Overview: The Romantics invented Shakespeare studies, and in losing contact with our origins, we have not been able to develop an adequate alternative foundation on which to build our work.  This book asserts that among Shakespeareans at present, the level of conviction required to sustain a healthy critical practice is problematically if not dangerously low, and the qualities which the Romantics valued in an engagement with Shakespeare are either ignored these days or fundamentally misunderstood.978-1-349-29581-4978-0-230-11936-9

Overview: Die Wege in die „Informationsgesellschaft“ der 1990er Jahre in den USA und in Deutschland waren nicht nur höchst unterschiedlich, was ihre staatliche Initi- rung und die flankierenden Maßnahmen betraf, sie variierten auch in den L- dern zwischen verschiedenen Sektoren. In einem von der Volkswagen Stiftung von 1997-2000 geförderten Forschungsprojekt sind wir der Frage nachgegangen, welche Unterschiede und Gemeinsamkeiten sich zwischen den beiden Ländern als auch in den Bereichen Schulen, öffentliche Verwaltung und Unterhaltungs- dustrie in Bezug auf die staatlichen Programme zur Förde

Overview: Presents an interdiscliplinary view of school shootings, highlighting both complementary opinions and controversies.Examines the response to and influence on school shootings by the media.Presents newSchool shootings are a topic of research in a variety of different disciplines—from psychology, to sociology to criminology, pedagogy, and public health—each with their own set of theories. Many of these theories are logically interconnected, while some differ widely and seem incompatible with each other, leading to divergent results about potential means of prevention. In this innovativ

Overview: Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfängen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen für die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfügung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden müssen. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.978-3-642-50476-1978-3-642-50785-4

Overview: Eine sozialwissenschaftliche Studie.Rasant verbreitet sich im Zuge der Digitalisierung der Wille, alltägliches Geschehen nicht nur im Spektrum der Worte, sondern in Form von Zahlen zu dokumentieren. Im Kontext von Diabetes und Quantified Self analysiert Lisa Wiedemann in dieser Studie das sogenannte Self-Tracking als medizinisch indizierte und als „selbstinitiierte“ Praxis. Dabei werden die Vermessungspraktiken empirisch als veralltäglichte, selbstbezogene und verkörperte Praxis in den Blick genommen. Zur Diskussion steht, wie Self-Tracking in den Alltag übersetzt und in Interaktivit

Overview: Uses the life and work of the state official and historian Michael Attaleiates to examine Byzantine bureaucracy and culture in the eleventh century.Explores the links between various classes and insti.This book is a microhistory of eleventh-century Byzantium, built around the biography of the state official Michael Attaleiates. Dimitris Krallis presents Byzantium as a cohesive, ever-evolving, dynamic, Roman political community, built on traditions of Roman governance and Hellenic culture. In the eleventh century, Byzantium faced a crisis as it navigated a shifting international envir

Overview: Die Standorte der Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaften in Deutschland als ein Spiegel der deutschen Wirtschaft? Auf den ersten Blick scheinen Wirtschaftsprüfung, respektive Wirtschaftsprüfungs­ gesellschaften, und Wirtschaftsgeographie nicht sonderlich viele Berührungspunkte zu haben. Dies mag prospektive Leser des vorliegenden Bandes etwas verwirren. Doch sind Standorte wirtschaftlicher Einrichtungen ja der geographische Nieder­ schlag vielfältiger, wenn auch zum Teil nur flüchtiger Verflechtungen. Wir wissen, daß Standorte nicht immer nur die aktuellen Bezugsfelder der Akteure spiegel
