Friendship and Happiness
This is the first book that explicitly focuses on the relationships between various types of friendship experiences and happiness. It addresses historical, theoretical, and measurement issues in the study of friendship and happiness (e.g., why friends are important for happiness). In order to achieve a balanced evaluation of this area as a whole, many chapters in the book conclude with a critical appraisal of what is known about the role of friendship in happiness, and provide important directions for future research. Experts from different parts of the world provide in-depth, authoritative reviews on the association between different types of friendship experiences (e.g., friendship quantity, quality) and happiness in different age groups and cultures. An ideal resource for researchers and students of positive psychology, this rich, clear, and up-to-date book serves as an important reference for academicians in related fields of psychology such as cross-cultural, developmental and social.

Temporale Satzverbindungen in altosmanischen Prosatexten
Die Arbeit behandelt einen syntaktischen Aspekt des Altosmanischen, i.e. der fruhesten Entwicklungsstufe des heutigen Turkeiturkischen. Anhand eines selbst zusammengestellten Korpus von 50000 Wortern aus neun Prosawerken aus dem 14. und 15. Jahrhundert werden die Moglichkeiten zum Ausdruck von temporalen Relationen untersucht. Relationen dieser Art werden im Deutschen ublicherweise durch temporale Nebensatze ausgedruckt. Durch den tiefgreifenden Einfluss des Persischen auf die fruhe anatolischturkische Schriftsprache konkurrieren genuin turkische Konstruktionen mit Temporalsatzen persischen (indoeuropaischen) Typs. Daneben existieren noch Mischkonstruktionen aus beiden Typen. Die Arbeit untersucht die Art der Ubernahme fremder Konstruktionen, Frequenz und Verhaltnis der verschiedenen Typen zueinander, sowie ihre Entwicklung bis zum modernen Turkeiturkischen. Der Anhang enthalt Teileditionen von drei unpublizierten Texten inklusive Ubersetzung und Faksimile.
A History of Ottoman Political Thought up to the Early Nineteenth Century
In A History of Ottoman Political Thought up to the Early Nineteenth Century, Marinos Sariyannis offers a survey of Ottoman political texts, examined in a book-length study for the first time. From the last glimpses of gazi ideology and the first instances of Persian political philosophy in the fifteenth century until the apologists of Western-style military reform in the early nineteenth century, the author studies a multitude of theories and views, focusing on an identification of ideological trends rather than a simple enumeration of texts and authors. At the same time, the book offers analytical summaries of texts otherwise difficult to find in English.
