        Denkweisen

        by Alfred North Whitehead, Stascha Rohmer, Stascha Rohmer, Stascha Rohmer

        „So, wie wir denken, leben wir. Darum ist das Sammeln philosophischer Ideen mehr als ein Studium für Spezialisten. Es formt unseren Typ der Zivilisation.“Alfred North Whitehead Der englische Philosoph Alfred North Whitehead gilt heute als bedeutendster Erneuerer der Metaphysik und Naturphilosophie im 20. Jahrhundert. Denkweisen, sein letztes großes Werk, beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, welche Aufgabe der Philosophie in jenem schöpferischen und kulturellen Prozeß zukommt, den wir als Zivilisation bezeichnen. Whiteheads Buch ist ein leidenschaftliches Plädoyer für die Kraft der Spekulation als grundlegende Weise philosophischen Denkens.Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947) widmete sich nach Grundlagenarbeiten über die Mathematik naturphilosophischen Fragen. Nach seiner Auswanderung nach Amerika entwickelte Whitehead eine Prozeßmetaphysik, die zuerst in Wissenschaft und moderne Welt (stw 753) und dann insbesondere in Prozeß und Realität (stw 690) und Abenteuer der Ideen (stw 1498) ausgearbeitet wurde. Zuletzt erschien Kulturelle Symbolisierung (stw 1497).

        The World of the North

        Between Ragnarok and welfare utopia: A cultural-historical deconstruction

        by Bernd Henningsen

        — Analysis of how we view Europe's North and how this image emerged — An outsider's perspective on Nordic societies and their self image — Serves as an introduction into Northern European culture and society Our image of Northern Europe has been shaped by projections and desires in the long history of encounters: berserkers and war atrocities, bad weather, beautiful nature, stable political systems, social welfare, equality and prosperity, peacefulness, low corruption, hygge and Bullerby – all this is part of the Nordic narrative. But what about the religious, linguistic and ethnic homogeneity, what about the muchvaunted Nordic cooperation? How do politics "work" in the North? Why are Northern Europeans the happiest people?

        Abenteuer der Ideen

        by Alfred North Whitehead, Eberhard Bubser, Reiner Wiehl

        »Bei diesem Buch handelt es sich um eine Studie über den Begriff der Zivilisation und um den Versuch zu verstehen, wie es zur Entstehung zivilisierter Wesen kommt.« A. N. Whitehead Eine fundamentale Rolle spielen dabei Ideen: sie sind mit Emotionen und Zweckvorstellungen verbunden und stellen Antriebskräfte dar, die den Übergang von Gesellschaften und Kulturen bewirken. Dem Abenteuer dieser Ideen, ihrer Aufeinanderfolge und ihrem Kampf, widmet sich Whiteheads Buch, das einen ganz eigenen, spekulativen Beitrag zur Ideengeschichte darstellt.

        Kulturelle Symbolisierung

        by Alfred North Whitehead, Rolf Lachmann, Rolf Lachmann, Rolf Lachmann

        Die aus einer 1927 gehaltenen Vorlesung hervorgegangene Schrift Whiteheads entstand unmittelbar vor der Ausarbeitung seines Hauptwerks Prozeß und Realität. Das Buch ist eine in seinem Werk sonst nirgendwo so vorfindbare Ausarbeitung kulturphilosophischer Positionen, die um die soziale und kulturelle Bedeutung der Symbolisierung zentriert sind. Whitehead interpretiert die Symbolisierung ausgehend von der Freilegung einer Grundstruktur der Erfahrung und zeigt, in welchem Sinne kulturelle Symbole eine wesentliche Funktion für die integrierte und vernünftige Richtunggebung unseres Lebens haben.

        Theresienstadt - Auschwitz - Schwarzheide: Das sind die Leidensstationen des jungen tschechischen Künstlers Alfred Kantor in den Jahren 1941-1945. Im Juli 1945, zehn Wochen nach der Befreiung aus dreieinhalb Jahre dauernder Haft in Lagern des NS-Regimes, kam der damals zweiundzwanzigjährige Kantor nach Deggendorf in ein Lager für »Displaced Persons«. Dort schuf er in etwa zwei Monaten die in diesem Band vorgelegten 127 mit Wasserfarben kolorierten Zeichnungen, die er in einem von einem Buchbinder eigens angefertigten Buch mit leeren Blättern eintrug.

