Mein Elternhaus War Nichts Als Eine Mittelstands-Geschichte
Im Fruhjahr 1999 zeigte die Universitatsbibliothek Eichstatt die Ausstellung "Ernst Arnold Bauer sieht James Joyce". Den Festvortrag, der mit dieser Publikation veroffentlicht wird, hielt Ken Monaghan, der Sohn von Joyce's Schwester May. Er erzahlt die Geschichte von Joyce's Dubliner Herkunft und berichtet uber die Lebensumstande, die einen der wohl bedeutendsten Schriftsteller des 20. Jahrhunderts formten. Monaghan entwirft mit allen Sinnen ein unmittelbar durch seine Mutter und seine Verwandten nacherlebtes Gemalde einer bedruckenden Familientragodie, die sowohl fiktiv als auch autobiographisch von James Joyce als Rohmaterial fur sein Werk verwendet wurde.In Verbindung mit den Illustrationen von Ernst Arnold Bauer kann dieses Buch zwei noch nicht so hell ausgeleuchtete Felder in der Wirkungsgeschichte des Werkes von James Joyce starker focussieren: die Lebensgeschichte des grossen Iren aus der Sicht und Erlebniswelt eines weiteren Verwandten einerseits und andererseits die Ausstrahlung seiner bedeutendsten Werke Ulysses und Finnegans Wake in die Bildende Kunst in der Phantasie und durch die Hand von Ernst Arnold Bauer.
The Archaeology and Material Culture of Queenship in Medieval Hungary, 1000–1395
This book explores an alternate history of the power and agency of 30 Hungarian queens over 400 years by a rigorous examination of the material culture connected with their lives. By researching the objects, images, and spaces, it demonstrates how these women expressed and displayed their power. Queens used material culture and space not only to demonstrate their own power to a wide, international audience, but also to consolidate their own position when it was weakened by external circumstances. Both the public and private image of the queen factors significantly in understanding in her own role at the strongly centralized Hungarian court, and, moreover, how her position and person strengthened and complemented that of the king.
Saints and Their Cults
This is a paperback edition of a collection of ten papers by different authors on the cult of saints, first published in hard covers in 1983. Six have been translated from French including a pioneering study by Robert Hertz, one of Durkheim's most eminent pupils. The editor provides a wide-ranging general and historical introduction, and a 100- page annotated bibliography covering material on the subject in all disciplines and in four main languages.
Christian Responses to the Holocaust
Delineates the roles that individuals and their churches played in confronting Hitler. Written by both Jewish and Christian scholars, these essays focus on the Christian responses to Nazism and delineate the roles that individuals and their churches played in confronting Hitler.
European Genizah
This volume includes contributions presented at two conferences, in Mainz and Jerusalem, and presents new discoveries of binding fragments in several European libraries and archives and abroad. It presents newly discovered texts with unknown Jewish writings from the Middle Ages and analyses fragments of well-known texts, such as textual witnesses of Midrashim. One chapter overviews recent discoveries in certain collections, some of them far beyond the geographical horizon of the original project, but certainly all of European origin. Other chapters study palaeographical and codicological issues of manuscript fragments and Ashkenazic inscriptions. A final article refers to the beginnings of scholarly interest in Hebrew binding fragments in Germany and sheds light on the part played by Christian Hebraists in its development.

Information - Innovation - Inspiration
The Bavarian State Library is one of Europe’s largest and most important universal libraries, with unique stocks and collections. In this publication celebrating the library’s 450th anniversary, the authors present a view behind the scenes of this ”Treasury of Knovwledge“. Besides historical topics and descriptions of the most important collections, the articles describe current issues and future challenges – for example the whole issue of mass digitalisation, the roles of net-based user services or library marketing. There is also a detailed account of the Library’s role as the central archive and state library of the Free State of Bavaria. As one of the most important collections of source materials in the world, the Bavarian State Library is guardian of a centuries-old cultural heritage and at the same time positions itself as a modern, innovative service centre for the knowledge society. A selected bibliography completes this anniversary volume.
Bayerische Staatsbibliothek
Durch betont betriebswirtschaftliches Denken im Zusammenhang mit neuen Informationstechnologien sind die Bibliotheken in einen Strukturwandel ungeahnter Grosse und Eigendynamik geraten. Das Verhaltnis von Lehre und Forschung hat sich durch neue Ausbildungsgange nach dem Bologna-Modell massgeblich verandert. So stellt sich mit grosser Eindringlichkeit die Frage nach dem zukunftigen Rollenverstandnis der Bayerischen Staatsbibliothek. Wem hat die Bibliothek zu dienen: der Forschung, der Industrie, der Wirtschaft, der Lehre, der allgemeinen Bildung, der Unterhaltung oder allen zugleich? Es zeigt sich uberraschend, dass diese Frage seit 200 Jahren gestellt, aber nie klar beantwortet wurde. Zunehm...
