Historische Persönlichkeiten (Graphic Novels)

Elisabeth Tudor, Tochter des englischen Königs Heinrich VIII., bestieg 1558 den Thron eines politisch wie konfessionell zerissenen Landes. Trotzdem gelang es ihr, durch kluges und entschlossenes Handeln ihre Herrschaft zu festigen und das Königreich zu stabilisieren, indem sie Intrigen im Inneren, etwa ihrer Nichte Maria Stuart, ebenso abwehrte wie Angriffe von außen, vor allem die der spanischen Armada, und überdies die anglikanische Kirche endgültig vom Katholizismus löste. Unter ihrer Führung erlebte England ein goldenes Zeitalter, schickte sich an, zur Seemacht aufzusteigen, und das elisabethanische Theater, repräsentiert durch Autoren wie Shakespeare und Christopher Marlowe, besitzt Weltgeltung bis heute. Sie verstand es, sich als Frau in einer absoluten Männerwelt zu behaupten. Ein Preis dafür war möglicherweise, dass sie unverheiratet blieb und als die 'Jungfräuliche Königin' in die Geschichte einging.Napoleon Bonaparte, Katharina von Medici, John F. Kennedy, Dschingis Khan, Martin Luther... Die Lebensgeschichten der großen Persönlichkeiten der Weltgeschichte sind faszinierend und helfen uns, ihre jeweiligen Epochen zu verstehen. Wer waren die Menschen hinter den Mythen? Was waren ihre Erfolge, was ihre Misserfolge? Warum erinnert sich die Geschichte ausgerechnet an sie? In dieser Konzeptserie arbeiten profilierte Szenaristen mit Historikern zusammen, um spannende und lehrreiche Comic-Biografien zu kreieren. Jeder Band betrachtet die wichtigsten Stationen im Leben einer berühmten Persönlichkeit und wird durch einen informativen historischen Anhang ergänzt.

A vivid history of how Protestantism was spread across the globe, from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century &nbsp; "Mr. Ryrie has produced the rare book that deserves attention from both believers and skeptics."-D.G. Hart, Wall Street Journal &nbsp; Protestantism revolutionised early modern Europe. Radical theologians transformed the lives of thousands across the continent, irrevocably changing politics and society. But what about beyond Europe's borders? Was global Christianity just a Catholic endeavour? &nbsp; Alec Ryrie explores the untold history of how Protestants tried to spread their religion abroad, from Lapland to Chile and Barbados to Taiwan. At the story's heart are the non-Christian people whom Protestants met more often than any others during this period: those they had enslaved in the Americas, Africa, and eastern Asia. We see how Protestants dealt with, or evaded, the moral failure of the slave trade, and how their missionary efforts were disappointments at best, utter fiascos at worst. &nbsp; Their world Reformation, its failures, and its consequences for both good and ill, has largely been forgotten. This fascinating history makes the case for why it is worth remembering.

Economics and the Good Society

The Road to Freedom

From Pulitzer Prize finalist Steven Nadler, a fascinating historical and philosophical narrative that unravels the mystery of whether Spinoza was an atheist In 1656, a young Amsterdam merchant was excommunicated by his Portuguese-Jewish community in the harshest terms it had ever used. Baruch Spinoza was accused of unspecified “horrifying heresies,” but the precise reasons for his expulsion remain a mystery. When he published his Theological-Political Treatise in 1670, which was condemned as “the most atheistic book ever written,” he began to reveal to the world what his heresies may have been. Yet ever since the eighteenth century, most readers and scholars have assumed that Spinoza was a pantheist—even a “God-intoxicated man,” as the poet Novalis put it. After all, how could a person whose books are suffused with talk of God be an atheist? In Spinoza, Atheist, Steven Nadler, one of the world’s leading authorities on the philosopher, aims to settle the question and show that that’s exactly what he was. Nadler makes a powerful case that there is no real divinity for Spinoza. God is Nature, and isn’t an object of worshipful awe or religious reverence but can only be understood through philosophy and science. There is nothing supernatural—no mystery, ineffability, or sublimity. Spinoza does speak of “blessedness” and “salvation,” but these, too, are to be understood in natural and rational terms, as the peace of mind and happiness that come from understanding ourselves and the world. Whether Spinoza believed in God is a fascinating and enduring controversy. Spinoza, Atheist promises to transform our understanding of his views and to make clear just how radical a thinker he was and remains.

