Das Herbarium Göttingen, 1832-1852
In this cultural anthropological examination Frauke Johanna Ahrens enquires into the scientific significance of the herbarium sheets of the Herbarium Göttingen in the period from 1832 to 1852. Based on a historical, object-focused ethnography and praxeology she itemizes how during the establishing phase of the collection institutionalized in 1832 the scientific practices and epistemic interests mutually influenced one another and found expression in the botanical specimens themselves. Each of the five chapters is dedicated to one practice – opening up the collection, ascribing values, acquiring plant material, doing research on herbarium sheets and teaching with herbarium sheets. Together with detailed object descriptions, the analysis emphasizes the materiality of knowledge in this way.
Das Herbarium Göttingen, 1832-1852
In dieser kulturanthropologischen Untersuchung fragt Frauke Johanna Ahrens nach der wissens- und wissenschaftsgeschichtlichen Bedeutung der Herbarbelege des Göttinger Herbariums für den Zeitraum von 1832 bis 1852. Anhand einer historischen, objektfokussierten Ethnografie und Praxeologie schlüsselt sie auf, wie sich die wissenskonstituierenden Praktiken und das wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisinteresse in der Etablierungsphase der 1832 institutionalisierten Sammlung wechselseitig beeinflussten und sich vor allem auch in den botanischen Präparaten niederschlugen. In fünf Kapiteln, denen je eine Praxis - die Sammlung öffnen, Werte zuschreiben, Pflanzenmaterial akquirieren, mit Herbarbelegen forschen, mit Herbarbelegen lehren - gewidmet ist, und begleitet durch detaillierte Objektbeschreibungen wird so die Materialität des Wissens herausgearbeitet.
Von 66 Kunstsachen zum Institut für Völkerkunde 1773 bis 1935/36
The Goettingen University acquired in 1773 a private natural history collection from Christian Wilhelm Buettner, one of its professors. This collection became the core of the University’s Academic Museum. In addition to thousands of items of natural history (minerals, plants, zoological items) 66 Art Things were part of Buettner‘s collection. The publication investigates the question, if and how the emergence of scholarly disciplines was stimulated by processes of forming and working with specific collections, taking the development of the Ethnographic collection starting from the 66 Art Things (1773) to the foundation of the Institute and Collection of Völkerkunde (1935/36) and the emergence of Völkerkunde as a university discipline in Göttingen as an example.
Das Leuchten der Elbe
Wenn dein Gedächtnis futsch ist, kannst du niemandem trauen - nicht einmal dir selbst! Joana Scheer kennt zwar ihre Identität, doch sie erinnert sich an keine einzige Sekunde ihres alten Lebens. Klar ist, dass jemand die junge Frau zum Sterben den Fluten der Elbe überlassen hat. Blöderweise könnte der Täter direkt vor Joana stehen - sie würde ihn nicht erkennen! Zu allem Überfluss wirft ihr früheres Ich mehr Fragen auf, als es Antworten gibt. Wieso hatte Joana fast keine Freunde? Warum wollte sie einen Mann heiraten, der nichts mit ihr gemeinsam hat? Während Kommissarin Krämer und ihre Kollegen ermitteln, versucht der Täter um jeden Preis zu verhindern, dass die Wahrheit ans Lich...
Easy Language – Plain Language – Easy Language Plus
This book shows how accessible communication, and especially easy-to-understand languages, should be designed in order to become instruments of inclusion. It examines two well-established easy-to-understand varieties: Easy Language and Plain Language, and shows that they have complementary profiles with respect to four central qualities: comprehensibility, perceptibility, acceptability and stigmatisation potential. The book introduces Easy and Plain Language and provides an outline of their linguistic, sociological and legal profiles: What is the current legal framework of Easy and Plain Language? What do the texts look like? Who are the users? Which other groups are involved in the production and use of Easy and Plain Language offers? Which qualities are a hazard to acceptability and, thus, enhance their stigmatisation potential? The book also proposes another easy-to-understand variety: Easy Language Plus. This variety balances the four qualities and is modelled in the present book.
Freshwater Biodiversity
Fresh waters are disproportionately rich in species, and represent global hotspots of biodiversity. However, they are also hotspots of endangerment.
Did God Use Evolution?
Drawing from a variety of topics - biology, biblical chronology, and the origin of human language - and showing their relation to one another in solving this question, author Werner Gitt reveals that evolution is not only bad science, it also violates Scripture. Written for the layman, but with a scientific slant, this compelling book devastates Darwinian arguments for the origin of our universe and planet. In helping Christians answer attacks on their faith, Gitt addresses relevant subjects such as: the origin of man, the origin of human language, human behavior, the origin and future of the universe.
