Ting taler til os. Desværre kan vi ikke altid finde ud af at lytte til deres historier. Den kunst mestrer bidragyderne, som tæller arkæologer, konservatorer, kunsthistorikere og historikere i Tings tale heldigvis, og de kan derfor give tingene en stemme. I dette nummer vækkes følgende genstande til live: Muleposen Farver på kældervæggene i det tidligere Statsfængsel i Horsens Geigertælleren Tre guldaldermalerier af Jørgen Sonne Tenvægte af ler Astrid Noacks skulptur ”Sovende barn” Kolding under pestudbruddet i 1654
I anledning af brødremenighedsbyen Christiansfelds 250-års jubilæum kaster danske og udenlandske forskere nyt lys over forudsætningerne for grundlæggelsen i 1773 og etableringen af den by, som stod færdig omkring 1800. Christiansfeld blev anlagt som menighedskoloni af den europæiske brødremenighed, og bogens forfattere viser, at byens fremkomst netop skal forstås på baggrund af, at menigheden var en international menighed. På den ene side trak Christiansfeld på ressourcer fra de øvrige brødremenighedsbyer, på den anden side bidrog byen til brødre-menighedens globale virksomhed. I årtierne forud for Christiansfelds grundlæggelse havde brødrene søgt at opbygge velvilje hos først Frederik 5. og senere Christian 7., og det arbejde bar frugt med invitationen til at opføre en by på kongens mark.

Drawing on unpublished archival material, this volume compares Moravian economic practice in three different mission-settings, to demonstrate how Moravian practices evolved during the 18th century as part of a globalizing world and economy. Delivering in-depth analysis of the far-reaching and deep seated effects of missionary activity on indigenous communities and social relations, it explores how different economic contexts had an impact on the missionaries' relations with Indigenous and slave-populations in empire. Petterson provides an insight how the missionaries worked, lived among various non-European peoples, and how they organised themselves and their surroundings at a time of changi...
One-in-seven adults and one-in-five children in the United States live in poverty. Individuals and families living in povertyÊnot only lack basic, material necessities, but they are also disproportionally afflicted by many social and economic challenges. Some of these challenges include the increased possibility of an unstable home situation, inadequate education opportunities at all levels, and a high chance of crime and victimization. Given this growing social, economic, and political concern, The Hamilton Project at Brookings asked academic experts to develop policy proposals confronting the various challenges of AmericaÕs poorest citizens, and to introduce innovative approaches to addressing poverty.ÊWhen combined, the scope and impact of these proposals has the potential to vastly improve the lives of the poor. The resulting 14 policy memos are included in The Hamilton ProjectÕs Policies to Address Poverty in America. The main areas of focus include promoting early childhood development, supporting disadvantaged youth, building worker skills, and improving safety net and work support.

August Krogh, the son of a brewer, studied zoology in Copenhagen and earned his doctoral degree under the physiologist Christian Bohr, the father of the world-renowned nuclear physicist Niels Bohr. Krogh's unusual ability to construct instruments and complex apparatuses and his intuitive understanding of physical principles made it possible for him to improve on Bohr's methods. His findings led him to challenge Christian Bohr's ideas about oxygen secretion, and when Bohr refused to accept his findings, Krogh unwillingly came into a painful conflict with his own mentor. Krogh's continued studies of how oxygen is supplied to the tissues led to his realization that the blood flow in the finest ...
