Als angehender Sprachkünstler studierte er nicht Literaturwissenschaft an der Universität Kopenhagen, sondern auf einer praktischen Bildungsreise als Stipendiat acht Semester lang in mehreren Zentren Europas: Halle, Weimar, Coppet, Rom, Paris und Berlin, wo er die besten seiner Dramen auf Dänisch und auf Deutsch schrieb, vorlas und zur Veröffentlichung vorbereitete. Seine Zuhörer waren Steffens, Schleiermacher, Goethe, Madame de Staël, die Gebrüder Schlegel und andere deutsche Dichter. Es wird ein Gattungsdiskurs seiner Schriften in Gang gesetzt und Oehlenschlägers Ästhetik der Kraft, die sich in Anlehnung an Hans Christian Ørsted und Bertel Thorvaldsen ausgebildet hat, vorgeführt. 117 pp. Deutsch.

Derzeit kann die installierte Nennleistung aller durch Windkraft erzeugten Energie jedoch erst 20% der Nachfrage abdecken. Umfangreiche Investitionen sowohl in Anlagen zur Gewinnung von Strom aus erneuerbaren Energien als auch in konventionelle Kraftwerke sind demnach erforderlich. Ebenso sind der umfassende Ausbau der Netze sowie die Umstellung auf das smart metering hierfür integrale Bestandteile. Unter welchen Voraussetzungen private Investitionen in neue Kraftwerke zu erwarten sind, ist eine zentrale Fragestellung im Rahmen der Energiewende, die durch diesen Tagungsband sowohl von rechtlicher und technischer als auch ökonomischer Seite erörtert wird. 129 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Le voyage est très souvent l'occasion d'un passage à l'écriture pour le peintre, qui tient un journal, rédige des lettres, envoie des correspondances à un périodique ou jette sur le papier des notes accompagnées de croquis. Comme si le déplacement, le décentrement, la confrontation avec l'Autre engageait l'artiste à explorer d'autres ressources expressives pour dire l'expérience de l'inconnu. Quitter son lieu d'origine, abandonner temporairement son identité sociale, laisser derrière soi ses certitudes et ses routines pour se confronter à l'ailleurs génère un dépaysement qui invite à une réflexion sur soi et sur sa pratique.Itinéraires, destinations, choses vues, sensations inédites : lire des récits de voyage, c'est se préparer à des surprises. L'avantage que nous avons, lecteurs actuels des écrits des artistes du passé en voyage, c'est de connaître ces moments privilégiés à travers leur écriture. Double profit : découvrir des lieux, des instants, des dizaines de petites et grandes choses de ' l'ailleurs ', et découvrir l'écriture qui les a transmis. Les surprises viennent non seulement des premiers, racontés, décrits, évoqués, mais aussi de ces écrits, généralement peu banals. Le présent ouvrage revient sur quelques peintres-écrivains marquants des deux siècles passés, mais aussi sur leurs ' héritiers ' - des auteurs de bande dessinée - pour porter des éclairages nouveaux sur leurs ' écrits viatiques ', mais il propose en plus de nouveaux et nombreux documents, et oriente vers d'autres encore inédits, en particulier dans les domaines francophones, belge et français. 223 pp. Französisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book has received the AESA (American Educational Studies Association) Critics Choice Award 2012. This book introduces a progressive type of education called Critical Aesthetic Pedagogy. This pedagogy utilizes the arts to promote critical learning, and incorporates particular types of aesthetic experiences into pedagogical practices to increase students' social empowerment and commitment to social justice. The first coherent body of work that marries critical pedagogy and aesthetics, the book guides theory and practice for teacher educators interested in infusing their critical pedagogical practices with the arts. It also proposes tangible reforms in the public school system that will enable a critical aesthetic process to take root and thrive. Critical Aesthetic Pedagogy can be used in upper-level undergraduate and graduate teacher education and art education courses. It can also help P-12 teachers and art organizations to successfully develop and carry out critical aesthetic practices at all levels. In addition, it provides a rationale for school administrators, community leaders, and educational policymakers for embracing critical aesthetic practices as a way to improve the education of all children. 150 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book has won the 2014 Qualitative Book Award In the context of debates about U.S. immigration, this book gives a voice to undocumented Americans of Mexican origin - specifically, involuntary immigrants born in Mexico but brought to the United States by their parents as minors. They are indistinguishable from other Americans, yet in the media and their everyday lives they encounter racism, discrimination, ostracism, and castigation on a regular basis. This book is about their stories and how, against the odds, they offer resistance as they navigate across ideological, historical, socio-economic, institutional and educational borders, in an effort to carve out a life in U.S. society. In constructing an evocative and powerful counter-narrative the authors show how they ultimately worked with artists of Mexican origin and community organizations to bring the undocumented issue to performative and political life. 280 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Hope for Audacity: From Cynicism to Hope in Educational Leadership and Policy is authored by educators who feel compelled to make their voices heard - fueled by their passion for authentic learning, their vision for the future of education, and their deep concern with the nurturing of our democracy, which they believe is being endangered by market-logic decisions in educational policy. This book is a thoughtful affirmation of the very tenets of President Obama's hopeful vision for this nation, not mere empty or cynical critique of his policies. However, the book also challenges him to examine the contradictions in his stated philosophy and policies. The book is a plea to translate his beliefs into political action and to, thus, transform hope into reality. Ultimately, the authors express their genuine commitment and eagerness to work hand in hand with President Obama in educational reform and to attain his vision of «Yes, we can.» 216 pp. Englisch.

