Mental Health in Historical Perspective

This book explores the marginalisation of thousands of asylum patients who were removed from their home institutions in Scotland during the First World War to make way for soldiers. Examining what life was like for Scotland's mentally ill civilians from 1914-1934, the author explains why and how asylums were taken over by the War Office, and how this created a divide between civilians and soldiers, carved mostly by politicians and the media. The book sheds light on the painstaking process asylum doctors in Scotland went through to find homes for thousands of patients, and how they found ways to protect their health and wellbeing. Providing insights into the patient hierarchy within Scottish asylums, the author argues that soldiers were not the protected class of patient that politicians and the military tried to portray them as. Drawing from the words of Scotland’s asylum patients themselves, this important book highlights the voices of the mentally ill in Scotland during not only a tumultuous period for their nation, but for themselves.Jennifer Farquharson is an independent researcher specialising in early twentieth-century mental healthcare in Scotland, architectural history, and building conservation. She currently works in the heritage sector at Historic Environment Scotland, where she communicates specialist research to general audiences through books, online learning, exhibitions, films, and more. Jennifer was awarded her doctorate in history from Glasgow Caledonian University, in the UK, and is a member of the Society for the Social History of Medicine, the British Society for the History of Science, and an Associate Fellow of the Royal Historic Society.

Die Geschichte der Frauen, die zurückschlagen

Fighting Like a Woman

This is the first encyclopedia devoted exclusively to medieval women’s writing&nbsp;globally. Focusing on the thousand-year period between 500-1500, this comprehensive reference work addresses a long-standing gap in scholarship on women writers from this period. It challenges current understandings of the literary tradition of women by incorporating early writers and texts that remain marginal and by expanding definitions of textual composition to include more collaborative&nbsp;and contextual&nbsp;activities.&nbsp;This encyclopedia also presents women in context of the global Middle Ages.&nbsp;Entries extend beyond works written in England, Scotland, Ireland,&nbsp;and Wales to include works by women from Europe, Africa,&nbsp;and Asia. By locating medieval women’s writing within its cultural, social, religious,&nbsp;and political contexts,&nbsp;The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Medieval Women’s Writing&nbsp;in the Global Middle Ages&nbsp;will be an ideal entry point for students and researchers coming into the field, and a valuable resource for established scholars.

Philosophy and Sciences in the Christian Orient

The Cause of the foundation of schools, which has been written around 600 by the East Syriac author Barhadbeshabba, is practically unique in intellectual history by explaining the anthropological phenomenon of schools. The author, who was himself a teacher at the famous School of Nisibis in Upper Mesopotamia, describes the history of divine and human schools until his own lifetime by renarrating important parts of biblical history as forms of teachings, paying attention to the Greek philosophical tradition and the teachings of Persian Zoroastrianism. He introduces his work by a sketch of his own philosophical convictions regarding our knowledge of God, the necessity of logic and the status of our soul. Due to its diverse contents, the work finds since a long time the interest not only of specalists of Eastern Christianity, but also of ancient historians, of historians of philosophy and of researchers in the field of religion, esp. Coranic and Zorostrian Studies. A new critical edition of this important text is been for a long time a desideratum, because the first editor Addai Scher could not use all extant manuscripts. For this reason, the text is re-edited here with introduction, translation and notes, using four extant manuscripts as well as the documentation of three, last one’s given by Addai Scher in its 1907 edition. The introduction describes the manuscripts and their relationship as well as the circumstances of the text’s composition. Thus, this new edition will be an indispensable tool for anybody working in the field of intellectual history of the Near East immediately before the rise of Islam.

Sozial- und Kulturgeographie

Gesellschaften stehen heute vor komplexen ökologischen, technologischen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Herausforderungen. Dies macht nicht nur einen institutionellen Wandel erforderlich, sondern verweist auch auf die Notwendigkeit eines grundlegenden Wandels im Handeln der Akteure. Die Beiträger*innen gehen zwei zentralen Fragen nach: Welche Bedeutung haben kulturhistorische Repräsentationen von Raum und der Umgang mit ihnen für Gesellschaften, Institutionen, Politik und andere Akteure? Und was behindert den Prozess des zielgerichteten Handelns angesichts der bestehenden Herausforderungen?

Cities, Heritage and Transformation

This book is an in-depth and insightful exploration of the pivotal role Geographic Information Systems (GIS) play in understanding heritage changes and revitalizing urban identities amidst rapid urbanization and transformation. Geographic Information Systems for Urban Identity, Urban Morphology and Urban Transformation: Bridging the Gap between Urban Space and Heritage Transformation presents a comprehensive guide to how GIS technology can bridge the gap between urban development and heritage changes by preserving the unique values of the historic cities.&nbsp;Through meticulous research and best practices, the authors delve into the intricate ways in which GIS tools and techniques are used to map, analyze, and visualize urban spaces, cultural heritage (tangible and intangible), and other layers of the cities such as natural resources, or infrastructure network. The book highlights how GIS empowers a wide range of stakeholders, i.e. urban planners, architects, preservationists, and policymakers, to make informed decisions that balance the need for a sustainable development with the imperative to manage change of historic cities.The chapters are enriched with detailed explorations of urban transformation projects where GIS has been instrumental in ensuring that progress does not come at the cost of heritage. From mapping historical districts and assessing the historic urban fabric and the attributes that convey the heritage values and their condition to identifying areas for adaptive reuse, readers gain a profound understanding of how GIS acts as a guiding compass in urban development that respects the past while embracing the future.&nbsp;The relevance of "GIS for Urban Identity" is its interdisciplinary approach that brings together insights from geography, urban planning, architecture, cultural studies, and technology. The book is not just a technical manual, but a thoughtful discourse on how GIS fosters collaboration between stakeholders with diverse interests, such as community members, heritage organizations, and city officials. By showcasing successful examples of urban identity preservation from around the world, the authors inspire readers to adopt innovative approaches in their own endeavors.&nbsp;Furthermore, the book engages in critical discussions about the challenges, ethical considerations, and potential limitations of using GIS in urban identity continuity. It prompts readers to reflect on the socio-cultural implications of urban transformation and how technology can serve as both a tool and a catalyst to manage change.&nbsp;"Geographic Information Systems for Urban Identity, Urban Morphology and Urban Transformation: Bridging the Gap between Urban Space and Heritage Transformation" is a must-read for urban planners, heritage advocates, GIS professionals, researchers, policy makers and practitioners who seek to navigate between development and heritage conservation. With its comprehensive insights, case studies, and thought-provoking analysis, this book serves as an invaluable resource for understanding how GIS technology can pave the way for sustainable, culturally enriched urban futures.&nbsp;
