Weight Management

Weight management is a multi- and cross-disciplinary challenge. This book covers many etiological and diagnostic aspects of weight-related disorders and their treatment. This book explains how body weight influences and is influenced by the brain, hormones and immune system, diet, physical activity, posture and gait, and the social environment. This book also elucidates the health consequences of significantly low or pathologically increased body weight. Furthermore, ideas on how to influence and manage body weight including anti-obesity medical devices, diet counselling, artificial sweeteners, prebiotics and probiotics, proanthocyanidins, bariatric surgery, microbiota transplantation, warming, physical exercise, music and psychological therapy are discussed.

Minuit

"How does a novel accrue value? How do certain new and unknown authors and their works make their way from obscurity into the pantheon of the greats, or—at least—the firmament of the stars?" Minuit examines the role played by French publishing house Editions de Minuit in altering the conception of literary France, not once but twice. The history of Les Editions de Minuit is an integral part of the history of the literary field; in Minuit, Spalding's work captures many of the cultural dimensions of literary production and dissemination at the height of France’s post-war intellectual and literary effervescence, and again, in the more recent period, when Minuit became the vehicle for French literature’s ‘postmodern’ turn.

Ernaux, Redonnet, Bâ et Ben Jelloun

Dans La Femme gelée (1981) d'Ernaux, Splendid Hôtel (1986) de Redonnet, Une si Longue Lettre (1979) de Bâ, et dans L'Enfant de sable (1985) et La Nuit sacrée (1987) de Ben Jelloun, les personnages féminins principaux sont déchirés entre les valeurs traditionnelles acquises pendant l'enfance et les valeurs modernes de sociétés en pleine évolution. Acceptant et prenant leurs responsabilités, ces personnages surmontent les épreuves de la vie et deviennent des membres actifs de la société, adoptant de nouveaux référents identitaires tout en conservant ceux du passé. L'évolution vers l'identité rhizomatique caractérise donc ces personnages féminins d'un nouveau genre à l'aube du XXIème siècle.

Körper erzählen

Wie kann man sich im Maghreb des 20. Jahrhunderts den postkolonialen Körper vorstellen? Susanne Kaiser findet Antworten hierauf in den literarischen Werken von Assia Djebar und Tahar Ben Jelloun, die hier zum ersten Mal unter der Fragestellung, was der Körper ist, verglichen werden. Es zeigt sich, dass nach über 100 Jahren der unterschiedlichsten kulturellen, sozialen und religiösen Einflüsse Konzepte von Körperlichkeit vielschichtig und immer in Bewegung sind: zwischen kolonialen Praktiken und gesellschaftlichen Zwängen, zwischen Disziplinierung und Widerstand, zwischen sozialer Konstruktion und Determinismus, zwischen erzählenden und erzählten Körpern. Erzählen, Sprache und Gesellschaft »verkörpern« sich dabei auf je eigene Weise.
