    Pynchon and Philosophy radically reworks our readings of Thomas Pynchon alongside the theoretical perspectives of Wittgenstein, Foucault and Adorno. Rigorous yet readable, Pynchon and Philosophy seeks to recover philosophical readings of Pynchon that work harmoniously, rather than antagonistically, resulting in a wholly fresh approach. Dr. Martin Paul Eve is a lecturer in literature at the University of Lincoln, UK. In addition to editing the open access journal of Pynchon Studies, Orbit, he has work published or forthcoming in Textual Practise, Neo-Victorian Studies, C21, Pynchon Notes and several edited collections.

    This fourth title in the series The Key Debates sets out where the term techne comes from, how it unleashed a revolution in thought and how the concept in the midst of the current digital revolution, once again, is influencing the study of film. In addition, the authors - among them André Gaudreault, Geoffrey Wintrop-Young, Martin Lefevbre, Dominique Chateau, Nanna Verhoeff, Andreas Fickers and Ian Christie - investigate how technologies have affected the major debates about film, how they affected film theory and some of its key concepts. This is one of the rare books to assess the comprehensive history of the philosophies of technology and their impact on film and media theory in greater detail.

  3. The conservation of panel paintings and related objects : Research agenda 2014 -2020

    Until the early 17th century almost all portable paintings were created on wood

    supports, including masterpieces by famous painters, ranging from Giotto to Dürer

    to Rembrandt. The structural conservation of these paintings requires specific

    knowledge and skills as the supports are susceptible to damage caused by unstable

    environmental conditions.

    Unfortunately, past structural interventions often caused significant damage due

    to insufficient knowledge of the behaviour of the wood panels, glue and paint

    layers. Over the last fifty years, the field has developed treatment strategies based

    on interdisciplinary collaboration and on the knowledge of specialist conservators.

    Most current conservation protocols rely on empirical knowledge of conservators

    and are not necessarily based on a scientific understanding of the nature and

    behaviour of wood and paint layers.

    In order to move the field forward, it is imperative to strengthen scientific research

    into the production methods, ageing and future behaviour of panel paintings,

    being an intricate interplay between different materials. A deeper understanding of

    the processes that adversely affect panel paintings over time will contribute to the

    improved care and conservation of these artworks.

    The Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) and the Rijksmuseum

    Amsterdam brought together a group of experts from different disciplines to

    recommend specific areas in the field that would benefit from systematic research.

    The experts concluded that targeted interdisciplinary research projects are key to

    understanding the behaviour of panel paintings and help conservators make better

    informed decisions. Research into chemical and physical properties of wood, glue

    and paint layers should be combined with an evaluation of past and current

    conservation treatments. Research should also consider the history of the object,

    studio practice, conservation history and thoughts on long-term impact of

    treatments.

    In the audience, art and society overlap. It is the place where aesthetic practice becomes public in a society and where political issues in artistic staging become visible and negotiable. This volume poses the question of the aesthetics of the public and the public of the arts. He collects contributions from art history, political philosophy as well as film, theater and media studies and seeks formations of the common in historical and contemporary artistic productions, processes and modes of reception. Im Publikum überlagern sich Kunst und Gesellschaft. Es ist der Ort, an dem ästhetische Praxis in einer Gesellschaft öffentlich wird und an dem politische Fragen in künstlerischer Inszenierung sichtbar und verhandelbar werden. Dieser Band stellt die Frage nach einer Ästhetik des Öffentlichen und den Öffentlichkeiten der Künste. Er versammelt Beiträge aus der Kunstgeschichte, der politischen Philosophie sowie der Film-, Theater- und Medienwissenschaft und sucht Formationen des Gemeinsamen in historischen und gegenwärtigen künstlerischen Produktionen, Prozessen sowie Rezeptionsweisen.

    Gottsched spent several months in Dresden while representing Leipzig University at Saxony’s parliament. His correspondence lends insight to the events unfolding there and documents his interactions with his circle of acquaintances in Leipzig, whom he normally saw in person. Major topics in the correspondence include the theater, the War of Austrian Succession, and disagreements with Gottsched’s critics Bodmer and Breitinger in Zurich.

