have reverberations today. This volume examines Rathenau’s positions as well as the modes of remembrance and attribution that have accompanied him ever since his violent death.

die theorie der Zentralen orte in israel und deutschland[The Sharon Plan: Regional Planning in German and Israel after 1933]
Zur Rezeption Walter Christallers im Kontext von Sharonplan und Generalplan Ost
Walter Christaller’s “Central Place Theory” became one of the fundamental concepts in modern plan-ning. Its traces were evident in Israel’s “Sharon Plan” as well as in the National Socialist “Mas-terplan for the East.” Central Place Theory aimed at optimizing the function of economic factors as well as the spatial distribution of the popula-tion. Joachim Trezib examines the reception of this theory and the background for an unexpected parallelism.

The founding of the Reform University of Pietism and Enlightenment in Halle is enshrined in legend. In reality, it served the religious policies of the Ho-henzollern in the 17th century, who favored reform-ists over Lutherans. Halle was the scene of complex inter and intra denominational conflict between pietists, enlightenment philosophers, orthodox Lutherans, and reformists – an impossible place for clearly ascribing denominational identity.

This study brings together two subjects that are enjoying renewed interest among researchers of the early modern era: aristocracy and monarchy. It examines the common idealistic “chivalric” heroic foundations of king and nobleman, as scholars of history have always preferred to view the “knight” among emperors and kings, beset by conflicted orientations to the past and to modernization, as the “last knight.”

naZi crimes against Jews and german Post-war JusticeThe West German Judicial System During Allied Occupation (1945–1949)
While the International Military Tribunal and the subsequent American Military Tribunals at Nuremberg dealt with a variety of Nazi crimes, these courts did not consider themselves cognizant in adjudicating wrongdoings against those who lost German citizenship based on the so-called “Nuremberg laws,” such as Germany’s Jews. Until recently, scholarship failed to explore this task of the German judiciary in more detail. Edith Raim fills this gap by showing the extent of the crimes committed against Jews beyond the traditionally known facts and by elucidating how the West Ger-man administration of justice was reconstructed under Allied supervision.

The Jewish communities of East and Southeast Asia display an impressive diversity. Jonathan Goldstein focuses on transnational Jewish identity in seven of this area’s largest cities: Singapore, Manila, Taipei, Harbin, Shanghai, Rangoon, and Surabaya. He emphasizes five factors which influ-enced the formation of Jewish transnational identity in these places: memory, colonialism, regional nationalism, socialism, and Zionism.

Drawing on hitherto neglected materials, Zohar Segev sheds new light on the policy of the World Jewish Congress (WJC) during the Holocaust. Con-trary to popular belief, he can show that there was an impressive system of previously unknown rescue efforts. Furthermore, in stark contrast to the Zionist movement, WJC leaders strove to establish a Jew-ish state and to rehabilitate Diaspora Jewish life, two goals they saw as mutually complementary.

Over the course of the 19th century, verification of sources became a basic principle of histori-cal research. Daniela Saxer shows how historians began to apply new techniques, such as regesting, editing, and photography. In addition, historians changed their attitude toward sources and adopted a perspective of objectivity. Dissemination of this new self-concept led to the professionalization of the science of history.

In Poland during the Second World War, the German judicial system was part of the National Socialist occupation machine from the outset and became a key element in the policy of “German-ization,” Germany’s principal objective for the annexed portions of Poland. The courts systemati-cally discriminated against Poles, and between Sep-tember 1939 and the beginning of 1945, imposed thousands of death sentences.

Prehistoric mobility and diet in the west eurasian stePPes 3500 to 300 bcAn Isotopic Approach
The West Eurasian steppes in the Eneolithic, the Early Bronze and the Iron Age were largely inhabited by communities believed to show an elevated level of spatial mobility that is often linked to their subsistence economy. Questions concerning the mobility and migration as well as the diet and economy of these communities were approached by applying isotope analysis, resulting in a greater understanding of the lifeways they led.

