Joseph and Aseneth: A Study in Manuscript Transmission (de Gruyter, 2025) expands a few verses from the book of Genesis into a novella-length work. It is increasingly used as a source for Judaism and Christianity at the turn of the Common Era. Scholarly attention has largely focused the work's provenance, the priority of a longer or shorter text version, and the implications for interpretation. But few have engaged with the work's manuscript witness and transmission. This study returns to the sources. It considers how the redaction and translation of Joseph and Aseneth affected its interpretation, and looks at the interests of the redactors and copyists. Its findings warn against placing too much weight on details that lack such an importance in the manuscript tradition. Important contributions made in this monograph include: a detailed study of the two earliest versions, the Syriac and Armenian translations; focus on the Greek manuscripts of the three longest families (f, Mc, a); analysis of four abridged versions (family d, E, Latin 1 and so-called "early modern Greek"); the first available synoptic edition of the Greek versions of the story, including the first edition of manuscript E.

Tax havens in offshore lands like Switzerland, the Cayman Islands and the Bahamas were once considered a rarity, the preserve of the super-rich. Today, they are big business available to the masses. Their goal? To avoid any form of accountability. Own nothing. Possess everything. Be answerable to no one. Where are these tax havens? What forms can they take? What future lies in store for them, and why should we care? An Anatomy of Tax Havens: Europe, the Caribbean and the United States of America (de Gruyter, 2023) answers these questions, and more, in the first comparative study in one volume of European, Caribbean and United States tax havens. It examines their simple origin to the extreme forms some take today, delving into the murky subculture that has deliberately made them impenetrably obscure. Uniquely, it combines detailed technical expertise (regulatory regimes, financial crime, legal and equitable structuring) with an analysis of their impact on domestic and global political, economic, environmental and social concerns. An Anatomy of Tax Havens is a fascinating, informative read for a broad readership; from legal, accountancy and tax practitioners to compliance regulators, law enforcement agencies, and students and researchers interested in business studies, taxation, and crime. Paul R. Beckett is a Lawyer and Academic, specializing in company, commercial and trust law; banking and fund management; cryptocurrencies and the blockchain. He practices on the Isle of Man.

Deze aflevering is wederom relevant in verband met de NAVO-top. --In de laatste aflevering van deze serie onderzoeken we de machtspositie van Rutte, en daarmee die van Nederland in de Europese Unie. Terwijl nationale krachten in Europa groeien, vragen lidstaten steeds meer van de EU. Denk aan het gezamenlijk inkopen van vaccins, het beschermen van data van burgers tegen tech-giganten als Facebook, het vluchtelingenbeleid. Hoe speelt Rutte dit (machts)spel? En komt zijn verhaal voor de Nederlandse bühne overeen met zijn besluiten in Brussel? Hiervoor praten we met journalist en EU-expert Caroline de Gruyter. Het boek van Caroline de Gruyter heet ‘Beter wordt het niet’. Een briljant boek over de relatie tussen Oost- en West-Europa is ‘Falend licht’ van Ivan Krastev en Stephen Holmes.

Pensiamo sempre che cadere in una setta sia qualcosa che succede agli altri. A chi è fragile, suggestionabile, isolato. Mai a noi.Ma la verità è più inquietante: le nuove forme di manipolazione si mimetizzano tra corsi di crescita personale, percorsi spirituali, new age, comunità online e promesse di grande realizzazione. Non servono mantelli o messe nere: basta un link, una live, un social... e un gruppo che, da disfunzionale, diventa abusivo.In questa puntata, esploriamo l'evoluzione delle sette dal modello classico alle sette 3.0, analizzando meccanismi psicologici, tecniche di reclutamento e testimonianze reali.Perché nessuno è immune, e riconoscere i segnali è il primo passo per proteggersi.____________________Link utiliCesap (Centro Studi Abusi Psicologici) - nel quale sono disponibili due tesi di laurea relative all'argomentoLa Pulce nell'Orecchio____________________BibliografiaFrankfurter, D.

