Episodes in the Life of the Early Modern Learned Book
In Episodes in the Life of the Early Modern Learned Book, Ian Maclean investigates intellectual life through the prism of the history of publishing, academic institutions, journals, and the German book fairs whose evolution is mapped over the long seventeenth century. After a study of the activities of Italian book merchants up to 1621, the passage into print, both locally and internationally, of English and Italian medicine and ‘new’ science comes under scrutiny. The fate of humanist publishing is next illustrated in the figure of the Dutch merchant Andreas Frisius (1630–1675). The work ends with an analysis of the two monuments of the last phase of legal humanism: the Thesauruses of Otto (1725–44) and Gerard Meerman (1751–80).

The Philosophy of Rhythm
Rhythm is the fundamental pulse that animates poetry, music, and dance across all cultures. And yet the recent explosion of scholarly interest across disciplines in the aural dimensions of aesthetic experience--particularly in sociology, cultural and media theory, and literary studies--has yet to explore this fundamental category. This book furthers the discussion of rhythm beyond the discrete conceptual domains and technical vocabularies of musicology and prosody. With original essays by philosophers, psychologists, musicians, literary theorists, and ethno-musicologists, The Philosophy of Rhythm opens up wider-and plural-perspectives, examining formal affinities between the historically int...
Kinder und ihre Peers beim kooperativen Lernen
Im Mittelpunkt der Studie von Torsten Eckermann stehen jene Interaktionsprozesse im Unterricht, in denen ‚Unterschiede‘ zwischen Kindern und ihren Peers ihre soziale Relevanz erhalten, d.h. aktualisiert, bearbeitet und übergangen werden. Die Ergebnisse verweisen darauf, dass die unter den Kindern sozial relevant gemachten Differenzkategorien (z.B. das Alter) mit schul- und unterrichtsbezogenen Leistungskriterien unmittelbar verwoben sind. Weiterhin deuten die Analysen darauf hin, dass neben den ‚klassischen‘ Differenzkategorien (race, class, gender) auch hiervon abweichende Differenzen relevant gemacht werden. Der Autor entfaltet die These, dass die „Externalisierung“ von Differenzen insofern zu relativieren wäre, als Differenzen nicht einfach von der außerschulischen in die schulische Lebenswelt eindringen, sondern auch mit Hilfe schulinterner Unterscheidungen innerhalb der Unterrichtspraxis selbst erzeugt und verstetigt werden.
Bach Perspectives, Volume 8
As the official publication of the American Bach Society, Bach Perspectives has pioneered new areas of research in the life, times, and music of Bach since its first appearance in 1995. Volume 8 of Bach Perspectives emphasizes the place of Bach's oratorios in their repertorial context. These essays consider Bach's oratorios from a variety of perspectives: in relation to models, antecedents, and contemporary trends; from the point of view of musical and textual types; and from analytical vantage points including links with instrumental music and theology. Christoph Wolff suggests the possibility that Bach's three festive works for Christmas, Easter, and Ascension Day form a coherent group lin...
