Warsaw. The Jewish Metropolis
Warsaw was once home to the largest and most diverse Jewish community in the world. It was a center of rich varieties of Orthodox Judaism, Jewish Socialism, Diaspora Nationalism, Zionism, and Polonization. This volume is the first to reflect on the entire history of the Warsaw Jewish community, from its inception in the late 18th century to its emergence as a Jewish metropolis within a few generations, to its destruction during the German occupation and tentative re-emergence in the postwar period. The highly original contributions collected here investigate Warsaw Jewry’s religious and cultural life, press and publications, political life, and relations with the surrounding Polish society. This monumental volume is dedicated to Professor Antony Polonsky, chief historian of the new Warsaw Museum for the History of Polish Jews, on the occasion of his 75th birthday.
Handbook of Research on Key Dimensions of Occupational Safety and Health Protection Management
Much remains to be known about occupational safety and health, occupational diseases, legislation, practices, and cases worldwide, as well as the implications for sustainable development in different countries in pandemic crisis conditions. Thus, a better understanding of the different safety and health management developments across different contexts to assess their impact on sustainability is needed. The Handbook of Research on Key Dimensions of Occupational Safety and Health Protection Management discusses the necessity to protect the workforce and the importance of occupational safety and health management. This book will encourage organizations to create a preventative safety and health culture. Covering topics such as economic development, employment injury insurance, and personnel security, this book is an excellent resource for managers of public and private organizations, executives, professionals, researchers, policymakers, human resource managers, government authorities, professionals, students, and academicians.
The Jews of Europe in the Middle Ages (tenth to Fifteenth Centuries)
This collection aims at a comprehensive (and comprehensible) overview describing the variety of historical experience for European Jewries from c. 1000 to c. 1500. Regional overviews are supplemented by studies on cultural, economic, social, and linguistic aspects as well as by portraits of individual (northern) Jewish communities. The collection highlights the similarities and differences among the various European Jewish cultures, demonstrating that these cultures were no less European than they were Jewish. At the same time, the Jewish heritage has deeply influenced medieval and modern European majority cultures. This cultural symbiosis was epitomized in the European Jewish community ("kabal, aljama).
Kaya Keeps Her Cool
"It's Christmas time, and one snowy night Kaya finds herself on a rescue mission to round up five utterly neglected, malnourished horses. Why has no one reported the loss of the horses? Where do they come from? There's something fishy here, and Kaya and her friends set out to find out just what it is. But even if they find the owner, can Kaya help return them all-- even the one she's fallen hopelessly in love with?"--Page 4 of cover
Projektfeld Ausstellung / Project Scope: Exhibition Design
The book is a fundamental reference work for exhibition designers, architects, and museum professionals who want to adequately conceive, design, plan, and produce clearly focused thematic exhibitions. Each thematic field represents different challenges for an exhibition design. This typology by Bertron Schwarz Frey elaborates the special features of the various thematic fields – nature, archeology, history, art, and science. Sketches, floor plans, visualizations, and photographs illustrate the approach, whose essential structure remains the same while finding a different solution for each theme. For students of architecture, interior design, exhibition design, scenography, and visual communication it is also useful as an introduction to the subject. The book presents current exhibitions including the Museum für Naturkunde and the Jewish Museum in Berlin, the Pommersches Landesmuseum in Greifswald, and the Württembergisches Landesmuseum in Stuttgart. Ulrich Schwarz has been professor of design at the Berlin University of the Arts since 2000.
Imagination und animation
Aus gesprächsanalytischer Perspektive untersucht die vorliegende Arbeit ein mentales Phänomen: Imagination in Gesprächen. In Verbindung von Interaktionaler Linguistik und Kognitiver Semantik wird Imagination als ein Prozess modelliert, in dem Sprecher gemeinsam szenisch strukturierte mentale Räume schaffen. Imagination wird damit sowohl als konversationelle Aktivität, als auch als Prozess gemeinsamer Kognition (Shared Cognition) verstanden. Die empirische Grundlage bildet ein Korpus deutscher und spanischer Gespräche. Untersucht werden Sequenzen, in denen die Sprecher die Rolle von Figuren übernehmen, deren Äußerungen animieren und sich dabei in eine imaginierte Szene versetzen. Gewählt werden ausschließlich Daten, in denen die Sprecher keine Rede wiedergeben (also vergangene Äußerungen rekonstruieren), sondern ein fiktives, hypothetisches, negiertes oder generisches Ereignis "aufführen". Dies deckt ein breites Spektrum an konversationellen Kontexten ab, das vom interaktiven Entwerfen zukünftiger Handlungen über gemeinsame Fiktionalisierungen bis zur Animation von Äußerungen in grammatischen Konstruktionen reicht.