Het kabinet is demissionair en nieuw beleid voor de woningmarkt laat naar alle verwachting nog minimaal een jaar op zich wachten. Maar die tijd is er eigenlijk niet. Deze aflevering in het kort: ☑️ Drie experts bouwen aan één woningmarktplan ☑️ Wat helpt nou écht tegen de vastgelopen bouwmachine? ☑️ Eén vastgoedfonds bezit hele retailwijk in Londen Over ruim vier maanden gaat Nederland naar de stembus. De komende weken gaan partijen verder schaven aan hun oplossing voor de wooncrisis. En wij helpen ze een handje. Want hoe zou het ultieme woningmarkt-renovatieplan er ongeveer uit moeten zien? We geven dat idee gestalte met drie columnisten van dit programma. Het zijn Maarten Feilzer, als stand-in voor Maarten de Gruyter, Madeline Buijs van Colliers Nederland en Matthijs Koorevaar, universitair docent Finance aan Erasmus School of Economics in Rotterdam. Deze uitzending komt vanaf de Provada in Amsterdam, op uitnodiging van onze partner Mogelijk. Luister ook | Huib Boissevain: een uitgesproken vastgoedman Alle belangrijke hoofdpijndossiers passeren de revu. Van de middenhuurregeling tot onrendabele bouwprojecten, stikstof en het onzekere klimaat voor vastgoedbelegers in binnen- en buitenland. Ook het feit dat steeds meer gemeenten aanvullende eisen stellen aan woningbouwprojecten, komt aan bod. Dit gaat onder meer om strengere duurzaamheidsnormen, meer sociale huur dan de landelijke norm, extra parkeerplekken of verplicht ruimte voor zorgwoningen. Projectontwikkelaars zien hierdoor hun plannen complexer en kostbaarder worden en dat zorgt geregeld voor vertraging of zelfs afstel. Luister ook | De opknapbeurt van een winkelstraat in verval Maarten Feilzer vertelt over zijn tripje naar Londen, van afgelopen weekend. Daar raakte hij onder de indruk van wat Shaftesbury Capital doet in de beroemde wijk Soho. Dit vastgoedfonds bezit vrijwel een hele retailwijk en dat heeft volgens hem voor veel bloei gezorgd. In Nederland komen we dit nog niet tegen. Ook noemt hij dat Ping Properties het Metropoolgebouw in Amsterdam heeft gekocht, buiten de markt om. Het multifunctionele gebouw, met een verhuurbaar vloeroppervlak van circa 14.500 vierkante meter, biedt een mix van kantoor-, hotel- en winkelruimtes.

Papyri Copticae Magicae: Coptic Magical Texts, Volume 1: Formularies (de Gruyter, 2023) offers an accessible repository of edited Coptic magical texts. The book is a careful and thorough edition and philological study of thirty-seven distinct Coptic manuscripts, covering a wide range of magical applications—from love spells, to curses, to exorcisms, and healing invocations. The volume makes available a rich set of evidence of everyday concerns of love, justice, strife, and health in late ancient Egypt to readers outside of the niche community of scholars of Coptic language. You will discover ancient ritual texts including instructions for healing bowels, a formula for sleep, a spell request for a good singing voice, and a love spell for attracting the attention of a crush in a one-sided romance. You will also find a curious assemblage of divine names and a list of material objects necessary for offerings that suggest need for ingredients like sweat of a bee, foam from the mouth of a horse, frog blood, incense, or different types of plant matter. For scholars interested in history of late ancient Egypt, history of Christianities, Manichaeism, Coptic language, esoterica and magic in late antiquity, material culture, or manuscripts this monograph will provide an important resource for the study and expansion of the vocabularies, grammars, and material practices of ancient rituals.  Korshi Dosoo is is currently co-Principal Investigator of the “Corpus of Coptic Magical Formularies (CoMaF)” project based at the Julius Maximilian University Würzburg. Dr. Lydia Bremer-McCollum teaches Coptic at the University of Notre Dame and religious studies at Spelman College. Learn more about your ad choices.

