The Sustainable Museum is the first book to outline a coherent strategy for the direction of museums, as it relates to sustainability in the museum and heritage sector. Arguing that museums must place sustainability at the centre of all their activities, if they are to become key actors with a clear societal role, Garthe considers the issues that museums will likely face as they take on their new roles. Presenting case studies from a wide range of museums around the world, the book considers different ways of implementing sustainability in different types and sizes of institutions. Whilst the book clearly outlines the need for change, it also provides guidance about how to change. Garthe doe...

Joseph Haydn's symphonies and string quartets are staples of the concert repertory, yet many aspects of this founding genius of the Viennese Classical style are only beginning to be explored. From local Kapellmeister to international icon, Haydn achieved success by developing a musical language aimed at both the connoisseurs and amateurs of the emerging musical public. In this volume, the first collection of essays in English devoted to this composer, a group of leading musicologists examines Haydn's works in relation to the aesthetic and cultural crosscurrents of his time. Haydn and His World opens with an examination of the contexts of the composer's late oratorios: James Webster connects ...
Im 18. Jahrhundert galt das Herzogtum Württemberg unter den Staaten des Heiligen Römischen Reichs Deutscher Nation als arm: Es verfügte über keine Bodenschätze. Dafür hatte es in den Augen seines Herzogs, Karl Eugen von Württemberg (reg. 1737-1793), eine aufgeschlossene, ja bildungshungrige Bevölkerung. Dies veranlasste die Gründung der Hohen Karlsschule, die Zeit ihres Bestehens viele berühmte Persönlichkeiten hervorbrachte - nicht zuletzt Friedrich Schiller. Im Anschluss an das biographische Lexikon "Die Schüler der Hohen Karlsschule" (2011) legt Werner Gebhardt mit diesem Band das Lexikon über ihre Lehrer und Betreuer vor. Damit wird ein wichtiges Hilfsmittel verfügbar, die Lebenswege des Karlsschulpersonals nachzuschlagen, zu erkunden oder neu zu entdecken. Ergänzt wird der Band durch ausgewählte Nachdrucke schwer zugänglicher Erinnerungen an die Karlsschulzeit.
