Stille Nacht
23. Dezember 2020: Ein kleiner illustrer Kreis wurde zu einer inoffiziellen Jahresabschlussfeier in die Geschäftsstelle im Stadion eingeladen. Etwa zur gleichen Zeit versammelt sich Severin mit dem harten Kern der Eagles etwas abseits der mächtigen West-Tribüne, um Mik zu ehren, der dort vor zwei Jahren in die Tiefe gesprungen und zu Tode gekommen ist. Die Trauer wird jäh unterbrochen, als zwei schwarze Kleinbusse auf die Rampe preschen und fünf Vermummte herausspringen. Mit roher Gewalt verschaffen sie sich Zutritt zu den Geschäftsräumen und zwingen wenig später ein gutes Dutzend Geiseln in die Fahrzeuge. Severin und Kevin verfolgen die Fahrzeuge und müssen mit ansehen, wie der Bus...

Wagner's Melodies
Since the 1840s, critics have lambasted Wagner for lacking the ability to compose melody. But for him, melody was fundamental - 'music's only form'. This incongruity testifies to the surprising difficulties during the nineteenth century of conceptualizing melody. Despite its indispensable place in opera, contemporary theorists were unable even to agree on a definition for it. In Wagner's Melodies, David Trippett re-examines Wagner's central aesthetic claims, placing the composer's ideas about melody in the context of the scientific discourse of his age: from the emergence of the natural sciences and historical linguistics to sources about music's stimulation of the body and inventions for 'automatic' composition. Interweaving a rich variety of material from the history of science, music theory, music criticism, private correspondence and court reports, Trippett uncovers a new and controversial discourse that placed melody at the apex of artistic self-consciousness and generated problems of urgent dimensions for German music aesthetics.

The Power of Urban Water
Water is a global resource for modern societies - and water was a global resource for pre-modern societies. The many different water systems serving processes of urbanisation and urban life in ancient times and the Middle Ages have hardly been researched until now. The numerous contributions to this volume pose questions such as what the basic cultural significance of water was, the power of water, in the town and for the town, from different points of view. Symbolic, aesthetic, and cult aspects are taken up, as is the role of water in politics, society, and economy, in daily life, but also in processes of urban planning or in urban neighbourhoods. Not least, the dangers of polluted water or of flooding presented a challenge to urban society. The contributions in this volume draw attention to the complex, manifold relations between water and human beings. This collection presents the results of an international conference in Kiel in 2018. It is directed towards both scholars in ancient and mediaeval studies and all those interested in the diversity of water systems in urban space in ancient and mediaeval times.
