This comprehensive volume provides teachers, researchers and education professionals with cutting edge knowledge developed in the last decades by the educational, behavioural and neurosciences, integrating cognitive, developmental and socioeconomic approaches to deal with the problems children face in learning mathematics.

This forward-thinking collection brings together over sixty essays that invoke images to summon, interpret, and argue with visual studies and its neighboring fields such as art history, media studies, visual anthropology, critical theory, cultural studies, and aesthetics.

The book is fluid in relation to disciplines; it is frequently inventive in relation to guiding theories; it is unpredictable in its allegiance and interest in the past of the discipline--reflecting the ongoing growth of visual studies.
Hans-Gert Roloff, Emeritus an der Freien Universität Berlin, hat mit der von ihm initiierten und durchgesetzten Etablierung des Studiengebietes Mittlere Deutsche Literatur grundlegende Impulse für die systematische Erforschung der Zeit zwischen Spätmittelalter und Aufklärung gegeben. Zum 70. Geburtstag von Hans-Gert Roloff präsentiert der vorliegende Band 21 Studien, die der Jubilar zwischen 1967 und 1998 der deutschen Literatur des 16. Jahrhunderts gewidmet hat. In ihrer exemplarischen Repräsentanz stellen diese kleinen Schriften einen Vorlauf zu einer Literaturgeschichte der Mittleren Deutschen Literatur dar. Sie machen deutlich, daß die Literatur dieser Zeit in ihrer ästhetisch-gesellschaftlichen Funktionalität nur aus der Spannung der deutsch-lateinischen Zweisprachigkeit und dem Kontext der europäischen Literatur heraus verstanden werden kann.
