Episodios Nacionales: Cadiz

Die Novellen sind in zwei Gruppen zu je f&uuml;nf Geschichten zusammengefasst.
Ein Vorwort schildert Handel und Wandel im fiktiven St&auml;dtchen Seldwyla,
einem >>wonnigen und sonnigen Ort... irgendwo in der Schweiz<<. Die scheinbare
Idylle ist indes br&uuml;chig: Kleinb&uuml;rgerliche Enge, Existenzn&ouml;te und gest&ouml;rte
famili&auml;re Verh&auml;ltnisse - wiederkehrende Hauptmotive im OEuvre von Keller
- bestimmen den Alltag der Seldwyler, die nichtsdestotrotz mit Sympathie
und feiner Ironie als eine Ansammlung skurriler Au&szlig;enseiter geschildert
werden. Zu ihnen geh&ouml;rt etwa Pankraz, der Schmoller, der aus der Enge von
Dorf und Elternhaus in die weite Welt flieht, wo ihn ein eitles Fr&auml;ulein
und ein wilder L&ouml;we von seiner Verstocktheit heilen. Einen ernsten Erz&auml;hlton
schl&auml;gt die aus dem Rahmen fallende Erz&auml;hlung Romeo und Julia auf dem Dorfe
an, die das shakespearesche Drama in die Wirkungsvolle Naturkulisse der
l&auml;ndlichen Schweiz verlegt. Unerbittlich strebt das Geschehen zum tragischen
H&ouml;hepunkt, den Doppelselbstmord des gesellschaftlich ge&auml;chteten Liebespaars.
Den Abschluss des ersten Bands bildet das an E. T. A. R Hoffmann gemahnende
M&auml;rchen Spiegel, das K&auml;tzchen. Zu den popul&auml;rsten Erz&auml;hlungen des zweiten
Bands geh&ouml;ren Kleider machen Leute, die tragikomische Geschichte des gar
nicht tapferen Schneiderleins Wenzel, das gesellschaftliche Anerkennung
durch den Diebstahl eines kostbaren Gewands erringen will und kl&auml;glich
scheitert, und Die missbrauchten Liebesbriefe. Gemildert wird der bisweilen
grimmige Humor des Autors durch die starke Verankerung seiner Prosa in
Brauchtum und Kultur seines Heimatlands, die den Erz&auml;hlungen einen volkst&uuml;mlichen
Charakter verleiht.

Die Leute von Seldwyla. Erzählungen. Textausgabe mit editorischer Notiz, Anmerkungen/Worterklärungen, Literaturhinweisen und Nachwort

From the reviews:"This book is unquestionably the most significant publication on Babylonian mathematical astronomy since Neugebauer’s ACT. Living up to the standard set by Neugebauer is no small challenge, but there is no doubt that Ossendrijver has succeeded in that task, producing both a clearly written and technically outstanding study of these highly important texts." (J.M. Steele, Journal for the History of Astronomy, August, 2013)“The available corpus of Babylonian texts concerning mathematical astronomy … consists of about 440 tablets, dating roughly between 450 and 50 BC. … very readable photographs of the tablets are provided. … this book will allow scholars with an inclination toward mathematics, and an interest in the history of science in antiquity, to be in contact with its raw products without having to devote their entire lives to such study.” (Bruno Poizat, Mathematical Reviews, April, 2013)

Babylonian Mathematical Astronomy: Procedure Texts

“For this Compendium, the editors have succeeded in bringing together a team of highly competent authors comprising 28 experts from the fields of university research, regulation, and legislation. …For the first time, general information on the prevention and  avoidance of food spoilage has been published in one comprehensive book devoted to this topic.  …In summary, this is an excellent and highly topical publication on ‘food microbiology and safety’ that is enthusiastically recommended to all those interested in the subject.” (Leopold Jirovetz, University of Vienna, in Die Ernährung/Nutrition)

Compendium of the Microbiological Spoilage of Foods and Beverages

This book is highly recommended for all those interested in historical linguistics, linguistic typology, language contact and language change ... this book represents a good opportunity to meditate, on the one side, on models of language evolution and, on the other side, on actual phenomena of language change.

