Stereochemistry - Workbook
This workbook in stereochemistry is designed for students, lecturers and scientists in chemistry, pharmacy, biology and medicine who deal with chiral chemical compounds and their properties. It serves as a supplement to textbooks and seminars and thus provides selected examples for students to practice the use of the conventions and terminology for the exact three-dimensional description of chemical compounds. It contains 191 problems with extended solutions.
Robert Wilson
This book is a comprehensive study of the theatre work of Robert Wilson it details his aesthetic principles and the elements of composition that distinguish his directorial approach, and provides insight into how they operate through practical exercises.
Friedrich Rosen
The German lacuna in Edward Said’s 'Orientalism' has produced varied studies of German cultural and academic Orientalisms. So far the domains of German politics and scholarship have not been conflated to probe the central power/knowledge nexus of Said’s argument. Seeking to fill this gap, the diplomatic career and scholarly-literary productions of the centrally placed Friedrich Rosen serve as a focal point to investigate how politics influenced knowledge generated about the “Orient” and charts the roles knowledge played in political decision-making regarding extra-European regions. This is pursued through analyses of Germans in British imperialist contexts, cultures of lowly diplomat...
The Trouble with Wagner
In this unique and hybrid book, cultural and music historian Michael P. Steinberg combines a close analysis of Wagnerian music drama with a personal account of his work as a dramaturg on the bicentennial production of The Ring of the Nibelung for the Teatro alla Scala Milan and the Berlin State Opera. Steinberg shows how Wagner uses the power of a modern mythology to heighten music’s claims to knowledge, thereby fusing not only art and politics, but truth and lies as well. Rather than attempting to separate value and violence, or “the good from the bad,” as much Wagner scholarship as well as popular writing have tended to do, Steinberg proposes that we confront this paradox and look to the capacity of the stage to explore its depths and implications. Drawing on decades of engagement with Wagner and of experience teaching opera across disciplines, The Trouble with Wagner is packed with novel insights for experts and interested readers alike.
The Digital Double Bind
The Middle East's digital turn has renewed hopes of socio-economic development and political change across the region, but it is also marked by stark contradictions and historical tensions. In this book, Mohamed Zayani and Joe F. Khalil contend that the region is caught in a digital double bind in which the same conditions that drive the state, market, and public immersion in the digital also inhibit change and perpetuate stasis. The Digital Double Bind offers a path-breaking analysis of how the Middle East negotiates its relation to the digital and provides a roadmap for a critical engagement with technology and change in the Global South.
Our Distance from God
In this encounter between reflections on Christian theology and the history of art and music, James D. Herbert considers how specific works of art establish a relation between the divine and the earthbound audiences for whom the art was created. He looks at five case studies over four centuries: the architecture and artworks that glorified Louis XIV at Versailles, the interaction of libretto and music in Richard Wagner's Ring of the Nibelung, Claude Monet's enormous paintings of water lilies mounted at the Orangerie of Paris in 1927, the inaugural performance in 1962 of Benjamin Britten's War Requiem at the new Anglican cathedral in Coventry, and Robert Wilson's recent installation based on the Passion, 14 Stations.
Hallo Nachbar
„Der Wettbewerb richtet sich an alle Menschen, die gerne Geschichten erzählen und diese zu Papier bringen wollen. Erstschreiber sind ausdrücklich erwünscht.“ So stand es in dem Flyer, mit dem im September 2015 für den 1. Lampertheimer Schreibwettbewerb geworben wurde. Zum Einsendeschluss am 31. Januar 2016 wurden 28 Beiträge eingereicht. Die meisten wurden von „Erstschreibern“ verfasst. Der jüngste Teilnehmer war 15, der älteste 65 Jahre alt. In der vorliegenden Anthologie sind 20 dieser Erzählungen enthalten. Das Spektrum reicht vom Krimi über die Romanze bis zur Science Fiction Story. Die Autoren weben Geschichten von guten und von bösen Nachbarn. Sie erzählen von Verständnis und von Missverständnissen, von Zuneigung und Abneigung und von Liebe. Den Leser erwartet eine abwechslungsreiche Sammlung von Kurzgeschichten, bei denen auch der regionale Bezug zum Südhessischen Ried und den Nachbargemeinden Bürstadt und Lampertheim nicht zu kurz kommt.
Absolute Wilson

Übungen zur Stereochemie
Übungen zur Stereochemie richtet sich an Studierende, Lehrende und praktizierende Wissenschaftler der Chemie, Pharmazie, Biologie und Medizin, die sich mit chiralen chemischen Verbindungen und deren Eigenschaften befassen. Als Ergänzung zu Lehrbüchern und Seminaren hilft das Buch, die Konventionen und Terminologie zur exakten räumlichen Beschreibung chemischer Verbindungen an ausgesuchten Beispielen zu üben. So werden nicht nur physiologisch und pharmakologisch relevante organische Verbindungen, sondern auch anorganische Moleküle zur Konfigurations-, Konformations- und Punktgruppenbestimmung sowie stereoselektive Synthesen organisch-chemischer Moleküle präsentiert. Die 191 Aufgaben mit ausführlichen Lösungen enthalten viele Beispiele von Verbindungen mit praktischer Relevanz, die die Autoren während ihrer Lehrtätigkeit und wissenschaftlichen Arbeit gesammelt haben.
