Sprache und Medizin
Mit Geleitworten von Bundesgesundheitsminister Hermann Gröhe, Prof. Dr. Dietrich Grönemeyer und Dr. Eckart von Hirschhausen Medizin und Sprache – kaum zwei Bereiche sind so eng miteinander verwoben wie diese beiden. Das Sprechen ‚in‘ der Medizin und das Sprechen ‚über‘ die Medizin sind seit jeher für die Menschen von Bedeutung. Dieser Sammelband gibt einen breiten Überblick über die Interessen, Perspektiven und Ansätze verschiedenster Disziplinen und Institutionen auf das Themenfeld der Sprache und Kommunikation im medizinischen Umfeld. Dabei stehen Fragen der Wirksamkeit und Heilsamkeit von Sprache ebenso im Fokus wie literaturwissenschaftliche und sprachhistorische Aspekte sowie ethisch-moralische Probleme und Herausforderungen. Die gesammelten Beiträge bilden aktuelle Forschungsansätze und -traditionen zahlreicher Wissenschaften ab, darunter Medizin, Sprachwissenschaft (einschließlich der Sprachdidaktik), Medizingeschichte, Literaturwissenschaft, Medienwissenschaft, Rechtswissenschaft und Philosophie.

Food Preservatives
For centuries man has treated food to prolong its edible life, and nowadays both traditional and modern preservatives are used widely to ensure the satisfactory maintenance of quality and safety of foods. There continues to be increased public concern about the use of food additives, including preservatives, resulting from a perception that some of them may have deleterious effects on health. However, as eating habits have changed with an emphasis on what has been popularly termed a `healthy diet', there is at the same time a concern that reduction in preservative usage could lead to loss of safety and protection from food poisoning. While some preservatives are coming under increasing regul...
Kathak Dance [microform] : a Critical History
Kathak, the classical dance of North India, combines virtuosic footwork and dazzling spins with subtle pantomime and soft gestures. Its repertoire and movement vocabulary show its syncretic origins---it is a dance that is both Muslim and Hindu, both devotional and entertaining, and both male and female. Histories of kathak dance, however, claim that it began as a temple dance, originally performed by a clan of Brahman storytellers called Kathaks who recounted the Hindu epics with expressive gestures. The dance is still largely disseminated by hereditary dance families from the Kathak caste, who are said to have preserved the ancient form while migrating to the Muslim courts. Difficulties ari...
Stuart Succession Literature
Moments of royal succession, which punctuate the Stuart era (1603-1714), occasioned outpourings of literature. Writers, including most of the major figures of the seventeenth century from Jonson, Daniel, and Donne to Marvell, Dryden, and Behn, seized upon these occasions: to mark the transition of power; to reflect upon the political structures and values of their nation; and to present themselves as authors worthy of patronage and recognition. This volume of essays explores this important category of early modern writing. It contends that succession literature warrants attention as a distinct category: appreciated by contemporaries, acknowledged by a number of scholars, but never investigat...

Friedrich Rosen
The German lacuna in Edward Said’s 'Orientalism' has produced varied studies of German cultural and academic Orientalisms. So far the domains of German politics and scholarship have not been conflated to probe the central power/knowledge nexus of Said’s argument. Seeking to fill this gap, the diplomatic career and scholarly-literary productions of the centrally placed Friedrich Rosen serve as a focal point to investigate how politics influenced knowledge generated about the “Orient” and charts the roles knowledge played in political decision-making regarding extra-European regions. This is pursued through analyses of Germans in British imperialist contexts, cultures of lowly diplomat...
Freedom of Speech and Islam
Freedom of speech and expression is considered in the West a high public good and an important social value, underpinned by legislative and ethical norms. Its importance is not shared to the same extent by conservative and devout Muslims, who read Islamic doctrines in ways seemingly incompatible with Western notions of freedom of speech. Featuring experts across a spectrum of fields within Islamic studies, Freedom of Speech and Islam considers Islamic concepts of blasphemy, apostasy and heresy and their applicability in the modern world.