Een miljoen betaalbare woningen bouwen, de huren verlagen én beleggers weren van de woningmarkt. Dat zijn de speerpunten van het nieuwe woonplan van de SP: Wonen zonder winst.Deze aflevering in het kort:☑️ SP-fractievoorzitter Jimmy Dijk over het woonplan 'Wonen zonder winst'☑️ Hoe betaalbaar zijn die plannen eigenlijk en wie gaat ze betalen?☑️ Sociaal geograaf Floor Milikowski over bouwen in de buitenwijken van NederlandIn deze aflevering van Vastgoed Gezocht praten we vijftig minuten met SP-fractievoorzitter Jimmy Dijk. Zijn partij lanceerde eerder dit jaar een radicaal woonplan, waarbij de focus komt te liggen op de bouw van sociale huurwoningen. Hij legt uit waarom zijn partij vindt dat wonen geen verdienmodel mag zijn. Ook bespreken we met hem het verbod op verkoop van sociale huurwoningen en de wens om grondprijzen te reguleren. Maarten de Gruyter is kritisch op de plannen en legt de politicus dan ook het vuur aan de schenen.

Een miljoen betaalbare woningen bouwen, de huren verlagen én beleggers weren van de woningmarkt. Dat zijn de speerpunten van het nieuwe woonplan van de SP: Wonen zonder winst. Deze aflevering in het kort: ☑️ SP-fractievoorzitter Jimmy Dijk over het woonplan 'Wonen zonder winst' ☑️ Hoe betaalbaar zijn die plannen eigenlijk en wie gaat ze betalen? ☑️ Sociaal geograaf Floor Milikowski over bouwen in de buitenwijken van Nederland In deze aflevering van Vastgoed Gezocht praten we vijftig minuten met SP-fractievoorzitter Jimmy Dijk. Zijn partij lanceerde eerder dit jaar een radicaal woonplan, waarbij de focus komt te liggen op de bouw van sociale huurwoningen. Hij legt uit waarom zijn partij vindt dat wonen geen verdienmodel mag zijn. Ook bespreken we met hem het verbod op verkoop van sociale huurwoningen en de wens om grondprijzen te reguleren. Maarten de Gruyter is kritisch op de plannen en legt de politicus dan ook het vuur aan de schenen. Luister ook: als er weer een crisis komt | Opinie Maar hoe zit het eigenlijk met de financiële haalbaarheid van al die plannen? Volgens Dijk is het een kwestie van politieke keuzes durven maken. De staatsschuld mag, als het aan hem ligt, best iets oplopen. Daarnaast wil de SP fors snoeien in de hypotheekrenteaftrek, een regeling die volgens hem nu vooral hogere inkomens bevoordeelt. Het afbouwen daarvan levert volgens Dijk jaarlijks zo'n 5 tot 6 miljard euro op. Verder wil hij de leegstand strakker aanpakken, bijvoorbeeld door eigenaren te verplichten panden sneller in gebruik te nemen of te verhuren. "We kunnen het ons simpelweg niet permitteren dat panden in tijden van woningnood ongebruikt blijven staan," aldus Dijk. Luister ook: Ook woningcorporaties spelen voor sinterklaas | Opinie Volgens sociaal geograaf Floor Milikowski ligt de sleutel tot het oplossen van de woningnood in de ruime buitenwijken van Nederland. In haar boek Contouren van een nieuw land betoogt ze dat daar plek is voor honderdduizenden nieuwe huizen, mits we kiezen voor compacte, betaalbare huizen die dichter op elkaar staan. Dat is niet alleen goed voor de woningvoorraad, stelt ze, maar ook voor de samenleving als geheel. Door mensen dichter bij elkaar te laten wonen, groeit het onderlinge contact en wordt het sociale weefsel versterkt.

Grab some tissues and your inner rage because today we're getting the verdict in the trial of Jason and Damien.In part one of this series we told you about Stevie, Michael, Chris and the murders that would forever change West Memphis Arkansas, and in part two we covered the satanic panic that led to the arrests of Jason, Damien, and Jessie. In Part three we examined the months leading up to the trials. In part four, Jessie Misskelley was found guilty of the crimes in a separate trial. In part five we heard from the prosecution but today it's all about the defense.In part 6, Damien's defense calls witnesses to the stand (including Damien himself) while Jason's team opts to only call on one witness, a fiber specialist. We hear closing statements from the state and defense as well as clips from the trial, Paradise Lost & Damien's book. We end the episode with the verdict and what it means for Damien and Jason CW: child abuse, child death, self-harmSources: Jenkins, P (1992).

