Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: Die besten Ideen kommen mir, wenn ich mir vorstelle, ich bin mein eigener Kunde. (Charles Lazarus, *1923, amerik. Unternehmer). Dieses Zitat stammt aus dem Munde eines erfolgreichen amerikanischen Unternehmers. Was er damit aussagen will, ist noch eindringlicher als der wohlbekannte Ausspruch: Der Kunde ist König. Dieser mittlerweile häufig benutzte Satz ist heute eine Selbstverständlichkeit aber in die Tat umgesetzt wird er oftmals nicht.

Dies ist der Schlüssel zu den besten Ideen, mit dem Ziel, erfolgreich ein Unternehmen zu führen -...

The first comprehensive survey of Hall’s work, this beautifully produced book includes an extensive selection of images, not only of finished work, but also of working drawings that reveal Hall as a consummate draftsman.

The present volume provides a fascinating overview of geometrical ideas and perceptions from the earliest cultures to the mathematical and artistic concepts of the 20th century. It is the English translation of the 3rd edition of the well-received German book “5000 Jahre Geometrie,” in which geometry is presented as a chain of developments in cultural history and their interaction with architecture, the visual arts, philosophy, science and engineering.

Inspired by the Greek mathematics, a new germ of geometry blossomed in the Islamic c...

Volume 4.1 of Michael Müller’s catalogue raisonné examines the issue of whether the Holocaust can be depicted, as well as the artistic approach to evil. It is devoted to works commenting on four paintings by Gerhard Richter entitled "Birkenau" attempting to reappraise a cruel historical fact in the Auschwitz II/Birkenau extermination camp in various artistic forms. The critical commentaries on Richter are accompanied by many less conspicuous, quieter, even wounded works by Müller, which were on show in the Museum im Kulturspeicher Würzburg in 2022/23 and in St. Matthäus Kirche in Berlin in 2023. The catalogue in German, English and Chinese documents the most important works of this difficult artistic encounter, which are then contextualised in a detailed essay by art historian Lukas Töpfer.

Few religious currents have been as influential as the Theosophical. Yet few currents have been so under-researched, and the Brill Handbook of the Theosophical Current thus represents pioneering research. A first section surveys the main people and events involved in the Theosophical Society from its inception to today, and outlines the Theosophical worldview. A second, substantial section covers most significant religions to emerge in the wake of the Theosophical Society - Anthroposophy, the Point Loma community, the I AM religious activity, the Summit Lighthouse Movement, the New Age, theosophical UFO religions, and numerous others. Finally, the interaction of the Theosophical current with contemporary culture - including gender relations, art, popular fiction, historiography, and science - are discussed at length.