From the reviews of the second edition:"The book provides a comprehensive view in the field of apoptosis, senescence, and cancer therapies. I recommend this book to PhD students in clinical and experimental oncology, pharmacology as well as to lecturers in biological disciplines." (J. Sedlák, Neoplasma, September, 2008)"This book aims to explain basic biological processes and signalling pathways and to link that knowledge to the anticancer drugs associated with those pathways. … The book is generally well written and extremely informative. The information within is as up to date … . I have certainly learnt a lot from reading this book. … recommending it to a laboratory/clinical group or library for purchase." (A Young, British Journal of Cancer, Vol. 100 (5), 2009)“The purpose of the book is to contribute to an understanding of the growth arrest and cell death pathways mediating the response to chemotherapy in tumour cells. … provides basic scientists and clinicians with a deeper and more thorough understanding of the cellular responses of malignant cells to common therapeutic modalities, which may determine the effectiveness of the anti-cancer treatment. This work is an interesting overview of the topics described above and it is well written by experts in the field.” (Sylvie Rottey, Acta Clinica Belgica, Vol. 65 (2), 2010)

'An entertainingly anecdotal and lovingly partisan history.' Independent.
Homer called salt a divine substance. Plato described it as especially
dear to the gods. As Mark Kurlanksy so brilliantly relates in his world-encompassing
new book, salt has shaped civilization from the beginning, and its story
is a glittering, often surprising part of the history of mankind. So valuable
that it has often served as currency (and still does in places today),
salt inspired the earliest trade routes across unknown oceans and the remotest
deserts...

Salt

"Rabbi Angel combs the wisdom of Jewish tradition, based on his half-century of teaching the three books of wisdom literature, supposedly written by King Solomon at different stages of his life. He does a masterful job, bringing illustrative material from his wide reading in literature, philosophy and theology, plus the millennia-old traditions of Jewish texts.  The reader can select any short chapter, and come away enlightened and inspired." - Jewish Media Review

"Wonderful…. The wisdom books of the Hebrew Bible are the Torah for our age, and in Rabbi Angel's hands you will see why. If you are looking for a new take on ancient wisdom, this book is it."—Rabbi Rami Shapiro, translator and annotator, Ecclesiastes: Annotated & Explained and Proverbs: Annotated & Explained"Who knew that the ancient wisdom of King Solomon could be so relevant and urgent for our lives today? Angel guides us on a rich, provocative tour of the biblical books ascribed to Solomon, and makes us look more honestly at our own choices, our moral courage and our yearning for spirituality."—Abigail Pogrebin, author, Stars of David: Prominent Jews Talk about Being Jewish“Living in a world in which divisiveness seems to reign, it is gratifying that Rabbi Angel in this book reminds us that diversity of thought and unity of spirit can live together.”—Rabbi Joseph Potasnik, executive vice president, New York Board of Rabbis“Rabbi Marc Angel—a master teacher, scholar, rabbi, guide; truly a wise man—brings us ever closer to the Eternal in this thoughtful, moving and challenging text, a reflection of the wisdom of Solomon and the uplifting personal and religious wisdom of its author. I couldn't put it down as new insights emerged with every reading.”—Rabbi Sheldon Zimmerman, The Jewish Center of the Hamptons“Immensely engaging…. Should be on the bedside table of every person curious about the meaning and practice of the Jewish religion.”—Naomi Ragen, author, The Sisters Weiss, The Tenth Song and other best-selling novels“Holds a wide-angle lens on Judaism, revealing a natural balance and integration of religion with the whole of life.”—Rabbi Elie Kaplan Spitz, author, Increasing Wholeness: Jewish Wisdom and Guided Meditation to Strengthen and Calm Body, Heart, Mind and Spirit“A powerful and important read for all Jews … no matter how religious or observant you are…. A beautiful tapestry to guide you to be a better Jew and a better human being.”—Rabbi Asher Lopatin, president, Yeshivat Chovevei Torah
