Der Maler Rudolf Levy (1875–1944) war eine zentrale Figur der Münchner und Pariser Avantgarde und feierte mit seinen farbkräftigen Bildnissen, Landschaften und Stillleben auch im Berlin der 1920er-Jahre große Erfolge, unter anderem in der legendären Flechtheim-Galerie. Die Machtergreifung der Nationalsozialisten führte zu einem jähen Karriereende. Nach einer Flucht-Odyssee konnte Levy sich schließlich in Florenz niederlassen, wo sein Schaffen bis zur Deportation und Ermordung im Konzentrationslager Auschwitz einen letzten eindrucksvollen Höhepunkt erlebte. Als erstes deutsches Ausstellungshaus widmet sich das Museum Pfalzgalerie Kaiserslautern in einer Retrospektive nun Werk und Leben von Rudolf Levy. Der Katalog öffnet den Blick auf einen Künstler europäischen Ranges, dessen reiche Bildwelt immer wieder neu zu entdecken ist. Beiträge namhafter Autorinnen und Autoren beleuchten Levys Schicksal als verfolgter Künstler und als verfolgter Jude, das künstlerische Kaleidoskop seiner Zeit, die Jahre im Florentiner Exil sowie die Rezeption und Re-Kanonisierung seiner Kunst in der jungen Bundesrepublik.

Die religions- und geistesgeschichtlichen Grundlinien der Entdeckung der "inneren Welt" des Menschen reichen von der Antike bis in die Gegenwart. Der vorliegende Band sammelt zahlreiche Artikel von Wissenschaftlern und Wissenschaftlerinnen, die die Aktualität des besonders in der Moderne immer spannungsvolleren Verhältnisses zwischen Theologie und Psychologie anhand historischer und gegenwärtiger Problemfelder nachzeichnen und dabei vor allem die Potenziale ihrer interdisziplinären Wiederannäherung vor Augen haben. Im Rückgriff auf den Gefühlsdiskurs der jüngeren Vergangenheit loten die Beiträger neue Verbindungslinien der zumeist hochspezialisierten theologischen, psychologischen und anthropologischen Forschungsperspektiven auf die "innere Welt" der Religion aus.

This timely Handbook demonstrates that global linkages, flows and circulations merit a more central place in theorization about development. Calling for a mobilities turn, it challenges the sedentarist assumptions which still underlie much policy making and planning for the future. Expert contributors analyze development from a mobilities perspective, exploring how globalization connects distant people and places, so that what happens in one place has direct bearing on another. Chapters provide an overview of the global trends related to the flows of people and capital over the past decade, and offer insights into the consequences of developmental practices and policies that unfold on the ground. Drawing on specific case studies from Africa, Asia and Latin America, this Handbook considers how, in many localities, livelihood opportunities are ever more shaped by positionality, and the ways in which people are attached to and participate in translocal and transnational networks. Providing a bottom-up analysis of the implications of globalization for translocal development, this Handbook will be a valuable resource for scholars and students of development studies, human geography, and sustainability and environmental science. Its use of global case studies will also be useful for practitioners and policy makers who desire a better understanding of the developmental impact of policies and investments.

Past Landscapes presents theoretical and practical attempts of scholars and scientists, who were and are active within the Kiel Graduate School “Human Development in Landscapes” (GSHDL), in order to disentangle a wide scope of research efforts on past landscapes. Landscapes are understood as products of human-environmental interaction. At the same time, they are arenas, in which societal and cultural activities as well as receptions of environments and human developments take place. Thus, environmental processes are interwoven into human constraints and advances.This book presents theories, concepts, approaches and case studies dealing with human development in landscapes. On the one hand, it becomes evident that only an interdisciplinary approach can cover the manifold aspects of the topic. On the other hand, this also implies that the very different approaches cannot be reduced to a simplistic uniform definition of landscape. This shortcoming proves nevertheless to be an important strength. The umbrella term ‘landscape’ proves to be highly stimulating for a large variety of different approaches.The first part of our book deals with a number of theories and concepts, the second part is concerned with approaches to landscapes, whereas the third part introduces case studies for human development in landscapes. As intended by the GSHDL, the reader might follow our approach to delve into the multi-faceted theories, concepts and practices on past landscapes: from events, processes and structures in environmental and produced spaces to theories, concepts and practices concerning past societies.

The true story of a Jewish boy in hiding during World War II, as told by his teddy bear. I felt Fred’s small hand grab me. He patted me and whispered, “Bear, I won’t leave you here all by yourself. You are my best friend.” Based on true events and beautifully illustrated, this is the story of a friendship that will last forever—told by Fred’s best friend, his beloved teddy bear. During World War II, Fred must leave his home and live in hiding, apart from the rest of his family, but he always keeps Bear by his side. Bear knows it’s his job to take care of Fred and make sure he doesn’t feel alone. After the war, Fred and his family are reunited and leave Holland for the United States. And still Bear is with him. When Fred grows up, he and Bear part for the first time when Bear is sent to Yad Vashem—the World Holocaust Remembrance Center in Israel, where this book was first published—to show the power of hope, friendship, and love.

Fagus is the story of a Gesamtkunstwerk and an early example of corporate identity: the Fagus factory in Alfeld an der Leine, built by Walter Gropius and Adolf Meyer from 1911, is regarded as the founding structure of modernism. The architects succeeded in giving a medium-sized company a completely unusual face that was anything but traditional. This was possible because the client and architect formed an extraordinarily favorable constellation. The factory owner combined an affinity toward the life reform movement with American corporate philosophy. With its representative objectivity and extensive use of glass, the factory is also an expression of a new entrepreneurial self-confidence and a modern advertising strategy. The avant-garde further influenced the design of the company’s machines and its printed matter. The list of collaborators reads like a Who’s Who of international modernism: some of Fagus’s advertising, for instance, was designed by Johannes Molzahn, Theo von Doesburg, and Herbert Bayer. And with his series of photographs from 1928, the photographer Albert Renger-Patzsch created what can today be called a classic image of the Fagus factory and its products.

Today, it seems more urgent than ever to focus more attention in design on the common good. This is because we are faced with the consequences of a design methodology that is geared towards the good of individuals wherever we look. The concept of public value seems ideal as a way of focusing design education more strongly on the common good: Public value is what the public values. It provides an alternative to one-sided orientations such as the shareholder value paradigm. The iF Design Foundation 2022 has carried out the present study in order to determine the public value of design study programs at German universities. This study provides a basis for encouraging and realising a form of design education in Germany geared towards the common good. This publication also contains a list of all design courses of study at German universities.