    The consequences of Englishes spread have become increasingly clear to its diverse speakers. Sometimes associated with a standardization leading to homogenization, often also with imperialism, English is increasingly understood to have no necessary connection with any country or group of countries. The willingness to accept that English has become Englishes might be less evident among so-called native speakers, but their authority is weaker than it seemed. This book puts examples from World Englishes into dialogue with postcolonial studies. The dialogue will correct misconceptions and misapprehensions in postcolonial studies, with World Englishes offering renewal for postcolonial studies. At the same time, the dialogue will also apply postcolonial studies' political and philosophical ideas to World Englishes, resulting in a postcolonial perspective on English today.

    It’s a platitude – which only a philosopher would dream of denying – that whereas words are connected to what they represent merely by arbitrary conventions, pictures are connected to what they represent by resemblance. The most important difference between my portrait and my name, for example, is that whereas my portrait and I are connected by my portrait’s resemblance to me, my name and I are connected merely by an arbitrary convention. The first aim of this book is to defend this platitude from the apparently compelling objections raised against it, by analysing depiction in a way which reveals how it is mediated by resemblance. It’s natural to contrast the platitude that depiction is mediated by resemblance, which emphasises the differences between depictive and descriptive representation, with an extremely close analogy between depiction and description, which emphasises the similarities between depictive and descriptive representation. Whereas the platitude emphasises that the connection between my portrait and me is natural in a way the connection between my name and me is not, the analogy emphasises the contingency of the connection between my portrait and me. Nevertheless, the second aim of this book is to defend an extremely close analogy between depiction and description. The strategy of the book is to argue that the apparently compelling objections raised against the platitude that depiction is mediated by resemblance are manifestations of more general problems, which are familiar from the philosophy of language. These problems, it argues, can be resolved by answers analogous to their counterparts in the philosophy of language, without rejecting the platitude. So the combination of the platitude that depiction is mediated by resemblance with a close analogy between depiction and description turns out to be a compelling theory of depiction, which combines the virtues of common sense with the insights of its detractors.

    This collection of essays approaches the study of space and place from a historically inclusive perspective; it gives new insights into historical shifts and changes in the construction and perception of space as well as historical developments and diachonicity of literary, social, and architectural sites and places. It aims to gather a number of case studies in order to collect historically concrete evidence of such spatial practices as reflected in literature and art as well as in sources pertaining to the social and political life of premodern, early modern, and modern era.

    The book offers an interdisciplinary but very grounded look at the question of memory politics in contemporary Poland. It describes the conflicting ways in which two groups of people – the former anti-communist activists and the former officers of the repressive regime – have actively engaged in representations and claims about the communist past in the contemporary reality of one Polish town. The material is based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted during the years 2006-2008. The author focuses on the processes of reconstruction of memories and subjectivities taking place at the intersection of individuals, civic society, state bureaucracy and politics. The book focuses on the beliefs, hopes and fears of people who became the subjects of historical policy during their lifetimes.

    This monograph traces the development of the designs and techniques used in the production of ironwork in England from roughly AD 1050 to AD 1500. Found mostly on church doors, chests and tombs, in the form of hinges, handles, knockers or grilles the ironwork of this period is a virtually unexplored aspect of medieval art, and has proved to be a rich source of evidence for design and craft skills.

    Despite their rich tradition, the Carmina Anacreontea transmitted in the Palatine Anthology have received little scholarly attention. This neglect is linked to questions concerning their authenticity. Long read as poems by the ancient lyricist Anacreon, they are now regarded instead as imitations of Anacreontic lyricism. This volume presents the latest findings on the language, poetology, tradition, and reception of this lyrical collection.

    Plato in the Third Sophistic examines the influence and impact of Plato and Platonism in the era of Byzantine and Christian rhetoric. The volume brings together articles from leading scholars of late antique philosophy and literature. Their examinations show that Plato is the single most important and influential literary figure used to frame the literature of this time.

