Goethe’s Faust and the Divan of Ḥāfiẓ
This book explores the poetic articulations of a shift from a transcendent to an immanent worldview, as reflected in the manner of evaluation of body and soul in Goethe’s Faust and Ḥāfiẓ’ Divan. Focusing on two lifeworks that illustrate their authors’ respective intellectual histories, this cross-genre study goes beyond the textual confines of the two poets’ Divans to compare important building blocks of their intellectual worlds.

Word Order Variation
In the Iranic-Semitic-Turkic contact area, where many languages are described as verb-final, ‘Targets’ (Goals, Recipients, etc.) tend to appear in the immediate postverbal position, a pattern violating the alleged ‘basic word order’. Investigating empirical material, the present volume examines the idea of its contact-induced origin by combining various languages from inside and outside this contact area: the Greek variety Romeyka; Indic Domari; Iranic Balochi, Kurdish, Middle Persian, Parthian, Bactrian and Sogdian; Nilotic Maa; Semitic Arabic and Aramaic; Siberian and Iran-Turkic. The contributors investigate word order variation of transitive, ditransitive, and copula structures as well as intransitives with Targets. Their analyses highlight the relevance of grammatical, discourse-pragmatic, and cognitive principles. The volume highlights the importance of Target structures for linguistic theory by offering new perspectives and will be of interest to typologists and linguists interested in word order variation and information structure.
Na prahu očistce
Obranná aliance je ve válce s rozpínavým Kasimirským císařstvím. A válka se nevyvíjí dobře. Dalším cílem Kasimiřanů je Simeral, hlavní planeta největšího člena aliance – Astonské unie. Admirál Tyler dělá, co může, aby se připravil na nevyhnutelný útok, ale ví, že šance, že astonská flotila odolá kasimirskému náporu, je malá. Kasimiřané ale postupovali příliš rychle a v týlu nechali malou skupinu odříznutých lodí Obranné aliance. Důstojníci, astronauté a mariňáci na těchto lodích nemají prostředky, aby zastavili kasimirský nápor, ale jsou rozhodnuti nepřátelům znepříjemnit život i za cenu ztráty života vlastního.
While the king of Prussia was waging war, who do you think was darning his socks?
Mrs. Hubeau looks after her 40-year-old handicapped son, Michel. Despite many happy moments, her daily life is far from easy, but she faces it with unparalleled courage and generosity. This is a beautiful homage to all the admirable people fighting in the shadows.
The Lords of Lambityeco
The Valley of Oaxaca was unified under the rule of Monte Albán until its collapse around AD 800. Using findings from John Paddock’s long-term excavations at Lambityeco from 1961 to 1976, Michael Lind and Javier Urcid examine the political and social organization of the ancient community during the Xoo Phase (Late Classic period).Focusing on change within this single archaeological period rather than between time periods, The Lords of Lambityeco traces the changing political relationships between Lambityeco and Monte Albán that led to the fall of the Zapotec state. Using detailed analysis of elite and common houses, tombs, and associated artifacts, the authors demonstrate increased politi...
