Male domination, female revolt : race, class, and gender in Kuwaiti women's fiction /
:
This book investigates various forms of women's resistance to male domination, as represented in Kuwaiti women's fiction. Drawing on Marxist-feminist literary theory, it closely analyses selected texts (published between 1953 and 2000), which reflect the effects of patriarchal culture and tradition on race, class, and gender relations in Kuwait and the Arabian Gulf region in general. It argues that the selected texts portray the pre-oil generations of Kuwaiti/Arabian Gulf women-born before or in the first half of the twentieth century-as resistant and/or revolutionary figures, contrary to the common notion of their stereotypical passivity and submissiveness. This book demonstrates how Kuwaiti women writers have used literature to work for, and contribute to, social change.

Intertextualität als Konstruktionsprinzip : Transformationen des Kriminalromans und des romantischen Romans bei Peter Handke und Botho Strauß /
:
Die ironisch-spielerische Neuverwendung von populären Gattungen und tradierten Darstellungsweisen stellt ein bemerkenswertes Phänomen heutiger Literatur dar. Die vorliegende Arbeit analysiert diese Form von Intertextualität in Prosawerken von Peter Handke und Botho Strauß und führt damit differente Spielarten solcher Gattungs-Transformation vor. Beide Autoren - die hier erstmals unter diesem erzähltechnischen Aspekt zusammengebracht werden - verwenden zur Konstruktion ihrer Texte 'vorgefertigte' Erzählmodelle: den Kriminalroman und den romantischen Roman. Die Untersuchung zeigt, wie Handke und Strauß deren Bauelemente neuartig einsetzen und so innovative Erzählformen schaffen. Wie in Handkes Krimi-Transformationen die Rätsel unaufgeklärt bleiben und sich das 'looking for clues' mit der Thematik von Zeichendeutung verbindet, wird in den Analysen dargelegt. In Der Hausierer, Die Angst des Tormanns beim Elfmeter und Der kurze Brief zum langen Abschied zeigt sich dabei eine Entwicklungslinie. Darüber hinaus stellt sich Die Stunde der wahren Empfindung durch den Befund einer Transgression des Krimi-Modells als Scharnierwerk im Oeuvre dar. Die Erarbeitung der vielfältigen Romantik-Bezüge in Strauß' Der junge Mann enthüllt, wie die prätextuellen Themen und Motive mit ironischer Distanz verwendet werden. Romantische Reflexionsstrukturen werden radikalisiert und in andere Funktionszusammenhänge gestellt. Abschließend werden die nachgewiesenen intertextuellen Konstruktionsprinzipien im Kontext postmoderner Literatur betrachtet.

Eusebius von Caesarea: Contra Hieroclem : Einleitung, Übersetzung und Kommentar /
:
Wer war Apollonius von Tyana? In der Antike rankten sich viele Legenden um diesen Mann. War er ein großer pythagoräischer Weiser oder doch ein Scharlatan? Eusebius von Caesarea will dieser Frage auf den Grund gehen. Angestachelt durch die Schrift "Philalethes" des römischen Beamten Sossianus Hierocles widmet er sich einer Untersuchung dieser umstrittenen Gestalt. Hierocles sah in Apollonius einen besseren Christus. Eusebius aber hält dem entgegen, dass Schriftsteller wie Hierocles einen Mythos um den Tyanäer erschaffen hätten, der der historischen Person nicht gerecht wird. Gemeinsame Grundlage der Diskussion ist dabei die "Vita Apollonii" des Flavius Philostratus. Diese Arbeit bietet erstmals die deutsche Komplettübersetzung von "Contra Hieroclem", angereichert durch eine Einleitung und einen ausführlichen Kommentar.

Kaiphas : der Hohepriester jenes Jahres : Geschichte und Deutung /
:
The high priest Caiaphas is one of the important figures in biblical history who received little attention or sympathy in the judgement of posterity. Since the time of the old church the highest representative of the Jewish society in the time of Jesus was assessed as a wicked enemy of Jesus and the leading apostles in Jerusalem. This image obscures the religious and political efficiency of a man, who worked with great success in his office for a long period of eighteen years. What do we know about the historical Caiaphas? And what is the image of this man in the New Testament and afterwards? The present study tries to answer these questions in view of the history, the exegesis and the reception history. Der Hohepriester Kaiphas gehört zu den bedeutenden Figuren der biblischen Geschichte, denen im Urteil der Nachwelt eine geringe Aufmerksamkeit oder Sympathie entgegengebracht wurde. Seit der alten Kirche wurde der höchste Repräsentant des jüdischen Tempelstaates zur Zeit Jesu als bösartiger Feind Jesu und der führenden Apostel in Jerusalem betrachtet. Dieses Bild verdeckt die religiösen und politischen Leistungen eines Mannes, der achtzehn Jahre lang mit Erfolg amtiert hat. Was wissen wir über den historischen Kaiphas? Und welches Bild hat sich von ihm im Neuen Testament und in der Zeit danach ausgeprägt? Die vorliegende Studie versucht, diese Fragen historisch, exegetisch und wirkungsgeschichtlich zu beantworten.

Ancient concepts of the Hippocratic : papers presented at the XIIIth International Hippocrates Colloquium, Austin, Texas, August 2008 /
:
In Ancient Concepts of the Hippocratic , Lesley Dean-Jones and Ralph Rosen have gathered 19 international authorities in ancient medicine to identify commonalities among the treatises of the Hippocratic Corpus which led scholars of antiquity to group them under the single name of Hippocrates. Most recent scholarship has drawn attention to the divergences between individual treatises and groups of treatises, emphasizing the agonistic facet of the ancient medical profession. In contrast, in this volume contributors look to find points of agreement between the writings that go beyond claims of rationality. Topics considered include ontological claims about the discipline of medicine itself, the view of the patient as a perceiving unity, theories on the function of glands and the importance of regimen.

The Pneumatological Imagination : A Theological Concert in Honor of Amos Yong /
:
This collection is one of the most comprehensive elaborations of "the pneumatological imagination"-a disposition to God and the world shaped by the doctrine of the Holy Spirit. Scholars in theology, biblical studies, history, and theological education interact with, build on, and critically evaluate this highly important hermeneutical principal in conversation with the theology of Amos Yong and in its own right. The contributors represent several different cultural and ethnic contexts, Church traditions, and kinds of institutions of higher education. They will guide you from beginning understandings of the pneumatological imagination to sophisticated deployments of it through a concert in honor of their colleague and friend.

Processes of cultural change and integration in the Roman world /
:
Processes of Cultural Change and Integration in the Roman World is a collection of studies on the interaction between Rome and the peoples that became part of its Empire between c. 300 BC and AD 300. The book focuses on the mechanisms by which interaction between Rome and its subjects occurred, e.g. the settlements of colonies by the Romans, army service, economic and cultural interaction. In many cases Rome exploited the economic resources of the conquered territories without allowing the local inhabitants any legal autonomy. However, they usually maintained a great deal of cultural freedom of expression. Those local inhabitants who chose to engage with Rome, its economy and culture, could rise to great heights in the administration of the Empire.
:
This volume is the result of a conference held at the University of Nottingham in July 2013, which focused on processes of integration in the Roman world. This meeting was a follow-up to an earlier conference, held at Manchester in 2010, which looked at processes of integration in the Roman Republic (see LCCN 2012007861). Both conferences started from the idea that, despite the amount of recent scholarship on integration in the ancient world and the impact these had on formation of identities, there are still aspects of these issues that are not fully understood. :
