Download or read book Mallorca die Goldene Insel written by Hartmut Ihnenfeldt and published by Reisebuch.de. This book was released on 2014-02-20 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eine Auswahl an unterhaltsamen und niveauvollen Geschichten von und über Mallorca aus der Zeit vor Beginn des Massentourismus von renommierten Autoren wie Jules Verne, Robert Graves, Tom Crichton, Karl Otten und anderen. Es sind Geschichten mit unterschiedlichem literarischen Anspruch, von denen jede einzelne ein Stück Mallorca widerspiegelt, teils voller Spannung, teils von leiser Ironie durchdrungen. Ihre Helden des Alltags sind dekadente Adlige, sich aufopfernde Reiseleiter, einfache Dorfbewohner, fleißige Fischer, neugierige Touristen sowie drei unglückliche Stierkämpfer, um nur einige zu nennen. In ihrer Gesamtheit bieten die Texte eine abwechslungsreiche Lektüre für jeden, der sich die Lieblingsinsel der Deutschen einmal literarisch erschließen möchte. Einige dieser Geschichten erscheinen (z.T. als Übersetzungen) in deutscher Erstausgabe. Überarbeitete Version des vergriffenen Print-Titels aus dem RKH-Verlag.
Download or read book Eine Finca auf Mallorca written by Elke Menzel and published by Reisebuch.de. This book was released on with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Für alle, in deren Köpfen der Gedanke herumspukt, vielleicht einmal nach Mallorca zu übersiedeln, dort unter warmer Mittelmeersonne zumindest einen Teil des Jahres zu verbringen, oder das alles bereits realisieren konnten, hat die Autorin dieses Buch geschrieben. In 40 Erzählskizzen plaudert sie aus dem Alltag einer Finca-Eignerin auf Mallorca - von den Licht- und von den Schattenseiten. Die Leichtigkeit des Seins in diesem vermeintlichen Paradies, die sich tatsächlich gelegentlich einstellt, wird zwar immer wieder durch Tücken, Widrigkeiten und ungeahnte Missverständnisse zeitweise aufgehoben, aber nie prinzipiell in Frage gestellt. Mit ihrer ironischen Grundhaltung, die sich hinter einem scheinbar arglosen Erzählton verbirgt, gelingt es Elke Menzel, den vielfältigen Absurditäten in einer fremd-vertrauten Welt standzuhalten und ihre Leser auf gekonnte Weise zu unterhalten oder auch - in einigen der Essays - zur Besinnung anzuregen. Der Text enthält viele Illustrationen der Autorin und wurde für die E-Book-Version behutsam überarbeitet sowie um einige Kapitel erweitert.

Download or read book Deformation Models written by Manuel González Hidalgo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-29 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The computational modelling of deformations has been actively studied for the last thirty years. This is mainly due to its large range of applications that include computer animation, medical imaging, shape estimation, face deformation as well as other parts of the human body, and object tracking. In addition, these advances have been supported by the evolution of computer processing capabilities, enabling realism in a more sophisticated way. This book encompasses relevant works of expert researchers in the field of deformation models and their applications. The book is divided into two main parts. The first part presents recent object deformation techniques from the point of view of computer graphics and computer animation. The second part of this book presents six works that study deformations from a computer vision point of view with a common characteristic: deformations are applied in real world applications. The primary audience for this work are researchers from different multidisciplinary fields, such as those related with Computer Graphics, Computer Vision, Computer Imaging, Biomedicine, Bioengineering, Mathematics, Physics, Medical Imaging and Medicine.
Download or read book Historiography and Mythography in the Aristotelian Mirabilia written by Stefan Schorn and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first full-length volume in English that focuses on the historiographical section of the Mirabilia or De mirabilibus auscultationibus (On Marvelous Things Heard), attributed to Aristotle but not in fact by him. The central section of the Mirabilia, namely §§ 78–151, for the most part deals with historiographical material, with many of its entries having some relationship to ancient Greek historians of the 4th and 3rd centuries BC. The chapters in this volume discuss various aspects of this portion of the text, including textual issues involving toponyms; possible structural principles behind the organization of this section; the passages on Theopompus and Timaeus; mythography; the philosopher Heracleides of Pontos; Homeric exegesis; and the interrelationship between pseudo-Plutarch’s On Rivers, a section of the historian Stobaeus’ Geography, and the Mirabilia. Historiography and Mythography in the Aristotelian Mirabilia is an invaluable resource for scholars and students of this text, and of Greek philosophy, historiography, and literature more broadly.

Download or read book The Spanish Coastal Systems written by Juan A. Morales and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 809 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents the state of art of the geologic knowledge about the Spanish coast obtained through scientific research in the last 30 years.From a general point of view, coasts are the most quickly changing systems of the Earth. This is critical, since many human resources, such as the main part of economic and social activities, are located in the coastal areas. Especially in the case of Spain these coasts include cities, wide industrial areas (including harbor complexes), important ecologic systems, and our main economic resource: tourism. Understanding the dynamic functioning of each element of this coast is vital for correct future coastal management, so as to solve problems derived from bad plans developed in the last decades of the twentieth century. This is a valuable text for advanced graduate students and coastal researchers, which connects the specific dynamic functioning of the main Spanish coastal environments and their relationships with human activities.
