CASSEL, DAVID, German Jewish historian and theologian's name is intimately connected with the founders of Jewish science in Germany: Zunz, Geiger, Steinschneider, Frankel, and others. Cassel studied at the Berlin University, where he attended the lectures of the Orientalist F.H. Petermann, the philosopher Fr. A. Trendelenburg, the philologist Philip Boech, and others. He maintained very friendly relations with Moritz Steinschneider, H. Jolowicz, L. Landshut, and Paul de Lagarde. During the whole time of his university studies he supported himself by giving lessons; and having thus experienced poverty, he later became one of the founders of the Hülfs-Verein für Jüdische Studierende, a society for assisting poor Jewish students in Berlin. His doctor's thesis, "Die Psalmenüberschriften" was published in the "Literaturblatt des Orients," Leipsic, 1840). He received his rabbinical diploma in 1843 from J. J. Oettinger and Z. Frankel, but never accepted a rabbinical position, although he possessed a decided talent for the pulpit, as may be seen from his "Sabbath-Stunden zur Belehrung und Erbauung" (Berlin, 1868), a collection of 52 homilies on the Pentateuch, originally delivered as Sabbath lectures in a school for boys. In 1846 Cassel became principal of an educational institute called the "Dina-Nauen-Stift," in which position he remained until 1879. In 1850 and 1851 he taught religion in Berlin at the congregational school for Jewish girls, and from 1852 to 1867 at the Jewish school for boys. From 1862 to 1873 he was also a teacher at the Jewish Normal School. In 1872, when the Lehranstalt für die Wissenschaft des Judenthums ("Hochschule") was established in Berlin, Cassel was elected one of the docents. Cassel wrote a great number of important books, in addition to many essays for Jewish magazines. Some of his works were written mainly for educational purposes; e.g., the above-mentioned "Sabbath-Stunden" and the following: "Leitfaden für den Unterricht in der Jüdischen Gesch. und Litteratur," Berlin, 1868 (translated into various languages); "Gesch. der Jüdischen Litteratur," 2 vols., Berlin, 1872-73, dealing only with Biblical literature; "Hebräisch-Deutsches Wörterbuch," etc., Berlin, 1871, last ed., 1891; "Lehrbuch der Jüdischen Gesch. und Litteratur," Leipsic, 1879; 2d ed., Berlin, 1896. He edited, or contributed introductions and notes to, several scientific works of great value, including "Cat. Hebräischer Schriften," Latin part by himself, and Hebrew by Rebenstein (Bernstein), Berlin, 1845; D. Conforte's "?ore ha-Dorot," a biographical and bibliographical lexicon of Jewish scholars with introduction and notes, Berlin, 1846; "Zikron Yehudah," responsa of Judah b. Asher, published by Rosenberg, with introduction and notes by Cassel, Berlin, 1846; "Teshubot Geonim admonim," responsa of the earlier Geonim, edited from a Berlin manuscript, with an introduction by J. L. Rapoport, in He-halutz Berlin.

In 1865 he became rabbi at Postelberg, Bohemia, where he remained till 1870, when he went in a similar capacity to Znaim, Moravia, becoming also teacher of French at the Realschule.

Softcover. Condition: New. 1a.ed. en Rey Lear. 24x16 cm. 128 p. Rústica con solapas. Sprache: Spanisch, NUEVO / NEU / NEW. Poco después de que su padre le tache de inútil y le recrimine su afición a no hacer absolutamente nada, el hijo de un molinero decide salir a ver mundo y buscar fortuna con la única compañía de su violín. Así arranca una de las novelas más divertidas del romanticismo alemán, a caballo entre la narrativa picaresca y la comedia de enredo, donde el lector siempre descubre antes que el protagonista el desenlace de las aventuras -la mayoría de ellas amorosas- a las que se enfrenta el inútil. En su arduo peregrinaje, que le llevará hasta Italia y Prusia, aprende con desgana los oficios de jardinero y aduanero, pero sobre todo se reafirmará en su condición de hombre libre y feliz. Catalogado por Peter Boxall y José-Carlos Mainer como uno de los 1001 libros que hay que leer antes de morir, De la vida de un inútil está salpicada de poemas bucólicos y alegres que hicieron las delicias de Hitler, quien consideraba a Eichendorff uno de sus autores predilectos. Ese mismo aliento poético ya había conseguido previamente el interés de compositores como Schumann, Mendelssohn, Brahms o Richard Strauss, que musicaron gran parte de la obra de este autor. Esta nueva traducción, realizada expresamente para esta edición, rescata una novela que pese a su corta extensión forma parte de las grandes obras maestras de la literatura alemana.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Spanning the period between Wittgenstein's return to Cambridge in 1929 and the first version of Philosophical Investigations in 1936, Piotr Dehnel explores the middle stage in Ludwig Wittgenstein's philosophical development and identifies the major issues which engrossed him, including phenomenology, philosophy of mathematics and philosophy of language. Contrary to the dominant perspective, Dehnel argues that this period was intrinsically different from the early and late stages and should not be viewed as a mere transitional phase. The distinctiveness of Wittgenstein's middle work can be seen in his philosophical thinking as it unfolds in a non-linear trajectory: thoughts do not follow upon each other, ideas do not appear sequentially one by one, and insights do not form a straight chain. Dehnel portrays the diffused and multifarious quality of Wittgenstein's middle thinking, enabling readers to form a more comprehensive view of his entire philosophy and acquire a better grasp of his conceptual trajectory, complete with the intricacies and challenges that it poses.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This volume offers detailed comparisons and validations of different methods of assessing groundwater vulnerability (DRASTIC, GOD, PI, RTt, AVI, SINTACS, COP). It contains new aspects of vulnerability assessment for the evaluation of coastal aquifer vulnerability and aquifer vulnerability to methane gas leakage from shale gas wells. The book also contains the results of studies on intrinsic and specific vulnerability assessment (migration of antibiotics and nitrate, groundwatersurface water interaction), with examples of the different national approaches to groundwater vulnerability mapping in Poland, Ireland, Italy and elsewhere. There are 15 chapters derived from two IAH conferences held in Ustron¿, Poland in 2015 and 2018.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Although Michelangelo Antonioni became one of the icons of 'modernist' cinema in the 1960s, his position in the pantheon of great directors has never been quite secure. Unlike his famous contemporaries, such asIngmar Bergman and Luchino Visconti, whose essential contribution to the art of cinema is hardly ever questioned, Antonioni's work has been repeatedly denigrated from many angles for both aesthetic and political reasons. Though the historical importance of some of Antonioni's films as an incarnation of certain attitudes and problems characteristic of the 1960s and 70s is not denied, they are often considered passé, artificial and boring. Contesting prevalent readings, which focus on existential and psychological motifs involving anxiety and the malady of sentiments, this book offers a re-evaluation of Antonioni's most important films interpreted as political cinema engaged with issues which are still crucial in the 21st century. Far from being politically neutral, Antonioni's oblique and 'abstract' approach makes possible the prising open and devaluation of the morally and politically constrictive 'organic' narrative structures. HIs approach overthrows the primacy of character and plot, on the one hand, by showing them to be emanations of the spectral materiality of capital, and, on the other hand, by allowing for an opening into the utopian dimension, implying engagement in the rethinking of our attachments to the world.
