Die Niederländische Republik war in vielerlei Hinsicht einzigartig im Europa der Frühen Neuzeit. Die hohe Urbanisierung, die geringe Zahl an Analphabeten und die religiöse Toleranz waren nur einige der vielen Besonderheiten. Hierzu gehörten auch der ungewöhnlich große Kunstbesitz und die immense Produktivität der Maler, die dieser Epoche den Namen "Goldenes Zeitalter" gab. Niederländische See- und Kaufleute verbanden, ausgehend von Nord- und Ostsee, die Weltmeere und vermittelten die Güter der entlegensten Regionen. So schildert das Buch die niederländische Präsenz in der Welt, die Interaktion mit den einheimischen Gesellschaften sowie die davon ausgehenden künstlerischen Wechselwirkungen vor Ort einschließlich ihrer Rückwirkungen auf Europa. Die Leser*innen folgen auf diese Weise der Kupferstecherin Maria Sibylla Merian auf der Reise nach Surinam, erleben die Förderung niederländischer Künstler und Gelehrter durch Christina von Schweden, werden Zeugen einer wahrhaften "Hollandomanie" in Japan und erfahren außerdem, wie Rembrandt die Kunst am indischen Mogulhof imitierte.

From classics and history to Jewish rabbinic narratives and the canonical and noncanonical gospels of earliest Christianity, the relevance of studying the novel of the later classical periods of Greek and Rome is widely endorsed. Ancient novels contain insights beyond literary theories and philosophical musings to new sources for understanding the popular culture of antiquity. Some scholars, in fact, refer to ancient novels as “alternative histories,” for they tell history implicitly rather than with the intentional biases of the historian. The Novel in the Ancient World surveys the new approaches and insights to the ancient novel and wrestles with issues such as the development, transformation, and christianization of the novel (Spirit-inspired versus inspired by the Muses).

The Position of the German Language in the World focuses on the global position of German and the factors which work towards sustaining its use and utility for international communication. From the perspective of the global language constellation, the detailed data analysis of this substantial research project depicts German as an example of a second-rank language. The book also provides a model for analysis and description of international languages other than English. It offers a framework for strengthening the position of languages such as Arabic, Chinese, French, Portuguese, Spanish and others and for countering exaggerated claims about the global monopoly position of English. This comprehensive handbook of the state of the German language in the world was originally published in 2015 by Walter de Gruyter in German and has been critically acclaimed. Suitable for scholars and researchers of the German language, the handbook shows in detail how intricately and thoroughly German and other second-rank languages are tied up with a great number of societies and how these statistics support or weaken the languages’ functions and maintenance.

The history of war is also a history of its justification. The contributions to this book argue that the justification of war rarely happens as empty propaganda. While it is directed at mobilizing support and reducing resistance, it is not purely instrumental. Rather, the justification of force is part of an incessant struggle over what is to count as justifiable behaviour in a given historical constellation of power, interests, and norms. This way, the justification of specific wars interacts with international order as a normative frame of reference for dealing with conflict. The justification of war shapes this order, and is being shaped by it. As the justification of specific wars entails a critique of war in general, the use of force in international relations has always been accompanied by political and scholarly discourses on its appropriateness. In much of the pertinent literature the dominating focus is on theoretical or conceptual debates as a mirror of how international normative orders evolve. In contrast, the focus of the present volume is on theory and political practice as sources for the re- and de-construction of the way in which the justification of war and international order interact. With contributions from international law, history, and international relations, and from Western and non-Western perspectives, this book offers a unique collection of papers exploring the continuities and changes in war discourses as they respond to and shape normative orders from early modern times to the present.

Arab nationalism has been one of the dominant ideologies in the Middle East and North Africa since the early twentieth century. However, a clear definition of Arab nationalism, even as a subject of scholarly inquiry, does not yet exist. Arab Nationalism sheds light on cultural expressions of Arab nationalism and the sometimes contradictory meanings attached to it in the process of identity formation in the modern world. It presents nationalism as an experienceable set of identity markers – in stories, visual culture, narratives of memory, and struggles with ideology, sometimes in culturally sophisticated forms, sometimes in utterly vulgar forms of expression. Drawing upon various case studies, the book transcends a conventional history that reduces nationalism in the Arab lands to a pattern of political rise and decline. It offers a glimpse at ways in which Arabs have constructed an identifiable shared national culture, and it critically dissects conceptions about Arab nationalism as an easily graspable secular and authoritarian ideology modeled on Western ideas and visions of modernity. This book offers an entirely new portrayal of nationalism and a crucial update to the field, and as such, is indispensable reading for students, scholars and policymakers looking to gain a deeper understanding of nationalism in the Arab world.

In der Teetasse spiegeln sich zwei Jahrtausende Weltgeschichte wider. Schon früh ein Getränk am chinesischen Kaiserhof und in buddhistischen Klöstern, eroberte der Tee seit dem 17. Jahrhundert Europa. Die Mediziner versprachen sich von ihm Gesundheit und ein langes Leben, am gepflegten Teetisch wurde er wiederum zum Inbegriff höchster Genussfreude. Auch die Deutschen lernten ihn kennen und schätzen. Nicht nur in Ostfriesland, sondern ebenso in Hamburg, Berlin, Weimar und Baden Baden verspricht der Tee bis heute Genuss und Lebensfreude. Das Buch schildert in lebendiger Sprache Anbau, Handel und Konsum eines einzigartigen Getränks. Ebenso hinterfragt es die sich immer noch um den Tee rankenden Legenden. Es liefert einen umfassenden Überblick von den frühesten Anfängen in Asien bis in die Gegenwart und beleuchtet ausführlich die Entwicklung des Teegenusses in Deutschland.

Windhoek, capital city of South West Africa or modern Namibia, represents an extraordinary showpiece for overlapping colonial planning regimes. For the first time, this book focuses on the decades between both World Wars when German and South African planning laws were amalgamated. It reveals the actions taken to implement a system of residential segregation from a transnational perspective. As the analysis demonstrates, Windhoek tended to replicate the colonial idea of a Dual City. But in fact the administration created a Hybrid City and there was no predetermined path to apartheid.
