Spuren
Spuren
Naturereignisse jeglicher Art und jeglichen Ausmasses (Kometen, Hurrikane, Erdbeben, Felsstürze, Regengüsse, Dürre usw.) hinterlassen Spuren. Dasselbe gilt für Lebewesen. Und wo der Mensch aktiv wird, aufbauend oder zerstörend, vervielfachen sich die Spuren: in der grossen äusseren Welt, im Atelier, im Büro und im Labor, in der Erinnerung und im Seelenleben der Nächsten, aber auch im Reagenzglas und im mikroskopischen Bereich der Teilchenphysik. Unsere Welten, die materielle wie die geistige und die psychische, sind voll von Spuren, Fährten, Pisten. Und es ist zumindest beunruhigend, ja geradezu widernatürlich, wenn ein Ereignis keine Spuren hinterlässt oder wenn Dinge und Menschen spurlos verschwinden. Spuren haben die Natur von Zeichen. Ob sichtbar oder im Unterbewussten vergraben, ob bloss erahnt oder klar erfasst, bilden sie ein Gegenwärtiges, das von etwas Vergangenem zeugt und zugleich auf etwas Zukünftiges verweisen kann. Deshalb auch ist der Mensch wesensmässig ein Spurenleser. Was er auch anstrebt, sucht, unternimmt, wissen will, er kommt nicht darum herum, Spuren zu deuten, sie zu verfolgen. Und sollte er sie verloren haben, wird er alles daran setzen, sie wieder aufzunehmen.
Die Krise - und ihre Bewältigung Hafner, W: Krise - und ihre Bewältigung
Die Krise - und ihre Bewältigung Hafner, W: Krise - und ihre Bewältigung
Der Kanton Solothurn hat in den letzten drei Jahrzehnten nicht viele positive Schlagzeilen in der Wirtschaftspresse erhalten: Krise der Uhrenindustrie, Niedergang der Stahlindustrie, Schliessung der Bally-Schuhfabriken und das Debakel der Kantonalbank sind Stichworte dazu. Die grossen Flaggschiffe der Solothurner Industrie sind teilweise verschwunden, einige konnten sich, wie die Uhrenindustrie zum Beispiel, neu ausrichten. Der Kanton hat in den letzten Jahren aus dem wirtschaftlichen Wellental herausgefunden. Erfolgreiche mittelgrosse Unternehmen und die Hinwendung zur Hihgtech haben Wege aus der Krise aufgezeigt. Der Wirtschaftshistoriker Wolfang Hafner hat die Leute befragt, die damals in Wirtschaft und Verwaltung mitentschieden haben. Ergänzt mit viel Hintergrundwissen zeichnet er damit eine Wirtschaftsgeschichte des Kantons Solothurn der jüngsten Zeit.

Journal für Psychoanalyse 49
Journal für Psychoanalyse 49
Die Königsdisziplin der Psychoanalyse wäre die hochfrequente Analyse auf der Couch. Diese trägt zwar zur analytischen Identität bei, wird aber immer weniger benutzt und ziert häufig nur noch die Praxisräume. Das aktuelle Journal zeigt auf, dass die Psychoanalyse aber deswegen nicht an Wert verliert, sondern dass im Gegenteil der Spielraum grösser wird, wenn der analytische Prozess im Zentrum steht und nicht die Stundenfrequenz im Sitzen oder Liegen. Beiträge zum Schwerpunktthema Für die breiten Volksschichten können wir derzeit nichts tun oder der Psychoanalytiker zwischen potenziellem Bedarf und realer Nachfrage.

Die Geschichtswissenschaft hat sich lange vor allem mit wirtschaftlichem Erfolg beschäftigt, obschon es Mangel und Knappheit waren, die den Alltag der Menschen in der Vormoderne prägten. Dorothee Guggenheimers Untersuchung setzt hier einen Kontrapunkt. Sie macht den Misserfolg zum Thema, und zwar am Beispiel von St. Gallen, einer Stadt, die in der Frühen Neuzeit für ihre wirtschaftliche Prosperität bekannt war. Gestützt auf eine breite Quellenbasis, nähert sich die Autorin ökonomischem Scheitern aus verschiedenen Perspektiven, angefangen bei der Entwicklung des Rechts über die konjunkturgeschichtliche Bedeutung von Konkursen und die Ausgestaltung von Schuldner-Gläubiger-Beziehungen bis hin zur sozialen Stellung der Konkursiten nach ihrem Kollaps.

