Weinel H: Jesus im Neunzehnten
Jahrhundert

Jesus im Neunzehnten Jahrhundert

Wem gehört das All und was bedeutet das für uns?Was passiert, wenn Satellitennetze ausfallen? Nicht nur Rettungswagen finden ihre Ziele nicht mehr, ganze Navigationssysteme werden blind. Der Weltraum ist zu einer neuen, geopolitischen Arena geworden, in der über die aktuelle Kontrolle unserer Infrastruktur ebenso entschieden wird wie über den Ausgang von Kriegen und die zukünftige Ressourcengewinnung außerhalb der Erde. Sowohl auf dem Mond als auch in erdnahen Asteroiden werden unermessliche Rohstoffvorkommen vermutet. Im Wettstreit zwischen den USA und China spielen zunehmend auch Privatunternehmen eine entscheidende Rolle, die zugleich eigene ökonomische Interessen verfolgen. Allen voran Elon Musks SpaceX, dessen männlich-kapitalistische Zukunftsvision das All maßgeblich prägt. Ganz in der Tradition der Kolonialisten entscheiden die ersten Positionen und technischen Fähigkeiten über die zukünftigen Machtverhältnisse - auch auf der Erde. Ein bedeutender Teil des Anstiegs der weltweiten Rüstungsausgaben wird ebenfalls in diesem Bereich investiert. Dieses an der Schnittstelle zwischen Wirtschaft und Politik angesiedelte Sachbuch beleuchtet ein bislang massiv unterschätztes Thema, das uns alle angeht.

From political treason and scandalous murders to high-stakes legal debates, Birkenhead provides a masterclass in legal analysis, bringing a lawyer's keen eye to the drama of the courtroom.The collection examines trials ranging from the era of Mary, Queen of Scots, to notable legal battles of the early 20th century. Each chapter offers a narrative account of the events leading up to the trial, the key figures involved, and the legal strategies employed by both the prosecution and the defense. Birkenhead's writing style combines historical rigor with a storytelling flair, making complex legal concepts accessible to a general audience. This volume serves as both a historical record and a reflection on the evolution of the legal system, highlighting the enduring human elements of ambition, betrayal, and the quest for truth.

Famous Trials of History

Wien im Barock - das bedeutete immerwährendes Schauspiel. Die Stadt gab die Bühne, ihre Einwohner die Statisten, Adel und Kaiserhof die Hauptrollen.
Wie im Blick durch ein Kaleidoskop, durch Spiegelung und immer neue Zusammensetzung der Glassteinchen - der Begebenheiten, Anekdoten und Fakten aus dem Leben vieler Frauen, komprimiert in drei Protagonistinnen, wechseln die Bilder der Stadt, die Bilder der Lebenswelten von Frauen im barocken Wien.

Das Leben ist ein Schauspiel vor Gott

Kein Deutscher kennt die Lage besser als erSeit Beginn der russischen Invasion der Ukraine reiste Ibrahim Naber immer wieder bis an die vordersten Linien des Krieges. Kein anderer Reporter hat so nah und über einen so langen Zeitraum vom Leben und Sterben an der Front berichtet - aber auch von den großen Konflikten im Hinterland, von der Mobilisierung und Korruption bis zu den Machtkämpfen in Kiew. 
Naber begleitete Soldaten bei der Verteidigung Bachmuts, und er war dabei, als die ukrainische Armee den Vorstoß in die russische Grenzregion Kursk wagte. Er erlebte, wie die Gegenoffensive 2023 krachend scheiterte und Tausende Ukrainer starben. Er begleitete etliche Frontsoldaten, die heute nicht mehr leben, und wurde selbst Opfer eines russischen Drohnenangriffs. Ibrahim Naber verbindet die großen Linien dieses Krieges, blickt hinter die PR-Fassaden und schreibt, was er bis jetzt nicht schreiben durfte oder konnte.Putin hat seine Politik, seine Wirtschaft und die russische Gesellschaft auf Krieg ausgerichtet. Ihm geht es um große geopolitische Machtverschiebungen. Das muss auch im Kontext der immer stärkeren chinesisch-russischen Allianz gesehen werden. Egal, wann und wie es zum Waffenstillstand in der Ukraine kommt, bedeutet dies für Deutschland und Europa noch keinen anhaltenden Frieden. Der Angriff auf die Ukraine ist der Beginn einer langen Zerreißprobe.