arbeit im national-soZialismus[Work in National Socialism]
The contributors to this volume submitted to a public review process before publication of the book
Work was a core concept in National Socialism. In pre-war concentration camps, it was a tool for converting prisoners into Volksgenossen, or members of the national community. And during the war, forced labor was crucial to armaments production. “Ability to work” meant life or death for Jews, POWs, and others. The essays in this volume explore the multiple meanings of work as a social, political, and cultural practice in National Socialism.

handbuch P.e.n.[The PEN Handbook: On the History and Organizational Structure of PEN Centers in the German-Speaking World]
Geschichte und Gegenwart der Zentren im deutschsprachigen Raum
Founded in 1921, PEN – which stands for Poets, Essayists, Novelists – is the world‘s largest and best-known association of writers engaged in promoting rights and free expression for writ-ers. This is the first handbook to describe PEN’s organizational structure and history. In addition to basic information about PEN International, this forthcoming publication will focus specifically on German-language PEN centers, with a special emphasis on their history in Germany, from their founding to the present. Amplified by a biblio-graphic index of all members, as well as compre-hensive source material, the handbook will prove a valuable compilation, not only for literary scholars, historians, and PEN members, but also for everyone involved in the world of literature.

Experiencing buildings and spatial constellations is also a perception of atmospheres. Architects, plan-ners, investors, and politicians are obliged to create such effects not merely intuitively or randomly, but according to intersubjective criteria that can be verbalized. This discourse book consists of four, interdisciplinary contributions and forty color il-lustrations. It provides an essential introduction and continuation of this dialogue.

An innovative structural system from concept to construction
Detailed and descriptive, based on photographic accounts of building phases
Enhancing the understanding of advanced architecture
Diagrids are advanced framing systems composed of diagonal steel grids. Developed a decade ago for spectacular buildings like the Swiss Re („the gherkin“) in London, diagrid structures connect a breathtaking appearance with tangible advantages: a massive reduction in material use, a gain of avail-able floor surface area and more flexibility. For the first time, this book gives a comprehensive account of the key aspects of this structural system.

This departure from the practice of historic preservation in the United States is, beyond its value as an actual example, a unique contribu-tion that unfolds in close reference to material.

Volume iii: a galileo forgeryUnmasking the New York Sidereus Nuncius
In this work, historians in various fields revise the results presented in the first two volumes of the series, which analyzed the New York copy of Sid-ereus Nuncius. While many of their findings remain valid, the subject of analysis proved to be a forgery. Volume III describes how the discovery of forgery was made - a watershed moment in the continuing struggle between forgers and those who seek to apprehend them.

The Palazzo Barbarigo has always featured a characteristic façade with a terrace looking out on the Grand Canal. The main façade is located on the Rio di San Polo. This study explains the origin of this unusual architectural hallmark and examines the multi-epochal features of the Palazzo’s interior decoration and the Barbarigo family’s once re-nowned collection of paintings.

chesucristo[Chesus Christ: The Fusion of Che Guevara and Jesus Christ in Images and Texts]
Die Fusion von Che Guevara und Jesus Christus in Bildern und Schriften
Transl. by Martin Steinbrück
After his death, Che Guevara became an idol and was even compared to Jesus Christ. Many images, poems, plays, and films bear witness to this remark-able process, which made studious use of Christian iconography. In this way, Che Guevara became a Christ figure for our times. In order to explain their real affinity, the author examines Jesus as a histori-cal figure and illuminates parallels with Che.

chesucristoThe Fusion in image and word of Che Guevara and Jesus Christ
Che Guevara wurde nach seinem Tod zum Idol verklärt und sogar mit Jesus Christus gleichgesetzt. Zahlreiche Bilder, Gedichte, Theaterstücke und Filme bezeugen diesen Prozess, der sich fleißig traditioneller Motive aus der christlichen Ikonog-raphie bedient. Che Guevara wurde so zu einem Christus unserer Tage. Um zu verdeutlichen, wie nahe sich beide tatsächlich sind, betrachtet der Au-tor im Gegenzug den historischen Jesus und deckt Parallelen auf.