Grab your death metal albums and don't talk to the cops without a lawyer because today we're gaining a broader understanding of the satanic panic of the 80s and 90s and how it greatly impacted the case of the West Memphis ThreeIn part one of this series we told you about Stevie, Michael, Chris and the murders that would forever change West Memphis Arkansas. We told you things the way that they seemed, now it's time to get into things the way that they actually were.In this episode we try and gain a broader understanding of the "Satanic Panic" and it's origins (from preschools to memoirs to rock music) while examining how this same search for satan narrowed the murder investigation by the West Memphis Police Department in 1993We learn about the way polygraphs were used in the investigation and why they held so much weight for the police and some of the people who may have gotten off without much questioning. We also include passages from Damien's book Life After Death and the book Jason Baldwin helped write with Mara Leverit, Devil's Knot. We end this episode with a confession from Jesse Misskelley and the arrests of Damien Echols and Jason Baldwin.There's so much to unpack in this episode and this case!Sources:Jenkins, P (1992).

Grab your your old cassette tapes, and your deepest sense of injustice, because today we're getting a broader understanding of the 1993 West Memphis Murders and the three little boys who never made it home.On May 5th, 1993, three second graders- Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers left their homes in West Memphis, Arkansas for an ordinary bike ride. They were eight years old. They never came back.What happened that night would become one of the most infamous child murder cases in American history.In 1994, three teenagers- Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley would be convicted of those murders, in a trial driven by satanic panic, coerced confessions, and a complete collapse of justice.In 1996, HBO aired Paradise Lost and the world saw what had happened in that courtroom. Over the next twenty years, the West Memphis Three would fight for their freedom from behind bars. They'd get it eventually- kind of. But this case? It's not over.There's new evidence. There's new DNA. There's a chance to finally do what Arkansas never did: find out the truth.In part one of this series, we're not starting with suspects. We're starting with Stevie, Michael, and Chris-who they were, what they loved, and what was taken from them.Because before this became a media circus, before it became a cause, it was a tragedy.(originally released in May of 2023, full sources available in show notes)Sources:Jenkins, P (1992).

Quran Commentary and the Biblical Turn (de Gruyter, 2024) examines the exegetical relationship between the Quran and the Bible in Islamic intellectual history. As the two have been called "intertwined scriptures" due to the Quran's frequent invocation of biblical narratives and figures, a question is raised: what is the history of Muslims' exegetical engagement with the biblical text? Through a survey of 179 Quran commentaries, the book establishes itself with foundations in the longitudinal history of the Bible in Quranic exegesis. From that point, the book offers detailed case studies and historical contextualisation of the history of the use of the Biblical text in Quranic commentaries, which culminated in a “Biblical turn” in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. This Biblical Turn, which had global influences and impacts, did not only generate new Muslim views of the Bible but even new interpretations of the Quran itself. Quran Commentary and the Biblical Turn makes interventions in several fields, including Quranic Studies and Biblical reception studies, as well as sub-fields of Islamic Studies focusing on tafsir and Islam in modernity. The book was awarded the BRAIS–De Gruyter Prize in the Study of Islam and the Muslim World. Samuel Ross is an Associate Professor at Texas Christian University in Dallas, Texas, USA.

