June 1998Das Selbst im Lebenszyklus
by János Paál, Hans-Peter Hartmann, Wolfgang Milch, Peter Kutter
Für sämtliche Übergänge im Laufe des Lebens gelten die gleichen grundsätzlichen Prinzipien: das Selbst zu behaupten, aufrechtzuerhalten und ihm Ausdruck zu verleihen. Zu beobachten ist auch das Prinzip, daß einem Fortschritt zu einer höheren Integrationsstufe und höheren Werten eine Krise vorausgeht, eine vorübergehende Entidealisierung und Regression der bislang vorherrschenden Werte und Ideale und der mit ihnen verbundenen Selbstobjekt-Erfahrungen. Darüber hinaus ermöglicht die Tendenz, konkrete Selbstobjekte, also Personen, zunehmend durch abstrakte und symbolische Selbstobjekte zu ersetzen, verläßlichere und weniger enttäuschungsanfällige idealisierende Selbstobjekt-Erfahrungen.

Memoiren von Holocaust-Überlebenden | Einzigartige Dokumentation der letzten Zeugen des Holocaust | Mit Bildern von Gerhard Richter
by Éva Alpár, Klaus Appel, Hana und Hanuš Arend, Sigmund Baumöhl, Ernst Brenner, Jake Fersztand, Fabian Gerson, Gábor Hirsch, Peter Lebovic, Ivan Lefkovits, Christa Markovits, Gábor (Neumann) Nyirö, Andreas Sás, Arnost Schlesinger, André Sirtes, Nina Weilová, Ivan Lefkovits, Gerhard Richter
»Wie kann ich das alles beschreiben?«, fragt Peter Lebovic zu Beginn seiner »Erinnerungen aus dem längsten Jahr meines Lebens«, das ihn 1944 nach Auschwitz, ins Warschauer Ghetto und nach Dachau führte. »Wie kann man Hunger, Demütigung, Schläge, Angst, Schmutz, all die Grausamkeiten, die ganze Atmosphäre schildern?« 15 Überlebende des Holocaust erinnern sich in diesem Projekt an ihre Zeit in deutschen Konzentrationslagern, an ihr Überleben, ihr Weiterleben in der Schweiz und anderswo, jeder und jede für sich, die eigene Geschichte und doch gemeinsam. Entstanden ist eine einzigartige Dokumentation der letzten Zeugen des Holocaust.Die Umschläge der 15 Hefte hat Gerhard Richter mit Ausschnitten aus seinen »Birkenau«-Bildern gestaltet.

Science & MathematicsMay 2020Optical Manipulation of Pests and Beneficial Arthropods
by David Ben-Yakir, Antoine Abrieux, Joanna C. Chiu, Joseph E. Funderbunk, Daphna Gottlieb, Gábor Horváth, Simcha Lev-Yadun, Un Taek Lim, Xavier Martini, Masami Shimoda, Robert van Tol
Arthropod pests, pollinators, and natural enemies of pests have a great economic importance to human health and food supply worldwide. Arthropods use optical cues to find food and suitable oviposition sites, daily and seasonal activities, orientation and navigation. Most arthropods have compound eyes with receptors for UV light (peak sensitivity at 360 nm) and for green-yellow light (peak sensitivity at 520-540 nm). Many arthropods also have simple eyes (ocelli) that respond to changes in light intensity. Some arthropods can detect linearly polarized light and use it as an optical cue for oviposition sites, finding of hosts and navigation.The properties of the optical cue, such as wavelength, intensity, polarization, size, shape and contrast, greatly affect their response to the optical cue. Therefore, manipulation of optical cues can interfere or enhance arthropods' activities and development. UV light has been used to attract insects for monitoring and control. The patterns of UV reflected from flowers and plants affect arthropods' preference to visit them. The absence of UV light often deters arthropods and decreases their dispersal rate. UVB induces general stress in plants which may increase their resistance to arthropod pests. Green-yellow color induces landing and favors settling (arresting) of many plant feeding arthropods. High levels of reflected sunlight (above 25% of sun radiation) deters arthropods' landing and reduces settling. The recent use of monochromatic lights to increase crop yield, or to induce desirable plant characteristics, is expected to affect the activity of the associated arthropds as well. Optical manipulations are proposed as a part of an integrated pest management (IPM) program for open-field and protected crops, and for protecting the health of humans and domestic animals. This book contains up-to-date reviews of the published literature, some unpublished results of the authors, and suggestions for future research and development of this method.