'An exhilarating exploration of how we've been touched by the cosmos across human history' LEWIS DARTNELL 'Combines scientific expertise with vivid storytelling and a childlike wonder that shines on every page' TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT What draws us to the night sky and how can we make sense of all that lies there? In this unique synthesis of science and culture, former astrophysicist and writer Joanne Baker charts the global history of humanity's relationship with the cosmos. Starting with the nearby Moon before venturing through the solar system to the stars and beyond, she unveils a rich mosaic of stories and research that illuminate the significance of celestial bodies in our everyday lives. It is a history that transcends borders and cultural traditions, taking us from Mesopotamian moon worship to the science fiction of H. G. Wells and the discovery of black holes. Driven by a personal quest to understand the universe as more than just an abstract mathematical realm, Baker also includes her own sparkling first-hand experiences - from watching a total solar eclipse in Idaho to visiting an ancient observatory in Samarkand. Starwatchers invites readers on an extraordinary journey through space that interrogates the boundaries of our earthly existence and encourages us to reflect on how we project meaning onto the skies.

For thousands of years, humans have looked to the sky to make sense of the world. Observations of the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars shaped calendars, navigation, and systems of belief across many cultures, long before astronomy became a formal discipline. This book uses infographics and maps to trace the global history of the sky, examining how societies developed the concepts and methods that allowed humanity to interpret the cosmos. It follows early astronomical traditions in Babylon, China, and Polynesia; the emergence of new ideas in classical Greece; the scientific advances that transformed astronomy during the Enlightenment; and the modern age, in which humans have ventured from Earth to the Moon and beyond, sending probes through the solar system and signals into deep space.Designed for astute skywatchers and curious newcomers alike, these fact-packed pages reveal how today's science rests on centuries of observation, argument, and a thirst for adventure--and answers a fascinating question: How do we know what we know about the universe?

Routledge Explorations in Economic History

During the second half of the 19th century, a new global market for wheat came to the fore. Ever since, scarce and perishable food has been transformed into a modern global commodity, millions of tons of which is sold, bought, and transported across the oceans, providing the "daily bread" for a fast-growing world population.This book explores the historical origin of the global wheat market, offering an actor-centred view of the history of this new global commodity. The contributions to this volume demonstrate that the development of the global wheat trade through the late 19th and early 20th centuries has not only impacted the world food regime, it also led to the dissemination of new economic institutions. Countless technological innovations, such as elevators or telegraphic lines, have paved the way to the creation of new financial tools for trade, such as futures and grain exchanges, which transformed the market. The book also examines new global actors, such as Cargill, Louis-Dreyfus, or Bunge y Born, who took advantage of the new opportunities provided by the interlinked and globalized world grain trade. For the first time in history, the price of a single commodity which was crucial for human life ended up being decided in the areas of production by the producers and started to be fixed further afield, in specific and anonymous trading places.The book will be of great interest to historians of economics, business, trade, agriculture, globalization, and commodities.

Video Games and the Humanities

The witch has always been an object of fantasy; an adaptable symbol for the expression of society's deepest anxieties and dreams. In the magical worlds of medieval-inspired fantasy role-play games, stories of witchcraft (and its persecution) uniquely blend the history, fantasy, and fairy-tale of the witch tradition with video game conventions and cultures. The witch operates as a familiar Other that is simultaneously both real and fantastical.
 

 This book explores how the long tradition of fantasising the witch has been adapted through the popular medium of video games. As the first study of witchcraft representation to examine games, this analysis focuses on the genre where the witch is most prolific - fantasy roleplay games - and on three key franchises: 
 The Elder Scrolls
 , 
 The Witcher
 , and 
 Dragon Age
 .
 

 Often seen as quintessentially medieval, the figure of the witch that we know today only coalesced at the end of the western Middle Ages, thriving throughout the Early Modern period alongside movements like the scientific revolutions. The ubiquity of the witch in medieval-inspired fantasy thus reveals less about history and more about our modern desire to relegate the perceived superstition and barbarity surrounding the witch to a comfortably distant past, even while reenacting it on our screens.
