This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In der folgenden Arbeit stellt der Autor dar, dass jeder Mensch in einer Art Illusion lebt, indem er glaubt, die objektive Realität mit seinen Augen bzw. Sinnen wahrnehmen zu können. Viele Menschen scheinen sich dessen nicht bewusst zu sein und verwechseln die objektive Realität mit der subjektiven. Als Symbole dienen hierbei z. B. visuelle Merkmale (’Schönheitssymbole’), die von einer Gemeinschaft mit Wertungen belegt sind (‘schön’/‘hässlich’) oder auch Objekte, die bestimmte Gefühle auslösen, wie z.B. das Automobil, das gleichbedeutend mit Unabhängigkeit und Individualität ist. Das daraus resultierende ’Weltbild’ beeinflusst nachhaltig unser Urteilsvermögen, was wiederum bedeutet, dass beides voneinander abhängig ist. Genau diese Tatsache wird von den meisten Menschen außer acht gelassen. Der Autor untersucht die Konstruktion von Wirklichkeit durch Sprache anhand der Übersetzung eines Textes vom Englischen ins Deutsche. Im Anhang folgt ein Exkurs zur Hirnforschung, der nachträglich hinzugefügt wurde und die zuvor erläuterten Untersuchungsergebnisse stützt.
Download or read book Spaces and Identities in Border Regions written by Christian Wille and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spatial and identity research operates with differentiations and relations. These are particularly useful heuristic tools when examining border regions where social and geopolitical demarcations diverge. Applying this approach, the authors of this volume investigate spatial and identity constructions in cross-border contexts as they appear in everyday, institutional and media practices. The results are discussed with a keen eye for obliquely aligned spaces and identities and relinked to governmental issues of normalization and subjectivation. The studies base upon empirical surveys conducted in Germany, France, Belgium and Luxembourg.

Download or read book Barbarian Spring written by Jonas Lüscher and published by Haus Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-15 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a business trip to Tunisia, Preising, a leading Swiss industrialist, is invited to spend the week with the daughter of a local gangster. He accompanies her to the wedding of two London city traders at a desert luxury resort that was once the site of an old Berber oasis. With the wedding party in full swing and the bride riding up the aisle on a camel, no one is aware that the global financial system stands on the brink of collapse. As the wedding guests nurse their hangovers, they learn that the British pound has depreciated tenfold, and their world begins to crumble around them. So begins Barbarian Spring, the debut novel from Jonas Lüscher, a major emerging voice in European fiction. The timely and unusual novel centers on a culture clash between high finance and the value system of the Maghreb. Provocative and entertaining, Barbarian Spring is a refreshingly original and all-too-believable satire for our times.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2001 im Fachbereich Sprachwissenschaft / Sprachforschung (fachubergreifend), Note: 2, Fachhochschule Koln (Fachbereich Sprachen), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der folgenden Arbeit versuche ich darzustellen, da jeder Mensch in einer Art Illusion lebt, indem er glaubt, die objektive Realitat mit seinen Augen bzw. Sinnen wahrnehmen zu konnen. Interessant daran ist fur mich, da viele Menschen sich dessen anscheinend nicht bewut sind und die objektive Realitat mit der subjektiven verwechseln. Als Symbole dienen hierbei z. B. visuelle Merkmale ('Schonheitssymbole'), die von einer Gemeinschaft mit Wertungen belegt sind ('schon'/'halich') oder auch Objekte, die bestimmte Gefuhle auslosen, wie z. B. das Automobil, das gleichbedeutend mit Unabhangigkeit und Individualitat ist. Das daraus resultierende 'Weltbild' beeinflut nachhaltig unser Urteilsvermogen, was wiederum bedeutet, da beides voneinander abhangig ist. Genau diese Tatsache wird von den meisten Menschen auer acht gelassen. Aber die entscheidende Frage ist, wie diese 'Folie' zustandekommt bzw. welche Faktoren auer den oben genannten entscheidend fur ihren Aufbau sind. Vergleichbar ist diese Folie mit dem 'Platonischen Hohlengleichnis' (Abbild der objektiven Wirklichkeit) und bewirkt eine Art Nivellierung von Gedanken- und Gefuhlswelten. Die Komplexitat der Gedanken, Gefuhle und damit der Realitat wird sozusagen uberdeckt. Die bereits angesprochenen Symbole, aus denen sich das jeweilige 'Weltbild' zusammensetzt, konnte man auch als 'Bezugsgroen' oder Orientierungshilfen bezeichnen, die den Mikrokosmos bilden, in dem jeder von uns lebt. Angenommen, diese Groen waren von Geburt an unbewertet, so mute jeder Mensch diese Wertungen selbstandig vornehmen, um ein System aufzubauen, das er als 'die Welt' bezeichnen konnte. Dies ist jedoch in der Realitat nicht der Fall, da wir alle in bereits bestehende Systeme mit ihren vielfaltigen Erscheinungsformen hineinwachsen. Diese Formen finden