Due to rapid developments in the communication sector, the right to privacy faces new challenges. The increasing digitization and internationalization of communication processes have raised a number of issues, and lead to conflicts wherever national legal systems and moral concepts collide.

higher smoothness in banach sPaces
This book is about the subject of higher smoothness in separable real Banach spaces. It brings together several angles of view on polynomials, both in fi-nite and infinite setting. Also a rather thorough and systematic view of the more recent results, and the authors work is given. The book revolves around two main broad questions: What is the best smooth-ness of a given Banach space, and its structural consequences? How large is a supply of smooth functions in the sense of approximating continuous functions in the uniform topology, i.e. how does the Stone-Weierstrass theorem generalize into infinite dimension where measure and compactness are not available? The subject of infinite dimensional real higher smoothness is treated here for the first time in full detail, therefore this book may also serve as a reference book.

analysis of fracture mechanics in graded materialsTogether with Higher Education Press
Mechanical responses of solid materials are gov-erned by their material properties. The solutions for estimating and predicting the mechanical responses are extremely difficult, in particular for non-homo-geneous materials. Among these, there is a special type of materials whose properties are variable only along one direction, defined as graded materials or functionally graded materials (FGMs). Examples are plant stems and bones. Artificial graded materi-als are widely used in mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, biological engineering, and electronic engineering. This work covers and develops boundary element methods (BEM) to investigate the properties of realistic graded materi-als. This book is a must have for practitioners and researchers in materials science, both academic and in industry.

Examples of general features of glassy materials Theoretical and experimental how the glass-forming process effects the glass properties
Highly important classes of glass-forming systems and how their treatment leads to desired properties
This work demonstrates how general features of glasses and glass transition are exemplified in different classes of glass-forming systems, such as silicate glasses, metallic glasses, and polymers. In addition, the wide field of phase formation process-es and their effect on glasses and their properties is studied both from theoretical and experimental points of view.

new technologies for managing labornew series
The book reviews new technologies and devices aimed to improve labor management and outcomes. These diverge between looking at a better way to use fetal heart rate monitors (that are used in 90% of labours); using new monitors to detect the 1% of babies that are damaged in labour and account for 99% of the medico-legal costs in labor; and early detection of non-progressive labors that com-plicate 30-50% of labours. This is the only book about all these technologies from the perspectives of new devices and technologies in labor.

test digitaler schaltkreise[Testing Digital Circuits]
Embedded systems are assuming key control functions in everyday life. Systemic failure in the energy supply or the transport sector could lead to fatal consequences. Users place great reliance on the error-free function of such systems. Guarantee-ing the functional capability of digital circuits is the goal of testing – and this aim must be achieved at low cost, since every chip has to be tested sepa-rately after production.

data mining
One of the first German textbooks on data mining – with numerous examples and practice exercises.
The mountains of data in modern databases conceal undiscovered knowledge that can only be brought to light with the right tools. Data Mining seeks to provide methods and algorithms to uncover previ-ously unknown connections. The book covers the material in a one-semester university or technical college course on data mining and is conceived as a classical textbook. It includes summaries, numer-ous examples, and practice exercises.

ideologie[Ideology]
the rePercussions of ideology
This book project is distinguished from previous works by its practical impetus. It covers the history of the concept of ideology, and shows how ideology can be disseminated through patterns of speech and its effects upon the meta-network we call “society.” In this way, the concept of ideology, typically dealt with theoretically, can become transformed into a processing system for extremist tendencies.

The international creation of typefaces after 1950 was decisively influenced by the Swiss type designer Adrian Frutiger. His Univers typeface and the machine-reada-ble font OCR-B, which was adopted as an ISO standard, are milestones, as is his type for the Paris airports, which set new standards for signage types and evolved into the Frutiger typeface. With his corporate types, he helped to define the public profiles of companies such as the Japanese Shiseido line of cosmetics. In all he created some fifty types, including Ondine, Méridien, Avenir, and Vectora.
Based on conversations with Frutiger himself and on extensive research in France, England, Germany, and Switzerland, this publication provides a highly detailed and accurate account of the type designer’s artistic development.
All of his types – from the design phase to the market-ing stage – are illustrated and analyzed with reference to the technology and related types. Hitherto unpub-lished types that were never realized and more than one hundred logos complete the picture.
Now available as a study edition: the reference work on Frutiger‘s accomplishments
Extensive image material and detailed background information on the typeface canon of the Swiss designer
