As a consequence of Sinn FA(c)in's connection with the IRA, the military side of the republican movement has tended to overshadow the political, both in terms of its internal operation and strategic choices and in terms of the attention that it has attracted from scholars, writers and journalists. However, since the 1998 Good Friday Agreement, Sinn FA(c)in has experienced substantial growth, in terms of electoral results and party support, bot...

The story combines the experiences of Krönke with approximately 400 photographs (most which are unpublished), hand drawn maps, and original documents, to tell the story of a veteran of Germany's elite Panzerwaffe and feared tiger tanks. His initial experience was in training with panzer...

Viktor Zander investigates the immigrant community of Slavic Baptists in Victoria and analyzes the relationship between ethnic and religious identities as well as their social dynamics. "Identity" and "marginality" are addressed as crucial issues for Slavic immigrants and their Australian-born children. T...

Past scholarship on the prison-escapes in the Acts of the Apostles has tended to focus on lexical similarities to Euripides' Bacchae, going so far as to argue for direct literary dependence. Moving beyond such explanations, the present study argues that miraculous prison-escape was a central event in a traditional and culturally significant story about the introduction and foundation of cults - a story discernable in the Bacchae and other anci...

Nach wie vor wird das Verhältnis des späten Mittelalters zur anbrechenden Neuzeit kontrovers diskutiert. Manche sehen im 14. und 15. Jahrhundert eine Periode des Verfalls, andere betonen die prägende und innovative Rolle dieser Epoche für die Neuzeit. Der 31. Band der Miscellanea Mediaevalia wirft einen interdisziplinären Blick auf diese Zeitspanne und wendet sich dabei auch kritisch klassischen Einschätzungen zu. Die über dreißig Beiträge beh...

Christian Hiebaum untersucht die politische Dimension der juristischen Argumentation. Er zeigt, wie sich zwei weit verbreitete ¿erzeugungen, die einander zu widersprechen scheinen, doch vereinbaren lassen: die ¿erzeugung, dass Rechtsanwendung ein politisches Unternehmen ist, und die ¿erzeugung, dass Rechtsanwender notwendig wahrheitsorientiert verfahren. Dies erfordert eine gr¿ndliche Auseinandersetzung mit der Interpretation von Rechtsnormen ...

Welche Bedeutung kam dem biographischen Wissenssegment im Kontext der Bildungskultur des 2. Jh. n. Chr. zu? Welche Formen wurden von zeitgen¿ssischen Autoren zur literarischen Pr¿ntation von Personen gew¿t? Unter dieser doppelten Leitfrage werden hier Personendarstellungen in den Briefen des j¿ngeren Plinius, dem Miszellanwerk des Gellius und den Kaiserbiographien Suetons in einer gattungs¿bergreifend angelegten Perspektive untersucht. Zu den ...

Die Satire treibt sich heimatlos im Niemandsland herum, sucht ständig nach ihren Grenzen, um sich daran zu reiben. Und Rumpelstilzchen, mit dem gespitzten Griffel in der Sudelhand, murmelt: «Viel Feind, viel Ehr», während es lästerlich kichernd durch Minenfelder kurvt und altmodische rote Anmerkungen ins Drehbuch der Globalisierer, Neoliberalen, Populisten und sonstigen Weltveränderer kritzelt.Die in diesem Band gruppierten 36 Niederträchtigke...

One of the most exciting recent developments in the study of Chinese literature has been the rediscovery of an extremely rich and diverse tradition of women's writing of the imperial period (221 BCE-1911 CE). Many of these writings are of considerable literary quality. Others provide us with moving insights into the lives and feelings of a surprisingly diverse group of women living in Confucian China, a society that perhaps more than any other...

The volume is a collection of 12 papers which focus on empirical and theoretical issues associated with syntactic phenomena falling under the rubric of Relativized Minimality (Rizzi 1990) or, in more recent terms, Minimal Link Condition (MLC, Chomsky 1995).
