Asymmetric Kernel Smoothing
This is the first book to provide an accessible and comprehensive introduction to a newly developed smoothing technique using asymmetric kernel functions. Further, it discusses the statistical properties of estimators and test statistics using asymmetric kernels. The topics addressed include the bias-variance tradeoff, smoothing parameter choices, achieving rate improvements with bias reduction techniques, and estimation with weakly dependent data. Further, the large- and finite-sample properties of estimators and test statistics smoothed by asymmetric kernels are compared with those smoothed by symmetric kernels. Lastly, the book addresses the applications of asymmetric kernel estimation an...
Eine sowjetische Nation
Der Genozid von 1915 im Osmanischen Reich und die Demonstrationen von 1988, die den Zusammenbruch der Sowjetunion mit anstießen, bestimmen unser Bild von Armenien. Doch nicht allein das nationale Trauma oder Repressionen im Staatssozialismus prägten die armenische Nation. Maike Lehmann zeigt, welche Handlungs- und Interpretationsspielräume sich armenische Bürger an der sowjetischen Peripherie in den Jahrzehnten nach 1945 erarbeiteten und wie sie dabei das sozialistische Projekt mit neuen, lokalen Bedeutungen versahen. So trugen sie gleichermaßen zur Legitimierung und Stabilisierung wie auch zur Erosion des Staatssozialismus bei.
The Hammer of the Inquisitors: Brother Bernard Délicieux and the Struggle Against the Inquisition in Fourteenth-Century France
The early fourteenth century saw the resistance of the Franciscans to the conduct of the ecclesiastical Inquisition in the wake of the Cathar heresy, the crisis and destruction of the Spiritual Franciscan movement and the struggle to maintain the unity of France under Philip the Fair. The movement to suppress the Inquisition - unique in the Middle Ages - was conceived of and directed by Bernard Delicieux, one of the last leaders of the Spiritual Franciscans, whose rise to fame and involvement in these controversies forms the focus of this first monographic treatment in 70 years.
Transnational Books for Children 1750-1900
This is the first study to take a comprehensive look at transnational children’s literature in the period before 1900. The chapters examine what we mean by ‘children’s literature’ in this period, as well as what we mean by ‘transnational’ in the context of children’s culture. They investigate who transmitted children’s books across borders (authors, illustrators, translators, publishers, teachers, relatives, readers), through what networks the books were spread (commercial, religious, colonial, public, familial), and how the new local identities of imported texts were negotiated. They ask which kinds of books were the most mobile, and they consider what happens to texts when ...
Geschichte des Leipziger Schulwesens
Es entspricht der allgemeinen Vertiefung der historischen Studien, wenn heute auch auf dem Gebiete der deutschen Schulgeschichte eine ausgebreitete und intensive Tätigkeit herrscht, die ebensowohl auf die Sammlung des seiner ganzen Natur nach unendlich zer streuten Materials wie auf die Bearbeitung irgendwelches Zweiges gerichtet ist. Eine solche zusammenfassende Darstellung auf einem beschränkten Gebiet möchte die vorliegende Arbeit bieten, nicht die Geschichte einer einzelnen Schule, auch nicht die Schul geschichte einer ganzen Landschaft oder einer Periode, wohl aber einer größeren Stadt. Seine Rechtfertigung findet dieser Versuch nicht nur in der Veranstaltung des ganzen Unternehmen...
