Digital new deal: the quest for a natural law in a digital society
The quest for a natural law that can be applied to a digital society may sound like an oxymoron, but it is a necessary quest if we hope to institute a “Digital New Deal”: Hence the title of this book. Today once again, mass media is disrupting society, much as radio and cinema were used to buttress totalitarianism in the 1920s … or even worse, in the 15th century, when the printing of the Bible unleashed 100 years of war, plague and instability. Things get messy when people disagree on facts rather than ideas. Natural law springs from the features of the physical world, which contains boundaries (an inside and an outside), limited resources, living individuals, objects, living animals,...

Acta Conventus Neo-Latini Monasteriensis
Since 1971, the International Congress for Neo-Latin Studies has been organised every three years in various cities in Europe and North America. In August 2012, Münster in Germany was the venue of the fifteenth Neo-Latin conference, held by the International Association for Neo-Latin Studies. The proceedings of the Münster conference have been collected in this volume under the motto „ Litterae neolatinae, sedes et quasi domicilia rerum religiosarum et politicarum – Religion and Politics in Neo-Latin Literature”. Forty-five individual and five plenary papers spanning the period from the Renaissance to the present offer a variety of themes covering a range of genres such as history, literature, philology, art history, and religion. The contributions will be of relevance not only for scholarly readers, but also for an interested non-professional audience.

Der Schein der Person
Wie wurden Menschen in den Jahrhunderten vor der Fotografie, vor dem Fingerabdruck und der DNA-Analyse identifiziert? Wie wurden sie beschrieben, damit andere, die sie noch nie gesehen hatten, sie erkennen konnten? "Steckbrief" und "Passport" sind Begriffe des Mittelalters. Von ihrer Geschichte handelt dieses Buch, von Kennzeichen und Portraits, von Papieren und Fälschungen. So sehr wir überzeugt davon sind, wir selbst zu sein, beweisen können wir es nur mit den machtvollen Papieren, die andere für uns ausgestellt haben. Die Geschichten von "Steckbrief" und "Passport" werden deswegen auch am Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts immer wieder neu erzählt: in den Debatten um DNA-profiling und Biometrie, auf dem Schwarzmarkt für gestohlene Pässe und Identitäten und im Schicksal der papierlosen Flüchtlinge. Wer ist wer? Und womit kann er es beweisen?