Der Weltspiegel
Der Weltspiegel
Die Moralität Der welt spiegel (zitiert als Der Weltspiegel) wurde 1550 von Basler Bürgern öffentlich aufgeführt. Ihr Autor, Valentin Boltz, führte dabei Regie. Die Stadtbehörden hatten ihrem Spitalpfarrer den ausdrücklichen Auftrag erteilt, zur Besserung der Bürger und Stärkung des eidgenössischen Bundes ein neues Stück zu schreiben. Die erfolgreiche Aufführung seines Paulusspiels vom Jahre 1546 war noch in bester Erinnerung. Das Spiel wurde in zwei Auflagen 1550 und 1551 von Jacob Kündig in Basel gedruckt und mit zahlreichen Holzschnitten und Zierleisten ausgestattet, die in die Edition aufgenommen worden sind. Alle Exemplare der 1. Auflage sind heute verloren, von der 2. Auflage sind nur noch zwei erhalten – ein leicht beschädigtes in der Universitätsbibliothek Basel und ein zweites aus Preußischem Kulturbesitz Berlin in Krakau. Auch der Weltspiegel ist wie die beiden Bibeldramen von Valentin Boltz fest in der biblischen Welt verankert, stützt sich aber zugleich auch auf die Moralsatiren der Zeit. Diesmal folgt der Dichter nicht einer bekannten biblischen Fabel, sondern lässt menschliche Schwächen und Unarten aller Art in allegorischen und realistischen Figuren reihenspielartig am Publikum vorbeiziehen. Dabei bietet er auch ein Abbild des alltäglichen Geschehens in der Humanistenstadt Basel. Der Weltspiegel ist zudem Warnung vor der politischen Gefährdung der Alten Eidgenossenschaft. Niklaus von Flüe tritt in Analogie zu Moses wiederholt als Mahner seines Volkes auf. Eine Besonderheit dieses Spiels sind die erhaltenen Noten zu den Gesängen. Die turbulente Moralität ist eine ergiebige sprachliche, volkskundliche, musikhistorische und theatergeschichtliche Quelle, die durch die Worterklärungen und den Sachkommentar der Edition erschlossen wird.

Wissenskunst
Wissenskunst
Zum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts umspannten ausgebaute Verkehrs- und Kommunikationsnetze die Erde. Wissenschaft hatte sich in Disziplinen aufgefächert. Kunst war autonom. Am Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts war das alles anders. Expeditionen brachen auf, um Wissen über unbekannte Landstriche zu sammeln. Was nicht zu transportieren war, wurde medial dokumentiert. Künstler gingen dabei den Wissenschaftlern zur Hand. Das vorliegende Buch liest das Werk Adalbert Stifters vor dem Hintergrund der Expeditionsreisen und der zeitspezifischen Problematik der Wissensvermittlung. Es zeigt anhand der Pflanzengeographie, wie durchlässig die Membran zwischen Kunst und Wissen bis weit ins 19. Jahrhundert war und welche praktischen und philosophisch-theoretischen Gesetzmäßigkeiten den Austausch regulierten. Es zeigt, welcher Stellenwert Medien bei dieser Osmose zukam. Und es bestimmt die Wechselwirkung von wissenschaftlichen und poetischen Momenten in Stifters Schaffen näher: Stifters Texte, zugleich spröde und phantasmagorisch, sind lebendige Photographien, Wissenskunst.

Dancing Korea: New Waves of Choreographers and Dance Companies
Dancing Korea: New Waves of Choreographers and Dance Companies
Contemporary Korean Arts Series 5 Contemporary Korean Dancers and Dance Companies An Overview of Past and Present Koreans have always enjoyed and appreciated dance. In the past, Korean dance was intimately rooted in people’s everyday lives, and the ideas that governed everyday life in turn greatly impacted the form and content of dance. However, with the turn of the modern era, Korea began to adopt Western culture, and dance was no exception. Korean dance moved from its traditional stage of outdoor gardens and courtyards to indoor heaters and changed to Western-style staged dances, which significantly distorted its nature and mode of existence. Dancing Korea: New Waves of Choreographers and Dance Companies provides an overview of such history and current status of contemporary Korean dance along with major contemporary dancers and dance companies. In addition to introducing dancers who are still actively performing, the book explains the cultural milieu of dance in Korea, the philosophy of traditional Korean dance, and the history and modernization of dance in order to illuminate how Korean dance has come to be what it is today. Based on personal interviews and experience in the dance scene, the author concentrates on the catalysts that led to explorations and places each of the artists in context. At the end of this book, directories to the artists’ contacts and dance festivals are included for readers to check performance schedule and further information.

Involuntary Childlessness
Involuntary Childlessness
A high proportion of couples in western industrialized countries are unable to have children, and in many cases these couples need psychosocial support. This book describes a range of counseling and therapy approaches that can be used in a variety of circumstances. The approaches described here provide concrete assistance and advice on psychosocial interventions for all professionals who are active in reproductive medicine, fertility treatment, and counseling or therapy for couples. The book introduces the most recent knowledge about psychosomatic treatment of fertility disorders, and describes assessment methods that can be used in everyday practice by those providing both medical treatment and counseling for fertility disorders. On the basis of numerous case examples, various different approaches to counseling and therapy are described, including, for example, specific approaches that can be taken by primary care or family physicians, or how to approach the problems in couples with different cultural backgrounds. A manual for gynecologists in the final chapter provides concrete advice and guidelines for a holistic, psychosomatic course of treatment for childless couples.

