Zweisprachige Ausgabe (deutsch/französisch) / Bilingual edition (French/German) Die Publikation untersucht Unterschiede und Gemeinsamkeiten der Landschaftsarchitektur in Frankreich und Deutschland. Dabei wird die Frage aufgeworfen, inwieweit zeitgenössische Landschaftsarchitektur durch Gartenkunst und Gartenkultur beeinflusst wird. Französische und deutsche Autor*innen gehen den Spuren des Gartens in der Landschaftsarchitektur nach und wenden unterschiedliche Herangehensweisen wie etwa biografische oder wissenschaftliche Reflexion an. Das Buch richtet sich an Forschende, Studierende und Entwerfende in der Landschaftsarchitektur sowie an eine breitere Öffentlichkeit, die an dieser Facette des kulturellen Austauschs zwischen Frankreich und Deutschland interessiert ist.

Most journal articles, edited volumes and monographs on youth language practices deal with one specific variety, one geographical setting, or with one specific continent. This volume bridges these different studies, and it approaches youth language from a much broader angle. A global framework and a diversity of methodologies enable a wider perspective that gives room to comparisons of youth’s manipulations and linguistic agency, transnational communicative practices and language contact scenarios. The research presented addresses structural features of everyday talk and text, youth identity issues related to specific purposes and contexts, and sociocultural emphases on ideologies and belonging. Combining insights into sociolinguistic and structural features of youth language, the volume includes case studies from Asia (Indonesia), Australia and Oceania (Arnhem Land, New Ireland), South America (the Amazon, Chile, Argentina), Europe (Germany, Spain) and Africa (Uganda, Nigeria, DR Congo, Central African Republic, South Africa). It expands on existing publications and offers a more comparative and "global" approach, without a division of youth’s strategies in terms of geographical space or language family. This collection, including a conceptual introduction, is of interest to scholars from several linguistic subfields working in different regional contexts as well as sociologists and anthropologists working in the field of adolescence and youth studies.

Andreas Lehnardt legt die erste kommentierte Übersetzung des Traktates Pesahim (Pesahopfer) des Jerusalemer Talmud vor. Der Traktat Pesahim ist der dritte Traktat der zweiten Ordnung Mo´ed (Festzeiten). Er behandelt wie der gleichnamige Traktat der Mischna das Fest, das in der Tora (vgl. Ex 12; Num 9,1-14; Dtn 16,1-8) Pesah oder Fest der ungesäuerten Brote (Matzot) genannt wird und an den Auszug aus Ägypten erinnert. Wie die Mischna behandelt die Gemara vor allem die Themen Fortschaffen des Gesäuerten, Herstellung der Matzot-Brote, Zubereitung der Pesah-Opfer, Feier des Zweiten Pesah und Feier der Seder-Nacht. Neben langen Diskussionen der halakhischen Bestimmungen der Mischna finden sich in dem Traktat berühmte aggadische Stücke wie z.B. der Bericht über Hillels Aufstieg zur Macht (yPes 6,1 [33a]) und historisch relevante Nachrichten, wie z. B. die über Kontakte zwischen Samaritanern und Rabbinen (yPes 1,1[27b]).Die Übersetzung basiert auf der Edition Krotoszyn 1865/66, berücksichtigt werden jedoch auch die in der Synopse zum Talmud Yerushalmi edierten Handschriften und Drucke sowie einige indirekte Textzeugen und Geniza Fragmente. In einem ausführlichen Kommentar erläutert Andreas Lehnardt unter Berücksichtigung traditioneller Kommentare und Sekundärliteratur alle wichtigen Probleme der Interpretation und Übersetzung. Beigegeben sind eine Bibliographie und Erläuterungen zur Methodik. Ein Register der Bibelstellen, Parallelen in der rabbinischen Literatur, Rabbinennamen und Namen von sonstigen Personen und Orten schließt den Band ab.

With contributions from outstanding specialists in glass art and East Asian art history, this edited volume opens a cross-cultural dialogue on the hitherto little-studied medium of Chinese reverse glass painting. The first major survey of this form of East Asian art, the volume traces its long history, its local and global diffusion, and its artistic and technical characteristics. Manufactured for export to Europe and for local consumption within China, the fragile artworks studied in this volume constitute a paramount part of Chinese visual culture and attest to the intensive cultural and artistic exchange between China and the West. With contributions by Thierry Audric, Kee Il Choi Jr., Patrick Conner, Karina H. Corrigan, Elisabeth Eibner, Patricia F. Ferguson, Lihong Liu, William H. Ma, Alina Martimyanova, Christopher L. Maxwell, Rupprecht Mayer, Jessica Lee Patterson, Michaela Pejčochová, Jérôme Samuel, Hans Bjarne Thomsen, Jan van Campen, Rosalien van der Poel