In this book, the authors consider games and just as importantly, the social interactions around games, not in terms of how they should be managed or incorporated into existing educational structures, but for what they tell us about the forms of learning and literacy that are already instantiated within the use of these media. To this end, this book delves deeply into James Paul Gee's (2004) productive and influential concept of the affinity space - the physical or virtual locations (or some combination of the two) where people come together around a shared interest or 'affinity.' By explicating how and why engaged fans of digital media do what they do in online spaces, the authors cast a light, as Gee did, on the promise of these media and the problems facing current educational systems. 262 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Mirrors of the Mind uses East Asian epistemology and cultural concepts as new conceptual tools to address fundamental questions that educators encounter. The book invites readers to critically reflect on commonly held assumptions about learning, cognition, motivation, development, and other essential areas of educational psychology and learning sciences and, with East Asian epistemology as an underlying theme, examines what it takes to improve educational practices. The book first introduces key issues and controversies in learning sciences, then discusses how to advance our understanding of learning and educational practices through a cross-cultural lens. This book challenges readers to critically examine their own assumptions, and to move beyond the limitations of the Western ways of thinking that have predominantly permeated the field. It will help readers develop new and mindful ways of thinking for improving educational practices. Designed to accompany or replace traditional textbooks in educational psychology, educational foundations, cognition and learning, human development, and other related fields, this book will be useful to educators and anyone seeking new, non-traditional ways of approaching learning and educational practices. 186 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book won the 2014 CCCC (Conference on College Composition and Communication) Outstanding Book Award - Edited Collection Race and Writing Assessment brings together established and up-and-coming scholars in composition studies to explore how writing assessments needs to change in order to account for the increasing diversity of students in college classrooms today. Contributors identify where we have ignored race in our writing assessment approaches and explore issues related to assessment technologies, faculty and student responses to assessment, institutional responses to writing assessment, and context for assessing writing beyond composition programs. Balancing practical advice and theoretical discussions, Race and Writing Assessment provides a variety of models, frameworks, and research methods to consider writing assessment approaches that are sensitive to the linguistic and cultural identities that diverse students bring to writing classrooms. This book illustrates that this is no one-size-fits-all model for addressing diversity in assessment practice but that assessment practices attuned to racial diversity must be rooted in the contexts in which they are found. In doing so, Race and Writing Assessment enriches contemporary research on contextualized approaches to writing assessment. 244 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The 2003 war against Iraq was not the first instance of a president taking the nation into foreign conflict assisted by a submissive Congress and national press corps that did not adequately challenge the case for intervention. All foreign U.S. military action since World War II has been undertaken without the constitutionally required declaration of war, and with the support of the national press corps. Factors behind this press complicity - which is at odds with the traditional press role of watchdog over government policies - include political, economic, and national security ideologies the press shares with administration and government officials - the same sources upon whom the press relies for credible information. Sending troops to fight in foreign lands is the most difficult, and most important, decision a president can make. Assisting this decision has been a press that, in failing to meet its watchdog responsibility during this key pre-war period, has instead helped construct and maintain a war agenda. With a comprehensive overview of all conflicts from the Korean War to intervention in Libya, this book examines the supportive relationship of press to power in building a conflict rationale during the vital period leading up to combat. 312 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Since the mid-1960s, Western public opinion has focused on the issue of human rights violations in the Soviet bloc, which has been a matter for increasing concern. Growing Dissent in Eastern European countries and the CSCE process compelled the Left in Western Europe to face the contradictions and inconsistencies of the communist countries. This issue became a key topic in domestic political debate in France - a country of freedom by definition - where many Eastern European émigrés established themselves. In this book, Dissent is used as a prism through which to study relations between the Parti Communiste and the Parti Socialiste in France, and Eastern European governments. The main focus is the political confrontation between the two main parties of the French Left - from the union de la gauche to their cohabitation in government in the early 1980s. The study is based on wide-reaching research using primary archive documents, as well as press analyses and interviews, mainly in France and Italy, but also in the United Kingdom, the United States, Spain and the Netherlands. The book examines international relations, domestic policies and cultural history to paint a complex picture of the fight for leadership of the French Left during the 1970s. 210 pp. Englisch.

