Описание: Boethius gehort zu den herausragenden Denkern der spatantiken Geistesgeschichte. Anders, als man vielleicht meinen wurde, ist diese Sicht auf Boethius in der Forschung allerdings nicht unumstritten und verhaltnisma?ig neu. Sie lasst eine Tendenz zur Neubewertung erkennen, die nicht nur Boethius, sondern auch das Denken seiner Zeit immer mehr in seiner Eigenstandigkeit zu wurdigen beginnt. So werden Boethius wie auch die Spatantike immer weniger nur als Instanzen der Vermittlung klassisch antiken Wissens in das christliche Mittelalter angesehen. Worin aber besteht die Originalitat des Boethius und des durch ihn wesentlich gepragten spatantiken Denkens? Kann die Spatantike als eine eigene geistesgeschichtliche Epoche betrachtet werden? Wie ist sie dann zu charakterisieren? Inwiefern ist Boethius als eine oder vielleicht sogar die paradigmatische Gestalt der Spatantike zu beschreiben? Diesen und weiteren Fragen gehen die Autorinnen und Autoren des vorliegenden Sammelbandes nach.

Описание: The undisputed masterpiece of fourteenth-century Spain by Juan Ruiz, Archpriest of Hita, affords a particularly privileged locus for the implementation of reader-response theory. As opposed to many medieval authors, Ruiz explicitly refuses to prescribe interpretation for his readership, a fact that has led to widely divergent critical readings of his fictional biography.

In this book, Curtis Gruenler proposes that the concept of the enigmatic, latent in a wide range of medieval thinking about literature, can help us better understand in medieval terms much of the era’s most enduring literature, from the riddles of the Anglo-Saxon bishop Aldhelm to the great vernacular works of Dante, Chaucer, Julian of Norwich, and, above all, Langland’s Piers Plowman. Riddles, rhetoric, and theology—the three fields of meaning of aenigma in medieval Latin—map a way of thinking about reading and writing obscure literature that was widely shared across the Middle Ages. The poetics of enigma links inquiry about language by theologians with theologically ambitious literature. Each sense of enigma brings out an aspect of this poetics. The playfulness of riddling, both oral and literate, was joined to a Christian vision of literature by Aldhelm and the Old English riddles of the Exeter Book. Defined in rhetoric as an obscure allegory, enigma was condemned by classical authorities but resurrected under the influence of Augustine as an aid to contemplation. Its theological significance follows from a favorite biblical verse among medieval theologians, “We see now through a mirror in an enigma, then face to face” (1 Cor. 13:12). Along with other examples of the poetics of enigma, Piers Plowman can be seen as a culmination of centuries of reflection on the importance of obscure language for knowing and participating in endless mysteries of divinity and humanity and a bridge to the importance of the enigmatic in modern literature. This book will be especially useful for scholars and undergraduate students interested in medieval European literature, literary theory, and contemplative theology.
This study investigates the influence of medieval liturgy on the literary work of Occitan poets during the 12th and 13th centuries. It focuses on the diverse effects emanating from metrical hymn structure, sacraments, prayers, and the veneration of the saints, and additionally explores the specific impact of liturgical metaphors on the language of the troubadours.

Описание: Violence against women has been a focus of transnational advocacy networks since the early 1980s, and the United Nations has, in intervening years, passed a series of resolutions to condemn, prevent, investigate, and punish this violence. Member states have committed to implementing this agenda. Yet, despite this buy-in at the global level, implementation at the domestic level remains uneven. Scholars have found that states are more likely to translate global standards into national laws when pressured by women's movements and international organizations. However, a dearth of research on the implementation -- at the national and street-levels -- of these international women's rights norms hampers an understanding of what happens after states pass laws. In Africa, where most states have not prioritized the prevention of violence against women, and the majority of perpetrators act with impunity, there is a major implementation gap. This gap is acute in some post-conflict countries on the continent. Thus, despite the presence of laws on various forms of violence against women in most African countries, justice remains inaccessible to most victims. In Global Norms and Local Action, Peace A. Medie studies the domestic implementation of international norms by examining how and why two post-conflict states in Africa, Liberia and Cфte d'Ivoire, have differed in their responses to rape and domestic violence. Specifically, she looks at the roles of the United Nations and women's movements in the establishment of specialized criminal justice sector agencies, and the referral of cases for prosecution. She argues that variation in implementation in Liberia and Cфte d'Ivoire can be explained by the levels of international and domestic pressures that states face and by the favorability of domestic political and institutional conditions. Medie's study is based on interviews with over 300 policymakers, bureaucrats, staff at the UN and NGOs, police officers, and survivors of domestic violence and rape -- an unprecedented depth of research into women's rights and gender violence norm implementation in post-conflict countries. Furthermore, through her interviews with survivors of violence, Medie explains not only how states implement anti-rape and anti-domestic violence norms, but also how women experience and are affected by these norms. She draws on this research to recommend that states adopt a holistic approach to addressing violence against women.

E' una breve visione d'insieme di tematiche da considerare e non tratta il tema in maniera esaustiva. Esso nasce per fare da guida introduttiva ed utile ad approfondire il tema tra le aziende interessate all'internazionalizzazione negli USA e i consulenti Buoyant Capital. I consulenti sono in grado di suggerire piano di business per l'internazionalizzazione che usi la citt di New York (NYC) come base principale delle attivit di penetrazione del mercato statunitense e nord-americano in generale. Per una PMI spesso il desiderio di vendere oltre il mercato domestico mediante l'esportazione di prodotti, Nel moderno mercato globale questo concetto non pi adeguato a causa del fatto che l'accanita competizione lanciata dai Paesi a basso costo di produzione e la facilit di trovare le soluzioni logistiche hanno esteso il raggio d'azione delle PMI, che ora possono vendere e approvvigionarsi ovunque. Mentre questa la storia degli ultimi 25 anni, e le grandi multinazionali hanno esteso la loro gittata a ogni continente, ci che negli ultimi 10 anni cambiato decisamente il grado con cui ogni azienda pu operare globalmente utilizzando comunicazioni internet a basso costo, logistica a basso costo e forza lavoro qualificata con mobilit internazionale.
