Klaus G. Saur - Die Berliner Jahre
Ein großer Verleger, während seiner beruflich aktiven Phase mehrfach stilprägend, geht in den Ruhestand. Klaus G. Saur hat über Jahrzehnte Verlagsprojekte heute beinahe unvorstellbaren Ausmaßes erdacht und umgesetzt. Eine illustre Schar von Autorinnen und Autoren, die ein Stück des Weges mit Klaus G. Saur gegangen ist und seine Berliner Jahre zu einem großen Teil ausmacht, hat aus diesem Anlass ihre persönlichen Erfahrungen und Gedanken zu Papier gebracht. Entstanden ist ein Mosaik von Begegnungen, Bedeutsamem und Amüsantem, das die Jahre Klaus Saurs als Geschäftsführender Gesellschafter beim Verlag Walter de Gruyter nachzeichnet.

The Brain Masters of Vienna
The book comprises biographical notes, of about 1000 words each, with a portrait photo, of 90 influential figures of the famous prewar Viennese school of neuropsychiatry, appearing together for the first time in a single volume.

Our dialogue, which brings together a Sinologist and a scholar of early modern History in Europe, considers periodization as a historical phenomenon, studying the case of the “Renaissance.” Understood in the tradition of J.

Innovation Through Co-operation
LIBER, the principal association of research libraries in Europe, was founded in 1971, under the auspices of the Council of Europe.