The author takes a look at how postmodernism arrived in the Estonian literary culture and how it took root there, both on a theoretical level and in cultural practices. Obvious parallels emerge with radical cultural changes in post-socialist East-European countries in the early 1990s, which were caused by social transformations. Examples of Estonian postmodernist literary texts are analysed, following the manifestations of postmodernism from the 1950s until the beginning of the 21 st century; the book also tackles ethnofuturism, popular and digital literature, and introduces a universal model which enables to determine postmodernist texts in literature. 152 pp. Englisch.

Er geht vertiefend auf die Entwicklung der Theorien der juristischen Person und der Gesamthand ein. Die bisher für und gegen die Beibehaltung der Unterscheidung vorgebrachten Argumente werden dabei in aller Ausführlichkeit kritisch analysiert. Der Verfasser kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass alle rechtsfähigen gesellschaftsrechtlichen Verbände entgegen der bisherigen Annahme zu juristischen Personen zu erklären sind. 140 pp. Deutsch.

Since the 1970s, cultivation analysis has been a lens through which to examine television's contributions to conceptions of violence, sex roles, political attitudes and numerous other phenomena. Hundreds of studies during this time have (mostly) found that there are relationships between television exposure and people's worldviews, but important questions remain: just how big are these relationships, are they real, are some people more vulnerable to them than others, do they vary across different topics, and will we continue to find them in new media environments In this collection of nineteen chapters, leading scholars review and assess the most significant developments in cultivation research in the past ten years. The book highlights cutting-edge research related to these questions and surveys important recent advances in this evolving body of work. The contributors point us toward new directions and fresh challenges for cultivation theory and research in the future. 448 pp. Englisch.

Robin DiAngelo argues that a number of factors make this question difficult for whites miseducation about what racism is; ideologies such as individualism and colorblindness; defensiveness; and a need to protect (rather than expand) our worldviews. These factors contribute to what she terms white racial illiteracy. Speaking as a white person to other white people, Dr. DiAngelo clearly and compellingly takes readers through an analysis of white socialization. She describes how race shapes the lives of white people, explains what makes racism so hard for whites to see, identifies common white racial patterns, and speaks back to popular white narratives that work to deny racism. Written as an accessible introduction to white identity from an anti-racist framework, What Does It Mean To Be White is an invaluable resource for members of diversity and anti-racism programs and study groups and students of sociology, psychology, education, and other disciplines. 342 pp. Englisch.

The main objective of this field-study is to contribute an effort to the culture of discussion and problem-solving culture of society. The research constructs a healthy relationship chain: welcoming, touch, communication, conversation, cooperation. This book is a pioneering 'roadmap', which leads the readers to go beyond their own confinement and to see matters more humanistic and truthfully. This project is based on simulations and hermeneutic analysis. In these simulations the human values and features have been applied as research indicators. These indicators are: beliefs, emotions, love, religion, death, sleep, birth, eating, sex, disease, conflict issues, confidence, frustration, identity, language, home, strangers, poverty, wealth and so on. For that reason, the method of this case-study is inventive and pioneering. Ultimately, the goal of this work is to tell the truth as it really is. The book is particularly relevant for Neuroeconomics and Behavioral-scientists. 178 pp. Englisch.

