Ungewollt
Sophie ist ein Kuckuckskind. Nach einer von Kälte, Ablehnung und Gewalt geprägten Kindheit erfährt sie erst im Alter von 35 Jahren, dass ihr Vater nicht ihr Vater ist. Erneut tief verletzt von den Lügen ihrer Jugend und der Erkenntnis, dass sie sich jahrelang um die Liebe und Zuneigung des falschen Mannes bemüht hat, begibt sie sich auf die Suche nach der Wahrheit. Ein jahrelanger, dramatischer Kampf um die Ermittlung ihres tatsächlichen Vaters beginnt. Bence, ihr ungarischer Erzeuger, setzt Himmel und Hölle in Bewegung, um die amtliche Feststellung seiner Vaterschaft zu verhindern. Der schwerreiche Unternehmer geht dazu bis zum Bundesverfassungsgericht. Dabei übersieht er jedoch etwas Entscheidendes: Seine Tochter hat nicht nur seine Augen geerbt, sondern auch seine Beharrlichkeit. Weder das jahrelange Warten auf Gerichtsbeschlüsse noch die unzähligen persönlichen Angriffe aus der Familie ihres vermeintlichen Vaters oder der Verlust des gerade erst gewonnenen Halbbruders, der sich von ihr abwendet, können sie von ihrem Weg abbringen.

Taking Stock
The volume examines the proliferation of inventorying models and practices as cultural techniques of knowledge organization and production during the long nineteenth century. While inventories are still broadly treated as raw data and unprocessed source materials, the book shows how they function as complex media formats, intersecting and interfering with other material techniques to produce, store, distribute, organize and process cultural information. How do inventories work against and in dialogue with other media of collection, storage and retrieval such as catalogs, indexes, bibliographies, and archives; what new media configurations do techniques of inventorying enable and how, in turn, are such techniques shaped by the media channels and formats they employ; what is at stake in the critical effort of "taking stock", whether as commercial, bureaucratic, literary, historiographical, or scientific operations; finally, what do such operations tell us specifically about the production and circulation of knowledge in the German nineteenth century?