by Erdogan Koc, Aybeniz Akdeniz Ar, Umut Avci, Gulnil Aydin, Melissa A. Baker, Kemal Birdir, Huey Chern Boo, Hakan Boz, Ugur Caliskan, Celil Cakici, Ali Dalgic, Christina K. Dimitriou, Mariangela Franch, Ozan Guler, Jong-Hyeong, Anna Irimiás, Petranka Kelly, Kawon Kim, Erdogan Koc, Jennifer Lawlor, Minwoo Lee, Poh Theng (Beatrice) Loo, Gábor Michalkó, Michael Mulvey, Isil Arikan Saltik, Dallen J Timothy, Derya Toksöz
Tourism and hospitality services are highly prone to service-failure due to a high level of customer-employee contact and the inseparable, intangible, heterogeneous and perishable nature of these services. Service Failures and Recovery in Tourism and Hospitality, with its extensive coverage of the literature, presents an invaluable source of information for academics, students, researchers and practitioners. In addition to its extensive coverage of the literature in terms of recent research published in top tier journals, chapters in the book contain student aids, real-life examples, case studies, links to websites and activities alongside discussion questions and presentation slides for in-class use by teaching staff. This book is enhanced with supplementary resources. The customizable lecture slides can be found at: www.cabi.org/openresources/90677

Saint Michael The Archangel
by Immacolata Aulisa, Claudio Azzara, Gioia Bertelli, Pierre Bouet, Ada Campione, Franco Cardini, Manuel Castiñeiras, Gerardo Cioffari, Alessandro di Muro, Klaus Herbers, Renzo Infante, Gábor Klaniczay, Giorgio Otranto, Francesco Panarelli, Giuseppe Sergi, André Vauchez, Catherine Vincent
From the Hebrew name meaning “Who Is Like God?”, Michael is one of the angels–together with Raphael (“God Heals”) and Gabriel (“God Is My Strength”)–whose names are mentioned in the Holy Scripture. Since the first centuries of Christianity, there has been a wide diffusion of his worship in Europe and in the East through a multitude of sanctuaries and chapels, mostly nestled in high places, related to caves and water. An astonishing feature of this spread is a mysterious straight line crossing the European continent from North-West to South-East from Ireland to Asia Minor, and it is perfectly aligned with the sunset on the day of Summer Solstice. Along this line are seven sanctuaries dedicated to Michael, three of which have been significantly important over the centuries: Mont Saint-Michel in Normandy, the Sacra di San Michele in val di Susa and the Sanctuary of Monte Sant’Angelo on Mount Gargano, in Puglia. Three extraordinary high places that are all the same distance one from the other and which have always been a constant pilgrimage destination. Another aspect is the connection Saint Michael had with the Longobards, who migrated across Europe between the second and the sixth century until they reached Italy where they settled. This made Michael the first truly “European” Saint, attracting believers from all over the continent. With the contribution of some of the most important historians and medievalists from different European countries, this book depicts the presence of Saint Michael in Europe, starting with the diffusion of his devotion, especially during the Middle Ages, and extending to an analysis of the iconography of the Saint through the many architectural and artistic testimonies to be found throughout Europe. Thanks to its influential contributions and to the variety of both historical and iconographic topics, combined with the spectacular nature of the numerous images of places and artistic testimonies, this book is a unique journey through Europe between art and faith.
