Magisterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2002 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Sonstiges, Note: 1, Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main (Institut für Kinder- und Jugendbuchforschung), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der Literaturforschung fanden Fantasy-Rollenspiele bisher kaum Beachtung; sie wurden als Populärkultur betrachtet und deshalb nicht näher untersucht.

Es liegen jedoch nur wenige Arbeiten über ihren Gehalt als Texte vor. Mit Beginn des neuen Jahrtausends sieht sich die Germanistik jedoch mit noch einer weiteren Neuerung k...

Danger awaits Drizzt Do’Urden and Catti-brie on the high seas in this fourth and final installment in the Legacy of the Drow series It has been six years since the fateful Battle of Mithral Hall; six long years during which Drizzt Do’Urden and Catti-brie have been away from the only place they ever truly felt at home.

Passage to Dawn is the fourth book in the Legacy of the Drow series and the tenth book in the Legend of Drizzt series.

Steel tanks have been used for underground storage of petroleum products and derivatives for about 30 years.

This report summarizes the different recovery and treatment techniques applicable to hydrocarbon contaminated soil and water due to tank leaks. Detection and prevention are briefly discussed and some examples of available equipment are given.