Asymptote
Asymptote
Asymptote, an award-winning New York City -- based architectural firm, expands the boundaries of traditional architectural practice with work that ranges from buildings and urban design to computer-generated environments. Recognized internationally as both leading-edge architects and virtual-reality artists as well as sought-after critics and teachers, Asymptote partners Lise Anne Couture and Hani Rashid have emphasized research into cultural trends and technological influences as the core of their practice. The firm has completed or is overseeing projects around the world, with commissions as diverse as a trading floor for the New York Stock Exchange; a multimedia research park in Kyoto, Japan; a modular furniture system for the Knoll furniture company; a music theater in Graz, Austria; and a new center for art and technology for the Guggenheim Museum in SoHo, New York. Designed and written by the partners, Asymptote is the first book to fully document their "real world" (as opposed to virtual) projects.In mathematical terms, the word "asymptote" is defined as a line that a given curve gets closer and closer to, but never touches, as it gets further from the origin towards infinity. In architectural terms, Asymptote is the Manhattan-based architectural design and research practice established by Lise Anne Couture and Hani Rashid in 1989.Rashid and Couture's work is intriguing because it draws inspiration from a wide range of sources not traditionally associated with architecture -- among them the design of airline interiors, sporting equipment, and organic systems like seashells and honeycombs; and various means of communicating and disseminating information. Their projects areconcerned as much with light, speed, and traversing virtual boundaries as with "real-world" geometries and building systems. Hani Rashid is one of the founding instructors in the "paperless studio" curriculum at Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture, a progra
Investigative Psychology
Investigative Psychology
This ground-breaking text is the first to provide a detailed overview of Investigative Psychology, from the earliest work through to recent studies, including descriptions of previously unpublished internal reports. Crucially it provides a framework for students to explore this exciting terrain, combining Narrative Theory and an Action Systems framework. It includes empirically tested models for Offender Profiling and guidance for investigations, as well as an agenda for research in Investigative Psychology. Investigative Psychology features: * The full range of crimes from fraud to terrorism, including burglary, serial killing, arson, rape, and organised crime * Important methodologies including multi-dimensional scaling and the Radex approach as well as Social Network Analysis * Geographical Offender Profiling, supported by detailed analysis of the underlying psychological processes that make this such a valuable investigative decision support tool * The full range of investigative activities, including effective information collection, detecting deception and the development of decision support systems. In effect, this text introduces an exciting new paradigm for a wide range of psychological contributions to all forms of investigation within and outside of law enforcement.

Suicide and Euthanasia in Older Adults
Suicide and Euthanasia in Older Adults
Suicide among older people is a significant problem, but one that has tended to be neglected in recent years. And in an age where populations and cultures are becoming increasingly mixed due to migration and globalization, it is vital that lessons concerning suicide and euthanasia be learned from different countries. This book provides help by bringing together a unique range of perspectives on aging, suicide, and euthanasia from different cultures and countries around the world. In addition to analytical overviews of the relationship between socio-economic or psychological factors and suicidal behavior, differences between younger and older suicides, family factors, and physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia, contributions by leading authorities from 10 different regions each contain a description of suicide in old age, as well as discussions of views concerning the role of the elderly in that culture and the issue of euthanasia/assisted suicide, especially in the terminally ill. This book is of interest not just for suicidologists but also for psychiatrists, psychologists, sociologists, ethicists, thanatologists, geriatricians, psychogeriatricians and psychogerontologists. A remarkable book, dealing with vital but often neglected topics: . Suicide in the elderly . Euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide . Cultural aspects

Improving Memory and Study Skills Herrmann, D: Improving Memory
This text is designed to serve as a primary text for teaching the science of studying to university and other students. Divided into five main sections, 13 chapters deal with: (1) Fundamentals, including scientific findings concerning learning and studying, and the physiological and psychological basis of memory; (2) Physical and emotional state when studying/taking exams; (3) How best to store and remember information; (4) Using the environment and things around us to help; (5) Integrating the above. Improving Memory and Study Skills is based on the latest research, including that of the authors, on how students study, learn, and remember. The authors collectively have over 100 years of experience in teaching and research about how students can learn more efficiently. This text presents both the rationale and the methods that have led to a new and successful multimodal approach to developing memory and study skills. Not only is the book full of practical recommendations for both teaching and learning these skills. In addition, the scientific reasons for the suggested procedures are clearly laid out, and the explanations in turn are grounded in practical examples. Each of the 13 chapters is rounded off by a concise summary of the most salient points, and the book itself is completed by a comprehensive glossary, and full author and subject indexes.

Fruits
Fruits
Fruits is a collection of Tokyo street fashion portraits from Japan's premier street fanzine of the same name. 'Fruits' was established in 1994, by photographer Shoichi Aoki, initially as a project to document the growing explosion in street fashion within the suburbs of Tokyo. Over the last five years, the magazine has grown to cult status and is now avidly followed by thousands of Japanese teenagers who also use the magazine as an opportunity to check out the latest styles and trends. The average age of the kids featured in the magazine is between 12 and 18, and the clothes that they wear are a mixture of high fashion -- Vivienne Westwood is a keen favourite -- and home-made ensembles which when combined create a novel, if not hysterical, effect.This extensive collection of portraits represents a unique documentation of the changing face of street fashion throughout the last decade. Colourful, fascinating and funny, this is the first time these cult images have been published outside Japan. Fruits will delight followers of fashion and youth culture.