Spinoza, Atheist

This book uncovers the dynamics behind the transformation of an industry threatened by disruptive innovation. In contrast to existing research that focuses on the disruptive aspects of innovation, this book is unique in the following two aspects: It focuses on incumbent firms whose position would be undermined by new entrants; and it captures the process and causal link of the entire change of an industry as a synthesized result of multiple entities’ action. To reveal the nature of the dynamism of the industry's self-renewal, which cannot be fully captured by simplistic models, the book makes full use of historical process analysis, drawing on a variety of sources and in-depth interviews.Through this analysis, the reader can understand the threats of innovation that the Japanese photographic printing industry faced and how it responded to those threats and paved the way for its survival. Hints are provided for companies and their employees to think deeply about how they should deal with innovation — a double-edged sword that can bring success, but one that also may be feared because it can kill the business of those companies.

Timothy Keller, Updated and Expanded Edition

Atelier: Ethnographic Inquiry in the Twenty-First Century

In this exquisitely crafted ethnography, Charline Kopf examines how and why railway workers in Senegal and Mali care for a suspended railway. Trains rarely run, yet men continue to attend to the everyday practices that keep the railway alive as a social and political space: they sweep floors, repair wagons, and gather to await the arrival of a new train that might never come. The railway has become an afterplace--a worksite in a post-labor context where infrastructure, no longer fully functional, still organizes memory, politics, and collective life. Generations meet here with different temporal horizons: older workers recall futures once promised through stable employment and national ambition, while younger, precariously employed men confront futures never secured. These tensions raise urgent questions about what remains when work recedes along with the possibilities it once carried. Tracing connections and fractures across Senegal and Mali, the book offers a new lens on the afterlives of transnational infrastructure in Africa and beyond.

Don't Stop Praying

'Has the power to change the way you look at the world' Steven Bartlett'The heir to Oliver Sacks' David BaddielA FINANCIAL TIMESBEST BOOK OF 2024AN INDEPENDENTBOOK OF THE MONTHGluttony. Greed. Sloth. Pride. Envy. Lust. Anger.These are the seven deadly sins, the vices of humankind that define immorality, the roots of all evil in the world. Or so some believe.But do these sins really represent moral failings, or are they simply human functions that aid us? Are they just the result of how our bodies, psyches, and brains in particular, are wired?This new book by Dr Guy Leschziner, a professor of neurology and sleep medicine, explores the underlying nature of the seven deadly sins, their neuroscientific and psychological basis, their origin in our genes and crucially how certain medical disorders give rise to them.Drawing on his clinical practice, we meet individuals whose physical and psychological conditions have given rise to these sins, where brain injury or other experiences have sparked 'immoral' actions. He explores how illness can simply expose what lies within us and investigates how the origins of these traits lie in evolutionary imperatives to preserve the wellbeing of the tribe. Perhaps, he suggests, these character traits are less of a moral question and more biological, which raises fundamental issues of responsibility and blame in the face of 'sin'.Combining cutting-edge science placed in the context of real-life experience with patients, the book reexamines where the boundaries between normal human nature, pathology and sin are drawn. And, most importantly, whether these hard-wired traits truly represent sin, or simply the intensity of our intrinsic desire to survive and thrive.

Studies in Penal Theory and Ethics

What are reasons? What are duties? What are values? This book presents a fresh account of these concepts and the interplay between them. It defends a modest notion of a reason. It opens space for a notion of a duty that is fundamental and irreducible to that of a reason. And it proposes that engagement with value can be assessed as good, and that good engagement often involves the development of correct beliefs and fitting emotions. The result brings to light the normative significance of cognitive and affective attitudes, and reshapes the relationship between practical and epistemic normativity. In this redrawing of the normative map, Rethinking Normativity engages with wide ranging resources, including Razian theory, care ethics, and accounts of pragmatic encroachment on knowledge.