The ongoing paradigm change in regard to the use of energy, its efficient usage and the consumption of resources is giving rise to new light systems and lighting appliances. This development might also lead to the use of light as a building material in its own right, comparable to traditional building materials, making it possible to create light space productions something that did not seem feasible up to now due to the high cost of energy and of light systems. The goal of this book is to develop temporary light spaces that re-interpret the existing urban environment on a seasonal basis or over a cycle of several years. As a result, the city will literally appear in a new light. Strollers in the city streets will experience their familiar environment in a new way. Illuminated planes interlacing with planes made by linear fields of light beams will create immaterial material space experiences: still lifes of light within which one can move about and light choreographies that move barely noticeably, creating still lifes in motion. Current research aims at exploring, imagining and inventing stand-alone spatial structures of light, adding on to and transforming existing spaces, creating a new spatial awareness that may enable people to experience urban space in a different way. Similar to the process of architectural design, where haptic built volumes create interspaces, the light spaces that are presently being designed make these interspaces visible and allow urban dwellers to experience unexpected spatial constellations. The discourse in this book starts with essays introducing aspects of light spaces, including the following: Christian Bartenbach on the perception of light as something that creates space; Niels Gutschow on the ritual dimension of light, an element in the history of creation; Samuel Widmer on light in near-death experiences; Aldous Huxley on light as the messenger from a world we perceive on an unconscious level; Jun'ichiro Tanizaki on the world of the shadow and Tadashi Endo on movement as a relation between time and space in Butoh, the Japanese dance of darkness. The discourse concludes with documents on light spaces by Wolfgang Rang collected over a period of 30 years showing how these light spaces were regarded in the writings of con-temporaries, including Max Bächer on the dawn of a new era; Hans-Peter Schwarz on the deconstruction of space by light; Jürgen Hasse on light as a discourse fragment of public space; Manuel Cuadra on red luminescence; and Antonio de Campos on shadow as an expression of light.

Le Registre fiscal édité et commenté dans ce livre note tous les versements, en or et en cuivre, encaissés par le Trésor du village d'Aphrodito en Basse-Thébaïde durant l'année 525/526, ainsi que la répartition des recettes entre la Caisse centrale et les divers bénéficiaires désignés par l'administration. Document des plus banals pour son époque, il est aujourd'hui unique par son état de conservation et par le contexte documentaire nourri qui éclaire et enrichit ses données propres. Le commentaire explore les domaines, parfois très vastes, où les données du Registre et du dossier constitué autour de lui remettent en cause les idées reçues. Document comptable, le Registre fournit pour la première fois la clef des rapports réels entre les deux espèces, l'or et le cuivre, qui dominent la circulation monétaire dans l'Antiquité tardive. Une étude des salaires et des rations militaires, auxquels Aphrodito contribue, en donne une image singulièrement concrète, quant aux modalités de paiement mais aussi aux quantités consommées par les soldats. Les données relatives à la fiscalité en blé inspirent une enquête sur l'approvisionnement de la capitale, Constantinople, et jettent une lumière inattendue sur le nombre de victimes de la grande peste de 542. Ce village égyptien reculé s'avère un échantillon fidèle de la société impériale, un microcosme où les problèmes parmi les plus débattus de l'histoire économique et sociale du Bas-Empire ont laissé leur empreinte et peut-être la clef de leur solution.

Bilingual edition German / Italian Glimmering glass beads can be threaded onto thin wire and shaped into flowers - a historical handcraft based in Venice and its famous Murano glass. In this lavishly illustrated book, Georg Ragnar Levi tells the fascinating story of how beaded flowers came to be loved and despised - and at one point in history even banned. So-called French beaded flowers were created in homes, convents, prisons, and workshops, and were used for ornamental and symbolic purposes at baptisms, weddings, and funerals. The author guides us through the history, techniques, materials, and personal stories behind the craft, showing how the demand for wreaths and bouquets in the early 1900s became the bread and butter of many families in Europe and made the glassworks of Murano and Bohemia prosper. Edizione bilingue – Tedesco/Italiano Quella dei fiori di perline è un’arte antica e straordinaria, di origine veneziana; una manualità che pareva perduta, ma che sopravvive nel tempo. Le fioriture perenni sono realizzate con minute perline di vetro di Murano e boeme, montate su un finissimo filo di ferro. Le recensioni definiscono il volume riccamente illustrato di Georg Ragnar Levi "una rivelazione". L’autore conduce con naturalezza il lettore attraverso la storia, le tecniche, i materiali e i racconti personali che accompagnano le creazioni floreali.
