The Oxford Handbook of the Egyptian Book of the Dead

Alpine Desire
In ihren Arbeiten reflektieren die 21 internationalen KünstlerInnen westliche Phantasien von Mythologie, Dramatik, Romantik und Idylle des Alpenraumes, das ambivalente Verhältnis von Mensch und Natur und dessen sozialen und politischen Kontext.

Die aufgeladene Idylle der alpinen Landschaft liegt als Sehnsucht nahe am Abgrund. Hinter dem Visuellen verbergen sich das Schöne und das Grauen in einem dialektischen Alp- Traum.
How to Succeed in the Digital Age
It’s starting to look as if the whirlwind of the Internet revolution might be petering out to a gentle breeze. The customer’s new position of power is now a well-established fact. For the business world, Facebook and Twitter accounts, coupled with an attractive website, now rank high on most checklists for corporate success. But is that really enough?

How fast can an online post by a single disgruntled customer call forth hordes of angry users that can do lasting damage to a company’s reputation? Could data be the key to business success in the future? Success in the Digital Age is the first-ever collection of success stories and reports of real-world experiences by 17 CEOs and leading executives from a diverse range of industries as well as leading academics.
Raimund Abraham & the Austrian Cultural Forum New York
It has been said that the Austrian Cultural Forum, designed by Austrian architect and theorist Raimund Abraham (1933-2010), is the most spectacular modern structure built in New York since the Seagram Building and the Guggenheim Museum. Despite or because of the exceedingly restrictive conditions of the location, Abraham succeeded in producing extraordinary stylistic elements while meeting utilitarian criteria. This publication features contributions on a range of political, historical and aesthetic issues related to the building and its creator.

One Who Loves Knowledge
The thirty-nine articles in this volume, One Who Loves Knowledge, have been contributed by colleagues, students, friends, and family in honor of Richard Jasnow, professor of Egyptology at Johns Hopkins University. Despite his claiming to be just a demoticist, Richard Jasnow's research interests and specialties are broad, spanning religious and historical topics, along with new editions of demotic texts, including most particularly the Book of Thoth. A number of the authors demonstrate their appreciation for Jasnow's contributions to the understanding of this difficult text. The volume also includes other studies on literature, Ptolemaic history, and even the god Thoth himself, and features detailed images and abundant hieroglyphic, hieratic, demotic, Coptic, and Greek texts.
