December 2012Kunst und Erfahrung
Beiträge zu einer philosophischen Kontroverse
by Stefan Deines, Jasper Liptow, Martin Seel
Welche Rolle spielen Wahrnehmung und Erfahrung für unseren Umgang mit Kunst? Gibt es eine spezifisch ästhetische Erfahrung? Und wenn ja, wie lässt sie sich begrifflich bestimmen? Von Antworten auf diese Fragen hängt nicht nur das Schicksal vieler Theorien der Kunst ab, sondern letztlich das Schicksal der Ästhetik selbst, insofern sie mit dem Anspruch auftritt, als Theorie einer besonderen Form der Erfahrung Aufschluss über das Wesen der Kunst zu geben. Der Band versammelt prominente Autoren sowohl der »kontinentalen« als auch der »analytischen« Ästhetik, die den Zusammenhang von Kunst und Erfahrung aus systematischer Perspektive beleuchten, darunter Georg W. Bertram, Noël Carroll, Jerrold Levinson, Martin Seel, Eva Schürmann und James Shelley.

Ein Lesebuch mit Texten, Dokumenten und farbigen Abbildungen
by George Gordon Noël Lord Byron, Gert Ueding
Der Band versammelt nicht nur Texte aus Byrons Werk, in denen das Bildnis des modernen Künstlers als Lord Byron eindringlich zum Ausdruck kommt, darunter besonders Tagebücher und Briefe, sondern auch Zeugnisse, die den Mythos »des wunderbarsten zu eigner Qual geborenen Talents« (Goethe) dokumentieren, also die Kultgestalt Europas, zu der dieser Dichter sich selbst gemacht hat und die als »Byronismus« seine Wirkung bestimmt bis heute.

The ArtsOctober 2019The never-ending Brief Encounter
by Brian McFarlane
This is a book for all those who have been absorbed and moved by Brief Encounter in the seventy or so years since its first appearance. It explores the central relationship of the film, where two people who fall unexpectedly in love come to realise that there is more to life than self-gratification. Mores have undoubtedly changed, for better or worse, but that essential moral choice has never lost its power. While acknowledging this, the book goes further in an effort to account for the way the film has passed into the wider culture. People born decades after its first appearance are now adept at picking up references to it, whether a black-and-white scene in a much later film or a passing joke about a bald man in a barber's shop.

Business, Economics & LawOctober 2020The Elephant Tourism Business
by Eric Laws, Noel Scott, Xavier Font, John Koldowski
Elephant tourism is a growing attraction in many countries across Asia and Africa and is popular with tourists from many origins. As elephants are no longer used in the logging industry in Asia, elephant tourism has grown rapidly, providing the only viable way that elephants and their owners can generate income. Old logging camps were developed into sanctuaries for some elephants, but many other camps were established as entertainment centres, with various welfare issues resulting for the elephants and their mahouts. The profits from elephant tourism in Asia have encouraged African operators to follow a similar business model. This book draws attention to the need for a comprehensive and rigorous focus on local solutions to improve the welfare of captive elephants and tourists' experiences of elephant tourism, to the benefit of local communities by: Critically reviewing recent research into elephant tourism Providing contemporary analytical case studies of elephant tourism policy and practice Identifying future research priorities The Elephant Tourism Business will contribute to a better understanding of how elephant tourism is organised, regulated and promoted, both in tourist origin countries and in elephant areas. It identifies priorities for future research into elephant tourism and provides a unique, authoritative resource for researchers, elephant managers and administrators, and tourism managers in this developing area of international concern. The book will be of interest to academics and practitioners with backgrounds in conservation, environment, tourism and veterinary sciences.

Rural communitiesApril 2005Innovations in Rural Extension
Case Studies from Bangladesh
by Edited by Paul Van Mele, A Salahuddin, Noel P Magor
During the past five years, the PETRRA (Poverty Elimination Through Rice Research Assistance) project has explored the development of innovative extension mechanisms through a learning-by-doing process with multiple service providers. Partnerships linked government, non-government and private sectors as appropriate. Topics addressed by the project include seed production and distribution systems, crop and soil fertility management, postharvest technologies, mobile pumps, aromatic rice and integrated rice-duck farming. The methods used include women-led group extension, whole family approach, participatory video, Going Public and picture songs. This book examines these approaches to extension and assesses their potential for replicability and scaling-up. It includes four thematic sections with people-centred case studies and a conclusion with practical applications of the transaction cost theory.

Molecular biologyMarch 2009Insect Pathogens
Molecular Approaches and Techniques
by Edited by S. Patricia Stock, Itamar Glazer, Noel Boemare, John Vandenberg
Investigation of insect pathogens is vital to the understanding of biocontrol and insect management within an ecosystem. Faster and more accurate methods of identification and diagnosis have become possible with the implementation of molecular techniques. Advances in genomics and genetic engineering make this manual the most up to date handbook on insect pathogens, with the latest information on methods used to unravel the genomes of pathogens. The book is divided into four sections covering: Identification and Diagnostics, Evolutionary Relationships and Population Genetics, Genomics, and Genetic Engineering. It is essential reading for those studying and researching at the forefront of molecular science and biological management.
