The Great Isaiah Scroll lives up to its present-day name: with its over 7 meters, it preserves a complete text of one of the most extensive Hebrew Bible books. Leading experts in Dead Sea Scrolls studies take the reader on a tour from the Qumran settlement and the caves to the Scrolls and then focus on the Great Isaiah Scroll. They address the materiality of this scroll, such as the parchment and the ink, but also the jars. And they engage with the socio-historical context of the Scroll and its role in the reception of the Book of Isaiah. Several authors voice the history of finding the scroll.With contributions by George Brooke, Ruthanne Brooks, Claudia Colini, Sidnie White Crawford, Marta Feliciangeli, Marcello Fidanzio, Jorg Frey, Jutta Jorikanta, Jodi Magness, Noam Mizrahi, Dennis Mizzi, Hindy Najman, Grzegorz Nehring, Mladen Popovic, Ira Rabin, Rebekah Van Sant, Orit Shamir, Lawrence Schiffman, Naama Sukenik, Eibert Tigchelaar, and Emanuel Tov.

This collection explores the complexities of translation in the Ottoman Empire, examining the intersections of Arabic, Persian, and Turkish (elsine-i selse) that formed the linguistic backbone of Ottoman high culture and literature. The contributors investigate translation practices, cultural exchange, and power relations that shaped the Ottoman intellectual landscape, covering topics such as literary translations, lexicography, and the evolution of Ottoman Turkish as a lingua franca. Focusing on the fifteenth to the nineteenth centuries, the articles reveal the intricate web of linguistic, cultural, and historical forces that influenced translation decisions, authorship, and readership in the Ottoman Empire, shedding new light on the dynamics of cross-cultural communication and knowledge transfer in pre-modern Eurasia.

Este é um livro de enfrentamento direto, que desafia sem inibições as lacunas e, principalmente, o romantismo negligente com que tem sido tratada a história da América Latina. O autor se propõe a gar

The monograph concerns the analysis of mechanisms and processes of the evolution of the civil service corps in Poland after 1996. Additionally, it involves the evolution of the role of the state in the context of public administration and the significance of the dichotomous relationship between administration and politics. The research is interdisciplinary in nature and covers three areas: political, legal and regulatory as well as personal, cultural and historical aspects. It characterises the structures, organisation, legal nature, scope of rights and duties and principles like neutrality, impartiality and professionalism of the civil service.Extensive empirical data on the Polish civil service enriched the analysis and was used to illustrate the state of the organisation between 1996 and 2016. These data included appraisals, appointments, examinations, employment, etc. By observing the dynamics and variability of the Polish civil service corps, the study has the character of a functional analysis. The reflections culminate in recommendations and proposals for improving the current situation.

The historical memory of the principate is for obvious reasons dominated by the emperors, with one exception: Germanicus Caesar, who, though not a ruler, appears in the sources as if he had been one. Chosen by Augustus as his ultimate heir, the embodiment of the dynastic principle, yet never the emperor; put at the head of one third of the Roman army to reconquer Germania, but recalled before the tasks completion; the last to hold an imperium which made him almost a co-regent of the emperor, cut short by his sudden death he reflects like no one the transition of the principate from the Augustan phase to its mature form. Equally significant is the longevity of the memory of his person and the variety of ways in which it was expressed: the only non-emperor commemorated in the Feriale Duranum, he figures on coins struck long after the end of the Julio-Claudians and an edict of his, quoted in a legal text of the 3rd century, appears in the Digesta. To give justice to his memorability, our contributions approach him in the perspective of not only history, classical philology, art history/archaeology and numismatics, but also Egyptology and Roman law.

A unique Mamlk manuscript tells the story of a Damascene jurist. Ibn al-Zamlakns story revolves around a dramatic episode in the life of his master, the great judge Tj al-Dn al-Subk, who is the central figure (hero) of the tale. The composer justly names his document maqmah. In rhyming prose, it narrates several episodes. Transmitted by a narrator (or at least his voice), who distances himself from the event, it is a story about an escape from hardship of a hero who is supported by good characters and face some evil enemies. Yet, it is not a biography, but a dramatic plot that transmits a moral lesson. The maqmah illuminates the relations between the Mamlk ruling military aristocracy and the religious establishment, as well as the competition that divided the Damascene urban elite.

When did Burns Suppers start? Why is it celebrated all over the world? Who can join in the fun?Spanning the history of the phenomenon, from the year of its creation in 1801 to the present day, this book offers you everything you need to know about the Burns Supper, and the poet for whom it is held every year. From the origins of the custom to its modern day interpretations, from the rituals and traditions to the fun and fellowship, this first full-length study of the unique annual celebration of Scotlands national poet answers every question you can think of, along with every one you cant.

The traumatic failure of the European constitution seems to confirm doubts about a European public sphere that effectively interacts with the European Union and holds it to account. Is a European public sphere truly impossible? While many social scientists have claimed as much, their observations are often based on only a short period of recent history. This book provides the first long-term historical analysis of a political European public sphere and its development over time.Focusing on how British, French and German newspapers covered major European Council summits from The Hague in 1969 to Maastricht in 1991, it suggests that major milestones in European integration have long been accompanied by an increasingly controversial debate in the media. Moreover, the European public sphere has undergone a notable structural transformation. The growth of a more developed European political system since the 1970s has led to a more politicised, more differentiated, more inclusive European public sphere, an increase of transnational communication and changes in European identification.

