In the light of growing political and religious fundamentalism, this open access book defends the idea of freedom as paramount for the attempt to find common ethical ground in the age of globality. The book sets out to examine as yet unexhausted ways to boost the resilience of the principle of liberalism. Critically reviewing the last 200 years of the philosophy of freedom, it revises the principle of liberty in order to revive it. It discusses many different aspects that fall under its three main topics: the metaphysics of freedom, quantitative freedom and qualitative freedom. Open societies worldwide have come under increasing pressure in the last decades. The belief that politics and markets fare best when guided by the principle of liberty presently faces multiple challenges such as terrorism, climate warming, inequality, populism, and financial crises. In the view of its critics, the idea of freedom no longer offers adequate guidance to meet these challenges and should be partially corrected or even entirely replaced by countervailing values. Against the reduction of freedom to the merely quantitative question as to how much liberties individuals call their own, this book draws attention to the qualitative concerns which and whose opportunities society should foster. It argues that, correctly understood, the idea of liberty commits us to defend as well as advance the freedom of each and every world citizen.

Dr. Franz von Ottenthal served as a General Practitioner in Sand, in the South Tyrolean Tauferer Ahrntal from 1847 to 1899, over a period lasting more than 50 years. From 1861 until 1882, in a period of great regional and imperial tensions, he even was member of the Tyrolean Landtag (diet).In 1837/8 he began his medical studies at the University of Vienna, where important physicians from the "Zweite Wiener Medizinische Schule" like Carl von Rokitansky, Joseph Skoda and Philipp Semmelweis were teaching.Ottenthal worked as a medical expert in Windisch-Matrei (East Tyrol) for almost two years. Then he went back home and became a General Practitioner in Neumelans, the residence of his family.This biography treats particularly the career as a physician, his engagement in the medical service and the difficulties during the collaboration with medical authorities. On the other side it contains further an analysis of the medical records and the letters of his patients for a better patient view. Further this biography discusses open questions like medical development, fees, properties of a noble rural physicians in the second part of the 19 century and the competition with other physicians and healers. A big space is dedicated to the treatment of mental illness. Ottenthal wasn't a 'psychiatrist', but he was as well responsible for the care and the treatment of persons with mental disease. With a report by a physician began - crossing a lot of other institutions - the way in the asylum.The Ottenthal family, whose everyday life has tried to be reconstructed along private correspondence, is a typical example of a family from the second part of the 19th century between nobility and bourgeoisie characterized on the one hand by qualification, know-how and a lucrative job and on the other by a nobility title, fortune and landed property.Franz von Ottenthal wasn't a famous physician like Rudolf Virchow, Robert Koch or Carl von Rokitansky. Nevertheless he was a modern, political engaged, self-confident practitioner and he is a very good example for the fusion of nobility and bourgeoisie in a rural life of the 19th century.This publication should be a contribution to the exploration of rural medical practice, which is little known and often poor of sources. It will even be a starting-point for further comparative studies of other medical biographies and legacies.Franz von Ottenthal war ein Landarzt in Sand in Taufers, im Tiroler (heutigen Südtiroler) Tauferer-Ahrntal, und von 1861 bis 1883, also in einer Zeit großer landes- und reichspolitischer Spannungen, als Abgeordneter im Tiroler Landtag tätig. Ab dem Studienjahr 1837/38 studierte er Medizin an der Universität Wien. Unter seinen Lehrern und Studienkollegen finden sich einige große Namen der "Zweiten Wiener Medizinischen Schule", wie Carl von Rokitansky, Joseph Skoda oder Philipp Semmelweis.Nach einer ersten fast zweijährigen Berufserfahrung als Gerichts- und Gemeindearzt in Windisch-Matrei (heute Matrei in Osttirol) kehrte Franz von Ottenthal in seinen Heimatort Sand in Taufers zurück, wo er in dem von seiner Familie geerbten Ansitz Neumelans eine Ordination eröffnete. Hier wirkte er knapp mehr als 50 Jahre lang von 1847 bis 1899 ununterbrochen als Privatarzt.Die vorliegende Biografie befasst sich vorrangig mit dem Werdegang des Arztes, mit seinem sanitätspolitischen Engagement sowie mit den Schwierigkeiten in der Zusammenarbeit mit den vorgesetzten Sanitätsbehörden. Auf der anderen Seite wurde aber versucht, durch die Analyse der Krankengeschichten und besonders der PatientInnenbriefe auch die noch unterbelichtete Sicht der PatientInnen und das Arzt-Patienten-Verhältnis zu erfassen. Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich weiters mit den bisher teilweise noch offenen Fragen der ärztlichen Ausbildung, des Arzthonorars und des Vermögens eines adeligen Landarztes der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts sowie der Konkurrenz durch andere Ärzte und Laienheiler. Einen großen Raum nimmt das Thema der Behandlung von Geisteskrankheiten ein. Ottenthal war, obwohl "psychiatrisch" nicht ausgebildet, zuständig für die Versorgung und Behandlung von psychisch Kranken. Mit seinem Gutachten begann meistens, über mehrere Institutionen, der Weg in die Anstalt. Mit Hilfe der spärlichen Privatkorrespondenz wurde zudem versucht, Einblick in den Alltag der Landarztfamilie von Ottenthal zu nehmen. Dieses typische Beispiel einer adeligen Familie bürgerlichen Stils setzte sich aus Personen zusammen, die im "Schwebezustand" zwischen Adel und Bürgertum waren, die einerseits durch Leistung, Qualifikation, Bildung und einem "Brotberuf" und andererseits durch Adelstitel, Vermögen und Grundbesitz charakterisiert waren.Franz von Ottenthal war keine berühmte Arztpersönlichkeit wie Rudolf Virchow, Robert Koch oder Carl von Rokitansky. Dennoch stellt er - und das zu zeigen ist Ziel dieser Biografie - einen modernen, politisch engagierten, selbstbewussten Arzt dar und ist ein prägendes Beispiel für die Vermischung von Adel und Bürgertum in einem ländlichen Leben des 19. Jahrhunderts.Die vorliegende Publikation soll einen Beitrag zur Erforschung der noch wenig beachteten und teilweise quellenarmen Medizin am Lande besonders der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts leisten. Sie versteht sich als Ausgangspunkt für neue Vergleichsstudien mit ähnlich gut erforschten Arztbiografien bzw. ärztlichen Nachlässen.
Cap'n Warren's Wards is the first book by Joseph C. Lincoln that moves off the fictional towns of Cape Cod (in this case South Denboro) and into the big city hustle of Manhattan. Elijah Warren finds himself the guardian of his brother's children who are rapidly reaching adulthood but haven't had to face the harsh realities of self responsibility due to their father's wealth. Unfortunately now there are a few snags with A. Rodgers Warren's estate and Cap'n Warren decides its best to toughen his wards up and maybe teach them some humility in the process. Returning to his native Cape Cod village after many years of living at sea, Cy Whittaker finds the old homestead no longer the place of his boyhood. So-called "improvements" have been going on in his absence, and he finds it all sadly changed. The old man adopts the little daughter of a worthless drunkard, with the intent of giving the child an education. A Congressman from the district, years before, had appropriated property belonging to the child, and he, together with the father, fights to regain possession of the child. The sympathy of the village goes out to the father, but Cy Whittaker and Phoebe Dawes, the school teacher, manage to outwit the Congressman and the drunken father, and in the end the old bachelor and the school mistress fall in love with each other.
This book, intended as a supplementary reader for pupils in the seventh and eighth grades of school, has been prepared with a view to meeting a real need of the times. While there are a large number of text-books, and several readers, dealing with citizenship from the political point of view, the higher aspects of citizenship--the moral and ethical--have been seriously overlooked. The authors of this work have searched in vain for something which would serve as an aid to the joint development of the natural faculties and the moral instincts, so as to produce a well-rounded manhood, upon which a higher type of citizenship might be built. The development of character appears, to us, to be of far greater importance, in the preparation of the youth for the discharge of the duties of public life, than is mere political instruction; for only by introducing loftier ethical standards can the grade and quality of our citizenship be raised.

