Zeiten der Wachsamkeit
AvArndt Brendecke,Susanne Reichlin

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
"Cultures of Vigilance" aims to research the historical and cultural foundations of vigilance. Within this context, "vigilance" refers to a linking of individual attentiveness to goals set by others. This linking occurs on an everyday basis, be it in the realm of public security, religion, law, or the healthcare sector; wherever and whenever we are asked to pay attention to something specific and, if necessary, also to react to, or report anything we have noticed in a specific way. The goal is to analyse the history, cultural variations and current forms of this phenomenon.

Tasso and Marino acted in strictly normative contexts, both in the poetic and religious worlds they lived in. However both authors developed evasive strategies (e.g. paratextual allegories) enabling them to circumvent censorship and to write about love and enchantment.

Vigilance and the Plague
France Confronted with the Epidemic Scourge during the 17th and 18th Centuries
AvSébastien Demichel,Mark Sven Hengerer
Häftad, Engelska, 2024
685 kr
Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
This book focuses on the connection between vigilance and the plague in France throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. For more than three centuries, between the middle of the 14th century up until circa 1670, the prevalence of the plague in France was said to be endemic, before it then vanished from French territory. The Great Plague of Marseille (1720-1722, which also impacted the rest of Provence, the County of Venaissin and Languedoc) proved to be an exception. During that period, the fight against the plague was deemed a top-priority along the French coast, and health institutions, called bureaux de la santé, were developed. Contributions to this book primarily focus on health vigilance from the standpoint of how to prevent an epidemic and how to respond to a declared epidemic. Among the salient themes addressed are: communications between health and different state actors, prevailing religious and political norms, and the popular participation in the fight against the plague. The use of the concept of vigilance enables the mobilisation of often rather distant branches of history, namely institutional. social, religious history, the history of communication and the history of public health.
Kreativität im Schnittpunkt der Observanzen/ Creatività e osservanza
Italienische Literatur um 1600 zwischen Gegenreformation und Regelpoetik/ Letteratur a italiana del Seicento tra Controriforma e normatività poetica
AvMaddalena Fingerle,Florian Mehltretter
Häftad, Tyska, 2023
649 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Italian literature emerged around 1600 at the intersection of poetological and religious attempts at standardization and under the attentive watch of a literary community and its critical discussions as well as the censorship and inquisition of the Counter-Reformation. This volume sheds light on creativity under the conditions of this twofold "observance" by looking at texts from various genres written between ca. 1550 and 1650.

Creating an Empire of Informers
Vigilance in the Assyrian Empire and King Esarhaddon’s adê-Covenant of 672 BC
AvPoppy Tushingham

Throughout history, many states have attempted to harness the attention of their populations for their own ends. This study argues that the Assyrian Empire in the year 672 BC is such a case. In 672 BC, Esarhaddon, King of Assyria, imposed a succession covenant (adê) on his subjects, the inhabitants of the Assyrian Empire. This covenant required the empire’s population to monitor one another, and themselves, for signs of disloyalty to the monarch and his chosen successor, Ashurbanipal. This study examines the aims and outcomes, desired and undesired, of imposing this duty of vigilance across the Assyrian Empire. To consider the presentation and implementation of this duty of vigilance, the study draws largely on evidence supplied by the covenant and other royally-commissioned texts. To examine the outcomes of the covenant’s enactment, meanwhile, it explores cuneiform sources, such as letters to the crown, private legal documents, and literary compositions, as well as the Aramaic Story of Ahiqar and the biblical Book of Deuteronomy. By providing a sustained analysis of the real-world implications and outcomes of the covenant, this book sheds new light on a text that fundamentally altered the political makeup of the Assyrian Empire.
Self-Help in the Digital Age
TED Talks, Speculative Fiction, and the Role of Reading
AvLoredana Filip
Häftad, Engelska, 2024

Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
In an age where science and technology hold sway and the humanities face a crisis, this book explores the evolving role of literature. It delves into how American self-help culture shapes contemporary ideals of success, mindfulness, and happiness, with a particular focus on its influence in science communication, notably in TED talks. Moreover, it underscores the enduring relevance of literature in the digital era by analyzing speculative novels that challenge established norms, including those propagated by TED. These novels include Richard Powers’ Generosity: An Enhancement, Margaret Atwood’s MaddAddam trilogy and Gary Shteyngart’s Super Sad True Love Story. They question the Western preference for visual perception, which perpetuates a human-centric worldview. By focusing on literary synesthesia in the readings, this book emphasizes sensory experiences and human-nonhuman interactions. It adopts the concept of research as assemblage and uses a diverse range of theories and approaches, while it foregrounds critical posthumanism and new materialism. Ultimately, it advocates for a less anthropocentric approach to reading and presents literature as a "transdisciplinary life science" capable of fostering a "kinship of posthumanity."

Der Intendantenberuf in Der Weimarer Republik Am Beispiel Der Bayerischen Staatstheater
AvCarolina Heberling

A strict hierarchy with a powerful person at the top: German theaters are still heavily based on the century-old figure of the Intendant or artistic director, a profession that took on some of its present character in the 1920s. This volumes examines the example of the Bavarian State Theater to ask how this role developed in the Weimar Republic and where early alternatives to the model of the "autocrat" can be found.

Skandale Um Die Zensur
Theater Und Öffentlichkeit in München (1919-1929)
AvSabrina Kanthak
Häftad, Tyska, 2025
395 kr
Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
Am 11. August 1919 entfiel mit der Weimarer Verfassung die Theaterzensur, die bislang fester Bestandteil des Theaters gewesen war. Die Freiheit der Kunst wurde garantiert. Die Untersuchung beleuchtet die Transformationen um die Aufhebung der Theaterzensur unter dem Begriff ‚De-Censorship‘ und geht der Frage nach, inwiefern sich eine Kontrolle über das Theater dennoch fortsetzte. Besonders anschaulich lässt sich dies an den Theaterskandalen in den 1920er Jahren zeigen, die oftmals ähnlich restriktiv wirkten wie die Zensur.

Theaterskandale in der Weimarer Republik sind in ihrer Intensität und Häufigkeit in der Theatergeschichte ohne Beispiel, doch bisher kaum erforscht. Verbale Attacken in den Zeitungen, Tumulte im Zuschauerraum und polizeiliche Maßnahmen waren dabei an der Tagesordnung. Entlang von exemplarischen Fallstudien zu Theaterskandalen aus München erforscht die Arbeit, wie sich die Kontrolle vom Staat auf die Öffentlichkeit verschiebt und zeigt, dass durch Kontrolle und Skandal neue Öffentlichkeiten im Theater der Weimarer Republik nachgewiesen werden können.

Between Cure and Control
Doctors, Convicts and Slaves in Tuscan and Papal Galleys (16th-18th Centuries)
AvBenedetta Chizzolini
Häftad, Engelska, 2025

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Since antiquity, doctors have always been required to be "vigilant" (i.e., extremely attentive), particularly when it comes to any symptoms exhibited and/or complained of by the patient. As outlined in the Hippocratic Oath since antiquity, a doctor’s primary mission is to ensure the patient’s well-being and recovery, irrespective of their social status. However, loyalty to the patient was explicitly subordinated whenever the patient performed an action deemed suspicious or even detrimental to society’s best interests. The goal of this book is, therefore, to delve deeper into the multivalent role and attitude of physicians and surgeons as "experts" in how to interpret symptoms, and how this, in turn, influenced their relationship with their patients, especially when the latter were considered to be "dangerous individuals". This analysis does not seek to further explore Foucault’s concept of the "disciplinary" nature of medicine, but rather uses it as a starting point for analyzing the complex and, so to speak, "ambiguous" nature of the doctor-patient relationship in the early modern period, one which oscillated between cooperation and conflict. To deepen these aspects, this analysis will consider the role and tasks of a figure often neglected by historiography: the galley doctor.

The Hohenfurter Liederbuch has long been overlooked in research on late medieval poetry. With its uniquely preserved sacred songs in German, it attests to the devotional efforts of the Late Middle Ages, which are the focus of this study. The volume examines the role of the guardian figure and the warning voice in sacred songs, placing special emphasis on the songs about the “great sinner” in the second part of the manuscript.