The teaching of history in South African and Japanese schools has attracted sustained criticism for the alleged attempts to conceal the controversial aspects of their countries past and to inculcate ideologies favourable to the ruling regimes. This book is the first attempt to systematically compare the ways in which education bureaucracy in both nations dealt with opposition and critics in the period from ca. 1945 to 1995, when both countries were dominated by single-party governments for most of the fifty years. The author argues that both South African and Japanese education bureaucracy did not overtly express its intentions in the curriculum documents or in the textbooks, but found ways to enhance its authority through a range of often subtle measures. A total of eight themes in 60 officially approved Standard 6 South African and Japanese middle-school history textbooks have been selected to demonstrate the changes and continuity. This work hopes to contribute to the existing literature of comparative history by drawing lessons that would probably not have emerged from the study of either country by itself.The dissertation won a publication prize at Georg Eckert Institute for Textbook Research.

This first volume of the new series "Exploring Assur" presents the results of the fieldwork conducted at Assur, modern Qalat Sherqat, in 2023, with a focus on the New Town in the south of the settlement, and contains contributions by Mark Altaweel, Silvia Amicone, Katleen Deckers, Jorg Fassbinder, Holger Gzella, Sandra Hahn, Jean-Jacques Herr, Veronica Hinterhuber, F. Janoscha Kreppner, Inci Nurgul Ozdogru, Karen Radner, Jana Richter, Jens Rohde, Lena Ruider, Claudia Sarkady, Michaela Schauer, Annette Paetz gen. Schieck, Andrea Squitieri, Andreas Stele, and Marco Wolf. At Assur, the team is based in the excavation house first used by Walter Andrae from 1903-1914, and as this building is a protected monument within the UNESCO World Heritage site of Assur, a chapter is dedicated to its history. The early years come to life through the letters of Andrae and many photographs that he and his staff took of the building, reproduced courtesy of the Deutsche Orient-Gesellschaft zu Berlin. The fieldwork undertaken in 2023 included a program of magnetometer and electrical resistivity tomography prospecting and sediment coring in the New Town of Assur, whose results are presented together with a study of soil and sediment magnetism based on coring samples. The magnetogram of the New Town substantially deepens our knowledge of the settlements organisation in the first centuries AD when the city was part of the Parthian world. The excavations conducted in the southern part of the New Town, directly adjoining an area excavated by the Iraqi State Board of Antiquities and Heritage in 2002, brought to light a sizeable chamber tomb of 46 m2 from that period, with over a dozen skeletons. Moreover, the excavations yielded highly welcome new evidence for the Hellenistic occupation of Assur, namely Building A and two burials (Graves 3 and 4). The dead were placed underneath clay sarcophagi of an ovoid-elliptical shape. One bears an incised alphabetic inscription dated to the month Ab in the year 153 of the Seleucid era, that is July/August 158 BC. Brief as the text is, it provides precious insights into writing and dating practices at Assur after the end of local cuneiform writing and before the rise of the Eastern Mesopotamian scribal tradition that would eventually spread to Hatra and other areas. This burial also contained calcinated textile fragments of at least six different types of cloth. New data for the Assyrian occupation of Assur originates from some small-scale work undertaken on the edge of the Iraqi trench of 2002, from the partially excavated Building B and from Grave 5, which contained typical 7th century BC items including a bronze fibula and a glazed miniature vessel. A deep sounding dug down from this burial to the virgin soil yielded pottery types that are well known from sites in the Assyrian heartland and the Syrian Jazirah in the 13th century BC, including fragments of carinated bowls and beakers with elongated bodies and nipple bases, as well as a piece of charcoal with a radiocarbon dating range of 1506-1440 calBC (95.4% probability). This date corresponds well with the oldest mention of the construction of the wall and the gates of the New Town in the inscriptions of Puzur-Aur III, whose reign is conventionally dated to 1521-1498 BC. In total, the 2023 excavations produced 17 radiocarbon dating ranges, derived from the analysis of charcoal, seeds and human teeth; these are the very first 14C dates available from Assur.

