Abstract:
Der Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit Christa Wolfs Roman Kindheitsmuster (1976), einem der wichtigsten Romane der DDR-Literaturgeschichte. Der Beitrag geht auch auf die Rezeption des Romans ein. Denn wer sich in der Gegenwart mit Christa Wolf beschäftigt, sollte diese Rezeptionsgeschichte zur Kenntnis nehmen. Mit dem Roman entwickelt Christa Wolf eine neue Art autobiografischen Schreibens, deren Traditionen kurz angesprochen werden. Der Roman Kindheitsmuster erzählt von Nelly Jordan, die in den Jahren zwischen 1933 und 1947 heranwächst und von der erwachsenen Frau, die Jahrzehnte später ihre nun p

The cultural space of Roman Africa includes the territory of four provinces (Africa Proconsularis, Numidia, Mauretania Caesarea and Mauretania Tingiana), later united in the African Exarchate. Common borders, Mediterranean climate, more than a thousand-year history of horticulture and agriculture, starting with the Phoenician colonists who left to the Romans a rich heritage, the Romanization of the provinces, which ended with the granting of citizenship to the entire free population (edict of Caracalla 212th), the proximity of Italy and the common land holdings of Roman aristocrats on both sid

Abstract:
Résumé Le roman de Sergio Kokis Le maître de jeu propose une double réflexion sur l’éthique et l’écriture romanesque, et pose une question essentielle : comment écrire un récit de torture ? Au-delà de l’histoire et de ses personnages, cette étude du roman s’attardera au registre du corps du torturé, à interroger la façon dont on passe du témoignage (le récit) à l’écriture (le roman) et à voir comment la pensée éthique transforme la narration. Tenter de cerner ces éléments implique un désir de comprendre les enjeux éthiques et les problèmes romanesques qui sous-tendent cette histoire de torture

Abstract:
In 1830 a hoard of Roman silver weighing some 25 kilograms was recovered from farmland near Berthouville, between Rouen and Caen. The silver was mostly worked into drinking vessels and associated items such as jugs, ladles, and bowls. Two statuettes of the god Mercury confirmed this as a votive deposit, as indicated by various dedications from Romano-Gallic pilgrims, notably on nine pieces left by Quintus Domitius Tutus (‘Mr Safe’) in the mid-first century ad. Restored by conservation experts at the Getty Museum, the cache – along with several other treasures from Gaul – has served as witness

It is difficult to say that anything will be proven in this thesis of mine. I think of it more as an account of some things that happened in my artwork over the course of graduate school and my earlier development as an artist. Some influences are listed, but certainly not all of them. Likewise, the work that is mentioned in this paper represents a sampling rather than an in-depth survey. I don't have any tables or charts.

In Sweden, the Roma have the right to contribute to and influence policy measures that affect them. Authorities often fulfil their obligation to include Roma through the so-called reference groups. The authors see several problems with this model. First, the reference groups are deprived of agency, as they are often not involved at early stages in the planning, but rather informed and consulted on ready-made decisions. Second, an emphasis is placed on “Romani organisations” when nominating and selecting representatives, which encourages rapid creation of new organisations with few members and

Despite its extensive efforts at “image refurbishment” in recent years, Jobbik remains a populist, revisionist, racist, radical right-wing party that threatens to destabilize Hungary, the neighboring region, and the EU.

Conflicts between humans and birds likely have existed since agricultural practices began. Paintings from ancient Greek, Egyptian, and Roman civilizations depict birds attacking crops. In Great Britain, recording of efforts at reducing bird damage began in the 1400s, with books on bird control written in the 1600s. Even so, the problem persists. Avian damage to crops remains an issue today, but we also are concerned with damage to homes, businesses, and aircraft, and the possibility of disease transmission from birds to humans or livestock.

The discovery of the naval battlefield of the Battle of the Aegates (241 BCE) has provided archaeologists with information on battlefield deposition in the Hellenistic period. Ancient war-galleys were armed with a copper-alloy waterline naval ram, yet few have survived in the archaeological record. However, since 2004 twenty-five Roman and Carthaginian rams or rostra have been found at the Egadi Islands. Each ram was cast to fit a particular warship thus providing data on the warship’s nature.
