Männliche Genitalien, insbesondere der Penis, treten sowohl in der Kunst als auch in der schriftlichen Überlieferung bereits frühzeitig in zahlreichen Kulturen weltweit in Erscheinung. Im alten Ägypten wurde dem Penis eine breite Palette von Bedeutungen zugeschrieben, die weit über seine anatomischen Funktionen hinausgehen. Diese reichten von positiven bis hin zu neutralen und negativen Konnotationen. Dieses Buch bietet eine umfassende kulturgeschichtliche Untersuchung der unterschiedlichen Verwendungs- und Darstellungskontexte des Penis im alten Ägypten, mit dem Ziel, die zugrunde liegenden universellen sowie spezifischen Konzepte aus einer möglichst emischen Perspektive detailliert zu erfassen. Der Fokus liegt auf der Analyse der Primärquellen von der prädynastischen Zeit bis zum Ende der Amarnazeit, wobei auch spätere Quellen einbezogen werden. Das Buch dient sowohl als Nachschlagewerk für die symbolische und kulturelle Bedeutung des Penis im alten Ägypten als auch als bedeutender Beitrag zu einem weiterhin tabuisierten Thema.

Digital Humanities is a transformational endeavor that not only changes the perception, storage, and interpretation of information but also of research processes and questions. It also prompts new ways of interdisciplinary communication between humanities scholars and computer scientists. This volume offers a unique perspective on digital methods for and in the humanities. It comprises case studies from various fields to illustrate the challenge of matching existing textual research practices and digital tools. Problems and solutions with and for training tools as well as the adjustment of research practices are presented and discussed with an interdisciplinary focus.
The main theme of this year’s congress is 'Animal lives worth living'. This theme focuses on our responsibility for all animals kept or influenced by humans, to ensure that we can provide a life for them that takes into account all relevant aspects of animal welfare, aided by applied ethology as the key scientific discipline. This not only means avoiding and alleviating suffering but also promoting resilience and positive experiences. By monitoring and interpreting animal behaviour, we gain important insights into each of these aspects of quality of life.
