May 1997Wittgenstein im Kontext der analytischen Philosophie
by Peter M. S. Hacker, Peter M. S. Hacker, Joachim Schulte
Von Wittgensteins Werk Philosophische Untersuchungen ausgehend, richtet Hacker den Blick zunächst zurück, um den Kontext der Entstehung dieser epochemachenden Schrift zu schildern, und anschließend nach vorn, um die Wirkung von Wittgensteins Werk zu erkünden. Der Rückblick beginnt mit der Zeit der Jahrhundertwende, den Schriften des deutschen Logikers Gottlob Frege einerseits und den Arbeiten der englischen Philosophen Bertrand Russell und G. E. Moore andererseits. Damit wird zugleich der für Wittgensteins Denken bestimmende geistesgeschichtliche Rahmen abgesteckt: die Welt der in Logik und Begriffsanalyse avanciertesten Denker der deutschen wie der britischen Kultur. Hackers vergleichende Betrachtung konzentriert sich sodann auf die Entwicklung des wissenschaftstheoretisch und logisch orientierten Wiener Kreises (Schlick, Carnap, Neurath u. a.) und der eher an erkenntnistheoretischen und psychologischen Themen interessierten Cambridge-Philosophie der Vorkriegszeit. Im Anschluß an eine darauf folgende mustergültige Darstellung der Philosophischen Untersuchungen zeichnet Hacker den Weg der neueren analytischen Philosophie nach und behandelt dabei Autoren wie Quine, Dummett und Davidson, die in der gegenwärtigen Diskussion den Ton angeben.

The ArtsJuly 2024Pasticcio opera in Britain
History and context
by Peter Morgan Barnes
This study overturns twentieth-century thinking about pasticcio opera. This radical way of creating opera formed a counterweight, even a relief, to the trenchant masculinity of literate culture in the seventeenth century. It undermined the narrowing of nationalism in the eighteenth century, and was an act of gross sacrilege against the cult of Romantic genius in the nineteenth century. In the twentieth century, it found itself on the wrong side of copyright law. However, in the twenty-first century it is enjoying a tentative revival. This book redefines pasticcio as a method rather than a genre of opera and aligns it with other art forms which also created their works from pre-existing parts, including sculpture. A pasticcio opera is created from pre-existing music and text, thus flying in face of insistence on originality and creation by a solo genius.

MedicineAugust 2018Lyme Disease
An Evidence-based Approach
by John J Halperin
This new edition of Lyme Disease provides up-to-date evidence-based research and covers the significant advances in our understanding of the disorders referred to as Lyme disease or Lyme borreliosis. This book explores the causative organism, its requisite ecosystem, disease epidemiology, host-Borrelia interactions, diagnostic testing, clinical manifestations, therapeutic options, the role of host immunity on pathogenesis and long term prognosis. The authors provide balanced perspectives on all aspects of Lyme disease and explicitly review both the basic biology of the infection and practical clinical aspects. This new edition: Includes new borrelial pathogens that have been identified (B. miyamotoi, B. mayonii and B. bavariensis among others). Provides updated information on the molecular biology of the organism, neuroborreliosis, and the role of the C6 peptide in diagnosis. Discusses the controversies about 'chronic Lyme disease', post Lyme disease syndrome and other ongoing but non-specific symptoms that have been attributed to this infection. As the endemic footprint of Lyme disease continues to grow, this book provides a broad and detailed guide for clinicians and researchers involved with the diagnosis and treatment of the condition. Covering biology, epidemiology and therapeutics, it is also essential reading for students of global health and infectious disease.
