This book was released on 1994 with total page 982 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heinrich Beck ist als o. Professor Inhaber des Lehrstuhls für Philosophie I der Universität Bamberg und hat Professuren an sechs weiteren Universitäten in Europa sowie (Latein-)Amerika inne. Seine zahlreichen akademischen Tätigkeiten, die er weltweit entfaltet, unterstreichen die interkulturelle Ausrichtung seines Philosophierens. Dessen zentrales Anliegen, das sich u.a. in einem gleichnamigen Forschungsprojekt niedergeschlagen hat, lautet: «Kreativer Friede durch Begegnung der Weltkulturen». Diese Perspektive entfaltet sich von einem Grundverständnis der Wirklichkeit als triadische Bewegung her. Die von Schülern, Mitarbeitern und Freunden des Jubilars zu dieser Festschrift geleisteten Beiträge spiegeln die Spannweite und die Fruchtbarkeit seines wissenschaftlichen Ansatzes wider, der sich in verschiedenen Erfahrungsbereichen der Natur und Kultur konkretisiert: Drei Themenbereiche - 'Interkultureller Horizont', 'Analogie und Ontotriadik' sowie 'Ethische und ideengeschichtliche Perspektiven' - vereinen Stimmen aus verschiedenen Kulturen und Denktraditionen zu einem Gespräch, als dessen Ziel die wechselseitige Ergänzung bei der Suche nach dem Sinn von Sein aufscheint.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For much of its history, children's literature has been overlooked or looked down on by scholars. But in recent years children's literature has assumed greater importance, as literary critics, psychologists, anthropologists, and historians have begun to discover what children and parents have known for centuries: that this is a literature of extraordinary richness, depth, and delight. The Encyclopedia captures and elucidates this richness in four volumes and 3,200 signed entries. It offers comprehensive coverage of children's literature, from medieval chapbooks of moral instruction for children to J. K. Rowling's immensely popular Harry Potter books. Unlike other references, the Encyclopedia not only documents but also interprets every work, major and minor, that has played a role in the history of children's literature in the world. General essays illuminate prominent trends, themes, genres, and the traditions of children's literature in many countries. In addition, the Encyclopedia provides biographies of important writers, as well as extensive coverage of illustrators with numerous examples of their work. Sociocultural developments such as the impact of toys, films, animation, the Internet, literacy, libraries and librarians, censorship, the multicultural expansion of the field, and other issues related to the appreciation and dissemination of children's literature are also addressed. While the Encyclopedia concentrates on the tradition known best by its readership, it also covers the international development of children's literature and offers an unprecedented treatment of works from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, India, Pakistan, African countries, and other nations. Its over 800 distinguished contributors come from around the world and include such renowned scholars and writers as Gillian Avery, Peter Hunt, Klaus Doderer, Hansa Heino Ewers, Jean Perrot, Denise Escarpit, Brian Alderson, and Betsy Gould Hearne. A-Z organization, accessible writing, plentiful illustrations, cross-references, bibliographies, a comprehensive index and a systematic outline make the Encyclopedia an invaluable and easy-to-use research reference.

Download or read book The History of Linguistics in the Low Countries written by Jan Noordegraaf and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of the Low Countries as a centre for the study of foreign languages is well-known. The mutual relationship between the Dutch grammatical tradition and the Western European context has, however, been largely neglected. In this collection of papers on the history of linguistics in the Low Countries the editors have made an effort to present the Dutch tradition in connection with that of the neighbouring countries. Three articles by Claes, Dibbets and Klifman deal with the earliest stages of the development of a grammar for the Dutch vernacular. Several important European figures worked in the Low Countries; their contribution to linguistics is discussed in articles on Vossius (Rademaker), Spinoza (Klijnsmit), and one of the most original phoneticians of European linguistics, Montanus (Hulsker). Vivian Salmon's article is a survey on the relations between English and Dutch linguistics in the field of foreign language teaching. In the 19th century Dutch linguistics had a special relationship with German general and historical linguistics; four articles deal with this period (Jongeneelen, van Driel, le Loux-Schuringa, Noordegraaf). Finally, there are three articles by Kaldewij, Hagen and van Els/Knops on the development of three branches of linguistics in the 20th century: structuralism, dialectology and applied linguistics. This volume should be of interest for all specialists in the history of linguistics in Europe, who are interested in the interdependence of the various traditions.