Chaque collection a son histoire, chaque institution a dû faire face à diverses difficultés. Dans cette mission, la technologie peut contribuer à approfondir la mémoire du spectacle et à élargir virtuellement à l'infini les espaces qui l'accueillent. Le congrès de la SIBMAS qui s'est tenu à Rome en 2002 témoignait d'une étape dans la réflexion suscitée par l'utilisation des nouvelles technologies dans les bibliothèques et les centres d'archives. Cet ouvrage en présente les communications.How is the memory of a show evoked and brought back to life Libraries and museums, by focusing on conservation, sometimes struggle to control the many details of the subject matter. Each collection has its own history and each institution has faced a multitude of difficulties. The aim of the papers put forward in this book is to illustrate how technology can help deepen the memory of each show and expand the virtually infinite spaces that keep them. The SIBMAS Congress held in Rome in 2002 represented a step forward in thinking about the use of new technologies in libraries and archives. 271 pp. Französisch, Englisch.

Jahrhundert in Böhmen bzw. der Habsburgermonarchie. Ein vergleichender Blick führt jedoch auch über diesen Rahmen hinaus.Dabei kommen einerseits die Themenfelder Bildung, Elitenvergesellschaftung, Soziabilität, Strategien des 'Obenbleibens' und visuelle Kultur zur Sprache, andererseits aber auch methodisch-konzeptuelle sowie historiographie- und ideologiegeschichtliche Fragen.Entstanden ist der Band in intensiver Zusammenarbeit der beteiligten Autoren aus Deutschland, Österreich, Polen, Russland, der Slowakei und Tschechien. 220 pp. Deutsch.

Les auteurs s'interrogent sur les convergences et divergences des systèmes scientifiques en Europe et sur les questions de coopération et de concurrence entre les pays de l'Europe de l'Ouest. L'ouvrage met en particulier l'accent sur les évolutions en France et en RFA et sur la ' dynamique francoallemande '. Y a-t-il à cette époque une coopération franco-allemande privilégiée ou une impulsion franco-allemande déterminante pour une coopération européenne en matière de recherche et d'enseignement supérieur, alors que la Communauté européenne n'avait encore guère de compétences en la matière À la lecture des communications ici rassemblées, il s'avère qu'il faut porter sur le ' tandem franco-allemand ' un regard plus nuancé, car la compétition, la rivalité, un reste de méfiance et une certaine fascination pour la recherche conduite aux États-Unis s'expriment encore dans les relations entre les deux pays. Entre menace soviétique et défi américain, il s'agit de montrer comment l'espace scientifique et universitaire européen se forme par la conjonction de projets bilatéraux et multilatéraux sur le ' vieux continent '. 321 pp. Französisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Il peut, au premier abord, paraître surprenant de vouloir associer l'oeuvre de Simenon aux termes de ' polyphonisme romanesque ' utilisé pratiquement de manière exclusive par Bakhtine dans son analyse de l'oeuvre de Dostoïevski.Simenon est en effet connu, dans le monde entier, pour associer sa production littéraire à la forme stéréotypée du roman policier vouée, dans bien des cas, à un certain conservatisme idéologique et scriptural. L'association entre Bakhtine et Simenon contribue pourtant sur un plan théorique à faire dialoguer les thèses bakhtiniennes avec d'autres traditions littéraires, notamment l'herméneutique et l'école de Constance. Cette association permet également de donner à l'oeuvre de Simenon une nouvelle cohérence que l'on ne soupçonnait pas.À la faveur de cette lecture bakhtinienne, Simenon sort donc de son isolement. Il se trouve ainsi inscrit dans une lignée qui, implicitement, va de Dostoïevski à Camus. 247 pp. Französisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume is devoted to the person and work of Leszek Kolakowski, who died in July 2009. At the turn of the 1940s and 1950s, Leszek Kolakowski belonged to a group of young intellectuals actively supporting on the 'ideological front' and in the University of Warsaw the new political agendas of Marxist provenance introduced in Poland. But already in 1955-56, he came to the fore of a movement of philosophical revisionists radically questioning the validity of these Marxist prescriptions. This resulted in his expulsion from the Communist Party in the early 1960s, then from the University and finally from Poland after the 'March events' in 1968. Presented in this volume are, on the one hand, texts drawing up a historical balance sheet of theoretical achievements of Leszek Kolakowski (articles by Andrzej Walicki and Andrew Targowski), and, on the other, essays devoted to certain aspects of his philosophical position (articles by Marcin Król, Zofia Rosinska, Janusz Dobieszewski, Witold Mackiewicz and Janusz Kuczynski). Also presented in this volume are some occasional essays sketching a portrait of Leszek Kolakowski (by Marek J. Siemek, Karol Toeplitz and Jerzy Szacki). The book is closed with an extensive bibliography. 160 pp. Englisch.