    The discovery of the two inherited susceptibility genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 in the mid-1990s created the possibility of predictive genetic testing and led to the establishment of specific medical programmes for those at high risk of developing breast cancer in the UK, US and Europe. The book provides a coherent structure for examining the diversity of practices and discourses that surround developments linked to BRCA genetics, and to the evolving field of genetics more broadly. It will be of interest to students and scholars of anthropology, sociology, history of science, STS, public health and bioethics.

    Archaeological research and ancient records have been combined in this work to provide a comprehensive account of the buildings of Merv, an oasis city in the middle of the Turkmenistani desert. Founded in the sixth century BC, Merv was a key staging post along the Central Asian trade routes linking Europe and India, and its buildings - palaces, pavilions, gardens and towers springing from the sand - impressed all who visited it. Although eroded by time and weather, enough remains of these buildings to illustrate the evolution of architectural styles in the early medieval and Seljuk eras (7th to 13th cents AD), a period during which the Islamic world developed its own unique range of building types and decorative motifs. This book examines in detail each of the surviving buildings of Merv, discussing their form and function – from palaces to ice-houses, from fortified watch-towers to libraries and dovecotes. Details of doors, windows, corridors and stairways, monumental entrances, rooms, domes and vaults, niches, wall decoration and flooring are described and illustrated in great detail. The book will serve as a major resource for scholars of Islamic architecture.

    Although the objective of the Monumental Brass Society is to promote the study both of monumental brasses and of incised slabs, research on the two media has proceeded along separate and largely independent lines. This is the first work to combine the stylistic analysis of monumental brasses with incised slabs. Like brasses, incised slabs are susceptible to stylistic analysis to identify workshop groupings. This book identifies existing and recorded Purbeck marble incised slabs from the pre-Black Death London workshops and compares their designs with those of contemporary brasses. The result is a fuller picture than has previously been available of the operations of the London marblers before the Black Death. It suggests that in the late thirteenth century production was on a larger scale than previously believed, and evidence is outlined for the existence of multiple workshops producing brasses and incised slabs in London for much of the period covered by this study.

    The notion of fans as hysterical teenagers, aggressive hooligans or nerdy loners has changed drastically. Whereas Trekkies, live-action role-players or Gothics were still viewed critically a few years ago, today everyone debates the »Hobbit« movies or the new »Sherlock« season and can buy their Ramones shirt at the discount store. Thanks to the Internet, fans have not only arrived in the mainstream, but have also become more mature and creative. For a long time now, they have not only devoted themselves to the adoration of their favorite characters and idols, they have also conquered a place in pop culture for themselves and their creative output. This volume brings together contributions from various disciplines on a multifaceted spectrum of fandoms, fan cultures, and fan creations in the German-speaking world: from soccer stadiums to online forums, from cosplayers to vidders, from Prince to »Twilight«. Die Vorstellungen von Fans als hysterischen Teenies, aggressiven Hooligans oder nerdigen Einzelgängern haben sich drastisch gewandelt. Wurden Trekkies, Live-Rollenspieler oder Gothics vor einigen Jahren noch kritisch beäugt, debattiert heute jeder über die »Hobbit«-Filme oder die neue »Sherlock«-Staffel und kann sein Ramones-Shirt beim Discounter kaufen. Durch das Internet sind Fans nicht nur im Mainstream angekommen, sondern mündiger und kreativer geworden. Längst geben sie sich nicht mehr nur der Verehrung ihrer Lieblingsfiguren und Idole hin, sie erobern auch für sich selbst und ihren kreativen Output einen Platz in der Popkultur. Der vorliegende Band versammelt Beiträge aus verschiedenen Disziplinen zu einem facettenreichen Spektrum von Fandoms, Fankulturen und Fankreationen im deutschsprachigen Raum: vom Fußballstadion bis ins Onlineforum, von Cosplayern zu Viddern, von Prince bis »Twilight«.