In mei viert Amsterdam een uniek muziekfestival. Wat past beter bij 750 Jaar Amsterdam dan de uitvoering van heel het werk van Gustav Mahler door de beroemdste orkesten, dirigenten en solisten uit heel de wereld? Mahler, de Weense componist van het 'Fin de Siècle' die Amsterdam als de tweede stad van zijn muziek beschouwde. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger praten met Thomas de Jonker, musicoloog van het Concertgebouw, over dit festival, Mahlers muziek, zijn leven in turbulente politieke tijden, in een periode van culturele bloei en over zijn unieke band met Nederland en het Concertgebouw.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door het Concertgebouw en met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show! Als vriend word je uitgenodigd om op zaterdag 17 mei met Jaap en PG in het Mahler Paviljoen op het Museumplein in Amsterdam te genieten van Mahlers Negende symfonie!Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend een mailtje naar adverteren@dagennacht.nl en wij zoeken contact.Op sommige podcast-apps kun je niet alles lezen. De complete tekst plus linkjes en een overzicht van al onze eerdere afleveringen vind je hier***Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) was de beroemdste musicus van zijn tijd. Nog voor hij 40 werd, had de stokoude keizer Frans Jozef hem benoemd tot chef van de Hofopera in Wenen. Dát was al zeer politiek, want in Oostenrijk-Hongarije hadden joden maar net volledige burgerrechten, dus deze benoeming op de top van de kunsten was een sensatie. Door die artistieke roem en komeetachtige carrière was Mahler doelwit van heel wat vuige kritieken. De jaren tussen 1890 en 1914 leken wel onbezorgd, feestelijk in cultuur en vele contacten, maar de gouden jaren na het Weens Congres van 1815 waren voorbij. Het Habsburgse Rijk wankelde, oorlogen langs de randen braken uit en donderwolken aan de horizon trokken samen.Mahlers werk klinkt daarom soms bijna profetisch. Zijn Wenen bloeide, maar in de krotten en stegen leefden sloebers als Adolf Hitler en Josip Broz Tito en ondergedoken Russen als Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotski en Jozef Stalin. De komende eeuw begon in de sloppen van deze stad.Gustav Mahler was inmiddels een wereldburger van de eerste golven van de globalisering. Hij werd chef van de Opera en de New York Philharmonic, dirigeerde van Ljubljana en Boston tot Rotterdam. Stoomschepen, treinen en zelfs de auto voerden hem over heel de wereld. Amsterdam werd zijn 'tweede stad'. In 1903, 1904, 1906 en 1909 kwam hij zijn eigen symfonieën dirigeren. Zo ontstond een unieke, organische relatie met de musici van het Concertgebouw en dirigent Willem Mengelberg. Samen schreven zij muziekgeschiedenis. Het belette de erg veeleisende 'divo' Mahler overigens niet gedurig te klagen over de regen, de kille wind en het lawaai van de havenstad. Na Mahlers dood in 1911 werd Amsterdam het cultureel centrum waar men hem bleef eren en spelen. In 1920 - meteen na de Vrede van Versailles - bracht de stad de kunstenaars van heel de wereld bijeen voor het eerste 'Mahler Feest'. Het vredesappel tijdens dat festival bewees nog eens hoezeer men politiek en menselijk snakte naar verzoening in een vreedzaam Europa. Dat ontstond pas na de jaren waarin Mahler door de Nazi's verboden was en hij in de vergetelheid leek te raken. Maar niet in Amsterdam en evenmin in New York. Dirigenten als Bernard Haitink en Leonard Bernstein zorgden voor een renaissance van Mahlers liederen en symfonieën. De nieuwe welvaart, de technologie van de elpee en de televisie én de filmkunst maakten Mahler een begrip voor velen. Hij werd de componist van een modern, verzoend Europa. In Amsterdam komt nu in 2025 in het festival de wereld bijeen. Hopelijk ook nu voor een moment en appèl tot vrede en verzoening. Toporkesten uit Chicago, Boedapest, Tokyo en Berlijn, jonge maestro's als Klaus Mäkelä en fameuze dirigenten als Kirill Petrenko komen Mahler dirigeren. ***Verder luisterenIn MAHLER!

Just weeks after October 7, 2023—the worst moment in Jewish history since the Holocaust—Pastor Jeff Durbin of Apologia Studios released a video discussing the massacre.

De rode draad door alle wilde manoeuvres van Donald Trump is zijn ambitie om de politieke verhoudingen op wereldschaal fundamenteel te veranderen. Hij wil daartoe een deal sluiten met Vladimir Poetin en dan samen met Xi Jinping. En daarbij zijn Volodymyr Zelensky en de Europese Unie alleen maar lastige obstakels. Maar hoe doe je zoiets? Hoe krijg je de 'grootmachten' bij elkaar en kom je tot een succesvol machtsevenwicht? Daarvan kent de wereldgeschiedenis een zeldzaam en uniek voorbeeld. Het Congres van Wenen in 1814-1815 bracht de allergrootste heersers in Europa en wereldwijd bijeen. Keizers, koningen, de tsaar en hun diplomaten streken neer langs de Donau en palaverden. Een leerzaam en inspirerend relaas. Met tal van waarschuwingen uit de finesses van het spel om de macht.‘Wenen' mondde uit in een groot verdrag dat de kaart van Europa geheel opnieuw tekende. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger vertellen het verhaal van maanden van onderhandelen, spioneren, sjoemelen en ‘the art of the deal'. ***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

