Crabtracks
The essays in this collection celebrate the signal achievement of Dieter Riemenschneider in helping found and consolidate the study of postcolonial anglophone literatures in Germany and Europe. As well as poems, a short story, drawings of the Indian scene (the first, and abiding, focus of this scholar’s work), and ‘letters’ of reminiscence (one quite grave), there are revealing contributions of a literary-historical nature on the establishment of anglophone (especially African) literatures as an academic discipline within Germany, the UK, and Northern Europe generally, as well as a group of searching reflections on such topics of postcolonial import as globalization and the applicabili...
Handbook of British Romanticism
The Handbook of British Romanticism is a state of the art investigation of Romantic literature and theory, a field that probably changed more quickly and more fundamentally than any other traditional era in literary studies. Since the early 1980s, Romantic studies has widened its scope significantly: The canon has been expanded, hitherto ignored genres have been investigated and new topics of research explored. After these profound changes, intensified by the general crisis of literary theory since the turn of the millennium, traditional concepts such as subjectivity, imagination and the creative genius have lost their status as paradigms defining Romanticism. The handbook will feature discu...
Biofictions
Biofictions sets out to explore this renewed interest in Romantic artist-figures in the context of the current renaissance of "life-writing."
Synesthesia and the Arts
This study explores the relationship between synesthesia--the experience of a sensation in one perceptual domain triggering a sensation in another perceptual domain--and the arts (including painting, photography, music and literature). Its aim is twofold: to introduce readers as yet unfamiliar with synesthesia to this intriguing phenomenon by focusing on its impact on the creation and reception of art; and to alert readers already conversant with synesthesia in its many manifestations to its potential to encourage fresh ways of approaching art, of understanding the part played by our bodies in its production and receipt and, by extension, of reassessing our position in nature as humans.
Intraoperative Irradiation
International radiation oncologists, surgeons, and scientists comprehensively review the techniques, indications, and results of using intraoperative electrons (IOERT) and high-dose rate brachytherapy (HDR-IORT). State-of-the-art topics range from methods and techniques of treatment and issues of normal tissue/organ tolerance to IORT, to techniques and results by disease-site, as well as future possibilities. The disease-site chapters cover every body part for which the potential merit of IORT has been demonstrated, with disease-specific treatment factors presented by a radiation oncologist and a surgeon. The diseases range from GI cancers to CNS and breast malignancies. International in authorship and comprehensive in scope, Intraoperative Irradiation: Techniques and Results offers a cutting-edge resource and reference for surgeons, radiation oncologists, physicists, anesthesiologists, medical oncologists, and all others involved in providing IORT and HDR-IORT procedures and cancer care today.
Jenseits der Todesschwelle
In diesem Buch wird der Mensch, dieses Zwischenwesen zwischen Tier und Halbgott, in der ganzen Weite seiner Erscheinungsweisen von der Geburt bis zum Tod, vom Diesseits zum Jenseits dargestellt. Metaphysische Erlebnisse, Nahtod-Erfahrungen, Berichte Verstorbener und die großen Themen Wiedergeburt und Reinkarnation werden einer kritischen, aber wohlwollenden Analyse unterzogen. Rätselhafte Phänomene und paranormale Fähigkeiten von Menschen und Tieren werden vor dem Leser ausgebreitet. Ausführlich wird die Frage nach dem Verhältnis von Materie und Bewusstsein, Gehirn und Unsterblichkeit untersucht. Aphorismen tiefster menschlicher Weisheit in der Einleitung und am Ende des Buches kreisen das Thema Unsterblichkeit ein und stimmen darauf ein. Hubertus Mynarek studierte Philosophie, Psychologie und Theologie; Dr. Theol; Mag. Phil; Habilitation an der Universität Würzburg; lehrte als Professor an den Universitäten Bamberg und Wien; schuf das Konzept einer ökologischen Religionsphilosophie und eines ökologischen Humanismus; Autor zahlreicher Bücher zu wichtigen weltanschaulichen Fragen.
