June 1991Hermann Hesse in Augenzeugenberichten
Herausgegeben von Volker Michels
by Volker Michels
Wenige Autoren haben sich für die Wirkungen ihrer Bücher so verantwortlich gefühlt wie dieser Schriftsteller, der im Laufe seines Lebens nicht nur Zehntausende von Leserzuschriften beantwortet, sondern gewiß auch ebenso viele Besucher empfangen und sich ihrer Probleme angenommen hat. Einige von ihnen haben ihre Eindrücke auch schriftlich überliefert, Prominente wie Unbekannte. Sie kommen in diesem Band zu Wort und entwerfen uns Bilder von diesem Schriftsteller, die seinen Werdegang von der Jahrhundertwende bis ins hohe Alter begleiten. Neben Schilderungen von Autorenkollegen wie Romain Rolland, Max Brod, Hans Carossa, Ernst Penzoldt, Hilde Domin, Albrecht Goes, Wilhelm Schäfer, Hugo Ball, Bernhard von Brentano, R.J. Humm, Peter Weiss und vielen anderen, von Malern und Verlegern, stehen Berichte von Literaturwissenschaftlern und Journalisten, aber auch von Freunden, Schulkameraden und Hausangestellten. Sie alle tragen dazu bei, die Erinnerung an diesen Dichter lebendig zu halten für jene Generationen, in denen kein Augenzeuge mehr befragbar sein wird.

Politics & governmentMarch 2009The Boundary Commissions
Redrawing the UK's map of Parliamentary constituencies
by David Rossiter, R.J. Johnston, Charles Pattie
Available in paperback for the first time, this work of original scholarship is the first to trace in full detail how the UK's system for defining parliamentary constituencies has evolved since the Great Reform Act of 1832 and how the eight redistrictings since then were undertaken. Particular attention is paid to the five redistrictings that have been undertaken by the independent Boundary Commissions established in 1944, with a detailed study of all aspects of their work on the most recent review of all constituencies. The book is both a standard reference work on redistribution in the UK and provides the only detailed insight into how that task is currently undertaken, based on a study of the relevant documents and interviews with over a hundred of those most closely involved. The book will be essential for all those interested in the British constitution, and administrators concerned with making the constitution successful, as well as politicians.

VOLVER A MASADA
by Amnon Ben-Tor
VOLVER A MASADA por Amnon Ben-Tor Este libro resume los ocho volúmenes de la serie de Informes finales de Masada que se han publicado hasta la fecha. Las excavaciones en el sitio bajo la dirección de Yigael Yadin en la década de 1960 revelaron el palacio-fortaleza herodiano, que fue el último bastión de los rebeldes judíos en su revuelta contra las poderosas legiones romanas entre los años 66 a 73 de la era cristiana. Según el testimonio del historiador contemporáneo Flavio Josefo, los defensores optaron por suicidarse antes que rendirse. Cientos de voluntarios de todo el mundo participaron en dichas excavaciones. Los capítulos cubren los restos arquitectónicos y pequeños hallazgos de la época de Herodes, de los celotes y del período romano, las obras romanas durante el sitio y restos del período bizantino. En las excavaciones se encontraron miles de objetos, incluidos manuscritos. Masada no es solo un sitio arqueológico, sino también un símbolo, principalmente, pero no exclusivamente para los modernos israelíes. Esto se refleja en los cientos de miles de visitantes que acuden cada año de todos los rincones del mundo. En 2001, Masada fue declarado por la UNESCO como Patrimonio de la Humanidad. El capítulo final del libro examina el así llamado "mito de Masada" a la luz de la evidencia arqueológica y evalúa las recientes críticas de la metodología y de las conclusiones históricas de los excavadores de Masada en vista de sus resultados reales. Amnon Ben-Tor, profesor emérito de la Cátedra Yigael Yadin de Arqueología de la Tierra de Israel en el Instituto de Arqueología de la Universidad Hebrea de Jerusalén, fue miembro del equipo de Yadin en las excavaciones de Masada. Estudió arqueología e historia judía en la Universidad Hebrea, donde se doctoró en 1968 y enseñó hasta 2004. Paralelamente, participó en excavaciones en diversos sitios en Israel, incluido un estudio regional del área occidental del Valle de Jezreel, en los sitios de Tel Kiri, Tel Kashish y Yokneam. Desde 1990 dirige las excavaciones en Hatzor de la Fundación Selz en memoria de Yigael Yadin. 25×19 cm, 320 páginas, edición en tapas duras, muchas fotos e ilustraciones.
