The Soul in the Axiosphere from an Intercultural Perspective, Volume One
The essays collected in this volume form a multifaceted discourse on religious, philosophical, historical, ethnocultural and sociocultural, literary and linguistic issues. A multicultural approach to the problem of the soul allows the presentation of it on a microscale, focused on national and regional specificity, as well as on the macroscale, oriented toward universal values which can be observed in the cultures of peoples distant from each other in both time and space. The book consists of 28 chapters, addressing the fundamental themes of human existence, which find expression in cultural texts in both colloquial and artistic language, and which have a prominent place in anthropological, psychological, metaphysical and theological debates.
The Soul in the Axiosphere from an Intercultural Perspective, Volume Two
This volume gathers together a broad spectrum of evaluations of the soul from different perspectives, including artistic (from literature and the arts), mystic and theological reflections on spirituality from the Christian religion, as well as from the Orient and Ancient Egypt. The contributions in this book will afford the reader a wider perspective on the concept of the soul in its ethical, emotional and theological dimensions, in both European and Non-European cultures and languages, and in artistic, philosophical and religious texts.
Linguistic Worldview(s)
This book explores the concept of linguistic worldview, which is underpinned by the underlying idea that languages, in their lexicogrammatical structures and patterns of usage, encode interpretations of reality that symbolize, shape, and construct speakers’ cultural experience. The volume traces the development of the linguistic worldview conception from its origins in ancient Greece to 20th-century linguistic relativity, Western ethnosemantics, parallel movements in eastern Europe, and contemporary inquiry into languacultures. It outlines the important theoretical issues, surveys the major approaches, and identifies areas of both convergence and discrepancy between them. By proposing thre...
Networking in Late Medieval Central Europe
Exploring the formation of networks across late medieval Central Europe, this book examines the complex interaction of merchants, students, artists, and diplomats in a web of connections that linked the region. These individuals were friends in business ventures, occasionally families, and not infrequently foes. No single activity linked them, but rather their interconnectivity through matrices based in diverse modalities was key. Partnerships were not always friendship networks, art was sometimes passed between enemies, and families created for financial gain. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the chapters focus on inclusion and exclusion within intercultural networks, both interpersonal and artistic, using a wide spectrum of source materials and methodological approaches. The concept of friends is considered broadly, not only as connections of mutual affection but also simply through business relationships. Families are considered in terms of how they helped or hindered local integration for foreigners and the matrimonial strategies they pursued. Networks were also deeply impacted by rivalry and hostility.
Werte und Paradigmen zwischen Wandel und Kontinuität
Der vorliegende Band setzt sich zum Ziel, die Brüchigkeit, Konstruiertheit und historische Kontingenz von kulturellen und gesellschaftlichen Werten und Paradigmen einer literaturwissenschaftlichen und sprachwissenschaftlichen Reflexion zu unterziehen. Vor einem diachronen und synchronen Hintergrund fragen die einzelnen Beiträge des Bandes nach den vergangenen und aktuellen, kritisch-reflexiven Zugängen zu unabschließbaren Debatten um Herausbildung neuartiger Schicksalsgemeinschaften. Der Wandel im Sinne von Re-Formulierung, Neu-Codierung, Hybridisierung, Verschiebung der Semantiken und Diskurse wird dabei sowohl anhand literarischer Texte wie auch sprachkritischer Analysen verfolgt.
