Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, eine silberne Taschenuhr, die 1888 von der Hamburger Sternwarte angekauft wurde, in ihren historischen Hintergrund einzuordnen. In diesem Zusammenhang geht es um die Dynamik von Leben und Arbeit vor und nach 1900, die präzise Zeitmessung notwendig machte. In Hamburg spielten die Sternwarte und die Seewarte hier eine wesentliche Rolle. Die dort benutzten Taschenuhren wurden zum Vorbild; wenn der Kunde über die entsprechenden Mittel verfügte, konnte er Vergleichbares im Handel erwerben und seinen Alltag strukturieren. Präzisionsuhren stehen damit für den Schritt in die Moderne. Ein wenig erforschtes Thema ist der Umgang mit diesen neuen Zeitstrukturen. Populärliterarische Quellen belegen, in welcher Hinsicht viele Menschen mit dem Leben nach der Uhr Probleme hatten. Exemplarische Beispiele werden zitiert und interpretiert. Diese Zusammenhänge zwischen exakter Zeitmessung und deren Einfluss auf Leben und Denken, gespiegelt in der Literatur um 1900, geben Einblick in wesentliche Aspekte des Umgangs mit der Zeit.

Measuring the World marks the debut of a glorious new talent on the international scene. Young Austrian writer Daniel Kehlmann’s brilliant comic novel revolves around the meeting of two colossal geniuses of the Enlightenment. Late in the eighteenth century, two young Germans set out to measure the world. One of them, the aristocratic naturalist Alexander von Humboldt, negotiates jungles, voyages down the Orinoco River, tastes poisons, climbs the highest mountain known to man, counts head lice, and explores and measures every cave and hill he comes across. The other, the reclusive and barely socialized mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, can prove that space is curved without leaving his home. Terrifyingly famous and wildly eccentric, these two polar opposites finally meet in Berlin in 1828, and are immediately embroiled in the turmoil of the post-Napolean world.

Jana Hensel was thirteen on November 9, 1989, the night the Berlin Wall fell. In all the euphoria over German reunification, no one stopped to think what it would mean for Jana and her generation of East Germans. These were the kids of the seventies, who had grown up in the shadow of Communism with all its hokey comforts: the Young Pioneer youth groups, the cheerful Communist propaganda, and the comforting knowledge that they lived in a Germany unblemished by an ugly Nazi past and a callous capitalist future. Suddenly everything was gone. East Germany disappeared, swallowed up by the West, and in its place was everything Jana and her friends had coveted for so long: designer clothes, pop CDs, Hollywood movies, supermarkets, magazines. They snapped up every possible Western product and mannerism. They changed the way they talked, the way they walked, what they read, where they went. They cut off from their parents. They took English lessons, and opened bank accounts. Fifteen years later, they all have the right haircuts and drive the right cars, but who are they? Where are they going? In After the Wall, Jana Hensel tells the story of her confused generation of East Germans, who were forced to abandon their past and feel their way through a foreign landscape to an uncertain future. Now as they look back, they wonder whether the oppressive, yet comforting life of their childhood wasn't so bad after all.

This publication is a substantial archive and a singular point of entry into thinking with and understanding Andrea Fraser's work and reception. The interview format provides intimate insight into Fraser's self-positioning as a central aspect of her practice. By presenting the artist's voice as mediated through interlocutors ranging from professional peers to popular media, 'Collected Interviews, 1990-2018' uniquely contextualizes Fraser's practice in the artistic, institutional, and discursive fields in which she intervenes. As Fraser is engaged, challenged, and understood from diverse perspectives, readers learn as much about her artistic commitments from the artist's humor and affect as from her incisive analyses. The collection spans three decades, from the early 1990s to the present, and is organized chronologically with minimal editing. The collection's unmediated format allows Fraser's key ideas and themes to attain deeper resonance through repetitions and subtle differentiations over multiple conversations.

An authoritative introduction to the fascinating topic of archaeoastronomy—ancient peoples' understanding and use of the skies. Ancient Astronomy: An Encyclopedia of Cosmologies and Myth draws on archaeological evidence and oral traditions to reveal how prehistoric humans perceived the skies and celestial phenomena. With over 200 entries, it offers a number of ways to approach ancient astronomy, from key examples and case studies worldwide (Stonehenge; Mexican and Egyptian pyramids; Chaco Canyon, New Mexico; the Nazca lines in Peru) to general themes (cosmologies, calendars, ancient ideas of space and time, origin myths), to fundamental concepts and methods (how the sky has changed over the centuries, how to survey a site), and to the field's most frequently asked questions (How did ancient peoples navigate the ocean using the stars? How does astrology relate to ancient astronomy? Can ancient sites be dated astronomically?) By revealing the astronomical significance of some of the world's most famous ancient landmarks and enduring myths and by showing how different themes and concepts are connected, Ancient Astronomy: An Encyclopedia of Cosmologies and Myth brings a unique authoritative perspective to an area too often left to speculation and sensationalism.
