The Knauff Family: from Germany to Indiana
This book began as a labor of love for my children. I grew up within 15 miles of most of my great-grandparents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. I saw all of them frequently and knew them well. I listened to the adults tell of letters they received from family members who lived from one coast to the other. Many of them I never met, but I knew them through their own words. Sometimes one or another would visit, but I really knew more about them and their families from hearing their letters. Fortunately, some of the letters were kept so I have read them again in recent years.

Latin Scientific Literature, 1450-1850
During the early modern period, the emergence of what ultimately became modern science took place mainly in Latin, the international language of educated discourse of the era. Hundreds of thousands of scientific texts were published in Latin from the invention of print around 1450 to the demise of Latin as a language of science around 1850. Despite its importance, our knowledge of this literature is extremely limited. This book aims to provide an overview of this area, the first ever to be written. It does so, not from the perspective of a natural scientist or a historian of science, but of a literary scholar. Instead of the scientific content or methodology of the respective works, it focus...
Building a Common Past
How did a kremlin, a fortified monastery or a wooden church in Russia become part of the heritage of the entire world? Corinne Geering traces the development of international cooperation in conservation since the 1960s, highlighting the role of experts and sites from the Soviet Union and later the Russian Federation in UNESCO and ICOMOS. Despite the ideological divide, the notion of world heritage gained momentum in the decades following World War II. Divergent interests at the local, national and international levels had to be negotiated when shaping the Soviet and Russian cultural heritage displayed to the world. The socialist discourse of world heritage was re-evaluated during perestroika and re-integrated as UNESCO World Heritage in a new state and international order in the 1990s.