De complete tekst plus linkjes en een overzicht van al onze eerdere afleveringen vind je hier***We weten heel veel over Wenen van toen. Dankzij brieven, dagboeken, spionageverslagen en memoires van even kleurrijke als briljante mensen die zich met het machtsspel bemoeiden. Een van hen was een Belgische prins die de lieveling was van de Weense salons, iedereen kende en met ze roddelde: Charles-Joseph de Ligne. Een ander de Pruisische geleerde en ambassadeur Wilhelm von Humboldt, bevriend met Goethe. En de sluwe ras-opportunist Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand, die evengoed koningen en keizers diende als de revolutie.Zo kunnen we op de voet volgen hoe de sleutelfiguur van dit Congres - gastheer Klemens von Metternich - alles zo organiseerde, dat hij de spin in het web was en bleef. Hij zorgde dat het eindresultaat een groot succes werd. Zijn slotverklaring en het verdrag zorgden decennia voor rust en vrede. Daar zijn dan ook belangrijke lessen uit te trekken voor de grootmachten van 2025. Heeft Trump een idee van zo'n wereldwijd machtsevenwicht of zit hij vast in denken over vazallen en het uitruilen van territoria, van Panama tot Groenland en van de Donbas tot Taiwan?Hebben Poetin en Trump basisbeginselen voor een wereldwijd akkoord die leidt tot een nieuwe balans? Metternich had dat en warempel lijkt Xi Jinping nog het meest op hem. Het Congres van Wenen was niet alleen hard werken aan politiek en diplomatie. Het was het ultieme society event. Gekroonde hoofden, kunstenaars, spionnen, charmante dames en journalisten werden door Metternich en het frivole hofleven van Wenen vermaakt met eindeloos entertainment. Bals, opera, banketten, jachtpartijen en salons volgden elkaar maandenlang op. “Hoe loopt het congres? Het congres loopt niet, het danst”, klonk het lachend. Zelfs Beethoven pikte er een graantje van mee! Door een doordachte en innovatieve, rationele organisatie van de onderhandelingen lukte het Metternich om alle neuzen dezelfde kant op te krijgen. De tsaar, het Britse Empire en Habsburg kregen wat zij ambieerden. Pruisen werd een nieuwe grootmacht en ondanks Napoleons nederlaag werd Frankrijk als belangrijk land in ere hersteld. Niemand van de grootmachten bleef gefrustreerd en wraakzuchtig achter. De slachtoffers van destijds zijn verbluffend actueel: Polen, Moldavië, de Balten, Oekraïne, Italië en vooruitstrevende Duitse idealisten. Zo valt er voor ons in 2025 van alles te leren nu de grote wereldspelers als in Wenen toen een nieuw machtsevenwicht lijken te willen opleggen. Heeft de EU haar ambities en rol op orde hierbij? Wie is de Metternich van nu?***Deze aflevering bevat enkele muziekfragmenten: Wellington's Victory (Beethoven / Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Herbert von Karajan), Hoffnungsstrahlen (Joseph Lanner), Der Glorreiche Augenblick (Beethoven)***Verder luisteren487 - Donder en bliksem in het Oval Office484 - Hoe Trump chaos veroorzaakt en de Europeanen in elkaars armen drijft476 – Trump II en de gevolgen voor Europa en de NAVO458 - De gedroomde nieuwe wereldorde van Poetin en Xi455 - De bufferstaat als historische - maar ongewenste - oplossing voor Oekraïne447 - Als Trump wint staat Europa er alleen voor373 - Nederland en België: de scheiding die niemand wilde350 - 100 jaar Henry Kissinger339 – De geopolitiek van de 19e eeuw is terug.