    The focus of the present work is a semiotic analysis of the meaning generation in the picture theater, a stage form that decisively shaped the Polish theater of the last 40 years, which unmistakably draws its innovation and creativity potential from the fine arts, so that the desperate critics and spectators - in the case their most radical variants with their renunciation of the word and a strong repression of the actor - ask the question whether, strictly speaking, this is still a theater, or even a paratheatrical action in the field of visual arts Im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit steht eine semiotische Analyse der Bedeutungsgenerierung im Bildertheater, einer das polnische Theater der letzten 40 Jahre entscheidend prägenden Bühnenform, die ihr Innovations- und Kreativitätspotential unverkennbar aus der Bildenden Kunst schöpft, so daß sich die verzweifelten Kritiker und Zuschauer - im Falle ihrer radikalsten Varianten mit ihrem Verzicht auf das Wort und einer starken Zurückdrängung des Schauspielers - die Frage stellen, ob es sich - streng genommen - hierbei noch um Theater, oder schon um eine paratheatrale Aktion aus dem Bereich der Bildenden Kunst handelt

    In the present study the first chapter deals with the biography of Chvyl'ovyj's open and controversially discussed questions. Against this background, a biographical sketch of its own arises through the critical comparison of previously published biographical material. The following chapter on Chvyl'ovyj's journalism will be preceded by an outline of literary politics in Ukraine in the 1920s. This section, which is supplemented with corresponding passages in the biography, presents in a cross-section the representatives and programs of the Ukrainian literary associations and the course of the literary discussion, with emphasis on Chvyl'ovyj's activities. This background is crucial for the understanding of Chvyl'ovyj's journalism, which is also examined in the third chapter from the perspective of Spengler reception. In der vorliegenden Studie wird im ersten Kapitel im Zusammenhang mit der Biographie Chvyl'ovyjs offenen und in bisherigen Darstellungen kontrovers diskutierten Fragen nachgegangen. Vor diesem Hintergrund entsteht durch den kritischen Vergleich bisher publizierter biographischer Materialien eine eigene biographische Skizze. Dem nachfolgenden Kapitel über Chvyl'ovyjs Publizistik wird ein Abriß der Literaturpolitik in der Ukraine der 20er Jahre vorausgeschickt. Dieser Teil, der sich mit entsprechenden Passagen in der Biographie ergänzt, stellt in einem Querschnitt die Vertreter und Programme der ukrainischen Literaturvereinigungen und den Verlauf der Literaturdiskussion dar, wobei der Schwerpunkt bei Chvyl'ovyjs Aktivitäten liegt. Dieser Hintergrund ist maßgeblich zum Verständnis der Publizistik Chvyl'ovyjs, die auch im dritten Kapitel unter dem speziellen Blickwinkel der Spengler-Rezeption untersucht wird.

    After the Russian President Mikhail Gorbačev initiated the era of Perestroika and Glasnost and thus made the archives accessible again, it was finally possible to reprint those texts that had been withheld from the public as a cultural heritage for so long, such as: the texts of the Russian religious philosophers and symbolists, which are the subject of the present work. For the first time in almost seven decades, the Russians were once again able to buy books by Vladimir Solov'ev, Vassilij Rozanov, Nikolai Berdjaev, Dmitri Merezkovsky, Zinaida Gippius - to name but a few - in their bookstores. Today, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, these texts are unexpectedly up-to-date, as they already discuss conditions for reforming the Russian state based on concepts of a new gender ethic and gender aesthetics. Nachdem der russische Präsident Michail Gorbačev die Ära Perestrojka und Glasnost' eingeleitet und damit auch wieder die Archive zugänglich gemacht hatte, konnten endlich jene Texte wieder gedruckt werden, die als kulturelles Erbe der Öffentlichkeit solange vorenthalten worden waren, wie z.B. die Texte der russischen Religionsphilosophen und Symbolisten, um die es in der vorliegenden Arbeit geht. Zum ersten Mal nach fast sieben Jahrzehnten konnten die Russen in ihren Buchhandlungen wieder Bücher von Vladimir Solov'ev, Vassilij Rozanov, Nikolaj Berdjaev, Dmitrij Merežkovskij, Zinaida Gippius' - um nur ein paar Namen zu nennen - kaufen. Heute, nach dem Zerfall der Sowjetunion, erfreuen sich diese Texte einer unerwarteten Aktualität, werden doch darin bereits Voraussetzungen zur Reformierung des russischen Staates diskutiert, die auf Konzepten einer neuen Geschlechter-Ethik und Geschlechts-Ästhetik aufbauen.

