    Book SynopsisEheschließung, Scheidung, Zugang zu Vermögen während und nach der Ehe: All dies war über die Jahrhunderte durch kirchliche und zivile Ordnungen strukturiert. Das Recht nahm damit sehr direkt Einfluss auf die persönliche Lebenspraxis. Obwohl das 19. Jahrhundert von zunehmender Rechtsvereinheitlichung gekennzeichnet war, bestanden vor allem in größeren territorialen Zusammenhängen partikulare Rechte weiter fort. Dies konnte Handlungsoptionen eröffnen in zahlreichen Fällen führte jedoch nur ein Wechsel in einen anderen Rechtsraum zum erwünschten Ziel, zum Beispiel einer Scheidung oder einer Wiederverheiratung. Differente Zugehörigkeiten konnten umgekehrt heiratswillige Paare vor große Herausforderungen stellen. An den Schnittstellen zwischen verschiedenen Rechtslogiken fragen die Beiträge nach Handlungsräumen von Männern und Frauen und nach den damit verbundenen Geschlechternormen.Aus dem Inhalt: Familienrecht(e) in der Habsburgermonarchie als Herausforderung des Empire / State, Church and Divorce from the Ottoman Empire to the Early Modern Greek State / French Basque Women's Adaptation to Legal Systems across Spaces, Times and Places / Eine Rechts- und Gesellschaftsgeschichte deutsch-russischer Eheschließungen von 18751926 / Schariagerichtsakten aus dem habsburgischen Bosnien-Herzegowina (18781918) / Verwandtschaftshandeln in einer ökonomisch auseinanderdriftenden Gesellschaft: Eine Hochzeit in Benin. Marriage, divorce, access to property during and after marriage, all this was structured over the centuries by ecclesiastical and civil provisions. Law thus had a very direct influence on personal life. The nineteenth century in particular was characterized by increasing legal unification, but particular rights continued to exist in larger territorial contexts. This legal heterogeneity as well as migration between different jurisdictional spaces could open up new possibilities to act. Conversely, different affiliations in regard to confession or ethnicity could pose great challenges for couples willing to marry. The aim of this issue is to ask at the interfaces between different legal logics about the spheres of action of men and women and the associated gender norms.

    Book SynopsisText in German. his volume gathers thirteen contributions from different scientific disciplines that are dedicated to questions of power, domination and gender in pre-modern times. For instance, it examines marital relationships of rulers, questions the function and stability of ruling systems and investigates patriarchy as an enduring ruling system as such. Thus, the volume offers individual case studies as well as theoretical reflections on the exercise of power and structures of domination, and then also takes a critical look on research approaches. It presents a highly complex, diverse and sometimes contradictory picture of power and domination. In conclusion, it offers (with reference to volume 11 of the publication series Macht und Herrschaft) critical reflections, outlines joining ideas and, thus, gives valuable suggestions for future investigations of power, domination and gender in a transcultural perspective.

    Book SynopsisThe category gender is essential in the context of macht and herrschaft. This volume focuses on the interaction or even complementarity of male and female herrschaft or the share in rule of men and women. The biological gender categories man and woman and the connected social and cultural roles do not serve as opposing, dichotomic notions or concepts but rather as a category for analysis, without which macht and herrschaft can not be examined appropriately. The contributions highlight Latin-European regions, yet they include regions from China to Egypt from 3rd B.C until 16th century A.D. Written texts, graphics and the material culture will be analysed.

    Book SynopsisWhen God created man, she was practicing this famous saying succinctly sums up the criticism of early feminist Christian theology. In addition, the Cultural Turn challenged the concept of religion that had been developed on the basis of Christianity assuming a sharp contrast between monotheism and polytheism. Starting from these criticisms and in the framework of a transcendental gender history from (late) antiquity to the present, this issue investigates the variety of discourses and actions opened up by notions of goddesses. In so doing, it explores the relationship between gender and transcendental concepts.

    Book SynopsisChildren in Homes is part of the critical debates on this socially important topic. How did the guiding ideas of home upbringing develop, how did change the principles and practices of socialisation in certain values and identities (gender-specific, social, religious, national); how did the concept of neglect/Verwahrlosung change and with which gender-specific connotations was it connected, who were the actors of social work; what possibilities of self-determination were available to the boarders/Zoeglinge; when and by whom were critical discourses developed, how was the sensitisation for the field of tension between institutional childcare/education and the subjectivity of the children/adolescents. The multifaceted questions are analysed from different perspectives using multi-layered sources from the 19th and 20th centuries in a broad geography.

    Book SynopsisVisuelle Medien Bildillustrierte, Fotografien, Plakate oder Filme waren nicht nur Ausdruck der tiefgreifenden gesellschaftlichen, politischen und kulturellen Umbrüche und Konflikte nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg, sondern agierten auch als deren Multiplikatorinnen. Als Räume für die Aushandlung aktueller Debatten und Indiz neuer gesellschaftlicher Entwicklungen insbesondere in Bezug auf zeitgenössische Geschlechterentwürfe und/oder die Thematisierung sexuellen Begehrens schufen sie zugleich ein Experimentierfeld für soziale, kulturelle und politische Bewegungen sowie Begegnungen. Die Beiträge des vorliegenden Themenhefts befassen sich mit unterschiedlichen visuellen Medien der 1920er- und 1930er-Jahre und rücken dabei kommerzielle und künstlerische Praktiken ebenso in den Blick wie die Produzent*innen und Konsument*innen visueller Kultur. Sie fragen nach Formen, Darstellungsweisen, Motiven und Figuren, die in diesem Kontext zirkulierten, sowie nach Produktions- und Rezeptionsräumen und deren emanzipativem Potenzial.Visual media such as magazines, photographs, posters or films were not only an expression of profound social, political and cultural upheavals and conflicts after World War I, but also acted as multipliers. As spaces for negotiating current debates and indications of new social developments especially with regard to contemporary gender concepts and/or the thematization of sexual desire they also created an experimental field for social, cultural and political movements and encounters. The contributions in this present issue deal with various visual media of the 1920s and 1930s, focusing on commercial and artistic practices as well as the producers and consumers of visual culture. They examine forms, types of manifestations, motives and figures that circulated in this context, as well as production and reception spaces and their emancipatory potential.

    Book SynopsisAn unnamed woman—a mother—struggles to survive in the face of state repression, neighborhood surveillance, extreme weather, and familial control.Alienation and dire frustration mount as an unnamed woman—a mother—struggles to survive in the face of state repression, neighborhood surveillance, extreme weather, and familial control. Told through one side of an epistolary exchange, Custody of the Eyes (Los Vigilantes) presents letters bookended by dense ramblings by the mother’s son, who struggles to speak and write and spends most of his days in lockdown rearranging his “vessels,” hysterically laughing, drooling, writhing, and withdrawing—a state that will ultimately consume his mother as well. This is a story that explores how power is enacted on and through the body—the physical, the social, and the political. Custody of the Eyes reconfirms the essential, constitutive nature of language and expression in power and freedom.
