Liebe Leserinnen und Leser! Es waren zwei deutsche Kartografen, die dem Doppelkontinent jenseits des Atlantiks den Namen Amerika verpassten. Martin Waldseemüller und Mathias Ringmann verzeichneten als Erste den Begriff auf ihrer großformatigen Weltkarte aus dem Jahr 1507. Von ihr existiert nach derzeitigem Wissen nur noch ein einziges Exemplar, ein Nachdruck aus dem Jahr 1516. Doch die Karte wirkt ungewöhnlich modern. Südamerika ist darauf so abgebildet, wie es damals noch nicht bekannt gewesen sein konnte. Unser Autor Stephan Kroener besuchte den Geburtsort von Waldseemüller und den Fundplatz der berühmten Karte, das Schloss Wolfegg in Oberschwaben. Im Gespräch mit Forschern und Experten ging er der sonderbaren Entstehungsgeschichte des Kartenwerks (ab S. 12) und seiner Wiederentdeckung (ab S. 24) auf den Grund. In dieser Ausgabe lesen Sie auch den letzten Teil unserer Serie »Kinder im Zweiten Weltkrieg«. Wer damals minderjährig war, gehört heute zur Generation der Ältesten – das gab uns den Anlass für den Dreiteiler. Das Trauma, das die Menschen damals bei Bombardierungen, auf der Flucht und an der Front erlebt haben, erleiden heute erneut viele Menschen mitten in Europa. Russland hat mit seinem Überfall auf die Ukraine am 24. Februar 2022 einen Krieg angezettelt, in dem Zivilisten gezielt beschossen und bombardiert werden. Gefährliche, imperialistische Ideologien brechen sich gewaltsam Bahn. Welche Folgen dieser Krieg für Europa haben könnte, lassen die Ereignisse der Vergangenheit erahnen. Eine aufschlussreiche Lektüre wünscht Ihnen Karin Schlott, Redaktion Spektrum der Wissenschaft.

The sea monsters on medieval and Renaissance maps, whether swimming vigorously, gamboling amid the waves, attacking ships, or simply displaying themselves for our appreciation, are one of the most visually engaging elements on these maps, and yet they have never been carefully studied. The subject is important not only in the history of cartography, art, and zoological illustration, but also in the history of the geography of the "marvelous" and of western conceptions of the ocean. Moreover, the sea monsters depicted on maps can supply important insights into the sources, influences, and methods of the cartographers who drew or painted them. In this highly-illustrated book the author analyzes the most important examples of sea monsters on medieval and Renaissance maps produced in Europe, beginning with the earliest mappaemundi on which they appear in the 10th century and continuing to the end of the 16th century.

Wenn Kolumbus das gewusst hätte: Neben phantastischen nicht nachweisbaren Reisen der Ägypter, Phönizier, Olmeken und Chinesen waren bereits nachweislich die Wikinger, die Basken und mehrfach die Portugiesen vor ihm in Amerika. Dieses Buch beschreibt den spannenden Wettlauf um die Entdeckung der Welt unter dem Einfluss der römisch-katholischen Kirche. Der Leser erfährt, wie die Griechen bereits im 4.-3. Jh. vor Christus den Erdumfang genau bestimmten und wie sich auf Basis physikalischer Gesetze die Großkreisnavigation entwickelt hat. Daneben enthält das Buch eine detaillierte Zeittafel, anhand derer die verschiedenen Entwicklungen und Entdeckungsreisen noch einmal im genauen zeitlichen Ablauf nachvollzogen werden können. Der Kreis schließt sich über die Wirtschaftsgeschichte. Der wirtschaftliche Erfolg der Entdeckungsreisen lähmte als Midas-Fluch die strukturelle Wirtschaftskraft in Spanien und Portugal, was bis heute, in die Zeit der Wirtschafts- und Finanzkrisen, hereinreicht.

The Andes are attracting global interest again: they hold valuable mineral resources, tourists appreciate their great natural beauty and the diversity of indigenous cultures, climbers scale rock and ice faces, while many others are intrigued by regional political developments, such as the Bolivarian revolution in Venezuela or the almost unfettered hegemony of the neoliberal economic model in Chile. This volume is the first attempt for decades to present a complete overview of the longest mountain chain on the planet – a region of remarkable climatic, floristic and geologic diversity, where advanced civilization developed well before the arrival of the Spanish. Today the Andes continue to be characterized by their ethnic, demographic, cultural and economic diversity, as well as by the disparity of local socioeconomic groups. The Andean countries pursue a wide range of approaches to tackle the challenges of making the best use of their natural and cultural potential without damaging their ecological basis, as well as to overcome economic disparity and foster social cohesion. This book provides insights into this unique region and its most pressing issues, complemented by a wealth of pictures and comprehensive diagrams, which, in sum, help to better understand these fascinating mountains.

The problems we face in the 21st century require innovative thinking from all of us. Be it students, academics, business researchers of government policy makers. Hopes for improving our healthcare, food supply, community safety and environmental sustainability depend on the pervasive application of research solutions. The research heroes who take on the immense problems of our time face bigger than ever challenges, but if they adopt potent guiding principles and effective research lifecycle strategies, they can produce the advances that will enhance the lives of many people. These inspirational research leaders will break free from traditional thinking, disciplinary boundaries, and narrow aspirations. They will be bold innovators and engaged collaborators, who are ready to lead, yet open to new ideas, self-confident, yet empathetic to others. In this book, Ben Shneiderman recognizes the unbounded nature of human creativity, the multiplicative power of teamwork, and the catalytic effects of innovation. He reports on the growing number of initiatives to promote more integrated approaches to research so as to promote the expansion of these efforts. It is meant as a guide to students and junior researchers, as well as a manifesto for senior researchers and policy makers, challenging widely-held beliefs about how applied innovations evolve and how basic breakthroughs are made, and helping to plot the course towards tomorrow's great advancements.

Multi-Ethnic Britain 2000+ provides an encompassing survey of artistic responses to the changes in the British cultural climate in the early years of the 21st century. It traces topical reactions to new forms of racism and religious fundamentalism, to legal as well as 'illegal' immigration, and to the threat of global terror; yet it also highlights new forms of intercultural communication and convivial exchange. Framed by contributions from novelists Patrick Neate and Rajeev Balasubramanyam, Multi-Ethnic Britain 2000+ showcases how artistic representations in literature, film, music and the visual arts reflect and respond to social and political discourses, and how they contribute to our understanding of the current (trans)cultural situation in Britain. The contributions in this volume cover a wide range of writers such as Graham Swift, Ian McEwan, Zadie Smith, Jackie Kay, Nadeem Aslam, Gautam Malkani, Nirpal Dhaliwal and Monica Ali; films ranging from Gurinder Chadha's Bend It Like Beckham and Bride and Prejudice to Michael Winterbottom's In This World and Alfonso Cuarón's Children of Men; paintings and photography by innovative black and Asian British Artists; and dubstep music.
