This book was released on 2019-05-20 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ENGLISH Nearly ninety and still in surprisingly good condition. Like no other research tool the electron microscope by the brothers Ernst and Helmut Ruska and their brother-in-law Bodo von Borries marks the dawn of modernity. Their avant-garde idea of 1931 to examine under a microscope with electrons has expanded human vision until today. The world's first commercial overmicroscope for discoveries in the world of the smallest followed in Berlin 1939. 1948 the German development and application of overmicroscopy was revived in Düsseldorf. As a key instrument of research it has completed a triumphant march and it has won the attention of the Nobel Prize Committee for awards twice. 1986 the Nobel Prize for Physics was awarded for the invention of the Berlin electron microscope. 2017 the Nobel Prize for Chemistry was awarded for the sharp electron-optical imaging of fragile biomolecules through the modern application of low temperature. This book traces the way of electron microscopy along with its inventors from Berlin to Düsseldorf. DEUTSCH Beinahe neunzig und immer noch erstaunlich gut in Form. Wie kein anderes Forschungsmittel markiert das Elektronenmikroskop der Gebrüder Ernst und Helmut Ruska und deren Schwager Bodo von Borries den Aufbruch in die Moderne. Ihre avantgardistische Idee von 1931 mit Elektronen zu mikroskopieren hat bis heute das menschliche Sehvermögen erweitert. In Berlin folgte 1939 das erste kommerzielle Übermikroskop der Welt für eine Entdeckungsreise in die Welt des Kleinsten. 1948 wurde die deutsche Fortentwicklung und Anwendung der Übermikroskopie in Düsseldorf wieder belebt. Es hat als Schlüsselinstrument der Forschung einen Siegeszug ohnegleichen absolviert, und es hat die Aufmerksamkeit des Nobelpreis-Komitees zweimal gewonnen. 1986 wurde der Nobelpreis für Physik für die Erfindung des Berliner Elektronenmikroskops vergeben. 2017 wurde der Nobelpreis für Chemie für die scharfe elektronenoptische Abbildung von fragilen Biomolekülen durch die moderne Anwendung von Tieftemperatur vergeben. Dieses Buch zeichnet in Geleit seiner Erfinder den Weg der Elektronenmikroskopie von Berlin nach Düsseldorf nach.
Download or read book History written by Jörn Rüsen and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without denying the importance of the postmodernist approach to the narrative form and rhetorical strategies of historiography, the author, one of Germany's most prominent cultural historians, argues here in favor of reason and methodical rationality in history. He presents a broad variety of aspects, factors and developments of historical thinking from the 18th century to the present, thus continuing, in exemplary fashion, the tradition of critical self-reflection in the humanities and looking at historical studies as an important factor of cultural orientation in practical life. Jörn Rüsen was Professor of Modern History at Universities Bochum and Bielefeld for many years. From 1994 to 1997 he was Director of the Center for Interdisciplinary Research (ZiF) at Bielefeld. Since 1997 he has been President of the Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities Essen (Kulturwissenschaftliches Institut). He specialises in theory and methodology of historical sciences, the history of historiography, intercultural aspects of historical thinking, theory of historical learning, and the history of human rights.

Download or read book Theory of the History Classroom written by Manuel Köster and published by Wochenschau Verlag. This book was released on 2022-03-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume proposes a theory of history education in formal classroom settings. Specifically, it aims to outline how the particular setting of the classroom interacts with domain-specific processes of historical thinking. The theory rests on the notion that formal school education is a communicative and social system, while historical thinking occurs in the psychological system of a person's historical consciousness. In the complex interaction of these systems, historical thinking, emotions, communication, media and language are of particular importance. Drawing upon educational theory as well as the theory of history, this theory of the history classroom provides a framework as well as a solid foundation for future empirical research, both for developing research questions as well as for interpreting findings.
Download or read book Teaching a Dark Chapter written by Daniela R. P. Weiner and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2024-07-15 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching a Dark Chapter explores how textbook narratives about the Fascist/Nazi past in Italy, East Germany, and West Germany followed relatively calm, undisturbed paths of little change until isolated "flashpoints" catalyzed the educational infrastructure into periods of rapid transformation. Though these flashpoints varied among Italy and the Germanys, they all roughly conformed to a chronological scheme and permanently changed how each "dark past" was represented. Historians have often neglected textbooks as sources in their engagement with the reconstruction of postfascist states and the development of postwar memory culture. But as Teaching a Dark Chapter demonstrates, textbooks yield new insights and suggest a new chronology of the changes in postwar memory culture that other sources overlook. Employing a methodological and temporal rethinking of the narratives surrounding the development of European Holocaust memory, Daniela R. P. Weiner reveals how, long before 1968, textbooks in these three countries served as important tools to influence public memory about Nazi/Fascist atrocities. As Fascism had been spread through education, then education must play a key role in undoing the damage. Thus, to repair and shape postwar societies, textbooks became an avenue to inculcate youths with desirable democratic and socialist values. Teaching a Dark Chapter weds the historical study of public memory with the educational study of textbooks to ask how and why the textbooks were created, what they said, and how they affected the society around them.

Download or read book Historical Justice and History Education written by Matilda Keynes and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-21 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the expectations of historical justice movements and processes are understood within educational contexts, particularly history education. In recent years, movements for historical justice have gained global momentum and prominence as the focus on righting wrongs from the past has become a feature of contemporary politics. This imperative has manifested in globally diverse contexts including societies emerging from recent, violent conflict, but also established democracies which are increasingly compelled to address the legacies of colonialism, slavery, genocides, and war crimes, as well as other forms of protracted discord. This book examines historical justice from an educational perspective, exploring the myriad ways that education is understood as a site of historical injustice, as well as a mechanism for redress. The editors and contributors analyse the role of history education in processes of historical justice broadly, exploring educational sites, policies, media, and materials. This edited collection is a unique and important touchstone volume for scholars, policy-makers, practitioners, and teachers that can guide future research, policy, and practice in the fields of historical justice, human rights and history education.

Download or read book Historicizing the Uses of the Past written by Helle Bjerg and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents new developments in Scandinavian memory cultures related to World War II and the Holocaust by combining this focus with the perspective of history didactics. The theoretical framework of historical consciousness offers an approach linking individual and collective uses and re-uses of the past to the question how history can and should be taught. It also offers some examples of good practice in this field. The book promotes a teaching practice which, in taking the social constructivist notions of historical consciousness as a starting point, can contribute to self-reflecting and critical thinking - being fundamental for any democratic political culture.
