Jahrhundertealt, braun verfärbt und in Fetzen erhalten – Textilien aus der Vergangenheit sind oft wenig ansehnlich. Aber das macht sie nicht weniger spannend. Was alte Stoffe über das Leben in früheren Epochen verraten, zeigen Funde aus Nordeuropa, genauer gesagt aus Island und Grönland. Vor mehr als 1000 Jahren hatten Wikinger beide Inseln besiedelt. Und die Frauen dieser Gemeinschaften stellten an Webstühlen Textilien her. Anhand der Machart der Webstoffe haben Fachleute nun Neues über die überraschend einflussreiche Rolle der Frauen entdeckt. Die Wissenschaftsjournalistin Francine Russo unterhielt sich mit den Forschenden, allen voran mit Michèle Hayeur Smith (ab S. 14). Die Archäologin fand nach jahrelangem Studium von Textilfunden heraus, wie die Wikingerinnen und ihre Nachkommen Stoffe zu einer Währung der nordischen Welt machten. Wie in unserer Titelgeschichte dreht sich in »Spektrum Geschichte« alles um die Vergangenheit. Doch auch uns holen aktuelle Entwicklungen ein. Im vergangenen Jahr sind die Kosten für Energie sowie für den Druck und Versand deutlich gestiegen. Und was wir lange vermeiden konnten, dem müssen wir nun nachgeben: Ab dieser Ausgabe 2/23 erhöht sich der Heftpreis – im Einzelverkauf auf 6,50 Euro, im Abonnement um 20 Cent pro Ausgabe. Die Preise der Digitalabos bleiben unverändert. Die neuen Abopreise gelten bei Vorauszahlung jedoch erst ab der nächsten Rechnung. Trotz dieser Nachricht hoffe ich, Sie genießen Ihr »Spektrum Geschichte«. Ich wünsche Ihnen eine aufschlussreiche Lektüre. Bleiben Sie uns gewogen! Karin Schlott, Redaktion Spektrum der Wissenschaft.

A sweeping intellectual history of the role of wealth in the church in the last days of the Roman Empire Jesus taught his followers that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven. Yet by the fall of Rome, the church was becoming rich beyond measure. Through the Eye of a Needle is a sweeping intellectual and social history of the vexing problem of wealth in Christianity in the waning days of the Roman Empire, written by the world's foremost scholar of late antiquity. Peter Brown examines the rise of the church through the lens of money and the challenges it posed to an institution that espoused the virtue of poverty and called avarice the root of all evil. Drawing on the writings of major Christian thinkers such as Augustine, Ambrose, and Jerome, Brown examines the controversies and changing attitudes toward money caused by the influx of new wealth into church coffers, and describes the spectacular acts of divestment by rich donors and their growing influence in an empire beset with crisis. He shows how the use of wealth for the care of the poor competed with older forms of philanthropy deeply rooted in the Roman world, and sheds light on the ordinary people who gave away their money in hopes of treasure in heaven. Through the Eye of a Needle challenges the widely held notion that Christianity's growing wealth sapped Rome of its ability to resist the barbarian invasions, and offers a fresh perspective on the social history of the church in late antiquity.

One woman's quest to die with dignity may doom them all. A multi-dimensional explosion hurls the starship's few passengers across the galaxies and onto an uncharted barren tundra. With no technical skills and scant supplies, the survivors face a bleak end in an alien world. One brave woman holds the daring answer, but it is the most desperate one possible. Elegant and electric, We Who Are About To... brings us face to face with our basic assumptions about our will to live. While most of the stranded tourists decide to defy the odds and insist on colonizing the planet and creating life, the narrator decides to practice the art of dying. When she is threatened with compulsory reproduction, she defends herself with lethal force. Originally published in 1977, this is one of the most subtle, complex, and exciting science fiction novels ever written about the attempt to survive a hostile alien environment. It is characteristic of Russ's genius that such a readable novel is also one of her most intellectually intricate.

Silent, upon a peak in Nevèrÿon. The enchanted land of Nevèrÿon is the most fascinating fantasy empire ever mapped by a modern word-enchanter - a realm of nameless terror and sensuous delights beyond the feeble imaginings of mortal men and women. Now Nevèrÿon's wildest desires and darkest dreams collide with the drear realities of our own blighted world as the gossamer boundaries between the real and the fantastic, truth and falsehood being to break down. And the world we know (or think we know) is revealed to us as if for the first time.

The Viking North Atlantic differs significantly from the popular image of violent raids and destruction characterizing the Viking Age in Northern Europe. In Iceland, Scandinavian seafarers discovered and settled a large uninhabited island. In order to survive and succeed, they adapted lifestyles and social strategies to a new environment. The result was a new society, the Icelandic Free State. This volume examines the Viking Age in Iceland through the discoveries and excavations of the Mosfell Archaeological Project (MAP) in Iceland's Mosfell Valley. Directed by Professor Jesse Byock, with Field Director Davide Zori, MAP brings together scholars and researchers from Iceland, Britain, Canada, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Germany, and the United States. The Project incorporates the disciplines of archaeology, history, saga studies, osteology, zoology, paleobotany, genetics, isotope studies, place names studies, environmental science, and historical architecture. The decade-long research of MAP has led to the discovery of an exceptionally well-preserved Viking chieftain's farmstead, including a longhouse, pagan cremation site, a conversion-era stave church, and a Christian graveyard. The research results presented here tell the story of how the Mosfell Valley developed from a ninth-century settlement of Norse seafarers into a powerful Icelandic chieftaincy of the Viking Age.

Sisterhood Feminisms And Power written by Obioma Nnaemeka and has been published by Africa Research and Publications this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1998 with Social Science categories.
This volume, which gathers prominent scholars, feminists, womanists, and creative writers from Africa and the African Diaspora, engages with candor and vigor issues and conflicts in feminism and black women studies - feminism and womanism debates, sisterhood and power struggles, research and documentation questions, elite and grassroots women relationship, urban and rural dichotomy, African and the African Diaspora relationship. Focusing on the pluralism of feminisms, these essays address the conflict between indigenous African feminisms and the radicalism of variants of Western feminism with their emphasis on sexuality and seeming oppositions to motherhood. They collectively argue that the African environment specifically should provide the context for any meaningful analysis of feminisms on the continent. The volume weaves theoretical questions, personal and collective engagements into a complex tapestry that spans Africa and the African Diaspora - from women organizing for change in South Africa and women's insurgency against colonialism in Nigeria to the problems of doing research on women in Uganda and building of a sisterhood in Memphis, Tennessee.

The important excavations at the Viking towns of Hedeby and Schleswig-Holstein revealed a rich body of finds of wrecks and parts of ships. This is a report on this material and also examines the role of the towns as ports and the role of trading in their development.
