A Crimson Line to the Bright Horizon
Fereshte Teyfouri's writings focussing on Sufi thought and mystical concepts are presented with the original Persian texts and an English translation to introduce her poignant view of existence to a wider audience. The poetic miniatures muse on existentialist concepts, stemming from the perspective of her life in Iran and later Germany - and a visceral sense of not belonging - but with the dilemmas of alienation and displacement counterbalanced by the sentiments being expressed using Sufi terms, but sometimes from the standpoint of inanimate objects: tar, blotting paper, the cleansing nature of an eraser. Fereshte Teyfouri, lecturer in Persian at the Westfalische Wilhelms-Universitat, Munster, Persian author and editor, translator for the German courts. Natalie H. Shokoohy (translator) architectural historian.
Anekdotisches Erzählen
Die Buchreihe stellt die Funktion kleiner Textsorten in publizistischen, wissenschaftlichen und administrativen Kontexten in den Mittelpunkt. Sie reagiert damit auf die Aktualität und Schlagkraft kurzer Formen vor dem Hintergrund medialer Mobilitätsschübe, knapper Aufmerksamkeitsressourcen und neuer Kommunikationsökonomien. Die Einzeluntersuchungen sind zudem von der Frage geleitet, welche Wirksamkeit eine Vielfalt von unscheinbaren Genres wie Skizze, Abstract, Notiz, Aphorismus, Protokoll, Exzerpt, Essay, Artikel, Glosse etc. in der Organisation und Vermittlung von Wissen auf diversen Praxisfeldern entfaltet haben - von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart.
Wassermaler und Hungerkünstler
"Fur die meisten Menschen bedeutet die Kunst einen Kontakt mit ihrer Kopie. Es handelt sich grundsatzlich um eine elektronische Reproduktion des Originals, das nicht selten unglaublich gross oder klein -- im Vergleich zu dem Vorbild -- zu sein scheint. Das Hauptmerkmal dieser Massenkultur ist eine absolute Storung der raumlichen Ordnung der Dinge: Man reisst die Bilder von den Wanden und die Skulpturen von dem Boden ab. Montierte Filme werden wieder in Fragmente eingeteilt, und die Musik lasst sich dekomponieren, um nur ihren Platz in digitalisierten Musikbestanden zu finden. Wahrscheinlicher wird in solcher Realitat sowohl die Verdinglichung (Verwandlung in einfache Dinge) als auch die Inko...

"This is a coded computer listing of all Dutch nationals arriving in the United States in the years 1820 through 1880, arranged alphabetically by surname as contained in the National Archives customs passenger lists of ships arriving at Atlantic and Gulf Coast ports." -- Intro.
A Course in Morphometrics for Biologists
This book frames and demonstrates the best of modern morphometric methods, bridging the gap between biostatistics and organismal biology.
Silenced Facts
In response to the silence that continues to shroud Austria’s historical past, Austrian literature after 1950 wants to retrace an untold history that left its marks in mental schemata and cultural clichés. The question how literature can refer to the facts silenced by a political unconscious, the question of literary reference and reality description, lies at the core of Austrian literature since the 1950’s. This book traces the development of contemporary Austrian fiction from the 1950s to the 1990s, showing how the Vienna Group’s literary reductionism led to gesture of mere pointing in happening and performance. While strongly indebted to the experimental techniques of the Vienna Group, later Austrian authors such as Thomas Bernhard, Peter Handke, Peter Rosei, and Gerhard Roth employ literary forms and extra-literary media prone to the indexical in an attempt to cut through the net of linguistic and cultural clichés, alluding to the microfascisms latent in common percepts, and indexing a reality that eludes plain description.
Peroxiporins
To produce energy, aerobic organisms transform oxygen molecules into water. This reductive mechanism yields toxic radical intermediates, collectively known as reactive oxygen species (ROS). Paradoxically, these physiological processes entail the production of potentially damaging species. Evolution has turned this apparent disadvantage into an opportunity for transmitting information. As a result, redox signaling within the cell is an efficient exquisitely organized process. A key element for its regulation is the physical separation of sources and targets into different cell compartments. Peroxiporins, H2O2 transporting proteins spanning biological membranes, distribute the signal from emit...