Last Year at Betty and Bob’s: A Novelty is the first in a series of novellas emerging from a writing practice that taps the cusp of consciousness between dreaming and waking. A storyline, or genealogy, tinted a shade of RGB blue, is fashioned by thinking through the felt unthought of this between space. A fabulation, an anarchive of what passes through. Lucid dreaming of this type is rife with allusions to conceptual and material goings-on, manifesting in awkward imaginaries. The dream personas are rendered as complex character amalgams with nomadic ages, sexes, genders and phenotypes. Occurrences of lived “fact” elide with a hallucinatory real as speculation. In A Novelty, Bette B, an ageing quasi-academic artist researcher, and BØB, attuned urban rodent, are palindromic variants of a generic cast of Betty’s and Bob’s. The happenstance of their meeting on the super slick POMOC (PostOffice MotionCorridor) affects a trans-special contagion. These are the facts of the matter. The matters that come to concern both B’s are more slippery and elusive.

Sprach man in den sechziger Jahren von Bulat Okudžava, so meinte man vor allem den Sänger und Lyriker; fiel in den siebziger und achtziger Jahren sein Name, so dachte man an den Verfasser von Prosa mit historischer Thematik. Diesen nach außen sehr abrupten Wechsel zwischen den Gattungen nahmen ihm die einen sehr übel, die wenigen anderen feierten ihn als ernstzunehmenden Prosaiker. Unter diesem literarischen Aspekt stellt Okud žava eine der umstrittensten Persönlichkeiten der sowjetischen Gegenwartsliteratur dar, wobei auch oft politische Hintergründe eine Rolle spielten.
This book celebrates the life, work and influence of Professor Roger W.H. Sargent of Imperial College London. It does so through a range of original contributions that span the wide academic and industry interests of Professor Sargent. Roger Sargent passed away in late 2018, but his legacy lives on through his enormous academic tree, which traces to the early 1960s. That huge body of work has also had significant impacts on industrial practices. Roger was regarded as “the father of Process Systems Engineering (PSE)”. This area of Chemical Engineering continues to influence the modelling, design, control, optimization and integrated performance of industrial and related processes. This book highlights some of those impacts and the ongoing importance of PSE in helping to solve some of the grand challenges of our time.
Out of a wide perspective, the study examines the development of flood control in the region of the river Gürbe in Switzerland from 1855 to 2010. It shows not only technical progresses, but also changes in philosophy. The author illustrates how concepts of flood control have been implemented, which expectations and hopes were connected with them, and what effects the activities of flood control had.