Pocos vínculos han generado tanto revuelo en América Latina como el desplegado en los últimos decenios entre Cuba y Venezuela. Fruto de una visión similar de la realidad interna y sobre todo externa, estos dos paises o mejor dicho sus regimenes, han establecido unas estrechas relaciones que han generado reacciones de todo tipo en la escena internacional y dentro de los propios paises.La realidad es que la historia comun, o al menos cercana, de estos dos paises no comienza con la aproximacion de Hugo Chavez y del bolivarianismo a la Revolucion Cubana. Antes de la llegada de este militar golpista posteriormente electo por los venezolanos se producen una serie de choques, intercambios y enfrentamientos que condicionan una parte importante de la realidad caribeña y latinoamericana de la segunda mitad del siglo XX.En esta obra lo que se realiza es un repaso por esa historia larga que se desarrolla en un contexto que va desde la caida de las dictaduras de Fulgencio Batista y Marcos Perez Jimenez y que llega hasta el fallecimiento de Chavez, ya iniciado el siglo XXI. En la misma se observaran los intentos cubanos por incidir en la politica venezolana, los encontronazos ligados a la dinamica de Guerra Fria y a la cuestion guerrillera, los periodos de cierta calma entre ambos paises y el casi constante retorno de las tiranteces entre una Cuba que busca influir en Venezuela, y una Venezuela que intenta adaptarse a las nuevas realidades que van surgiendo con el paso del tiempo. Todo ello culminado por un analisis exhaustivo de la reciente, progresiva y creciente influencia de la experiencia liderada por Fidel Castro en una Venezuela cuyo liderazgo abraza sin tapujos el legado de la revolucion insular.

The period of the Julio-Claudian principate, with Romes transition from Republic to Empire and the rise of an imperial dynasty, marks a fascinating episode of historical change in Roman history. It saw the establishment and consolidation of a new political system that fundamentally altered Romes political landscape, its socio-economic structures, cultural identity, and its relations with the wider Mediterranean world.This volume brings together ten essays offering fresh perspectives on key aspects of this transformative era. Representing a wide range of disciplines, the authors shed light on the nature, fluidity, and plasticity of the early principate and the new realities it shaped. They discuss traditional terminology and periodization, the distinctive discourses and policies of the Julio-Claudian emperors, and the role of individuals and institutions in shaping the processes of transformation. They also analyze the development of traditional offices and the emergence of new structural features, as well as the ways in which contemporaries and later historians perceived this period of change and crafted the narratives of one-man rule.

Im Gegensatz zu landlaufigen Vorstellungen sind wissenschaftliche Wissensbestande haufig prekare Ressourcen. Sie konnen in bestimmten Situationen aus epistemischen Grunden schwach sein, weil Begrundungen oder empirische Evidenz problematisch sind. In anderen Situationen fehlt die kulturelle und soziale Anerkennung oder das fragliche Wissen bleibt schwach, weil es nicht gelingt, es praktisch nutzbar zu machen. Der Band versammelt Beitrage aus allen historischen Epochen und aus einem breiten Spektrum von Wissensgebieten - von der Medizin bis zur Klimatologie.

Die Krise der Moderne und der auf sie antwortende Modernismus markieren den Ubergang vom 19. zum 20. Jahrhundert. Im Ersten Weltkrieg und den sich an ihn anschlieenden Revolutionen manifestierten sie sich auf dramatische Weise. Dieses Buch geht den Beziehungen zwischen den neuen sozialen und politischen Entwurfen dieser Zeit - Planungsdenken, Neuer Mensch, totaler Staat - und den kunstlerisch-intellektuellen Avantgarden nach, vom italienischen Futurismus uber das Bauhaus bis hin zu deren sowjetischen Pendants. Im Zentrum steht dabei die Maschine, die zum Schlusselbegriff des Modernismus wurde.

This book contributes to the history of medieval Jewry in general, as a basis for a comparative study of the position of the Jews in Christian Europe in the Late Middle Ages. The eight articles written by leading experts on this topic pay special attention to the following issues: the measure of tolerance of the Mamluk rulers and the Muslim populace toward the Jews; Jews in government positions and as court physicians; conversion and attitudes toward converted Jews; the Sufi (mystical) nature of Jewish leadership and its relation to the Sufi Islamic discourse; professional, intellectual, and legal interactions between Jews and Muslims. In the end, the contributions help us to sharpen our understanding of Jewish life during the Middle Islamic Period in the Near East.

Employing survey archaeology, excavation, ethnographic study, and multinational archival work, the Shala Valley Project uncovered the many powerful, creative ways whereby the men and women of Shala shaped their world: through dynamic, world-systemic relationships with the powers that surrounded but never fully conquered them. The Shala Valley Project presents the highlanders, the malesore, in the full complexity of their lives, while also unveiling a new, deeper history for the region--a history that reaches back to an unexpected fortified Iron Age site. Light and Shadow tells many stories. Archaeologists, historians, and students of tribes, of empires, of imperial-indigenous relations, of blood feud, of kinship, of the built landscape, of world-systems theory and sustainability science, and more, will find much here to digest. The people of Shala, to which Light and Shadow is dedicated, may serve as an example in our modern age, one in which persistent, tribal peoples still fight for their survival, and seek to preserve some degree of independence from capitalist economies bent on their incorporation.

This volume, the second in a series of studies on the archaeology of the Titicaca Basin, serves as an excellent springboard for broader discussions of the roles of ritual, authority, coercion, and the intensification of resources and trade for the development of archaic states worldwide. Over the last hundred years, scholars have painstakingly pieced together fragments of the incredible cultural history of the Titicaca Basin, an area that encompasses over 50,000 km2, achieving a basic understanding of settlement patterns and chronology. While large-scale surveys will need to continue and areas will need to be revisited to further refine chronologies and knowledge of site-formation processes, the maturation of the field now allows archaeologists to fruitfully invest energy in single locations and specialized topics.