        The mediated Arctic

        Poetics and politics of contemporary circumpolar geographies

        by Johannes Riquet

        The mediated Arctic analyses the multiple relations between geography and cultural production that have long shaped - and are currently transforming - the circumpolar world. It explores how twenty-first-century cultural practitioners imagine and poeticise various elements of Arctic geography, and in doing so negotiate pressing environmental, (geo)political, and social concerns. From the plasmatic force of ice in Disney's Frozen films to the spatial vocabulary of circumpolar Indigenous hip hop, it addresses Arctic geographical imaginaries in a wide range of media, including literature, cinema, comic books, music videos, and cartographic art. The book brings together a plurality of voices from within and outside the circumpolar North, both in terms of the works analysed and in its own collaborative scholarly practice. The book bridges Indigenous and Southern mediations of the Arctic and combines different epistemologies to do justice to these imaginaries in their diversity.

        Nordic Gothic

        by Maria Holmgren Troy, Johan Hõglund, Yvonne Leffler, Sofia Wijkmark

        Nordic Gothic traces Gothic fiction in the Nordic region from its beginnings in the nineteenth century, with a main focus on the development of Gothic from the 1990s onwards in literature, film, TV and new media. The volume gives an overview of Nordic Gothic fiction in relation to transnational developments and provides a number of case studies and in-depth analyses of individual narratives. It creates an understanding of this under-researched cultural phenomenon by showing how the narratives make visible cultural anxieties haunting the Nordic countries, their welfare systems, identities and ideologies. Nordic Gothic examines how figures from Nordic folklore function as metaphorical expressions of Gothic themes and Nordic settings are explored from perspectives such as ecocriticism and postcolonialism. The book will be of interest to researchers and post- and- undergraduate students in various fields within the Humanities.

        The Arctic in the British imagination 1818–1914

        The Arctic in the British imagination 1818–1914

        by Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie, Rob David

        The Arctic region has been the subject of much popular writing. This book considers nineteenth-century representations of the Arctic, and draws upon an extensive range of evidence that will allow the 'widest connections' to emerge from a 'cross-disciplinary analysis' using different methodologies and subject matter. It positions the Arctic alongside more thoroughly investigated theatres of Victorian enterprise. In the nineteenth century, most images were in the form of paintings, travel narratives, lectures given by the explorers themselves and photographs. The book explores key themes in Arctic images which impacted on subsequent representations through text, painting and photography. For much of the nineteenth century, national and regional geographical societies promoted exploration, and rewarded heroic endeavor. The book discusses images of the Arctic which originated in the activities of the geographical societies. The Times provided very low-key reporting of Arctic expeditions, as evidenced by its coverage of the missions of Sir John Franklin and James Clark Ross. However, the illustrated weekly became one of the main sources of popular representations of the Arctic. The book looks at the exhibitions of Arctic peoples, Arctic exploration and Arctic fauna in Britain. Late nineteenth-century exhibitions which featured the Arctic were essentially nostalgic in tone. The Golliwogg's Polar Adventures, published in 1900, drew on adult representations of the Arctic and will have confirmed and reinforced children's perceptions of the region. Text books, board games and novels helped to keep the subject alive among the young.

        Crossing borders and queering citizenship

        Civic reading practice in contemporary American and Canadian writing

        by Zalfa Feghali

        Can reading make us better citizens? In Crossing borders and queering citizenship, Feghali crafts a sophisticated theoretical framework to theorise how the act of reading can contribute to the queering of contemporary citizenship in North America. Providing sensitive and convincing readings of work by both popular and niche authors, including Gloria Anzaldúa, Dorothy Allison, Gregory Scofield, Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Erín Moure, Junot Díaz, and Yann Martel, this book is the first to not only read these authors together, but also to discuss how each powerfully resists the exclusionary work of state-sanctioned citizenship in the U.S. and Canada. This book convincingly draws connections between queer theory, citizenship studies, and border studies and sheds light on how these connections can reframe our understanding of American Studies.

        Vorträge und Aufsätze zur Psychoanalyse, Sprache und Praxis

        Quer zum Gang seiner bisherigen Publikationen hat Lorenzer Aufsätze und Vortragsmanuskripte verfaßt, die in doppelter Hinsicht als Einführung in sein Konzept gelten können. Sie verdeutlichen in knappen Skizzen die Grundlinien und sie schneiden die Thematik in verschiedenen Perspektiven an, sie versuchen damit, die Zusammenhänge herzustellen, die in den großen Arbeiten aus analytischen Gründen getrennt worden waren: Die Zusammenhänge zwischen individuell-subjektiver Struktur und objektiv-gesellschaftlicher Struktur, zwischen Sprache und Unbewußtem, Sprache und sinnlich-unmittelbaren Praxiselementen.