Mass violence comes not only from states, but also from people. By analyzing mass violence as social interaction through survivor accounts and other sources, Conditions of Violence (de Gruyter, 2024) presents understudied agents, aims and practices of direct violence and ways of action of those under persecution. Sound history – examining the noises of mass violence and persecution – is particularly telling about such practices. This volume shows that violence can become socially hegemonic, and some people claim a freedom to kill as a political right. To scrutinize indirect violence, which is often imperialist in character and claims many victims, the book proposes the concept of conditions of violence. These conditions are produced by definable groups of actors and foreseeably harm definable groups (which differs from the anonymous and static ‘structural violence'). This is exemplified in a case study concerning famines in World War II and another on COVID-19 as mass violence. Less global in character, other case studies in this volume deal with Rwanda, Bangladesh/East Pakistan and the Soviet Union. Learn more about your ad choices.

The main objective of Re-Constructing Grassroots Holocaust Memory: The Case of the North Caucasus (de Gruyter, 2020) is to locate the grass roots initiatives of remembering the Holocaust victims in a particular region of Russia which has a very diverse ethnic structure and little presence of Jews at the same time. It aims to find out how such individual initiatives correspond to the official Russian hero-orientated concept of remembering the Second World war with almost no attention to the memory of war victims, including Holocaust victims. North Caucasus became the last address of thousands of Soviet Jews, both evacuees and locals. While there was almost no attention paid to the Holocaust victims in the official Soviet propaganda in the postwar period, local activists and historians together with the members of Jewish communities preserved Holocaust memory by installing small obelisks at the killing sites, writing novels and making documentaries, teaching about the Holocaust at schools and making small thematic exhibitions in the local and school museums. Individual types of grass roots activities in the region on remembering Holocaust victims are analyzed in each chapter of the book. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie speaks with Bruegel's first Director and co-founder, Jean Pisani-Ferry, Senior fellow and co-founder Nicolas Véron, and Board member Caroline de Gruyter on the occasion of the think tank's 20th anniversary. Their conversation takes us on a journey that spans fateful lunches and parliamentary dramas, choosing a location and funding model, and key inspirations from across the pond. Aside from being the story of Bruegel, it doubles as a story of Europe: how have different parts of the continent worked together over the two decades? What was the gap that Bruegel filled? And finally, did you know that one works for a think-tank if one wishes to change the world? 

Reading with an "I" to the Heavens: Looking at the Qumran Hodayot Through the Lens of Visionary Traditions (de Gruyter, 2018) examines the collection of prayers known as the Qumran Hodayot (= Thanksgiving Hymns) in light of ancient visionary traditions, new developments in neuropsychology, and post-structuralist understandings of the embodied subject. The thesis of this book is that the ritualized reading of reports describing visionary experiences written in the first person "I" had the potential to create within the ancient reader the subjectivity of a visionary which can then predispose him to have a religious experience. This study examines how references to the body and the strategic arousal of emotions could have functioned within a practice of performative reading to engender a religious experience of ascent. In so doing, this book offers new interdisciplinary insights into meditative ritual reading as a religious practice for transformation in antiquity. Learn more about your ad choices.

Born in the 13th century, Pietro d'Abano was referred to variously as “the Great Lombard,” “the Conciliator,” and, in at least one case, a “great necromancer.” This scholar and physician faced various troubles relating to heresy or sorcery, and stories swirl around him of calling on demons or magically making spent coins return to his purse.

Is research on antisemitism even necessary in countries with a relatively small Jewish population? Absolutely, as Antisemitism in the North: History and State of Research (de Gruyter, 2019) shows. Compared to other countries, research on antisemitism in the Nordic countries (Denmark, the Faroe Islands, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden) is marginalized at an institutional and staffing level, especially as far as antisemitism beyond German fascism, the Second World War, and the Holocaust is concerned. Furthermore, compared to scholarship on other prejudices and minority groups, issues concerning Jews and anti-Jewish stereotypes remain relatively underresearched in Scandinavia - even though antisemitic stereotypes have been present and flourishing in the North ever since the arrival of Christianity, and long before the arrival of the first Jewish communities.This volume aims to help bring the study of antisemitism to the fore, from the medieval period to the present day. Contributors from all the Nordic countries describe the status of as well as the challenges and desiderata for the study of antisemitism in their respective countries.