    In examining the subject and his relation to the objects, it can be seen that Andrei Voznesensky's official poetry of the late 1950s and early 1960s contains postmodern elements; indeed, because it is unconsciously postmodern, it far exceeds the original conception of French philosophy from "postmodernism" corresponds to the so-called Russian Neoavantgarde. The aim of this work, to comprehensively and closely examine the relationship between subject and object in Voznesensky, and the comparative approach require that one limit oneself to exemplary analyzes. For this purpose, six poems were selected that are meaningful in relation to the subject. Bei der Untersuchung des Subjekts und seinem Verhältnis zu den Objekten zeigt sich, daß bereits Andrej Voznesenskijs offizielle Lyrik der späten 50er und frühen 60er Jahre postmoderne Elemente enthält, ja daß sie, da sie unbewußt postmodern ist, sogar weit mehr der ursprünglichen Auffassung der französischen Philosophie von "Postmoderne" entspricht als die sogenannte russische Neoavantgarde. Die Zielsetzung dieser Arbeit, umfassend und textnah das Verhältnis zwischen Subjekt und Objekt bei Voznesenskij zu untersuchen, und die komparatistische Vorgehensweise erfordern es, sich auf exemplarische Analysen zu beschränken. Dazu wurden sechs Gedichte ausgewählt, die in bezug auf das Subjekt aussagekräftig sind.

    The comparative analysis of the Ady poem "Sírni, sírni, sírni" and the Krleža poem "Tužaljka nad crkvom" convincingly proves the paraphrasic character of the latter and thus the creative reception of the poem of Ady. With the comparative investigation of the motif world and the linguistic archaisms of Ady and Krleža, the facts of the Ady reception, which are everywhere present in the Kerempuh ballads, are made visible. Durch die komparatistische Untersuchung des Ady-Gedichtes "Sírni, sírni, sírni" und des Krleža-Gedichtes "Tužaljka nad crkvom" kann man den Paraphrasencharakter des letzteren und damit die kreative Rezeption des Ady-Gedichtes überzeugend beweisen. Mit der komparatistischen Untersuchung der Motivwelt und der sprachlichen Archaismen Adys und Krležas sind die in den Kerempuh-Balladen überall vorhandenen Tatsachen der Ady-Rezeption sichtbar gemacht.

    The study centers on the presentation of the North American borderlands in the works of Canadian Native writer Thomas King’s Truth & Bright Water (1999), American writer Howard Frank Mosher’s On Kingdom Mountain (2007), and American writer Jim Lynch’s Border Songs (2009). The three authors describe the peoples and places in the northeastern, middle and northwestern border regions of the USA and Canada. The novels address important border-oriented aspects such as indigeneity, the borderlands as historic territory and as utopian space, border crossing and transcendence, post-9/11 security issues, social interaction along the border, and gender specifics. The interpretation also examines the meaning of border imaginaries, border conceptualizations, and the theme of resistance and subversion.

    »Ending Slavery« offers insights into the »how« of practices of slavery that persist in parts of Mauritania up to the present day. It brings to the light the gendered structures of Moorish slavery, and examines their impact on strategies and tactics designed to bring this institution to an end. Underlying this study is empirical data gathered during two periods of field research in rural central Mauritania. The analysis of life histories of slaves and freed slaves, but also of tributaries and free Moors plays a key role in the book.
