Von der Volkskunst zur proletarischen Kunst

CC BY

<P>In der vorliegenden Arbeit sollen in unterschiedlicher Manier Konzeptionen sichtbar werden, die die literarische Evolution aufhalten, überwinden wollen, um die Kunst am Leben auszurichten. Diese Arbeit ist theoretisch-historisch. Ausgehend von der Berechtigung der Frage nach dem Verhältnis von Volk oder Proletariat und Literatur und der Notwendigkeit einer Überwindung der Entfremdung sollen hier die Ansätze rekonstruiert werden, die den Grund für diese Entfremdung in der Kunst selbst sahen. </P>

Born in Exile

George Gissing

PD-US

Leaving his lowly Midlands home to pursue his career as a journalist among the free-thinkers of London, Godwin Peak's origins and poverty hinder him at every turn. Publishing an article attacking the hypocrisy of the Victorian Church gives him his break. His future dims, however, when he falls catastrophically in love with the devout Sidwell Warricombe.

Biomechanics Energetics of Natural Assisted Human Comparative Movement Locomotion

CC BY

Movement and locomotion have always been key activities for all animals, being related to the most crucial life functions: retrieving food, facing environmental issues and mating. Humans developed complex upper arms movements and bipedal gaits in order to move and locomote. To enhance their performance, they started inventing smart passive mechanical tools. This need arose from intrinsic limitations of their muscle–joint–bone systems and metabolic power availability. Newly invented devices were mainly introduced in order to cope with such constraints. The aim of this Special Issue is to advance knowledge regarding symmetry, biomechanics and energetics of passively assisted human movement and locomotion.

Nonlinear Functional Analysis and Its Applications

CC BY

This book consists of nine papers covering a number of basic ideas, concepts, and methods of nonlinear analysis, as well as some current research problems. Thus, the reader is introduced to the fascinating theory around Brouwer's fixed point theorem, to Granas' theory of topological transversality, and to some advanced techniques of critical point theory and fixed point theory. Other topics include discontinuous differential equations, new results of metric fixed point theory, robust tracker design problems for various classes of nonlinear systems, and periodic solutions in computer virus propagation models.

Classical Trade Protectionism 1815-1914

CC BY-NC-ND

Including contributions from such figures as Douglas Irwin, James Foreman-Peck, Kevin O'Rourke and Max-Stefan-Schulze, this key book summarizes the recent empirical research carried out on the issue of the classical period of trade protectionism. It provides a basis for revising widely held views on the standard effects of tariffs on economic structures and progress, as well as a historical perspective on recent developments. Long-held views on modern trade policies have been challenged by the introduction of recent theoretical developments in international economics and in measurement techniques brought about in the 1960s and 70s. One question in particular has attracted attention and has contributed to the bringing to light of a number of previously ignored measurement and interpretation problems: the assessment of French and British nineteenth century trade policies. This noteworthy volume examines the theoretical and practical problems associated with the assessment and measurement of the direct impact of tariffs, prohibitions and quotas on domestic prices, output structure and competitiveness. The contributors also examine the direct and long-run consequences of protectionist measures on particular economies, utilizing evidence from in-depth investigations of trade statistics as well as ‘best practice’ statistical techniques such as effective protection, elasticity of demand and revealed comparative advantage.

Bistatic HF Radar

CC BY

The proliferation of HF radar systems for ocean remote sensing and maritime surveillance continues apace, with hundreds of such radars now deployed around the world. The overwhelming majority of these radars operate in the conventional monostatic configuration, with the transmitting and receiving systems collocated or closely spaced; this simple geometry has obvious advantages in terms of cost, siting requirements, communications, maintenance, signal processing, and echo interpretation, and it has been adopted by HF radars exploiting line-of-sight, surface wave, and skywave propagation modalities. All these considerations notwithstanding, in some circumstances there can be compelling reasons to implement bistatic configurations, defined as geometries in which the separation between transmitter and receiver is comparable with the range to the zones being interrogated. Factors that can drive this decision include energy budget, desire to exploit hybrid propagation modes, scattering characteristics of the targets of interest, properties of the clutter, survivability, and covertness. This book, a compilation of papers by leading researchers in the field, offers a panoramic account of the state of the art in bistatic HF radar. Topics covered include system design, HF propagation and scattering, signal processing, echo interpretation, and applications in the maritime domain. Supported with extensive references to the literature, this book should serve as an essential source for practitioners keen to expand the capabilities of their HF radar systems.

Die strafrechtliche Behandlung gefährlicher Straftäter

CC BY-SA

The thesis analyzes a treatment of dangerous criminals on society with viewpoint of comparative criminal law in Germany and South Korea. In particular, with a focus on "preventive detention" as a "measure of improving and security", at first, basic theory of the Measure of Improving and Security is referred for the analysis of Preventive Detention. At the end of the thesis possible alternatives to Preventive Detention are reviewed. As a result, duality of the criminal law and Measure of Improving and Security will have to be acceptable to the Criminal Code, but the focus of the criminal treatment of dangerous criminals should also be successful treatment and re-socialization, alternatives that do not deprive of freedom emphasized to hold a dominant position.Die Dissertation wird von dem Anliegen getragen, den Umgang der Gesellschaft mit gefährlichen Straftätern mit den Mitteln des Strafrechts (rechtsvergleichend für Deutschland und Korea) zu analysieren. Im Fokus steht hierbei insbesondere die Sicherungsverwahrung als Maßregel der Besserung und Sicherung, wobei zu Beginn der Arbeit die Einbettung selbiger in das zweispurige System in den Blick genommen wird, am Ende der Schrift dann auch mögliche Alternativen beleuchtet werden. Im Ergebnis wird die Zweispurigkeit des Strafrechts und die Aufnahme der Maßregeln der Besserung und Sicherung in das koreanische Strafgesetzbuch befürwortet, aber zugleich betont, dass der Schwerpunkt der strafrechtlichen Behandlung von gefährlichen Straftätern auf einer erfolgreichen Therapie und Resozialisierung liegen muss und dass insoweit nicht freiheitsentziehende Alternativen Vorrang besitzen sollten.

Deutsche und russische Literatur an der Schwelle zur Moderne

CC BY

Diese Arbeit ist aus einer (scheinbar) einfachen Frage entstanden, zugleich aber versucht sie, ein allgemeines Problem zu erörtern. Die Frage lautet: Wo spielt sich eigentlich die Handlung der "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre" ab? Ist es eine "wirkliche" Welt, eine Welt also, die wir "sonst auch kennen" oder - angesichts des zeitlichen Abstandes, der uns von dieser Welt trennt - die wir auch mit anderen, nicht literarischen, auf jeden Fall außerhalb des Werkes selbstliegenden Mitteln (etwa mit Hilfe der historischen Forschung) uns erschließen können? Können wir noch von einer "Wirklichkeit an sich" überhaupt reden? Oder ist sie uns fragwürdig geworden? Oder sehen wir darin eben nur einen - Begriff? Das letztere ist für diese Arbeit der Fall.
