My way to the Moon
“The word “Geborgenheit” in turn reminds me of an evening at our very modest one-room dwelling. The year was 1940 and I was only 6 years old. We were seated at the table having dinner: my father, my mother and I. My parents talked for a long time and I was just listening without understanding, of course, what they were talking about. All around one could hear the roar of war. At night the Soviet planes bombing Warsaw, during the day the threat of being arrested in the street and shot dead. In that context of hatred, my being so close to people who loved each other (she, German, he, a Pole) resulted in something unforgettable and extraordinary. I felt “geborgen” in the deepest and fullest meaning of that word. Very, very happy, still sitting at the table, I fell asleep.”
Rock Art Studies - News of the World
This is the third in the five-yearly series of surveys of what is happening in rock art studies around the world. As always, the texts reflect something of the great differences in approach and emphasis that exist in different regions. The volume presents examples from Europe, Asia, Africa, and the New World. During the period in question, 1999 to 2004, there have been few major events, although in the field of Pleistocene art many new discoveries have been made, and a new country added to the select list of those with Ice Age cave art. Some regions such as North Africa and the former USSR have seen a tremendous amount of activity, focusing not only on recording but also on chronology, and the conservation of sites. With the global increase of tourism, the management of rock art sites that are accessible to the public is a theme of ever-growing importance.
Humanities
Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Lawrence Boudon became the editor in 2000. The subject categories for Volume 58 are as follows: Electronic Resources for the Humanities Art History (including ethnohistory) Literature (including translations from the Spanish and Portuguese) Philosophy: Latin American Thought Music
