Leprosy and identity in the Middle Ages
From England to the Mediterranean
by Elma Brenner, François-Olivier Touati
For the first time, this volume explores the identities of leprosy sufferers and other people affected by the disease in medieval Europe. The chapters, including contributions by leading voices such as Luke Demaitre, Carole Rawcliffe and Charlotte Roberts, challenge the view that people with leprosy were uniformly excluded and stigmatised. Instead, they reveal the complexity of responses to this disease and the fine line between segregation and integration. Ranging across disciplines, from history to bioarchaeology, Leprosy and identity in the Middle Ages encompasses post-medieval perspectives as well as the attitudes and responses of contemporaries. Subjects include hospital care, diet, sanctity, miraculous healing, diagnosis, iconography and public health regulation. This richly illustrated collection presents previously unpublished archival and material sources from England to the Mediterranean.

Warum ich Barthes liebe
by Philipp Rang, Alain Robbe-Grillet, Olivier Corpet
Fast dreißig Jahre lang bestand die Freundschaft zwischen Alain Robbe-Grillet und Roland Barthes. Sie begann 1953 mit einem Brief, in dem Barthes den Roman 'Die Radiergummis' als 'gelungen', weil 'avantgardistisch' charakterisierte. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt lobte der Kritiker Barthes das epische Theater Bertolt Brechts, kurz danach entzifferte er den französischen Alltag. Im Laufe der folgenden Jahrzehnte entwickelte sich eine enge Beziehung zwischen dem Romancier, der in dem Theoretiker den Schriftsteller lobte, und dem Semiologen, der im Romanautor den praktizierenden Philosophen der 'écriture' schätzte. Die hier zum ersten Mal publizierten schriftlichen und mündlichen Stellungnahmen von Alain Robbe-Grillet zu Roland Barthes zeigen prototypisch das Spannungsfeld zwischen der Lust am Text und der Lust am Spiel mit der Fiktion, in dem sich die französische Literatur in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts entwickelte.

Forest Biodiversity
Lessons from History for Conservation
by Edited by Olivier Honnay, Kris Verheyen, Beatrijs Bossuyt, Martin Hermy
This book focuses on the diverse impact of forest history in general, and of forest continuity, fragmentation and past management in particular, on the diversity and distribution of species. The implications for the conservation of biodiversity in forests are also addressed. Chapters have been developed from papers presented at a conference held in Leuven in January 2003. The emphasis is on temperate forests in Europe and North America, but the information may also be applicable to other regions or biomes. The book will be of significant interest to researchers working within the areas of forestry, ecology, conservation and environmental history.