Download or read book Zelluloid written by Esther Schlicht and published by Kerber Verlag. This book was released on 2010 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ZELLULOID is dedicated to a particular genre of artistic film, in which the image is generated directly, by physically processing the film strip. Unlike other forms of experimental film, the film material is interpreted as if it were a canvas by using a diverse range of artistic processes: through painting, drawing, collage on the celluloid, scores and scratches in the photographic emulsion, chemical manipulation or the direct lighting of photo-sensitive media. This exhibition catalogue contains outstanding examples of 'films without a camera' and features some 20 international artists and filmmakers from the 1930s to the present day. Published on the occasion of the exhibition Zelluloid: Film ohne Kamera, June ndash; August 2010, Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt. English and German text.
Download or read book Island Rivers written by John R. Wagner and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2018-06-19 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthropologists have written a great deal about the coastal adaptations and seafaring traditions of Pacific Islanders, but have had much less to say about the significance of rivers for Pacific island culture, livelihood and identity. The authors of this collection seek to fill that gap in the ethnographic record by drawing attention to the deep historical attachments of island communities to rivers, and the ways in which those attachments are changing in response to various forms of economic development and social change. In addition to making a unique contribution to Pacific island ethnography, the authors of this volume speak to a global set of issues of immense importance to a world in which water scarcity, conflict, pollution and the degradation of riparian environments afflict growing numbers of people. Several authors take a political ecology approach to their topic, but the emphasis here is less on hydro-politics than on the cultural meaning of rivers to the communities we describe. How has the cultural significance of rivers shifted as a result of colonisation, development and nation-building? How do people whose identities are fundamentally rooted in their relationship to a particular river renegotiate that relationship when the river is dammed to generate hydro-power or polluted by mining activities? How do blockages in the flow of rivers and underground springs interrupt the intergenerational transmission of local ecological knowledge and hence the ability of local communities to construct collective identities rooted in a sense of place?
Download or read book Interthinking Putting Talk to Work written by Karen Littleton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in an accessible and jargon-free style, Interthinking: putting talk to work explores the growing body of work on how people think creatively and productively together. Challenging purely individualistic accounts of human evolution and cognition, its internationally acclaimed authors provide analyses of real-life examples of collective thinking in everyday settings including workplaces, schools, rehearsal spaces and online environments. The authors use socio-cultural psychology to explain the processes involved in interthinking, to explore its creative power, but also to understand why collective thinking isn’t always productive or successful. With this knowledge we can maximise the constructive benefits of our ability to interthink, and understand the best ways in which we can help young people to develop, nurture and value that capability.
Download or read book Hito Steyerl I Will Survive written by Hito Steyerl and published by Spector Books. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A massive, long-overdue retrospective on the multimedia image critique of Hito Steyerl, influential artist and author of Duty-Free Artand The Wretched of the Screen Over the past 30 years, through video and installation, the immensely influential German artist and writer Hito Steyerl (born 1966) has been tracking the ways that images have mutated--from the analogue image and its manifold possibilities for montage to the fluidity of the split digital image--and the implications these mutations have had for the representation of wars, genocides and the flow of capital. "We are no longer dealing with the virtual but with a confusing and possibly alien concreteness that we are only beginning to understand," writes Brian Kuan Wood of the digital visual worlds that the artist presents. At nearly 500 pages, this book--the first substantial overview on Steyerl--looks at multimedia installations and film projects of the past ten years, as well as earlier works, all of which are united by the artist's unflagging interrogation of the politics of the image.
Download or read book Zoology in Early Modern Culture Intersections of Science Theology Philology and Political and Religious Education written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-10-09 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume tries to map out the intriguing amalgam of the different, partly conflicting approaches that shaped early modern zoology. Early modern reading of the “Book of Nature” comprised, among others, the description of species in the literary tradition of antiquity, as well as empirical observations, vivisection, and modern eyewitness accounts; the “translation” of zoological species into visual art for devotion, prayer, and religious education, but also scientific and scholarly curiosity; theoretical, philosophical, and theological thinking regarding God’s creation, the Flood, and the generation of animals; new attempts with respect to nomenclature and taxonomy; the discovery of unknown species in the New World; impressive Wunderkammer collections, and the keeping of exotic animals in princely menageries. The volume demonstrates that theology and philology played a pivotal role in the complex formation of this new science. Contributors include: Brian Ogilvie, Bernd Roling, Erik Jorink, Paul Smith, Sabine Kalff, Tamás Demeter, Amanda Herrin, Marrigje Rikken, Alexander Loose, Sophia Hendrikx, and Karl Enenkel.

Download or read book The Star of Redemption written by Franz Rosenzweig and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 1985-08-31 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Star of Redemption is widely recognized as a key document of modern existential thought and a significant contribution to Jewish theology in the twentieth century. An affirmation of what Rosenzweig called “the new thinking,” the work ensconces common sense in the place of abstract, conceptual philosophizing and posits the validity of the concrete, individual human being over that of “humanity” in general. Fusing philosophy and theology, it assigns both Judaism and Christianity distinct but equally important roles in the spiritual structure of the world, and finds in both biblical religions approaches toward a comprehension of reality.
